British Troops

Post by 9thBtnMOS »

I seem to remember seeing British troop graphics (flags also?) somewhere in the files but I can't locate them. I believe they were the 24th Foot? I used them in a modified OOB in the past. I just can't remember how to find them and use them in an OOB. Thanks

9th,

Yes. 24th. South Wales Borderers. You can find them in the SDK - Logistics Folder. Their heading is "BZ"

It was the Zulu Mod figures. Then check the Graphics folder for the sprites.

I got the British sprites in the game. Very cool. I ran in to trouble when I found some British flags. I could not load them into the game. The flag was in the gfx file but they are missing something. Thanks for any info.

9th,

There are no British flags in the original SOWGB game. All Brit Flags will come from the NapMod and/or RebBugler's fabulous NapFlagMod. You'd have to transfer them from one side of the game (NapMod)to the other (SOWGB). It's not hard, but we can help if you can't get it done.

I found these in the SDK/Logistics/gfx. Obviously I need more data. Is there an easy way to do what you suggest? I do not have the Nap mod. If I have to get it...where can I do that? and then what should I do with it? Thanks

9th,

Really? Wow! I don't have those listings. I just went thru ALL the flag graphics files. There are no Brit flags in there at all. Your best bet is to get RebBuglers NapFlagMod. It's in the Napoleanic Section of the Modification section of the Forum. Just scroll down until you find it. Download it and then post back. We'll help you from there.

Thanks for the help. I could not find RedBugler's Napflagmod, but I did download the Road to Wagram mod. I see a lot of cool flags in the gfx.csv file.Can I get it from there?

Thank you Chamberlain, you are all so helpful. I now have RedBugler's NapFlagMod. What's the first step to getting the British flags into the SOW game?
