@GetAssista, Barabas

@Dunde

ok I usually hate when I die in battle cause im the best troop in the battlefield, except of course, when I take a random fatal rhodok bolt to the knee.

So I would like to know if there is a easily implemented script that will allow me to (after death) take command of any alive troop I still have on the battlefield, that way, as long as someone lives, I can play.

Has these been done before? I have heard of death cams, but that is not what I want.

Thanks a lot

okay, so everytime i change a whole troop tree, i get a module error, what are the files i have to change when I change the troop trees and rename the troops?
I am using the module system

 

[Specialist]

Are you changing the troop ID? Eg: trp_german_machinegunner rather than trp_swadian_crossbowman?

I think so, i use the morgh's module editor when editing troops..

 

[Specialist]

That's the source. The MS has many occurrences of each troop name within itself, and if you change one ID name, you have to change all of the old ID's in the MS to the new

okay, but where are all they located? (in which files?)

Halp! :c

Multiplayer, right? If yes, you probably forogt to assign some of the items (The weapons) for these troops to the troop.

	  (call_script, "script_multiplayer_set_item_available_for_troop", "itm_scale_gauntlets", "trp_sarranid_mamluke_multiplayer"),

Like this. You need to do that for your troops and their items too, if you didn't. Sounds like you didn't, at least that is the reason for me why items sometimes disappear on MP troops.

Sorry, but a stupid question
Which slot is used to determine whether a npc is of noble birth?

 

[Mammoet]

Is it possible to use multi-meshes for vertex animations? Like for example a scabbard, with the scabbard and the sword being separate meshes.

 

[Specialist]

Yes

 

[Caba`drin]

the troop slot slot_lord_reputation_type with the values that begin with lrep_ in module_constants

Is there any difference between

"trp_indian_invader_1"

and

trp_indian_invader_1

Do the quotation marks actually do anything?

Quotes prevent you from needing to import from ID_troops when you use the reference.
My understanding is that is the only difference.

My troops only have starter items (free)

How can I add more items?
