Here's how I've managed to get the Roman characters working so far.

Firstly, I think I created a new ai .lua script in the Classics folder of the scriptbank using the Crusader ai .lua script. You just need to copy and paste the file back into the same Classics folder, then open it in Notepad and rename all of the parts in the .lua file and also the filename itself where it's 'crusader' to 'roman'. After this, change the numbers in the SetAnimationFrames(211,232) to those here in brackets.



Next skip to the attack sequence section and change the animations to the numbers as follows:



Some of these settings might not be spot on, but they're as close as I could work out from Fragmotion and my limited attempts. One problem is that I can't seem to get the death animation set working, which is strange. Here are the settings for the animations for the .fpe files.



Again, these might not be spot on so any improvements gladly received! It's all a bit of a work in progress, but it seems to be progressing so I thought I'd share what I had so far. If anyone can get the death animations working, it would be great to know how!

I tried following the steps you gave but it didn't work. Am I making a mistake somewhere?

Sorry, I've been away for a bit. I might not have explained setting up the new file very well. You need to make a copy of the file "ai_classiccharacter_crusader.lua" in the scriptbank/Classics folder, then rename the new file "ai_classiccharacter_roman.lua". You must then change this new file with the edits I've posted above, and then when you add a Roman character entity into the main engine map, change the script call to your new 'ai_classiccharacter_roman.lua' script rather than just using the default. I think that should do it, but if you need any other help, just drop me a PM.
