This unit is my version of a generic Modern-era paratrooper. It is based off the marine, and uses Snafusmith's modern weapons pack for the G36.

I made a new version with the M16 and the navyseal as the base unit.

This is version A

Version B added 4:24 PM

What do you think?

I am downloading now, thx.

Nice one... tho a helmet is more convincing in combat situations. ;)

i think that another version is in order. Perhaps based off the navy seals.

This is a great unit! Have you thought about making this, but minus the parachute? If you do, the kinda look like U.S. Air Force Pararescue.

Check out the new version i just added! It has a helmet this time!!

I like version A, alot better, just my opinion. And i already have it in my MOD, thx.

Could the A wearing version use team color for the beray, that would look nice.

Very, very nice work. I'm especially glad some use is coming from the weapons pack. I was worried for a while.

download the second revolution 2.0 and see where alot of your work has ended up! :)

hmm. just open the beret.dds file and make it all transparent.

Unfortunaly I dont have anything to edit .dds files with, I'm a code monkey not an artist :scan:

Try GIMP 2.0 (http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/). i never did this stuff before, and i just messed with the program for awhile and learned.

Before I get this unit... Can it really paradrop?

Not really, no. The unit will replace the marine or navy seal graphically. As of yet, no civ4 unit graphically paradrops, and you won't see the code for it public in a while.

Hi Garrett,

Can you provide specific instructions on how to install this unit in Warlords (1st Pack with the beret)? I'm reading Sovarn's installation guide and it seems outdated... adding to the confusion, you have so many files in the zip, I'm not sure where they are all supposed to go

Here is an excellent tut for this!]]

much honor! youre very welcome! make sure you check my very latest units, you may see some new ones i made that will be useful.

It looks great!

I just added it to my mod :)

im glad you liked it. i hope i will get some more units in soon (im running out of ideas :lol: )

It looks great! :eek: And I'll use it in my Mod, of course!

But can you give it a real paradrop animation? Is it possible to take the animation of the paratrooper from BTS and give it your new cool unit?

Thanks.

i might consider that soon. i wonder if it would work....

:drool: is only for bts or does it work with vanilla too?

this unit does not use the paratroop animations...yet

so as is, it will work for vanilla.

It looks great! :eek: And I'll use it in my Mod, of course!

As I see you made a Marine Paratrooper with paradrop animation! :eek: Can you animate this unit too, please. :goodjob:

yeah, im gonna release an updated version of this, separately :)

Looks Good!!!
Call me old fashioned (which I am), I am happy playing the original version but am not opposed to updating the units. Will your Parra units work with the original??(pre BTS)

this particular unit will work with any version of Civ4.
but when i add paradrop animations, it will only work with BtS. But this unit will stay unmodified, i will make a whole new unit and thread for the version that has the animations :)
