[Graphic Mod] Varietas Delectat v9.2 [civ specific unit sets]

Guys/girls,
what is your opinion on seZereth's Blood mod? Would you like to see it incorporated into VD or should everyone install it on their own?

Wouldn't it be a lot of work to add it to the hundreds & hundreds of units in VD?

Less than you might think. As the units share animations I assume it is almost the same work as adding it to regular civ.

Yes, the only problem is if there's some custom animation, but for most of the units it works of the bat.
It's really easy to install and see the impact instantly.
I might leave it to Modern Era, and have VD without it for the purists.
 
& MEE 5 & the Hungary Mod?

I intend to release VD and MEE really soon.
And after that I'll start working on the Hungary mod, there's some really cool new units waiting to be added.

Eh, I turned off combat animations long ago so for me this has no effect except a 1% increase in bug chances ;)
 
I don't think, Civ does need blood effects. It has nothing of a splatter game. But I will use VD5 if it is with or without the blood mod anyway.
 
I stumbled upon it somewhere when I made a systematic search of units, mods and users, but I forgot to note whose contribution it was... My best guess would be The Coyote?, bernie14?. I have it in a pack with a Union Cannon, a Parrott Cannon and also a Napoleonic cannon. If someone knows the author(s), please tell us.

if you want to do it and have problems adding the blood effect to other units, ask, it´s an simply add to the kf files in nifscope (it´s described in my nifscope tutorial - seZereth also included example txt keys in his package to which nodes he linked the effect)

edit: updated spearman general nif (only added gloss to the shield and made a minor adjustment to the position)

Great, thanks!
I'll most probably give a try to the blood effects after I uploaded VD5, and if I'm stuck, I know who to turn to;) :goodjob:
 
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

didnt see the mammoth in the changelog though :confused:

Sorry, but it's missing only from the changelog, not from VD!!!
I'll update the changelog.

I am afraid there seems to be a problem with the new version of Varietas Delectat. I have a very high end system, a Core 2 Quad Processor with Vista, and have been using the previous version for a long time with no problems. I installed Varietas Delectat 5.0 and MEE last night, and have started 4 games with different civilizations, and it starts out okay, but after I get 4 or 5 cities started and get a little ways into the Classic Era the game crashes to the desktop, and when I try in load any of the saved games after reloading, they also crash to the desktop. Could there be one or more specific units causing it?

I love this mod, but may have to use the old version if I keep getting crashes.

Please attach a savegame so I can check it! It might be that some references are bad...
 
Okay, here is one, I had already deleted the others, but here is a new one I just started, click next turn and it will crash.

Hi,

actually I managed to run quite a few turns ahead (with Autoplay)
Also I ran some games with Autoplay with quite a few civs without problems.

Are you sure you're not running anything else? Something in your CustomAssets folder?
You installed the mod as instructed?

You might want to check the save I made quite a few turns later (attached to post)

Also, is anyone else having issues?

That is strange that you are not having the problem.

Here is another, didn't get as far with thiso one:

Under custom assets I did change the flags with the BTS Flag mod, and changed a few specific ones.
