If you are creating units then you don't have to rename, you can keep the same name if you wish and add the mesh to your game. You can then find the mesh in the folder, by saving it on desktop you make finding it just a little quicker. Next right click on that mesh you loaded click "Add" then "File(s)". To do this just load up a random mesh from Models, you can delete it later. To add the mesh you must first create the proper pathways that the game must use.

STEP SEVEN: Add the mesh to your mod in PFM When you close the kit your variantmesh or meshes will exist in your folder for all eternity. You must close the assembly kit in order to save any changes you make in your mod. Also you will only be able to do one variantmesh at a time. It may indicate that your computer is no longer responding but after a few seconds it will kick back in. Now, with the load definition menu open bring up your new folder and copy and paste your chosen variantmesh to the new folder. You can see "Sebidee_Roman" at the end of the list. For this tutorial I named the variantmesh "Sebidee_Roman"Ĭlick on load definition and you will see a list of all the variantmeshes that you have created. You should do this even if you intend to reskin an existing unit as sometimes the variants revert to the original. For the sake of the tutorial I chose to edit the Legionaries mesh with a distinctive helmet and cloak.

This is where your variant meshes will be stored and where you will find them when you want to put them into PFMĬreate your unit, I'm sure you know how to do that. Step one is easy, you create a new folder on your desktop and name it variants or whatever. Here is a simple little trick that I find both easier and faster: There is a way of transferring them which is probably advocated by CA but I find it to be complicated and unreliable as sometimes I cannot find the meshes I made! Without getting too technical, the reason it is difficult is because saved variantmeshes seem to not exist unless the certain parts of the Assmebly Kit is running. It is a stumbling block for many modders and one which I found particularly perplexing when I first tried it. Transferring variantmeshdefinitions from Assembly kit to PFM can be difficult and confusing. Rome 2 is pretty saturated by tutorials so I won't bother doing anything you've seen before but I have picked up a few tips, tricks and shortcuts making mods and I will share them with you if I think they will help.
