How to change the default walk formation

[hoodycn]

Hi everyone, I'm trying to change all units' default walk formation from colum to line, just like SOWWL. I think that I have to edit unitglobal.csv, but I only find one in the Louisiana Tigers Mod which only have one row. Can someone tell me where the original unitglobal.csv is located? Or there are other ways to modify it?

Hi hoodycn

Yes you need to edit unitglobal.csv. You'll find it in the SDK, in the Logistics folder.

Good luck

Another question: I tried to edit the weapon names in rifle.csv and artillery.csv, edited weapon ID in OOBs as well, but when I put them in mods folder and run the game, the weapon simpely showed "NOT FOUND", what's the issue?

I think that that means that you haven't identified the new weapons if you changed the names of any of the default ones.

In the SDK expand that directory and search for the folder named Text .

Inside of that folder is a file called sowstr.db

That file can be opened by Notepad . Basically it is a notepad file just saved adding the prefix of .db

In one of your Mod folders create a new folder and name it Text

Then create a notepad file called sowstr.db.

Place something like the Example below in it with the names of the weapons that you changed.


IDS_ARSN_1858_PATTERN_ENFIELD_BRITAIN,1858 Pattern Enfield (Britain)
IDS_ARSN_20LB_PARROTT_CSA,20-Pounder Parrott (CSA)

That should solve the problem.
