Absolutely wonderful! The Chinese one is a masterpiece! The Highlander could be used for the Celts

I concur. The Chinese one is hands down, IMO, the best!

 

[Impaler[WrG]]

Amazing what can be done with a re-skin and a new hat, these need to get into the Art Style mods ASAP.

 

[GeneralMatt]

Very nice. Hopefully it will inspire me now that I have my PC back.

 

[bernie14]

thanks to all!!!

 

[ohcrapitsnico]

The chinese and highlander ones are really awesome. Thanks for all your all work!

 

[Quueg]

Agreed. Very nice work.

hmm... Could you just briefly explain how implement them? i have only experience with ones that contain a .kfm file.

i tried the chinese grenadier like this:

<UnitArtInfo>
			<Type>ART_DEF_UNIT_CHIGR</Type>
			<Button>,Art/Interface/Buttons/Units/Grenadier.dds,Art/Interface/Buttons/Unit_Resource_Atlas.dds,7,6</Button>
			<fScale>0.44</fScale>
			<fInterfaceScale>1.0</fInterfaceScale>
			<bActAsLand>0</bActAsLand>
			<bActAsAir>0</bActAsAir>
			<NIF>Art/Units/Chigr/Chigr.nif</NIF>
			<KFM>Art/Units/Grenadier/Grenadier.kfm</KFM>
			<SHADERNIF>Art/Units/Grenadier/Grenadier_FX.nif</SHADERNIF>
			<ShadowDef>
				<ShadowNIF>Art/Units/01_UnitShadows/UnitShadow.nif</ShadowNIF>
				<ShadowAttachNode>BIP Pelvis</ShadowAttachNode>
				<fShadowScale>0.95</fShadowScale>
			</ShadowDef>
			<fBattleDistance>0.35</fBattleDistance>
			<fRangedDeathTime>0.31</fRangedDeathTime>
			<bActAsRanged>1</bActAsRanged>
			<TrainSound>AS2D_UNIT_BUILD_UNIT</TrainSound>
			<AudioRunSounds>
				<AudioRunTypeLoop/>
				<AudioRunTypeEnd/>
			</AudioRunSounds>
		</UnitArtInfo>

but still looks like normal grenadier. so only the .nif file is taken from chigr-drawer. i don´t know what file´s doing what, but this way it doesn´t work... thanks


screenshots look great though, btw

 

[Chuggi]

you need to change the <shadernif> to correspond with the <nif>

 

[Ermelinho]

you need to change the <shadernif> to correspond with the <nif>

ok! thank you! thought there had to be a ...._FX.nif file.

 

[Chuggi]

That one probably is the FX nif file I think (if it contains gloss and team colour). But you only need one nif or the other (or both if you like). The difference is if you have them only pointing to the standard nif you won't get team colour or gloss. FX is the important one.
