Adding Indigenous or Pirate Units....

[ZukaZ]

Hello.

 

I have been trying for two days now to enable indigenous and pirate units for the Rebels and Empire. And so far, without success. I was wondering if anyone would have any ideas for me? Please?

[Yesh]

I changed the starting units in conquest to add the imperial guard, bothan,sullustans, mon cal, geonosians, gungans etc.

 

The file you want is groundcompaniesinigenous.xml

 

Things like Imperial_Elite_Company should be the unit names.

 

then just put them under starting units in conquest in the campaignsingleplayer.xml file

If you want to make the Imperial guard buildable, what would you do?

[Yesh]

First take open up groundcompaniesempire, groundcompaniesindigenous and specialstructures.

 

This is a basic rebel unit (edited to mon cal):

find Imperial_Guard_Company in the indigenous file. Look at all the areas I named moncal. Find those for the guard and imput them over mon cal.

 

Then copy that whole thing, and paste in the empire ground file. Then go to special structures, find the e_ground_barracks (something like that not exact)

and where you see the buildable units add in imperial_guard_company

 

I'll actually be making the mod tomorrow so if you want to wait and download, do that if the explanation sounded confusing.
