Hey man, for some reason my PC doesnt open Assembly Kit, so here i came to ask you for a favour. By the way, a lot of people want this units, so your mod will be very popular, for sure; you should call it "Alexanders Era Macedon" or something like that.
I have done the models already, feel free to watch the images of the links and copy them.
First at all, you must change the three faction colours to 255 (R) 255 (G) and 230 (B), is basically white.
I think you should add the new Phyrgian Helmet recently added in ROTR, is used by Taras and Syracuse soldiers: https://imgur.com/gallery/mSYtqnP

The units you should change are the:

1.- Foot Companions: https://imgur.com/ZWKnPWM

2.- Shield Bearers: https://imgur.com/H7rOs39

Second part of the comment...

3.-Companion Cavalry: just the same than vanilla but without armor on the horses.

The things you should add (Armor, helmets, etc) are in the left part of the images.
I would like to do it for myself, but for some reason i cant "create" mods

Noniac & Celticus Magnus-

I'm new to modeling (studying 3D modeling and printing in college).

Could you make a couple campaign map army emblems? I'm just starting to mod those and would love a template to work off of.

Second request: Would you consider recording a youtube vid while creating one of your models? I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in studying your process, which software you use, etc.

Thanks for the excellent work and presentation!

EDIT: Sorry, Celticus, I had to look up Noniac's name. I was just fixing the who to address it to when you replied.

@Ryan, as the description states, Noniac makes all the models. I am the texturer for them all. I can only say I followed the Substance Painter tutorials on youtube and just experimented. You will have to ask Noniac if you want modeling advice.

@Ryan, You had an idea that nearly went reality a couple of months ago, I did indeed make a video of me creating the HBO helmet. Unfortunately i scrapped the idea and the video got deleted, i even made a guide to texture it also. But my policy with this types of things is the more people we are, the better the models, textures, everything is going to be. For that, anyone who wants the MAX files from where i exported all the models can just ask and i will link to them, you can study those and you will find getting any model into the game is pretty easy apart from weighting. While you are at it im going to leave some twc forum discussions that helped me a ton:

First of all, getting the model in:

For the textures, dirtmap, what to put in custom attributes:

If you are working whitout a CA template, how to create that custom attribute:

For adding the crest attach point, do a CTRL + F and put the word "doohickey" https://boards.fireden.net/vg/thread/107646160/
For creating textures like CA originals (orange normals) made by Hloeric:

I really just want some 3rd centry shields
FrostKaiser 15 Sep, 2018 @ 1:11pm 
Any plans to add some 3rd Century content, for Empire Divided? The elite units for Rome in that dlc look terrible.
noniac  [developer] 21 Sep, 2018 @ 5:18am 
@BtoTheW @SirMatt, So far 3rd century is a period i dont like much... but I know there are some people working on assets for that time period, i cant confirm but I will probably make a Niedermörmter

Great! Thanks for considering it. The reason I ask for work for Emprie Divided is just the terrible state some of the units look.

Will the resources be incorporated into DEI one day ?
Maybe you could change the shield textures like the imperial legions of rome mod :)

Absolutely beautiful work, thank you. However could we get more color variants of the 'cut' tunic? There's only the one at the moment and honestly it feels like an achilles heel of this wonderful mod.

Hi guys.
I come here just after I comented the feedback of Rome HD Legions of the imperator mod, and as I said there, for me, a lover of the roman history, this is the best mod Ive ever tested for the roman units. Some of the team have worked on both mods, Rome HD and extravaganza, but in my opinion this mod is the one that represents in a more epic and realistic way the real aspect of the roman soldiers. Seems this mod has been left a little behind, I dont even know if someone is going to read this, wich is a shame because this mod is almost perfect, really, I cant find a better option than roman models extravaganza, Ill be always with an eye here with hope for upgrades and updates for if I could use a mod for the romans in the perfect rome II total war, Id use what I saw here with this mod, eyes closed.
