I added more unit images on Units_32, but then in the game, soon as I reach modern era (new Settler and Worker image) it thows off the settler and worker images!
How can I add more units without having these problems!:(
Can some one help me? Can someone include a unit_32 pcx image that has no problems, then I will insert my units into the pcx.
Help please, :cry:

Thanks.
 
The last 8 "special" icons must be moved over the same amount of spaces as the number of units you've added, even if you've re-used some existing icons for some of the units you added. So for example, if you add 5 units, those last 8 icons must be moved over 5 spaces, even if you have not added 5 custom icons to the units_32 file (re-used some existing ones instead). So you might have some blank spaces in between the privateer icon and those last 8. I don't know why the game handles the icons that way, but with some cutting and pasting those icons will appear properly in the game.
 
I have made proper change, (I spent about 4 hours to fix this problem!!! and still problems!:mad: ), If I check the ajdustments but editing a saved game (and thats what I am doing)
images are thrown off. Does that mean I Have to start all over playing again?
Is there any solution to this problem, any utility?
Help!:cry:

The old savegame just read the latest files be it animations or units_32.pcx so just bear with the missing/mixed up icons and finish the current game. :)
 
Thanks Dark,

I kind I figured it out, I have a good game goin...Don't want to lose it...

:D

But I think I will start all over because now there is a fix to the colors for the civilaztions and as you know how many times I tried to get that nazi flag on the Stormtrooper's arm "Red". Now I can safely change colors between Roman and German without crashing!:cool:

Take care buddy!
 
I put here an excellent work from SpencerH that allow you ta add more units icons than the game allow...
