I was wondering how to do that. I have some interesting images of soldiers that would look very good into a mod, but I don't know how to convert them into the style of World Conqueror 3, or at least how to replace the old models with these and actually make them work? Or, at least, is it possible? I am not reffering to using recycled models from other games of the franchise, but to create completely new ones. Thank you for answer! This is an example of unit I'd like to use: Attachments:

I believe that you need to change the images featured in army_infantry.png However I don't think it is easy to add more than there are right now (about 10), if possible at all... Units are very complex in these regard... they are made of: Head, body, arm, leg, shoe, gun (and shovels ) and gun fire effect

edit army_infantry.png
You can find what each appendage uses in one of the .xml files, I can tell you which one exactly if I knew what game you wanted to mod.

Well, I wanted to create (or give the mod idea) Rise on Nationalism/Nations for European War 4, and help Redhoi in creating many new models for each nation in his WW1 mod for World Conqueror 3.

I want to know how BJ did the soldiers from the WW1 mod. If you look closer, they look to be very simplistic done, with little details. How can I do the same thing? It would help a lot.
Off course, I'm talking about European War 4 texturing.

Hobo Joe , so how do I modify the orginal sodier from European War 4, such as in BJ's WW1 mod? Just open the file containing the images with an app such as Photoshop or GIMP and modify the wished model (colours, maybe details on the soldier)? I want to learn creating/modifying them by myself.

Not him, but yeah that's how you do it. Make sure you don't use Paint and use Gimp. Pictures with blank backgrounds will be turned white when Paint is used. Btw, you can cut out a part (like a head or what not) and paste it down (overexisting ones or on blank spaces). And make sure you use the xml. It's where the coordinates and part sizes are. Make sure to modify it when you apply texture changes. Btw, the parts that you place must have no background. Imagine Uruk hai head and a background. In game, you might see part of the black background with the head (depending on how you modify the xml, just make sure you modify the xml to fit the part. Anything over the necessary amount is, well, unnecessary) Sorry for any redundant parts, just want you to understand the basics.

I started a little experiment for my mod, Lord of Middle Earth. I want to onow how did BJ add more models of atmoured cars and machineguns in his mods. I want to use that in order to change the ACs with trolls, Mumakils and chariots, while the machineguns will be switched to pikemen. I dont want these units look the same for all nations, but I don't know how to add more variety. A bit of help, please?
