[DC] Epic ork flag problem strikes back

[Kilkakon]

Hello everybody,

I've attempted to post about this before to little success, but I thought why not try again! I'm having a bit of an ork flag issue with my own personal mod (sadly not releasable publicly due to the whole GW rules thing) for DC, but it's a bit more advanced and weird than what one would normally expect. What I've done is used a hex editor to change the race information inside the strategic point, so the flags are being pointed onto the right races--but just aren't colouring.

I'll show some images to show what's happening a bit more:

The Chosen (necron_race) get their flag just fine, although it doesn't have any remappable parts on it anyway so it's trivial here.


The Harlequins (wb_harlequin_race) get the Chaos flag as they should... but it is always an Alpha Legion flag no matter what the army painter colours are


Free Botae (free_botae_race) have the classic Ork flag bug, without an existing flag given to them (as I wanted them to have ork anyway) and as this was the most recent race I kinda gave up on this issue by that stage.


But surprisingly, The Forces of Tomorrow (tomor_race) have the Imperial Guard flag which just works perfectly.


The Teal Empire (tealrace) have the Tau flag, as they should, but it has the problem of not recolouring or changing to the appropriate banner.

Any advice that you can give would be greatly appricated. I have tried to use the objective points mod flags, but they have the same problem as the stock DC ones do.

Here you go m8, I had same problem: http://forums.relicnews.com/showthre...for-a-new-race

Problem treated in this tutorial: you have created a new race, but when you play it in game, the ork flag appears whenever your new race captures a strategic point.

I did try to follow that tutorial--

But everything looks okay to me, if we don't count the fact that the existing races have no flags (they get ork ones now).



...

EDIT: Random breakthrough! By changing tealrace to datealempire_race, and making them use the space marine banner, they randomly work now! So that's 3/5 races working rather than 2... I'll see what I can do about the others.


EDIT2: I think that this may be solved! I just fixed The Harlequins by giving them the Dark Eldar flag from Soulstorm (I copied the model to DC)... as the faction uses the Wych. It seems that the units in the faction need to use the respective flag, otherwise it won't work. I think that's the conclusion I can draw so far.

EDIT3: Yay! All the 5 races are working now.
