The Segmentata is a bit light color, is there a way to change that?

The vanilla version, the praetorian officer is missing his black plume for some reason?

@zekehubert I use a mod for that, its called "Added More General Units."

I absolutely love this mod. There is nothing like watching these guys absolutely SHRED so rebel plebs. I just have one request. I don't know if its possible or not, but could you add the Praetorian Cavalry as an option for the general? Its kind of weird having an awe inspiring Praetorian cavalry unit charging into battle next to a scruffy looking Legatus. Thanks for the hard work and effort you put into making a quality mod.

make a stand alone version bro this mod takes up any file space for my praetorians and praetorian cavs making any of my mods to the vanilla units crash.
GaLaHaT007 31 May, 2020 @ 8:04am 
can you make standalone unit version of this mod?

@Parzival Thx for the Info. Now it should work again :)

since the update 25.3 the game crashes when entering of a battle.

Beautiful mod and skins......is it possible the release of this mod like an addon unit? (Could you release that like a cavalry and infantry unit addon without replacing the skins of existing units?)..Thanks in advance for the response....cheers

@Hoegni Your manly feminin side?... well whatever you may call your accurateness side ;D ...
But I fear it's no decal (because I didn't understand how to use them in the right way and make it look good). Maybe I'll reconsider doing them with a republic shield. Besides you are offcourse free to adapt the mod.

@Subutai This looks also very nice, good job. Too sad you didn't released them. I definitely would have subscribed to it!

@SirCartonDeWiart Well I think a big part of the fascination of Rome or in this case its Praetorians can be attributed to the projection screen they deliver us for our phantasy ;-)

What is it with this Praetorian feteshization in TW community, they mostly just assassinated people and were corrupt. There are barely if any instances of them doing something "EPIC!!!".

This is my Praetorian. Obviously there's quite a bit of influence here from the Gladiator Praetorians. Though I added a crest on mine.

AMAZING!!
Mr. Bluecoat 23 Mar, 2020 @ 8:48am 
Beautiful. <3
Vlady the Impaler 23 Mar, 2020 @ 8:15am 
lol Totally understandable, my manly feminin side took over on the aesthetic part ! x)
Didn't look into your packfile, but is it just a decal so I can swap it on to make a rep scutum (personal use ofc) ? ;)
Illusive  [author] 22 Mar, 2020 @ 6:15pm 
@Hoegni I thought about giving them the republican scutum as the shape is indeed closer to the shields from the movie. But its big shield boss, or whatever it is that stretches over its whole surface, made me decide against it ;)
Illusive  [author] 22 Mar, 2020 @ 6:01pm 
Thank you all, I'm happy that so many of you can enjoy this :)

@Subutai Well I think many modders startet this way and I'm no exception. Modding the work of another modder makes it easier to lern it step by step without being overwhelmed by all these tables, numbers and the overall filestructure :D

I understand that it is a lot of work. It took me many hours until I was satisfied enough to release it ;-). Nevertheless I'm curious how your Praetorians would look like :)

@GetSomeFriends Actually it is pretty easy to customize the color by modifying the units_variant_colours table. Simply get yourself Rusted PackFile Manager and start modding yourself. There are a lot of good tutorials :)
Vlady the Impaler 22 Mar, 2020 @ 3:49pm 
Noooooo! You gave them the wrong shield xD It's supposed to be the republican scutum !
Amazing nevertheless ! :D
GetSomeFriends 22 Mar, 2020 @ 8:31am 
I know this kind of defeats the purpose....but could you make the same mod again but this time replace the purple with the classic roman red? Great mod btw!
oujosh29 21 Mar, 2020 @ 6:59am 
They look amazing. Revitalized Rome for me. Well done!
al-Mamluk 20 Mar, 2020 @ 3:25pm 
Regardless, your Praetorians are still really well done.
al-Mamluk 20 Mar, 2020 @ 3:23pm 
To be honest? My version wasn't standalone. Its something I added into someone else's named roman legions mod, reskinning and rebalancing the units initially for my own personal use. Though later I added a few units of my own since it was easier at the time to work in existing tables rather than having to figure out which tables to add and edit on my own. I've thought about posting my mod but since a lot of the work isn't even mine, I'm concerned about the possibility of running afoul of the original creator.

I suppose I could detach the Praetorians into their own standalone mod, but a lot of their variant models are scattered across like three different pack files and I just don't have the time these days to isolate the specific variant models or table entries for the specific officers and unit colours.

Those Praetorians look amazing!!!
Illusive  [author] 20 Mar, 2020 @ 8:32am 
Thanksm but why didn't you realeased your version? That could have spared me some time ;-P

I took the Screenshots with the DEI-Version where the Units walk around with the Pilum by default. So i'm not sure but I think they put additional animations in their mod to achieve this. In the DEI land units table under Man Animation it is written rome_man_sword_shield_legionary while it is rome_man_sword_shield in the vanilla table. So maybe thats the place to look for a solution :-)
al-Mamluk 19 Mar, 2020 @ 1:53pm 
Nice. I made a similar Praetorian mod for myself. A quick question though, how did you get the Praetorians to walk around with their Pilum? I've been trying to figure out how to do it but I can't. I was hoping to apply something of that sort to all my Roman units so that it doesn't look like they're just pulling their pila out of nowhere
