Unit requests thread

[snafusmith]

Well I'm finishing up ChazMod 2.0 (for Warlords) but need a few units - if anyone knows if any of these units exist, the help would be appreciated:

- Torpedo Bomber (Avenger, Kate, Jill come to mind)
- ASW Aircraft (P-3 Orion ?)
- Surveillance Aircraft (U-2 or SR-71 Blackbird)
- Anti-Tank Gun (German PaK-38 or Soviet 76mm perhaps?)
- SAM (ground based SAM missile on launcher such as SA-2 etc)

I need a slew of additional buttons too, but I've been getting into that lately, they are quite easy and fun to make using just Gimp and DDS Converter. Gimp is one heck of a nice program, once you survive the learning curve.

-Avenger
-P3, U2, SR-71 nope.
-AT Gun, yes - Asioasioasio has made one (at least the model) but it is unreleased.
-SA-2 no, SA-9 yes. I've made one but the model/texture is only 80% done. I also have plans for the ZSU-23-4 Shilka, M42 Duster and Hummer Avenger.

Thanks for the link, snafu!

It's madness at work lately, but I hope to find the time to release v2.0 of ChazMod...soon...that's all I can promise right now, 'soon' /grimace

I need a unit dressed in civilian clothing (white shirt, blue jeans would be best) straped with explosives. I am going to use him in my civ mod as a terrorist.

Hi everybody,

I'm looking for a Mamluk Knight. In fact only a new skin of the knight is enough IMO. These guys were the true rulers of Egypt from 1250 to 1517, were those who make the Franks leaving the Holy Lands and above all were those won stopped the Armies of Gengis Khan.

As the T-62 has no animations and also a sound problem, there is a need for an early cold war tank for the Soviet Union such as T-55 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-55).

M-60 Patton (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M60_Patton) and Leopard 1 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leopard_tank) would also be nice to have.

I've already made the T-55, M60, and Leopard 1. Check out the Modern Warfare Mod link in my signature.

good to hear! But the T-55 and the Leopard1 are not out already, aren't they? When you will release them? By the way, are we allowed to use your units for our own mods/scenarios? Anyway, I'm looking forward to see these great units!

The next addition to Modern Warfare will be out within about a month or so. I'm setting my goal of 30 new units added per update, and right now I'm at about 15-20 finished. You are aloud to use any of my units without question for any personal mod. However, if you post them in a public mod please let me know before hand. I don't do that because you actually need my permission to post them, I just like to see how they're being used.

Hey guys,

just wondering if there is a Spy unit that has a terrorist graphic? If not, is there a suicide bomber style unit?

Are there any missile units like in Civ III?

I have a request, i need two "man units" :
space marine trooper (ideas in alien2 movie, space hulk, WH40k...)
and clone

future aegis
future submarine
and future "big war boat" i called "leviathan", that can defend submarine cities...

 

[Halidon55]

I've seen a few civ iv ship builders, but I haven't seen a PT boat yet. Is anyone designing a PT boat that can fire torpedos? I'm looking for something like PT 109.

I noticed that there is not a single european strategic bomber for the cold war era. I think this one would be nice: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avro_Vulcan

Already on my list and fully researched. It's just waiting for the right moment.

For all those who make 3D animated units, these are units i need, PLS!!! All are riding units.

 

[ahmedvonmuneeb]

Hello, I'm no good with 3D models, texture packs and what not so I'd really appreciate it if someone could make me a bersaglieri model for the Italian civ I'm working on these days. It's actually rather simple if you work with the current infantry model as a base. You'd only need to add a couple of plumes to the hat and modify the torso a bit. I'd really appreciate it.

[[WTN]Manhattan]

I found there is still not a single good Vietcong unit. Is somebody planning to make one? Would be great to have...

 

[GarretSidzaka]

Here is the new thread

 

[chandlerdion]

Can anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? I'm making my first efforts at modding in Civ4 and I've run into an obstacle.

I want to increase the movement of the units in my mod. For example, I want warriors to move 3 tiles per turn instead of 1.

Here is where I went on my computer: firaxis/sid meier's civ4/mods/(my mod)/assets/xml/units/unitinfo. There I went through line for line and increased the "moves" accordingly. I saved, confirmed that the changes were saved, brought up a game to try it out....and my initial warrior was still moving only 1 square at a time. What am I missing?

The other minor changes I made in my initial modding efforts took affect (i.e. I created a "superleader" with all 8 personality traits!). And after all of the hours I've spent reading in these forums, I think I've developed a pretty good understanding of xml files. But obviously I'm missing something here.

Please help.

Dion out.
