Unit requests thread

[Jwitti]

Could somebody please tell me how difficult it is to make an entire civ-specific unit-style in which they're all pig-like beings (Orson Scott Card mod)

 

[The_J]

...if you have all the needed graphics...
...then it's just boring XML work, will take quite some time.

 

[Jwitti]

No, I have no graphics whatsoever. I don't mind XML work since it's pretty much all I can do by myself

 

[Hydromancerx]

click me (rather at the bottom).

Thanks do you know where i can find a Gyrocopter/Autogyro?

IF not could someone make one?

 

[The_J]

AFAIK there's no such unit around.
Maybe a downscaled helicopter might do the job .

 

[Hydromancerx]

Do you know if a Jivaro Headhunter unit has been made?

 

[The_J]

when I throw "Jivaro Headhunter" into google image search, I already get at the first page an image from Conan the barbarian...so no idea what this unit is supposed to look like.

Basically a South American native with a staff with a shrunken head on it. Maybe even some shrunken heads on a belt or holding in their hand.

 

[The_J]

AFAIK there's nothing with a head on a pole around.
But some south american spearman we should have around.
mmhh...don't really think that this or this fit that much .
Maybe just a less dark version of an african spearman, e.g. a more brown and less black version of this unit?

I would like some RCAF units like f-18s, f-35s and b-2s with the RCAF Roundel

Maybe you could find something in Realism Invictus.

 

[Hydromancerx]

I am requesting a Petard. Doesn't have to look exactly like that, as long as you can tell its a Petard.

Maybe you could find something in Realism Invictus.

No luck.

I almost feel like this is something I should be able to do by now, but for some reason I can't figure it out and rather than PM a bunch of people I figure I'd just post here.

I am in the process of creating some Batavii and Chatti units to use as an ancient Dutch set in my mod. I am using parts from other units created here by CFC members, mostly Bakuel actually, and I can't seem to import certain units. I keep getting "AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'name' " message in my Blender console whenever I try to import these units. Not sure if you need to know which ones they are specifically, but if you do they are the Celtic Archer and Mongol Warrior.

If anyone could explain to me why this is happening or at least a way around it that would be awesome.

Thanks.

I think the NifImporter for Blender has problems with some unusual nodes. For example, the "NiBillboardNode" that is often used for arrows is one of those nodes. But sometimes the content of the normal nodes can also cause problems. Best try to remove as much stuff as possible with NifSkope before you try again to import those units.

Can Someone do the Lahti L-39 also called "The Elephant Gun"?

Also @ Saibotlieh, is there a good tutorial for nif swaps?

That didn't work. Damn. Thanks for the help.

Here you can find a link to some explanation I've given some time ago.

Hm, can you upload the units in question? Maybe I can find a solution then.

 

[The Capo]

Its cool, I just imported the vanilla warrior and made it from scratch. Thanks though.

 

[Dumanios]

A while ago I got a request from Farsight for an Equestrian Royal Guard. I've made a bit, but for some reason I'm tired of making it, so I'm turning it over to someone else in hopes that someone else can make it better than I probably would. I do request I at least have partial credit, when this unit does get released officially.

 

[Hydromancerx]

Could someone please combine the body of an airplane with the blades of a helicopter to make an autogryro?
