Problems Adding Unit Graphics

[Duque d'Caxias]

I've got some time to mod Civ 5 now and I'm finding some problems in adding unit graphics. I know this must be a very basic issue but it is really impeding my progress. So, any help would be very welcome.

For the sake of example I tried to add Redcoat graphics to my mod called Tests. Following bellow (in the .jpeg images) the way I configured Modboddy.

After all I saved the changes, rebuilt the mod, ran Civ 5 - Mods - Browse Mods - Tests - etc... And what I've got? SPEARMEN.

Tried the process dozens of times, studied LoneGamer "Merging New Unit Graphics Into 1 Modd", and many other tutorials but with no results. The question is: WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

You don't use OnModActivated/UpdateDatabase for anything other than GameData XML. The art define files are not gamedata. For those, you use the VFS system instead; right-click on the files, select Properties, and at the bottom will be "Import into VFS", defaulting to false. Change it to True for those files.

That easy? Good, one step forward but wait... the game is crashing. It goes to the end of the set up process and stop. The cursor goes round and round but the game doesn't begin. And now what?

Exception: System.NullReferenceException ???!!!

OK, let's work a little more... Any idea?

set VFS = true for the unit files too (fxsxml, gr2, dds).
