Honestly i dont understand how this will make "a whole new mod" i just want to add a simple and boring reskin for the units that are shared in commmon for all the civs.
I am not talking of restructure anything, is really that hard to have a pikeman or archer or whatever that look like the civ you are playing instead of share the same graphic among all the civs?
I mean maybe i cant explain what i wanna say thanks to my terrible english.
All i want is when i choose to play lets say mordor:
See orcs and stuffs that looks like mordor and no other civ looks like that, right now everybody can make some regular units that share the same graphics visual with all the civs.
I dont want to change techs and other things or what the units can do or replace graphics that are already done and working good on the mod, i just wanna change the way they look.
This way it will not be like aok that only the wonder and unique unit make the difference of a civilization.
I will give you the example for what i plan to do in the future when i get tired of lotr.
Take original aok, lets see if you play with france or england they share the same buildings and units but have only an unique unit and a wonder and of course different techs to make them "different".
What i want to do is give them "only visual" unique graphics, so yes everybody will use a pikeman or archer like you usually do in aok, but they will look like a french pikeman with his own tabard and colors... jesus friken language barrier.
So to be honest i dont know where the problem is and why all the negativity.
Idk if the problem is convert them to .slp or if the problem is to add the new .slp to the data i could learn and help too, maybe you guys are afraid that i dont finish them? you have 44 units finished in the dropbox already.
44 new unique units and i dont even posted all the sets!
There is no other mod that have some many units graphics and the "new stuffs" that people offer are usually copy/paste stuffs, civ III mods, graphics taken from other old games or old recycled unused mods.. I even saw some of my old graphic pack crappy buildings or copy/paste units being used and offered as new lol!.
There are lots of new more graphics coming, i am 100% sure that somebody else doing a TC will recive all this graphics with open arms instead of complain.
Just to finish and dont talk about this again, I dont see where the problem is but like i said the graphics are yours use it in the way you want i am not in charge of anything i am not even in the dev team so i am not forcing to do anything, this is more like a debt that i have after i quit this project long time ago, i just wanna finish this and move on.
