question, can the corpses stay in the battlefield for a longer time? such as 20 min or more? i downloaded another similar mod before but the guy who made it stopped updating it so bugs like the disappearing stable started to appear
Are you sure this works? Iāve tested this trigger with the Unit ID and Dead Unit ID and canāt seem to get it to work.
Hi,
Thanks for such a simple yet wonderful mod!
Itās good itās not a data mod while massively improve the feel of battlefield.
I see youāve updated the mod for normal graphics some time ago but not the enhanced one. Is it possible you update the enhanced graphics as well?
Or could you give us some insight on creating the perl script for batch conversion? Many thanks.
Sorry for the late reply and I am glad that you are enjoying the mod 
I would have updated the mod for enhanced graphics too, but first I need developers to increase maximum allowed size limit for mods (500 MB is not enough for enhanced graphics version) and they have not answered me about it yet.
I have thought about publishing Python program which I am using for converting graphics, but I am currently a bit too lazy to do that 
I should publish it to Github one day so people could create local version of the mod by converting graphics on their computer even when I am unable to update public version of the mod for some reason.
EDIT: Oh, it appears that mod size limit has been increased to 1 GB in the meantime! This means that I can finally update enhanced graphics version. I think that I am going to wait until Indian DLC is released (April 28th) and then update both normal and enhanced versions to the current version of the game (with Indian units).

I updated both normal and enhanced graphics versions of the mod to the current game version ā101.101.61591.0 8647032ā (Indian DLC). Success of update can be checked by whether mod contains 262 decay files.
@petwon32 Update is finally fully done

Thanks for the update but now the mod refuses to download via the game, and the game no longer shuts down when closing. Is it not possible to upload this mod to a file hosting web site?
Does this answer help you? I could upload to some file hosting site, from where people could place it into local mods folder but it would be more troublesome than automatic download and of course would miss automatic updates.

I deleted all the files in my mods folder, and then eventually everything downloaded, and now all works as expected. Thanks
is there a way to do this on windows ? and are all decay graphics included ? also animals and siege ?
Do what on Windows? I have Windows 10. Yes, all decay graphics are included, even the animals and siege.
thanks. about windows, you said you could upload a tool in github python tool but i have no idea what python is, my question was if this works with windows.
Update for the game version ā101.102.1156.0 (#66692) 9368025ā (reduced size due to migrating to SLD format)
can you share which tool you used to convert from smx to sld?
I have created a special program for changing decay graphics files. I switched this program to SLD format based on this documentation - āhttps://github.com/SFTtech/openage/blob/master/doc/media/sld-files .mdā. Remove space from that link. I had to add space because for some reason this forum obfuscates link otherwise.
I have visited that github b4 but making a program is way too technical for most of us. can you share the steps on how to do it? or share the program you made if possible.
My program just duplicates and removes frames from existing decay SLD files. I donāt even need to decode content of frame layers, because they contain their size in headers, so I can skip their content.
Like I understand you want to convert SMX files to SLD files? I donāt know how to do it and so canāt help you. Try to ask in Siege Engineers Discord server whether anyone has any idea how to do it.
oh I see what you mean. I did ask them, they said its currently only for extraction from sld to smx but not the other way around. guess have to wait for slx studio for update
Yorok0 is it possible to add decaying corpses/skeletons into the game with a mod? Iām really upset they removed that feature.
It would be theoretically possible if someone would draw all the decaying graphics. It would be a lot of work though, so I donāt think it ever happens.

hey yorok0,
i love and use your Visible Corpses mods since the release of aoe2de.
i experienced since the release of return of rome, they donĀ“t work with the data-set of r-o-r.
maybe you have some time to see if it can be fixxed easily. i donĀ“t wanna make you much work and waste your time, and also i donĀ“t wanna sound harsh like: do it!
but it would be awesome to see and i would like it alot. thank you for your work.
