Unit requests thread

The Capo said:
I really don't even need the anims to be the same, just the units themselves. I know they are extremely similar to, and in many cases exactly the same as, some civ IV units that already exist. But not all of them, particularly some of the Egyptian and Roman ones. I just want them for a mod. Hopefully you can help me out. Thanks a lot.

AFAIK Danrell converted those CivV units from Civ IV units
Are there really enough changes he made which makes it worth to reconvert them?

I dont know about the regular acient units but there are hundreds of WW2 tanks he released, and only around 5-10% of them I have seen throughout cIV. There are definatly new ones unless I missed a mod with hundreds of units :lol:
 
I did have specific ones in mind, from his Roman set I wanted both archers, both swordsmen, both horsemen and the knight. Pretty much every Japanese unit (they are similar to the Civ IV set, but they are not the same). From Spain I would like the Composite bowman. From Egypt I would like the Composite bowman and longbowman, Pikeman, Horseman and Knight.

Use whatever animations you deem appropriate, if you don't know what to use I would use Immortal anims for the horsemen that use spears, egyptian archer anims for the archers, longbowman for the longbowman, pikeman for the pikeman (or maybe Holkan anims, use your judgement), and cataphract anims for the knight.

I know, those are a lot of units so I won't be upset if you can't or are unwilling to do all of them. Thanks in advance. :goodjob:

Both Roman horsemen look much more convincing than what we have now. At least one of them would be very welcome in Pie's Ancient Europe, because for unknown reasons the existing Roman horsemen either are too heavily armed, too innacurate, too generic, too boring, or all of that, but Danrell's are nice!

@WWII-tanks: Realism Invictus has lots and lots of them.

Like i said before, i can't do animations. if they happen to work with other civ iv animations then great otherwise for animations you are on your own:crazyeye:
 
That part's pretty easy, it is similar to making LHs where you place the model over the bones/nodes/skeleton and then assign (or "rig") the parts to the nodes. Not very difficult at all, this would be a good opportunity to learn if you want, but if you just want to convert them over and send them to me then I'll do it myself.

Let me know in a PM so I can send you my e-mail. ;)
 
That's funny. I searched for all three before posting (it's why I posted; I couldn't find them) and I didn't see those. I must be going blind. :lol: Hmm...but still no Virginia-class. Well, maybe someday.

Hey guys, I kinda had two requests. The first one was for those Pictish units that were being created a while back. What ever hapened to those?

Secondly, I was wondering if anybody was willing to create some Inuit units? Or something very close to that. I saw a thread asing for an Inuit civ and it made me think that I wanted to help him (and myself) make one. Anyone up to the challenge?
 
I second the pict units! I need them to full complete my mods unit art
 
I plan to include slavery as an aspect of the Columbian Exchange in my mod.

Does anyone know if there is a black slave unit or alternately, would anyone be willing to reskin an existing slave unit?
 
In Civilization 5, the Danish Civilization has the Ski Infantry.. perhaps it's better to have some of this wonderful unit in Civilization 4 and a better addition to the game.. maybe all you need to do is to add ski graphics below the infantry or fusiliers feet... PLEASE can someone make this unit... there are lots of Napoleonic infantries created in the game and adding skis will be a pleasure to have this unit in Civ4...:)
 
Hello.
Would anyone be interested in creating a mahout (elephant worker unit)? India's uu makes me uncomfortable, I am going to try and see if I can rework it.
 
Nice idea. I am afraid, someone has to change the animations for this, that's nothing I can do. But perhaps I would use it, too.
