Heya, may I use these models in a mod for armoured naginata ashigaru?

Ikko Ikki ashigaru aren't more armoured than normal

You should be the general in the army because you care for lower enlisted men than the real ones!

you can do a recolour of the troops to the Samuray Warriors style?

Looks cool.

Just want you all to know that I have now released 3 new follow up mods to this one for Monk, Samurai and Wako units. Links are in the description. Enjoy!

@Kayneth Funny that you are asking for this right now because I have just started working on a full "More Armoured Units" reskin. This mod will include what is done with this mod and make small alterations to all units for the main campaign in Shogun 2. This will then include the monk units too.
Kayneth May 14, 2016 @ 3:59am 
Could you please make a version of this for the Warrior Monk units as well? Only for their legs, maybe?
Aragorn-Elessar97 May 9, 2016 @ 5:27am 
yes it is, my fault, problem solved :) I will not use it anymore and play with your one
Merwanor  [author] May 8, 2016 @ 11:50am 
@Aragorn-Elessar97 I could not find a mod called allied diplomacy, but I did find one called Allied Democracy. Is this the mod you are using? If so, then that is not compatible with this mod as it includes a bunch of the same unit files.
Aragorn-Elessar97 May 8, 2016 @ 11:32am 
only some factions, I tried it some days ago with oda and Imagawa and it worked, later I reinstall them
Merwanor  [author] May 8, 2016 @ 11:11am 
@nanoman8 I will go with that very unsatisfying response and say... maybe :P I am not really playing much Shogun 2 these days and I have other things going on at the moment. But if I get the time and I if I feel like it, I will do a full "more armoured units" reskin for Shogun 2. If it happens, I will post a comment here to let you know.

@Aragorn-Elessar97 Hmm, yeah those mods should not conflict at all with this mod. And since I can't really replecate your issue I don't really know how to solve it. Is it that all units still look like vanilla or is it just some enemy factions?

Perhaps try deleting the mod and redownload it and then check the mod again in the mod manager.
Aragorn-Elessar97 May 8, 2016 @ 10:57am 
I don't use radious mod :) and other mods I use are: 12 turns per year and allied diplomacy
Nanoman May 8, 2016 @ 10:56am 
so can you make a mod that give all samurai units greaves
Merwanor  [author] May 8, 2016 @ 9:19am 
@nanoman8 Ok so I have tested this mod with only Vanilla and there the sound on the bowmen seems fine. I have also tested radious and everything works there too. Some mods may cause issues with the sound of bow units and this is actually a bug introduced by CA themselves in the last patch that was never fixed.

To fix that issue then visit this link and download that program. http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?544459-Sinfonia-Semplice-(Sound-Fixing-Tool)

See if that might fix the sound issue for you.

@Aragorn-Elessar97 I have now tested playing Shimazu in a long campaign with vanilla and the radious mod installed. And it seems to work fine for me. Are you using any mods that perhaps changes the look on units? Such as color mods or something like that?
Nanoman May 7, 2016 @ 12:05pm 
i think your mod has cause the bow units to be quiet
Aragorn-Elessar97 May 7, 2016 @ 11:27am 
Probably I found a bug, I am playing as shimazu in the long campaign but the mod doesn't work, all ashigaru units I met are vanilla
Merwanor  [author] May 6, 2016 @ 8:59am 
@sparkymania_2 and Aragorn-Elessar97 Thank you for the nice feedback.

It should compatible with multiplayer, but I do not play multiplayer in TW so I have not tested it. If the multiplayer uses the same models as singleplayer then they it should work fine. I believe I did at least edit one specific MP unit, which was a loan sword ashigaru unit.

If you encounter a unit in multiplayer that does not have the new look, then please let me know and I will try and fix that.
Aragorn-Elessar97 May 6, 2016 @ 7:20am 
Cool mod :) is this compatible with multiplayer?
sparkymania_2 May 4, 2016 @ 2:10pm 
well done. they look great.
Merwanor  [author] May 4, 2016 @ 12:59pm 
@Phoenix Connexion Yes they should be compatible with each other as both edit different files. This mod should be compatible with mostly all mods as long as they don't edit the specific model files.
Tola, the Last Kheshig May 3, 2016 @ 4:59pm 
Nice, just wondering does your "Normal Yari for Yari Ashigaru Units" mod is compatible with this mod?
Nanoman May 2, 2016 @ 2:38pm 
the thing is i plan the ikko ikki to be a band of bandit army i was thinking if you would like to make a empire mod but nvm then
Merwanor  [author] May 2, 2016 @ 2:19pm 
@nanoman8 Hmm by my own tests with the mod, the Ikko Ikki loan sword units should be different than vanilla. I have removed their bare leg and arm armor models and given them the same as other Ashigaru units. Though I have not added shoulder pads to them as that clips with their monk hood variation. Which I wan't to still be there to give that faction their uniqueness.

If the changes do not show up, then there might be another mod that conflicts with this one.

Samurai units and units for RotS or FotS will have to wait for now, first I might do a complete reskin for the main campaign and then I might do it for the other campaigns if I have the time. I do have Empire, but I don't play it anymore and I don't intend to either really. Did not like it that much.
Nanoman May 2, 2016 @ 11:25am 
btw do you happen to have empire total war?
Nanoman May 2, 2016 @ 10:20am 
it didn't affect the ikko ikki but i want it that way but i want atm is to have all samurai unit have greaves,,,,,,,,sames goes to the rise of the samurai samurai..actually maybe you could also reskin shogunate guards in fots to samurai
Merwanor  [author] May 2, 2016 @ 10:13am 
@nanoman8 As far as I know, only Ikko Ikki has sword wielding ashigaru units and those should be included in this mod. Of course new ashigaru units added by other mods won't be affected by this mod. And I don't want to mess with other peoples mods.

For this specific mod I will stick to the Ashigaru units, and I have already noticed that I am missing some standard bearers for Samurai units. An update will come out today or perhaps tomorrow for those.

But now that I know how to reskin units in Shogun 2, I may actually do a full reskin of the units in the game. Which will include what this mod does and more, such as Samurai units. Though that will take some time so don't expect it out this week, perhaps next week.
Nanoman May 2, 2016 @ 9:43am 
nice! this is close to what i had in mind tho it didn't apply to the loan sword ashigaru addon mod thanks! if you don't mind there is another mod i would like......could you add greaves to the samurai units? only heroes and calvary seem to have them
