    Spoiler:

    I am most interested in recruitment_time_bonus_naval bonus 1 because if the naval part can be changed to infantry, or cavalry, ect it would allow so many new options!

    Usefull tools, tutorials and moding resources Empty Looking for "New Unit Creation" Tutorial (from A to Z) for MTW2 and DAC

    Hello,

    I'm looking for a guide on "New Unit Creation" using Milkshape or 3DS Max 9 for example.
    I would like to add new effects/weapons and sounds too. Music maybe later (my own compositions using my keyboard!)
    I would like to add new units to the game

    Sorry, these are all 'my' accumulated tutorials an resources for when i mod. I have collected them over the time i have been modding TW series and i have never gone into sound or modeling units.

    Maybe Renown can update this thread with Milkshape resources to help you.
