Any update on this?

update please ㅠㅠ

@Mc_Pabl0 it should fully replace settlement skin, instead placing it atop original. Of course if i can find enought time to finish it... RL taking all my time(

is this similar to Cultural Skins

@ebuyuran no problem.

Hey @Noxsite, I'm sorry I haven't read it properly. I didn't conquer Black Pyramid of Nagash I don't really know.

@ebuyuran did you try to conquer Black Pyramid of Nagasn to check it? Cause it's only for that now. There are some staff to do, as CA decided not to do cultures options for some settlements and I have to check and rewrite it from 0.

I've just tried and observed that conquered enemy cities did not change on my saved game.

Hey there, is this mod is in playable state?

xXalduin99 Wow, thx a lot for info about this mode. Finaly, it gave me right way for implemintation of my idea. I'll try adapt it as soon as I can.

Hope you can figure this out. It's so annoying that they removed this feature after WH1, I never settle in regions that don't have the same texture as my faction anymore because of this, it just looks dumb having Lizardmen occupying Dark Elf settlements. I've used the Cultural Settlement skin mod you linked before but never liked the clipping either, so best of luck I'm excited to see if you get it working!

@Vandy but usually PFM marks empty rows, as mistakes... Hmm... Well, it doesn't matter, cause it was raw mod version. I have tried some other staff, but still without results.

Using PFM adds empty rows when you paste a bunch of data, empty rows 100% cause crashes on load up. Also yeah it's for sure an old version, they removed some buildings you reference

@Mr.Necrophile no. I suppose, it's pointless.

@Vandy I just copy tables from original game data.pack with no new rows. Empty rows don't affect at game crashes. Probably that happens because it's old version file.

Thx everyone for support, I still working about possible desicions.

God bless you on this righteous journey!
Regarding locating the files and lines relevant to Skaven overwriting of settlement skins - have you tried asking CA?

A) your mod references some non-existent building levels in the db table. All of the Gaean Vale ones at the top of the file don't exist (wh2_main_special_city_gaean_vale_other_ruin)
B) the bottom of that table includes a bunch of empty rows

Both of those will cause crashes. Look up the Rusted Pack File Manager and use that instead

Best of luck modding!

It is.

I hope this mod is still being worked on.

good luck on this mate, the fact that i cant see black towers in occupied lothern as naggaroth triggers my ocd

I know, that couple settlements change their skins, moreover we have overwrite system at scavens (they overwrite other settlements as ruins). I am trying to find this system in data files, but still have no idea where it is and how i can make same system for other races.

best of luck mate, only modder out here trying to fix this shit now-a-days

I am very interested in your mod and wish you a lot of luck and success. Is there any progress? Is there a way to change at least the campaign map model of a city?

yea i noticed too that dwarf main city gets swapped for a greenskin city when destroyed by skaven? Seams like settlement swapping is still in the game but is messed up? :S

xD(

Cool, Honestly don't know why CA didn't have this in the base game.
You're doing the Chaos God's work.

@Murderface. Well, I'm still working on this, but I have to spend more time irl, so my work isn't as fast as I would like.

Any progress on this?

thanks for not giving up on this. If we can help you, no matter what, I guess you will find many volunteers in here.

thank you for driving hard into realizing CA's work that should have been into game from the start. I wish you all the best

@xXAlduin99 Thx a lot for your feedback. I just finished search of tables (scripts) which answers for settlements and cultures. So I'll take a look at scripts a lot.

We put our trust in you man.

I still working on this, but I don't have much time.

Pls continue!

@Noxsite yes dude can you please!

I am not an expert. But looks like in case with Barak Varr the only option is - clearly new model that would look nice in both of Barak Varr and randomly chosen coast settlement.

@dendi's father I don't shure that I'll change battle maps, only regional visual change.

wow this would be the best and a must have mod if it worked, my biggest complaint about second game is no regional visual change on cities and battle maps when conquered. Thank you for trying to fix it

thank you for working on this!

I did some more testing but it seems the current version is not working. Reading through the comments seems like this is also the case for everybody else.
However I still believe this is something which is moddable.

I also offer my help if you need some more people to test something.

@MrSmiley4321 Now I'm making hard tables comparison between first and second parts of game. When I find what's wrong with second part, I'll try to integrate system from first part. It's so much work for me and I don't know when I'll finish it.

when will the update come ? the test version does not work i play a dark elf campaign i cant stand that the city of arnheim is in dark elf territory yet it remains a high elf city after i take it

@Frattylight I can send you spec version, wich change all greenskins settlements to dwarf textures,to make your waiting a bit easier.

If you need any help for testing on this Mod let me know. Can't stand looking at the dwarf campaign map with all greenskin buildings. Such a shame CA can't do this themselves.

You can change the default settlement skin in the campaign_settlement_display_buildings, this only effect the campaign map though not battle map.

But both Wood Elve and Skaven settlement have custom battle map, both walled and unwalled.

@filipgeorg95 so you can off this mod.

No, it seems that mod doesn't work, so hope I'll find a way to fix it.

disabled the unique capitals and still get the vanilla settlements. Should i also disable the higher tiers capital as well ? @Noxsite

Yes, it's conflict,cause I tried make this system work, using same tables.. @FilipGeorg95

Does it conflict with Unique Capitals Mod and Higher Tier Capitals ? Nothing changed and thats why i am asking

Is not working for me,tried ongoing campaigns and also started new ones,nothing so far.
