UnitModelType? What does it do?

from Elemental Forums

Hi all,

I'm trying to make a High Elf Race for my Warhammer mod, but I'm stuck trying to get the right sort of equipment to show up on the create sovereign screen. I think it's something to do with the UnitModelType, but I'm now sure, I can change to to Wraith, Amarian or whatever, and it'll give me the item set that goes with them, but how do I make my own?

You would like to create a new UnitModelType in the raceconfig and similars where you define the models and characteristics for your elven race, and make all your elves UnitModelType as HighElfMale and HighElfFemale, for example. And all the items that you want them to use (like clothes or armours... same for faces, eyes, hair...) must have something like: <SupportedUnitModelType>KingdomFemale</SupportedUnitModelType>

Obviously, instead of KingdomFemale, you put there the tag for the elves (male or female depending of the piece of equipment you are working on).
