The spear units don't seem to have swords. This may be intentional but it breaks other mods that have a secondary weapon (sword). Any chance you could change this so spear units have swords as well?

Specifically this breaks Phalangitis's hoplites_reformed.pack which is the best phalanx formation mod currently available.

Units definately impacted: Heroes of Sparta, Periokoi Hoplites, Royal Spartans and Spartan Hoplites.

will see what i can do my rome 2 keeps crashing for some reason but it shouldnt be a problem to sort out what you have stated thank you

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. I'll help test it after.

Just wanted to add to my original post.

Phalangitis said that the reason why the units I mentioned don't show primary weapons (spears) is due to the lack of swords. I don't know if this is actually the case. Doesn't make any sense to me personally but I think he looked at your files to determine this.

Just wanted to clarify what the actual problem is when the two mods are combined.

Also to note I run yours above his in the Mod Manager. Running his above yours overwrites those units skins completely which is not helpful when it's yours I want to see. :)

hey sausage ive done the changes all spear units have swords, but i have a problem i can't upload the changes. for some reason everytime i open rome through steam the CA launcher crashes the only way i can get rome to run is by using the mod manager from TWC im a bit lost as to what to try and do to fix it!

In Steam right click on the game > Properties > Local Files tab > click Verify Integrity of Game Cache. Short of re-installing the game that's the best solution. Also try a reboot.

tried both of those and deleting the creative assembley folder in the %appdata%

Apparently this issue comes up when you are working on certain files. The files you worked on cannot be simply deleted. For whatever reason the only solution that works is re-naming them to something else. Why that works I don't know. Here is the solution:

hey sausage ive finally sorted rome out, in the end it must have been a mod causing the problem i had to unsubscribe and delete all but my own mods to get it to work! well ive now updated with the swords so hope this works

Issue is fixed with the 4 units. Thank you! Yeah his mod forces the first rank to switch to swords after the initial charge while ranks 2-3 poke with spears from the back. It's pretty wicked to see.

cool glad it does :)

Hey gov, I've already put this in the regular comments, but the Spartan advisor seems to be the advisor for every faction you play as. Please fix.
