Hoburg MOD - Bug and fix

[normalphil]

Doing a game with the Hoburg alliance mod - they can be pretty damn scary. Horticulturists/ivy crowns and endless bags of wine mixed with an obscene number of cheap crossbowmen has me tramping over the world at will (two armies of 200+ units), even if my prettender (monolith) is doing double-duty on the heavy magical support end.

There's a problem in the Hoburg DM file though, that gives you pretty much nil Province Defense no matter how much you put into it. Here's the existant line:

#defcom1 "Hoburg Champion"
#defcom2 2001
#defunit1 "Hoburg Militia"
#defunit2 "Hoburg Crossbow"
#defmult1 3

The problem is "#defmult1 3" I think their intention was to have 3 militia per point spent on defense, but what it actualy means is 3 units per TEN points spent on defense. I changed it to "#defmult1 30" and the problem went away.


Still don't have a starting scout, though. And Ulmish heroes can look pretty damn silly, towering over a sea of Hoburgs.

Here's a Special Edition of the Hoburg Alliance mod with 2 sacred units (Volkfreund & Tierfreund) and a new mage (Obstgaertner).

Great, now I wanna be a hobbit .

Remember not to use capitalized TGA names. I'm case sensitive and had to rename your tga's.

I'll post your mod unless you tell me not to.

* Edit: I renamed the tga files and rezipped the mod *

How do you do that?

[Teraswaerto]

The heroes? I modify the Ulmish ones and hope that it works.

I didn't use capitalized TGA names.

Sure, post away. Coming up next: Hoburg heroes instead of the Ulm ones!
