Squad Icons

Post by HolyTerra »

I want to change the yellow diamond with the black wolfs head that floats over the space wolf units. Is there a way to change this for my own scenarios as easily as changing the color of the marines? I have been poking around the files but have not found the files.

The banners are 3D models. The link shows how to swap texture on model.

The banner textures can be found:
_\Warhammer 40000 Sanctus Reach\Data\UI\Textures\
UNITICONS0.dds
UNITICONS1.dds

I have not done this yet, put new banner texture in the custom campaign folder and tried to replace the given texture.

"Any meshes and textures should live in the DATA/BATTLE/BANNERS folder" and that folder isn't present in the main game files.

[strike]New banner texture might just go in campaign Data\UI\Textures\ and the script is not necessary [WRONG].[/strike]

edit: I'm not sure what the mesh-name of the banner is.

Sanctus doesn't actually use the banner code (it was added after launch). I believe that the banners are just models from CORE/ANIMS. If you dupe it into your custom campaign with a new texture it should replace it.
