How would I go about adding multiple different skins into my game? For example the napoleonic wars enhancement pack, I like it but I don't like all of the skins it uses so how would I go about making my own such pack but with my personal selection of skins?

How exactly do you change the clothing of units in the game? I've done it already but for some reason whenever I load a local server to test it, my guy appears naked with nothing in his midsection and the server says it's autokicking me for cheating.

Did you add a full cloth set to the unit? Hat, cloth, pants, boots etc?

ah no I didn't. That was why though. Thank you Gokiller.

How do you enable a soldier to wield multiple weapons? For some reason when I add an extra weapon to the British soldier's inventory, only one of them shows up.

Where's the loan sword in module_items? And are you sure it's in one of the brfs?

The Sword works fine, it's the spear I have problems with. The problem is that I can't get the unit to spawn with both items at once. He originally starts with the sword but if I click another unit in the menu and go back to him, he switches to the yari. I've added screenshots to explain what I mean.

Before I switch to a different unit in the selection screen.

[Sasuau]

Is it possible to make the crosshair static, meaning that it doesn't open when I aim?

[Gokiller]

Yup

[Sasuau]

Yup

How would I go on to do that?

[Gokiller]

I know it's possible, I don't know how though.

[DanyEle]

Easy as a pie, but would you do this with Text files or the module system? I'd recommend the second way.

I often had similar issues, and that's because the items are the same type(e.g: they are both swords, or muskets, or two handed lightsabers, and so on)

[Joseph Graham]

I can't remember if you are able to do this or not; but is it possible to give the 33rd Officer + Ensign a different hat to the rankers? And if so, how would you go about doing it - name in the .brf file, etc?

Unfortunately this is not possible. There is a way to "assign" a different hat in troops.txt, but if you join a server you will be kicked for cheating with that method (stupid right?).

[Gokiller]

Isn't it possible to just remove the current hat and re-name another hat to your picking to the hat you removed? It shouldn't interfere with the coding/cheating thing I think.
