I assume its the same as warband and its mods in the fact that you just press ctrl + e to quit the editor and it asks you to save it... Unless PW is different that is to regular warband I dont see why you should be having a problem.

no doing that doesnt save, in PW you just had to quit the editor to save but not in this napoleanic type mods and i havent found any guides to help me

It says "You have made changes to the objects. Do you want to save the changes?"........and you click "Yes, save."

i know what your talking about but that doesnt work theres something more to save it. it undoes all changes when i restart up mount and blade

Then there is something wrong with your module its not different to other mods.

We would like to present a new update for the greek & egyptian units, which will get a new look.
FSE modeller Admiral is supporting us with the greek units, with some new helmets made by himself.

Corinthian Helmet variations

 

[jepekula]

Looks fine and dandy, but didn't the corinthian helmets fall out of fashion by 5th century BC?

 

[DanAngleland]

Is there a regular time when this mod is very active? I am not interested in joining a clan, but I would love to join in a large public session.

Corinthian helmets ? is this mod ahistorical?

 

[Slawtering]

Most Greek (and the outlying areas) helmets are based upon the Corinthian be them minor differences  to totally different helmets. I would'nt put it far past the truth for Egyptians to use them, still not sure if its historical though.

The one on the left is the Illyrian helmets and the ones on the right are corinthian. Both were out of style by the 4th century. That's a nice helmet they made though, however it's one of the older forms of the Corinthian helmet without even any cutouts for the more mobile tactics of the period.

I had an evolution picture for the Late Republican helmets as well but I deleted it=/.

 

[Omnipotente]

Corinthian helmets were gone by around Peloponnesian wars 431-404 BC.

 

[Willhelm]

Well to be honest the man creating them for us seems to have mixed sources a little, while the Corinthian helmet survived into 100 AD it had changed considerably from that design, but he is also making some more helmets which were definitely used by the Ptolemaics. However that helmet is such good quality i think we'll have to find a way to fit it in, I'm sure a few were used still.

Who cares about historical if it looks good...

Most soldiers back then weren't professional soldiers though, hoplites especially, so I don't see why they wouldn't use it if they couldn't get anything else. They probably had a huge mash of helmets drifting around that would be passed from father to son.

For 400 or so years. Okay, it all makes sense now.

Helmets are fairly resilient and I doubt people were regularly throwing away helmets, or you'd get the occasional odd person who wanted a Corinthian helmet rather than the latest and greatest piece of metal to stick on their head. People don't always want the newest thing, they want something retro.

For 400 years dude? Don't try to rationalize it. Just be glad it looks good.

Spoiler: Ptolemaic Reformed Armies 168-30 BC (1)

Spoiler: Ptolemaic Reformed Armies (2)

Spoiler: Thorakitai

Spoiler: Machimoi (Native Egyptian Infantry)

Spoiler: Centurion of Cleopatra's Bodyguard; Actium 31BC

Spoiler: Battle of Actium 31BC

Spoiler: Helmets

Hope this is useful.

I'll be placing more material eventually.

I do like the corithian helmet for greeks, But for Egypt????
Since they were a Succesor state of Alexander... they had Macedonian like equipment, and the Corithian helmet does not fit in to that at all.

Good stuff, our Ptolemaics looks the same. We have a mix of Greek style and Egyptian style troops, with some varied mercenaries, persians, nubians and arabs.
