Unit Request Thread

[labriejp]

Yep, it is in progress but I am having issues with some of its custom animations (linking them to proper effects). I can't use an existing CiV model because the gun turrets are in different locations. Hopefully I will have it by this weekend, maybe sooner.

You are a beast

In an effort to finish my upcoming Naval Units mod with some new art, I would like to post up here again for some unit art requests.

Need Art for:

Seawolf Class Submarine

Virginia Class Submarine

Ford Class Carrier

Avengers type Helicarrier

Retexture/Reskin of Charles de Gaulle and Queen Elizabeth Class Carrier to have more texture detail

To finish my air units mod I need art for:

B-1 Bomber

Any "future" airplanes

Would any 3D modelers out there be able to help me out on this?

A big shout out to Nomad or What and Wolfdog for creating some cool custom art so far for these mods

If you can find existing 3D models for any of these it would be very helpful. Concerning "future airplanes" the existing CiV XCOM Skyranger can be extracted from the paradrop unit. It would probably need effects added to it to be something other than a troop transport though.

Spoiler :

 

[labriejp]

that would be pretty cool to have that as an airplane.

From what I have seen no art exists for the aforementioned submarines and airplanes..

For those, an artist can take a Civ V model that is similar and just reshape it a bit, animations would relatively stay the same (Especially with the subs)

We need some more modern units.

Dreadnoughts WWI era, Japan, Russia, Germany etc. I think we only have British. Maybe someone made some, but don't remember where.

Light cruisers from WWI and WWII would be cool.

Can someone please make me a great war infantry replacement? Here's the icon for it.

There's an Arabian Great War Infantry in this pack, and I think it'd work nicely.

Nokmirt,

I have some Steam Powered Battleships (pre and during WWI), WWII era battleships, and a few light cruisers in my Naval mod. If you are interested in that.

Thank you!

I figured this would be the most appropriate place for this request. It's going to be a tad long, so bear with me. I won't be upset if people glance over this and tl;dr it.

Let me explain my purpose first. I'm trying to simply finish out the unit types across the entire game. That is to say, I want EVERY Civ to have access to EVERY unit type in EVERY era; Scouts upgrading to things that are "better scouts" instead of archers, Chariots upgrading to things that are better mobile ranged units instead of knights, etc. So what I'm looking for are units that closely fit the "generic European" visual aesthetic of the current units every Civ has access to.

I'm looking for these units on my own of course, but I figured some people here might already know where to locate these assets or, even better, have better suggestions for "generic" units of each category. To that end, the following is a list of types of units not represented in the base game, the era in which they're missing, and my "suggested request;" the unit type I'm currently looking for to fill that role. Again, if you think you have a better idea to fill that position, I'm very happy to hear it. Some of the roles are very difficult to think of units for (hence why many of them aren't in the base game).

So if you know where I can find any of these units as existing models or you know of an existing model that might be a better fit, please let me know!

Scout Upgrades

1. Medieval; Adventurer? Axe-wielding unarmored man? Might be able to just use Seaxmen from Fall of Rome scenario.
2. Renaissance; Explorer? A generic "conquistador" on foot?
3. Industrial; Skirmisher? Non-uniformed riflemen; could feasibly use Minutemen model but would still need icons/graphics for it.
4. Modern; Recon. Maybe a Rambo-looking guy to make him look distinct from other infantry?
5. Information+; SpecOps? Maybe converted SEAL model from Civ4?

Chariot Upgrades

1. Classical/Medieval; Generic Mounted Crossbowman/Archer?
2. Renaissance/Industrial; Cuirassier?
3. Modern; SPG? (I found a StuG model but it's got German icons on it; need generic)
4. Information+; Harrier Jet? Could use Jet Fighter as filler but really would like proper harrier model.

Looking for siege weapons, anything like these would be awesome:

OR

Both would bring extra Gold.
Thank you!

Yes I will look into it. Thank you.

I'm actually working on a mod for chariot upgrades that you may be interested in.

Do you have a thread for it? If not, I'm curious as to what units you're using and at what techs.

 

[DoctorMcGann]

Yep, I've got a thread.

For the Scout line I'd go

*Scout
*Ranger
*Explorer
*Cartographer
*Trailblazer
*Spec Ops

 

[Hypereon]

Would anyone be interested of making some zouaves, or point me a model suitable for recoloring? The sergent and "en tenue de campagne" version are those needed. Thanks in advance!

 

[Tarmont]

Can someone convert the Asian Caravel or Trireme from here? Or at least point me towards a good tutorial because I tried to convert it myself and...

Let's just say I'm not good at this.

 

[Civitar]

Would this suit your purposes?

 

[Tarmont]

Not exactly; that's my fallback (Another modded civ already uses it). In reality I'd need one of those but with a trebuchet coupled in (Any kind of ship with a catapult-esque siege engine on it would work really, do you have any of these planned?), but I figured no one would waste time making that for me and a civ4 convertion would be simpler.
