[IA] Castle Age Black Roof Tiles for Britons

Description
NOTICE! This is a mod for the "Independent Architecture" DAT mod. This mod does nothing for AoE2 itself. You need the "Independent Architecture" DAT mod to see an effect. Make sure this mod has a higher priority than both the Independent Architecture DAT Mod as well.

Using this with the "Independent Architecture" DAT mod, this changes the Britons Architecture to the use a custom set with Black Roof Tiles for the Castle Age Buildings, which better matches the Imperial Designs. With the DAT mod, this only affects the Britons and not the other Western Europe Civilizations, such as the Spanish.

While this architecture is featured in the Unofficial Forgotten Empires Mod v3.3, supposedly the original creator of these particular buildings is "Dynasty_IV", as featured in his "Age of Civilization" mod: http://aok.heavengames.com/blacksmith/showfile.php?fileid=11655&f=&st=0&ci=

The original list of credits from the mod which this came from has been lost and I have been unable to get in contact with the creator, so this mod is currently being uploaded in a grey area without permission. If there is any conflict or request from the original creator, I will remove this mod from the workshop.

For the non Independent Architecture version of the CS Western European Black Roof Tiled Buildings, Please see the Workshop Version uploaded by julianbaba4: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=758040482
With Independent Architecture, julianbaba's version will only affect the Franks, due to the Franks being the only Western European Civilization still using the original SLP ID's.

I just realized - this would be EXTREMELY fitting for the Franks. I direct your attention to the various buildings of the Carolingian era; like the Aachen Cathedral and the Lorsch monastery gatehouse, as well as the -wait for it- St. Michael's Church in Fulda. Yes, you, Saint_Michael. People loved IA so much, they dedicated a Church to you.

One recommendation: When I have both the Brown Tile mod for the Franks installed along with this mod, the former makes the Briton tiles brown, even when the IA dataset is activiated and even when the Brown Tile Mod is lower on the priority list than the Black Briton Tiles. If you extracted the original Western Imperial Left Wing, Right Wing, and Middle Roof SLPs and made them into 35285, 35288, and 35291 respectively and put them in this mod, that'd stop the two mods from overlapping.

Hey, I am trying to change the Italian roofs to a black tone, but how have you edited the colour?
