Thank you guys

First I would like to say hi to all of you. I'm new member of the forum. I'm interested in moding 0 a.d. since I have great expiriance with modding games like Rome: Total war, Medieval II: Total war, some 2d games like Knights of honor and other... I red most of the topics about modding the game and I have some questions that I still cant find answers of. The first and most interesting to me is about the bones of the 3d models. Because in Total war games there is a "sceleton" with bones and you can get the bones from a CA's original model and export it, then you can create you own 3d model of a unit and attach its parts to different bones of the sceleton you had exported earlyer from the original game. From wahat I understand in 0 a.d. there is no such "sceleton" with bones? If there are no bones how does the engine knows what part of the model is left arm, or right foot... ? I really hope I got it wring, because it looks a bit strange that way. Second question is where can I find the game files on Ubuntu? Third question: are there any base models for 0 a.d. . I mean base model of a unit, ready to be imported in the game /eaven without texture, i just want to see the 3d model and how it looks like/ Cheers
