What do you think folks?! THIS IS MY LARGEST CONTRIBUTE! For cool3a2 :goodjob: :king:
Please read the file !IMPORTANT! included in every zip.
 
Some of them are very well disguised. Nice work!

Do you take requests? :D
 
Firstly I'd like to thank you for your big efforts. You have created even more LH's than I've requested. Nevertheless I'd like to give some suggestions. Firstly your colours are a bit lurid. Besides that Árpád is very well. This is how I would imagine a leader of tribes of horseman :goodjob:. About Szent István / Stephen I.: I like his face very much. He looks very charismatic. What I personaly don't like, is the colour of his beard. It was much better on your preview you sent me some weeks ago (shall I post it here?). Maybe It could have been a bit brighter (I mean the one on the older preview) At the moment it looks a bit nonnatural, it's very eye-catching. The other thing with István are his clothes. Did you invented them or did you have a source for that? I don't like this blue, and the clothes could be a bit more pompous since he was a king (I thought on something like the Hunyadi Mátyás LH by eznaz wears). The last thing I'd like to suggest, is to make the textures of the clothes of Széchenyi a bit more detailled.

It's true: I haven't tried them from inside the game, but this is my first impression. Maybe this sounds a bit unfair, since you've done a lot of work and it's very easy for me to speak / write that way. Sorry if it appears that I am dismissive. I didn't want to say they are ugly, they aren't. I will use all three I have mentioned above also if you won't do any changes to them. Sólyom and Béla IV. both look very well. Unfortunatly Hungary would be overpresented if I would include them in my mod. On the other side it's hard to characterize the quality of Sólyoms work at the moment. I could imagine to create scenarios with both leaders. A modern Hungary would be much better represented by Sólyom than by the liar Gyurcsány / El Quro who is destroying our beloved country (sorry, MSZP voters, but you must be blind if you still support him, ups... I am writing about politics again...).

BTW: is there a chance to see Kossuth as well?

Again: thank you very much for your efforts :thanx:! You will be sincerly credited in my mod. I am happy! :worship:
 
the concepts and re-working of the meshes are TRULY TOP NOTCH, although (in my very humble opinion), the textures could use a little polish....
 
These are very good, some of your best work! As said earlier, however, the textures could use some detail. Simply re-coloring their already made textures (using Paint Shop or something to edit the colors) always makes it more realistic. The best one in my opinion is Szecheny. Its very original, great job!
 
the disguising of the LHs is brilliant, but there is stil need for work on the textures. :)
 
OK, I have an idea about the colors. cool3a2, wait please, Im uploading the diplolps for magyars: early, middle, and late.
 
Esnaz made a Hunyadi Mátyás LH, you can load it from here: click!
 
Some one needs to make a Attila the Hun.. I was doing a hungarian girl for a while, he is on their coins, kind of a foke hero...
 
As you said Attila was a Hun, not a Magyar. Although there is a serious theory that Huns and Magyars are related and a lot of Hungarians believe this and also some researchers from outside Hungary, there is no real proof. With this your request is not on the right place, I think. Nevertheless I'd like to see an Attila LH, too, because I thought on making a Hun Mod.
 
there were other theories such that the Székely people (the Hungarians' "brother nation" who live in Transylvania) were the descendants of the Huns. but i wasn't true. the hunnish tribes had never established, so we've got very vew information about them. other rumours said that they were christian at the late times, but there isn't real proof. they were absorbed by more organized polities.
the HUNgarian name comes from a turkish phrase "onugor" which means "ten tribes" so nothing to do with the huns. it was only the etymology of the tribes name, but i think there isn't any real relation between the huns and hungarians. anyway who knows?
 
Hey Titus. Seems like you want to have some hungarian leaderheads. If you tell us which one you need, I or maybe avain or mamba could reupload it for you. We have used some of them for our mods. I could give you:
- Széchenyi (overdone)
- Kossuth
- Árpád
- Matthias Corvinus

Zerver is working on an updated version of Szent István (Saint Stephen I.), I am sure he will help you on that once it is ready.
