Re: Trouble with Unit Graphics
Here is one of the unit graphics the game refuses to acknowledge, though there may be more. Every time I remove the trouble graphics from the mod, the game comes up with another file it's not cool with. In any case, as llamabeast suggested, I'm posting one of these unit graphics to see if anyone else can reproduce and solve this problem. Thanks ahead of time for all your help guys.
Update: Also added the download to the original post.

Re: Trouble with Unit Graphics
That suggests that you should resave all of the unit graphics with e.g. Irfanview and see if it works then.

Re: Trouble with Unit Graphics
Already tried. No such luck. Next step, guess I'll cut and paste all of the graphics to new Irfanview files and save those. Can't imagine what dominions doesnt like about my graphics.

Re: Trouble with Unit Graphics
I just substituted the 2009_lord commander into a mod and had no problems. Graphic was just as downloaded.
Attach your dm file. I suspect that is where your problem is.

Re: Trouble with Unit Graphics
I havent played with this for awhile so Im trying to remember. But does dom3 say "cant be loaded" when it would have been clearer to say "cant find it"? It might be a paths problem. Or an upper-case/lower-case problem. Windows is willing to ignore many things which Dominions (which is actually a linux program ported to windows) is really REALLY picky about.

Re: Trouble with Unit Graphics
Alright, yet another thread that ends with me talking about how much I hate windows vista. So vista in its infinite wisdom had saved a .dm file that was out of date in the completely random appdata/virtualstore dominions 3 folder, where I had forgotten to tag on the .tga on every units sprite location. I had fixed that oversight in the main dominions folder, but it was being overridden by the other file. Having deleted the old .dm file, the mod is now functioning perfectly and having no problem loading the graphics. Sorry for the trouble, thanks for all your help guys.
