@Last Spartan
It does change generals if I remember correctly. Best option is to setup your load order so that FRA's reskins load after my mod so that they'll override the general reskins in this. Depending on how FRA has setup their mod, it may work with the load order either way around but loading FRA's reskins after is the best way to ensure you get those general skins.

Does this do anything with generals? I use FRA's Spartan general reskin and I'm wondering if these will work together.

@Floro7125 & @RomanRule1234
Here is the version without the helot reskins: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1910167098
I have to agree tbh the helot skins really do look awful. If you encounter any problems with it I'll try and fix them as soon as I can.

@Floro7125 & @RomanRule1234
In all honesty I'm pretty surprised this still gets used. I have a very busy day tomorrow and a potentially busy week. Since people still seem to use this I will try to make a separate version without the skirmisher reskins when I can. I recommend subscribing to this thread if you haven't already since I'll post a link here when I get round to making and uploading it.
Romans1234 2 Nov, 2019 @ 4:20am 
@Virius , could you maby please remove the helot javelin and archer skins? or at least offer just the spartan and hoplite skins in a seperate pack, because I agree with @Floro7125, the skirmishers just look awful
Floro7125 21 Oct, 2019 @ 6:01am 
I LOVE THE MOD BUTTT pls could u change the helot archers and overall range units to original they look edgy and even though I DAMM LOVE THE LOOK OF THE SPARTANS it really takes a toll on me to see the edgy range units so if u could spare some time just to change it PLEASE

This mod is beautiful and I'm in love with you for making it! Take that as you will but you are a artist for Total war series!
Virius  [author] 13 Oct, 2018 @ 5:04am 
@Spartang
There was an issue getting that to work previously. If I have time, I might try again or just see if there are new items added to the game that I can implement.
Spartang 12 Oct, 2018 @ 6:26pm 
I think it would be cool if you incorperated the corinthian thats on the royal spartans in the regular hoplites but have it as a rare occurance other thatn that perfect mod(I just want more corithians. I know there not that historicly accurate but they are so cool)
Virius  [author] 11 Oct, 2018 @ 1:34pm 
@Spartang
It depends on the time period actually. If I remember correctly, the lambda symbol that you're referring to supposedly was first put on shields during the Peloponnesian wars. Before that Spartans would put designs of their choice on their shields. This does interestingly mean that the 300 most likely didn't carry the famous 'spartan symbol' on their shields.
In terms of how much the symbol was actually used, historical accounts differ. Some suggest that it did become quite popular among Spartans but, like many things from the period, actual historical evidence isn't great so I've gone for a mix of shields as I would expect that to be the case and I personally prefer how it looks.
Spartang 11 Oct, 2018 @ 12:55pm 
Shouldnt all the spartan units have the same sheild with the spartan symbol on it. I read they painted that on their sheild as a symbol of thier spartan pride. Why do they have a squid thats seems more athenian. I get it for the periokoi though.

I'll update the discription and mod in a bit for you guys but be aware that the mod still works regardless. As I have previously stated, it is designed so that it should not need to be updated. If it is not working then it is almost certainly another mod that is causing it not to work.

Yet again, let me emphasise that rather than simply telling me to update, tell me what isn't working even if all you know is that it is crashing at launch. Just saying update makes it seem like you haven't tested it and are just assuming it is out of date. If you simply look a couple of comments back from this, you will see that it shouldn't require an update and that you should try it.
Snowman 23 Aug, 2018 @ 7:25pm 
update?
TavoAnG 29 Jul, 2018 @ 3:21pm 
update pls
Virius  [author] 7 May, 2018 @ 6:46am 
If it actually doesn't work, tell me what isn't working. If it just says it's out of date, try it it may still work. Also, if you can't get it to work with other mods, try using it without any other mods.
trueskills 6 May, 2018 @ 11:25am 
please update
LI PARMIGIANA 18 Mar, 2018 @ 5:28am 
Udapte pls!
Virius  [author] 3 Dec, 2017 @ 3:56pm 
I do plan to return to modding at some point, although that may not end up being until some time next year and I don't know if I'll ever mod ROME II again (Other than fixing this mod if it's broken). Having said that, I may be tempted to do a major update to this mod when I look into fixing it.

