I'm sure it will come back to you one day =)

To be honest I completely forgot how to mod this game :-/

any chance to add in Archon and Tiefling to the roster?

Wow, somehow didn't realize that was built-in

Granted, that feature is missing on Linux; which I was using Linux only up until recently(as I decided to get Windows both to use the Map Editor in this game and some other games I have needed it)

Only used built-in editor no external program.

@Mug: Yeah, it works fine when using the Random Map Generator, scenarios, and even in the campaign. The errors StormChaser below posted(and that I also get) seem to only impact the map editor(for me at least).

@alexej that's understandable. It's still a great mod that I'd probably use outside the Map Editor. I'm trying to figure out how to mod this game myself, but am having no luck finding a program that can even open and read the code in the game files. Do you remember what you used?

To be completely honest I simply forgot and lost every bit of skills with editor I had back then xD and also hdd with mod backup is dead so I do apologize. Not sure if the reparation attempt will come any soon from me :-/

Don't know if Alexej is returning, but just as a general FYI we are still using this mod with a bunch of others, with no problems. We don't use the map editor, though. But just since the below comments could be understood as the mod was broken, it is not. At least not for our use case ;)

Don't know if you ever intend on working on this again, but this mod seems to be incompatible with the vanilla map editor. CTD's when trying to load a new map. Tested with no other mods enabled. It has to do with the errors StormChaser below me posted, as those are the errors I got when loading a new map to begin creating my own.

Been using your mod for years now, thanks!
Just ran it in Debug Mode alone, getting some errors:

Is this still incompatible with new Arsenal?

That's probably why i don't get them (New Arsenal) given i'm certain of having the prereqs (Mercenary Camp and all)

He is using same names for categories or something its hard to tell

I've been good so far, I just find it weird that it's compatable with so many other unit mods, but doesn't work with New Arsenal.

Do you have mercenary camp or other required building in city? I made thorough tests not a day ago so I am pretty sure EVERY SINGLE ONE of them is buildable

I don't seem to be able to get any of the new units either, except by golding their predecessors.

@skaz88 Try it with Chivalrous intentions. Tested with my usual mod collection and its a BLAST :D works well
Orc breaker irregular is buildable as intended you need Slaughter pits in city and Orc Patron Military from race governance, tested and able to recruit those monsters :D

For some reason this mod and New Arsenal don't play well together, which is odd since other unit addition mods don't cause any problems.

Ill check later

Der Mentat updated to fix the problem. I'm still having trouble with Orcs, but I don't know if that's because thier requirements are special.

because you are not an author you should not open mine but create new with BNU as requirement like dlc requirements. That way you can explore everything I changed or created

It keeps telling me that I can't alter an exported package when I try to open it.

In package manager. You can make new mod which will require BNU and there you will be able to see all changes and setting of BNU

How do you open the file?

Twice I did explored it already looking for bugs without success so far :-/

It seems to just be Humans, Haflings and Draconians.

I think it might need to be fixed on your end, I want to look myself but I don't know how to open the files.....

Hi all,
A poll of the best mods of AoW3 is being organized and Brave New Units has been selected among the top 20. You can rate it and the other 19 mods here: https://www.the-battlefield.com/aow3/index.php?page=bf_poll&pollnumber=27
More info on the Steam forum: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/app/226840/discussions/0/1488866180593890331/

Thought so but thanks for explanation ☺️

And of course we use your Brave New Units mod :) - but obviously we cannot evolve the Archon units

The Archon Mod is not 100% compatible with Empire Building Mod in the sense that you can not build the additional buildings like Market, Verteran's Hall, Trade Center, Sanctuary, etc whenever you play an Archon leader.
For the rest it is compatible -> we use the Hero Compatibility version of Empire Building Mod: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=956473040 -> so we can also use Hero Professions Mod and Hero Development Mod from the same author as the Archon Mod.

@BelovedMonster how is that Archon mod compatible with Empire Building Mod?

@giorgiga - that is strange. I play Brave New Units together with Racial Heritage Mod and many other mods without problems.

I only hope that the Archons from the Archon Race Mod -
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=897959715 also get evolved versions in the Brave New Units Mod :)

Did not changed version number before uploading to steam, but it was not problem before. Reuploaded with changed version number hope it helps

We get "you are running an older version of these mods: Brave new units" when starting up all games based on the new update. Is it just us?
All expansions installed, PBEM games, all have updated to the latest version

@Prowlercat It has been only fixed now for real, sorry about that

I guess RHM author uses same name for evolve categories as me. Since his mod is older it would be nice to change mine :D You are an excellent conflict hunter will try to work on this in some spare time and bring an update

@alexej Apparently it was Racial Heritage Mod causing the issue (or maybe it's incompatible with yours?) - anyway, after removing Racial Heritage Mod I was able to add Brave New Units and start a new game with no assertion failures. Thanks!

Thanks for looking into this so quickly!

It's hard to tell wether units from other mods evolve... I'm trying out a bunch of new mods and so I don't know them very well yet:

* Empire Building Mod (Hero Compatibility) id=761554527
* Beastman Dwelling id=766737160
* Invoke Mount Selection id=638290357
* Garrison Command id=524280924
* Obsidian Dragons in Dwellings id=519668473
* Expanded Forge id=594777083
* Summon Spell Tweaks id=596006512
* Structure Reward Variety id=525193598
* The Old Man and the Sea id=688927870
* Racial Heritage Mod id=534176740

I temporarily removed Brave New Units, because AoW would crash when starting a new game.
None of the other mod contains the string "0000014D000000A6" (used "grep -r" in AoW3/UserContent and.. yes, I'm on a mac) - hence my report.

@giorgiga Are you using by chance any other mod that evolves units beside Empire Building Mod? Never encountered such error report. It is blocking you from starting the game too?

Thanks mate!

It sounds like from this mod. Hmm need to take look at this

I get the following message (not 100% sure this is from this mod)

Message: [GENERATEDLEVEL.SAM][GENERATEDLEVEL.SAM]Double resource ID found!

They are fragile so there are similarities ;)

Thanks to you for your quick fix!

@Prowlercat thanks for reporting it was not properly set, you can update mods and continute your game sorry for this mistake

I built Mercenary Camp but i cannot still build Tigran irregular tier 2. I also have Empire building mode, maybe something is conflicting?

good game

This is such a great idea, love just adding more little things to the game - Thanks ;D

Ouch its for random maps, if you want campaign you will have to play vanilla
