Spoiler length :
Yeah, I figured it was those two articles exactly that you were referencing. I ran across those several yuears ago and was quite confused for some time. You'll even see other pages that apparently refer to the first article word for word.

Keshik was actually derived from those 3 words in parentheses at the beginning of the kheshig article. Also you are redirected to that article from searching for keshik (in small print under header of article). I actually wish it were the name for the light cavalry, as I have been searching for both the names of either the heavy or light cavalry without any success. I think both types would make excellent alternate UU's. In fact bakuel's mongol heavy cavalry is spot on as far as accuracy (maybe alittle too shiny though, so maybe it would make a better baghadur). Irregardless though I guess all this really has no bearing on what unit you should use. I just hate all the misleading info in wikipedia. Who knows how many times Ive been duped by them.

Damn wikipedia.

Yeah I failed miserably at that. In fact my attempt led me to believe some falsehoods about unit making that set me back quite a ways, until mechaerik enlightened me. Its a funky situtation with the parachute. I can twist around just about any animation and mix and match to where a unit can have any combination of other units animations at the same time. But that parachute is puzzling.

I'm beginning to wonder how Firaxis did that blasted parachute.

@Mechaerik: here is a way more 'mongol' looking horse archer that you could use. Way more fitting of the keshik and a UU in general, than using a default model. I have no idea who made it or where it came from, possibly one of bernie's creations.

Cool, thanks. I'll use this model as a Keshik and the original Keshik model as the new uu.

Sucks about the spy paratrooper though, but hopefully one day the dream can be realized. Perhaps just using the paratrooper animations but with the spy model could be a compromise though if that makes it easier.

I'd also like to restate Madman's request for a Zebra skin for horse models. If anyone has one or knows a mod that might have one that would be awesome. Thanks.

I don't know, where he got it, but magic666 has a Zebra rider in the germam Lord of The Rings mod (first picture here, download here).
 
I may have spoke too soon on that one, although apparently I thought the same thing about Giraffe Archer (by AlazkanAssassin) and apparently I was wrong. I looked at the unit (which I assume is the Haradrim Horseman, since it has Zebra textures in it) in NifSkope and it didn't look like the Zebra was showing up. But I really wanted to use the Zebra for the Zulu Chariot and Knight, so this unit wouldn't even work as a conversion unit for me.

If it wouldn't be to much trouble I was wondering if I could post the current Zulu Knight and Chariot files I have, and if someone would be nice enough to try and convert whatever Zebra unit is in the Haradrim Horseman file into the Chariot and Knight files. I hope that made sense...
 
Here are the files, good luck and godspeed! :goodjob:

EDIT: NOW here are the files (sorry). I wrote a little text file in there for you to clarify what I would like, but do whatever you can.
 
Who the fluff made this unit!?

It's got an entirely new skeleton, it's rigged oddly....


So far i have managed to get it into the chariot, but I'm wrestling with it. Maybe it would be best to just completely start from scratch and just rerig the zebra.
 
Whatever you think is best, I can't even SEE the Zebra in NifSkope, and the only reason I assumed it was there was due to the texture. And I encountered a similar issue with the Giraffe Archer. Whatever you can do is fine.
 
Actually it IS there. You just aren't looking hard enough. It's just REEEAAALLLLYYY small. Turn off the Nodes and Axis display and you might see it.

I think its an import, like from EE2 or something. It has several LOD meshes like those models usually start of with. I oddly enough shows up at the right size in sceneviewer (except totally black), yet theres is no difference in scale:confused:. Either way youre probably right about starting from scratch being the best course of action.
 
O__O Can we get some Battlefield 2142 Units? That would be GREAT if it could be put in something like Rise of Mankind! ^__^ Then, you'd have some more realistic Hi-Tech Units, not to mention some new Mechs. ^__^

O__O Btw, the Titan would also be a Godsend! Does anyone else share my enthusism?

P.S. I was thinking about doing it, but does anyone know what programs are required? I'm getting frustrated trying to find them, PLZ PM ME IF YOU KNOW!!!!!!

@mechaerik; any progress on those Zulu units?

Well, I managed to rig the zebra into the chariot, but it doesn't animate. It just stands still. I didn't really notice it until i looked really closely, and saw the legs don't move. When the chariot dies though, its a lot more noticable, because the zebra continues standing there. It's probably best to just rerig the Zebra. I know how to do it, but you, as a LH maker, know thats a tedious process.


I think the knight would probably be easier, as i could just use the current setup.
 
Please, I'm getting on my knees here. Could someone make some Star Wars units?
Heres the requests list.

Look the names up on wookiepedia if you don't know what they are. Any Takers?
 
I know Star Wars fans have a pretty "detailed" knowlege of what Star Wars ships and soldiers etc. look like. But that list is extremely long as Flying Pig said. I would try and replace as many of these as possible with existing Sci-Fi art (which there is a lot of) and focus on a few important ones for request purposes.

Or you might be better off learning to make units yourself.