Anyway, hope you all have fun playing

Virius  [author] 3 Dec, 2017 @ 3:55pm 
@Anyone looking at this mod
It shouldn't really need an update due to the nature of the mod. The launcher may well say it's out of date but it should still work. In case it actually isn't working (perhaps due to Empire Divided), I'll try and check it works some time this week and perhaps push an update just so it no longer says it is out of date even if it does work. I can't really give a certain dates anymore as other stuff in my life does have to take priority rn.

In addition to that, I am aware that DogSoldierSPQR disappeared with his mods a while ago (Unless my steam is completely broken). I might see if I can keep the skins for his mod in, just in case anyone is still able to use it.

update!
Luna 8 Aug, 2017 @ 10:09am 
AWESOME!!! That's what I have been looking for!!! THX so much!!!
Demon Dog 30 Apr, 2017 @ 12:59pm 
can you give the regular spartan hoplites the helmet lord buio made but without the crest?
Virius  [author] 13 Oct, 2016 @ 9:40am 
@quachandy99 I could probably make it work with DEI although it would take a bit of time when I'm not sure that many people would use it. It would probably also require a mod manager as with Umbra Et Provocatus.
quachandy99 13 Oct, 2016 @ 9:17am 
oooh to bad this not compatible with DEI
Virius  [author] 12 Dec, 2015 @ 3:48am 
There are plenty of mods that add those shield though.
Saevus 12 Dec, 2015 @ 3:47am 
Ah too bad then
Virius  [author] 12 Dec, 2015 @ 3:46am 
They aren't meant to be based on a movie.
Saevus 12 Dec, 2015 @ 3:28am 
Good but if you can make their shields similar to the movie that would be great!
yoummali 4 Oct, 2015 @ 2:06pm 
AWESOME MODDDD!!!! lol but keep up the great work:)
Virius  [author] 1 Oct, 2015 @ 10:24am 
Thanks.
Virius  [author] 1 Sep, 2015 @ 4:20pm 
Should still work, I'll check when I get time.
N'Zoth 1 Sep, 2015 @ 3:26pm 
Is this mod still updated and compatible with latest version patch 17?
Jaki 20 Dec, 2014 @ 10:40am 
Ugh CA why you do this? Released to many DLC already.
Virius  [author] 19 Dec, 2014 @ 2:24pm 
It looks like CA removed sandles from the spartan skin for some reason. I'll look at some point to see if I can find sandles to add or something.
Raven 19 Dec, 2014 @ 12:45pm 
That is because of WoS, I read somewhere that there are new models without sandals thus modders are having a tough time with that aspect. Could be wrong tho...
Jaki 19 Dec, 2014 @ 10:13am 
Is it just me or should the spartans be bare feet? Cause they have legbraces but no shoes...?
Virius  [author] 19 Dec, 2014 @ 3:49am 
There shouldn't be a square thing on the shields now.
Raven 18 Dec, 2014 @ 10:43pm 
Sounds you had a hell of a day, take time to recharge!
Virius  [author] 18 Dec, 2014 @ 3:21pm 
Sorry updates delayed to tommorrow. I got very into my latest crusader kings 2 game. It was crazier than Game of Thrones, I was an english count, I had bastards, I murdered the king of france, I'm on my fourth wife as they keep dying on my, I have 6 normal kids, 2 legitamised bastards and 3 secret bastards (one is now a duke) with another kid on the way. Also I took over england in a war when king harold II died and his brother was elected king. When I won I executed the brother and became known as the usurper. A bit of internal strife later and the law now makes my kids inherit as in england today and my eldest Aiden from my first wife will soon be old enough to become a warrior himself. Next up I plan to use political manouvering and war to conquer Great Britan and Ireland.
As you can see I got very absorbed in it so I'll work on this frist tommorrow before I play.
itachi-sharingan 18 Dec, 2014 @ 11:35am 
this was my bug too
Raven 18 Dec, 2014 @ 11:12am 
Sheilds show a square logo from what I have noticed. Everything else worked fine, BUT I have not tested with WoS yet.
Virius  [author] 18 Dec, 2014 @ 2:30am 
What is the bug?
itachi-sharingan 18 Dec, 2014 @ 1:17am

Virius  [author] 17 Dec, 2014 @ 2:56pm
