Weierstrass Units for Vanilla [Part 1]

I always felt that the vanilla Shogun 2 unit roster lacks variety. So I decided to balance out most units from the "Weierstrass Unit Mod" to be compatible with vanilla units. Not included is the battle and abilities revamp from the og mod.

Info: Mod file name will always stay as Weierstass_Units_for_vanilla_v1.0 since there is no way for me to change that other than reuploading the mod with a different named source file name.

~50 new Units to conquer Japan with (Veteran Ashigaru/Samurai, new Heros, and many more)

-Otomo Conquerer Hero will not show both lance and matchlock at the same time but can still use both(I'm unable to get a working animation as lance and gun are held at the same time unlike the vanilla saber/gun combo)

-Without FotS Terco / Portuguese units won't be recruitable.
-Unit cost and stat balances (since all changes are done by me alone)
-Some Bow units sound like cannons. Try running either Sinfonia Semplice or other sound-fixing mods. (Edit: Reinstalling the mod also seems to fix this issue.)
The issue was fixed by adding the original mods sound files into this mod.
optional now:
Edit: Using the Unofficial Shogun 2 Patch 1.7 also fixes the problem.

-All clan/unit DLC's (mod should work even without them but I recommend having at least the unit DLC's since some units are based on them)
-The models mod

- Terco voice fix
- Garrison mod
- Terco variety patch

-this mod should work with most mods and savegames but no guarantee from me.
(Hint: Disabling the mod halfway in your campaigns will of course lead to crashes due to missing units)
-Using the original mod may cause problems and thus isn't recommended.
-Using Expanded Japan or any similar mods are strongly discourage do to them editing ai unit recruitment behaviour !
How to "fix" Expanded Japan:

1. download & set up a mod tool called Rusted PackFile Manager (RPFM) used for most TW games.
   
2. open/start RPFM and click on PackFile then OpenPackfile
   
3. go to the Shogun 2 data folder (.../Steam/steamapps/common/Total War SHOGUN 2/data) and open expanded.pack
   
4. navigate to "db/cdir_desire_priorities_tables" via doubclick (clicking the arrows)
   
5. now you need to make a choice. Both choices will solve the issue but with slightly varying results A)delete the "cdir_desire_priorities_tables" folder (hit delete or rightclick + select delete). The game will use a default version of this folder, so no worries. B) Open "cdir_desire_priorities" and replace all 0 entries of "CDIR_DESIRE_UNIT_UPGRADER_ARMY" with the native default of 5000.(Hint: Expanded might also edit other entries/desires)
   
6. Save the edited packfile with a new/different file name and your done.

I don't specifically test my mod for any mod compatibility since that would be very time-consuming and too dependent on multiple variables that I can't control. So I kindly ask everyone with similar questions to refrain from asking and use trial and error, aka just testing it yourself, and report any incompatible to me so I can put it into the description

If you encounter any bugs like missing units or your screen getting dark while hovering over a unit please try the following steps:

1.Check if you run the english version of shogun 2 (right-click the game in steam library->properties->language->select english) This is a must since text file paths are different between languages.

2. Reinstall the mod by unsubscribing and then subscribing again.
(This usually fixes most problems. Sometimes Steam seems to corrupt the download/ some files are missing and so it's advised to download the mod in one go)

3. If step 1 unsuccessful: Check if you use any other mods especially other unit mods.

4. Try disabling other (unit) mods one by one and then start the game. This roots out any mod compatibility problems. (Disable only 1 mod and then start the game, you probably have to do that multiple times when using a lot of mods)

5. When everything above fails then please post your mod setup and the affected unit(s) in greater detail in the troubleshooting forum so I can try and have a look into the issue,

Else please consider filling out the troubleshooting form below (makes my life and yours easier):

What is the issue?
-(describe what the issue is in a short but detailed manner e.g Unit model/picture missing, unit not being recruitable, etc.)

Which units are affected?
-(mention all affected units or classes in detail with the full name of the units, e.g Ikko Ikki Bow Ashigaru. The Clan name is important as Clan improved/unique units are game-/enginewise their own respective units with their own entries.

Where does this happen?
- (choose one of the 3 options: [campaign map/(custom) battle/other], if other is selected please elaborate it aka. during loading screen, starting the game, etc.)

When/How often does it happen? (if applicable)
-(mention the times it happens aka. always, sometimes, rarely, etc.)

Further details not covering the abovementioned questions
-(post additional stuff here e.g mods used etc.)

-Big thank you to Engineer Weierstrass for creating his mod and allowing me to publish this mod. Check out his original mod!
Most stuff like the mods preview picture, unit models, unit cards, etc. are obviously made by him / I edited them to suit my ideas and goals.
-Model for Otomo Portuguese Musketeers are from Mount & Blade: Fire and Sword and was made available in S2 by Willhelm
-A certain person for beta testing and providing new ideas.
