QCCC Welcome.

Questions, Comments, Concerns, Criticisms.

Please note that the Infantry reskin on the sniper is the work of the master reskinner danrell, and that his gun is the work of asio3x. The MP44 of the Nazi is also from asioasioasio. The Modern Sniper's body is the British SAS by Mozza, which i repurposed for the Modern Sniper. His weapon is from Zerver's Thai unit's pack, while the scopes are from nautil's Su-47. The skin on the Modern Infantry is from Master Lexx's Greenmod. The G36 is from snafusmith. The musketeer reskin on the Royal Guardsmen is from swarog's Guardsmen of the Cardinal.

Cool units, I'll be sure to use some in my upcoming mod and modules.

Any chance you can turn that mounted Landschnekt into a cuirassier or give him a gun or something?

 

[mechaerik]

Thanks . If you want, i could make the mounted Landschnekt into a cuirassier, it shouldn't take too long now that i know the principles of re-boning.

 

[Bakuel]

Good to see you making units mechaerik! And taking requests!

[darkecl]

great thanks for make me happy

 

[Zerver]

Just great

Two more Border Reivers, one based on the Cossack and one with the explorer instead of the Landskentch.
And a new Pirate, plus a Combat Engineer (reskinned engineer with an MP5 using Marine animations).

Unzip to the same directory as MechaUnits1.
These will be included in MechaUnits2.

Nice units there, and some of them are quite imaginative.

 

[The Monster]

The Hakenkreuz on the Nazi left armband is counter-clockwise, while IRL they went clockwise and were only worn on the left arm, not the right. They also seem to be at the wrong angle - on the armbands and flags, the lines should all go at 45-degree angles rather than straight up/down and left/right.

 

[mechaerik]

Yes, i know. However the way the dds file is read, i can't make it so thats its only on one arm; both arms draw from the same source. And yes, it should be in a 45 degree angle, but i can't get it to rotate well without making it look really pixelated and ugly.

PS: on a further note, MechaUnits2 is almost complete, it's actually been complete for a week, but I keep learning how to do new things, so i'm constantly making new units and updating the older ones.

Well, in that case (and if I remember my history classes well enough) they should be considered Indian units. IIRC the Swastika cross was an inverted copy of an ancient Indian symbol... it represented "strength" (again, IIRC).

 

[mechaerik]

The swastika is actually found worldwide; it's an ancient symbol that i personally think looks pretty cool, but it's recently become associated with the Nazi Party, as the Nazi's adopted it as their party badge. They've been found everywhere, from japan to europe to pre-columbus South America. You might be correct, but then a lot of people would ask why I put a swastika on an indian unit.

Epic win for the Holy Hand Grenade alone, but they're all good!

 

[mechaerik]

Actually, TheBladeRoden's Killer "White" Rabbit inspired me to make a counter to it; and not finding a holy hand grenade in the db, i resolved to make one.

 

[Bahmo]

Could you please post a picture of the sniper?

 

[mechaerik]

If you mean the regular sniper, its the first unit; just a reskinned (from danrell) infantry with a different gun (from asioasioasio).

If you mean the Modern Sniper, it was actually completed (like the pirate) in the 1 or 2 day period after i took the screenshot but before i uploaded the file.

 

[Flying Pig]

Does the thing that looks like a SEAL use marine anims? It stands a bit straighter than the SEAL.

 

[mechaerik]

It does; its the Modern Infantry, reskin from the GreenMod, and the Gun by snafusmith (Its all labeled in the included .txt file)
