Thanks. Yes, I know it's just art, but the art is tied to xml. If I can't see the art, and move it around, then I can't rearrange and customize the xml's...or pick and choose what art I want to use.
It's easier to use someone else's mod for art ideas, rather than search the forums for art.

Hi The Snug,
it should unpack with PakBuild without problems, at least I've never encountered anything with unpacking (each and any) FPK files. Please make sure you have good versions and doing the unpacking right (see thread mentioned above).

I still think some Riflemen and maybe even Infantries need to be upscaled a bit (to 0.46 or so). The American and German Riflemen, for example, look a bit undernourished. I think that the graphical illusion of light objects looking bigger then dark manifests here also. I can do that myself, of course, wihout much hassle.

Cool stuff. Avian how exactly fo you control where and how much the different animals spawn?

As I did not want to change the default BtS ways, I used the Terrainnatives and Featurenatives (XML). The idea is that you add less terrain/feature possibilities to animals you want to appear less. Also, I added some restrictions, so you should never see a e.g. Polar Bear wonder into a desert/grassland/plains/jungle (although he can still hop the forests not to limit it too much) or a Lion into tundra/snow.
(I also have further ideas as to give the nearest city a small(i.e. 2-3 or 4 at max) food boost when an animal is defeated, possibly double with some Hunter unit, but that has to wait for a next version. )

Thanks, sounds simple enough. Any idea if theres a similar method limiting where ethnic goody huts can appear? Like if ihad igloos in addition to normal tribal villages , to make them appear in appropriate terrain.

Don't forget on your next update that some awesome dude made some American and Dutch industrial units that I think would be good for this mod. I can't quite remember his name but I hear he's a pretty awesome guy...

Nope, this was planned on my part! I'm onto updating VD as soon as you're ready, Geo!

Could you please upload those you've finished, as Geo's about to finish his EC this weekend and I plan on a VD update soon.
I would like to include all your optimized units, and in case you'll still be working on some, I'll be more than happy to include those in a future update!
