Unit requests thread

i think there is a tripod unit in the fictionalization mod but i don't know if it's from the movie you mentioned :)

I downloaded the Fictionalization mod but could not find the tripod in it.:(

It does not appear in the pedia, so probably is not defined anywhere but the graphics are there.
 
I'm trying to practice with the skeleton swapping method, I will use the marine skeleton and the Zenith mesh, a work in progress and I'm moving slowly because of work:mad:; this weekend though I'll get something done

So you are trying to rig the mesh onto the marine skeleton then? Rigging is the single most tedious part of the process. :crazyeye:
 
Hello and Request of the day ;)
If these can be found somewhere, or someone could put these together - I would really appreciate it ;)

First of all, I looking for a Great General that would be appropriate for Early Industrial era - up till late 19th Century, because it sort of annoys me Great General goes from Medieval straight to WW2 look ;)

And second, looking for worker model that would be suitable for Industrial 19th Century/Early 20th century (so slightly LESS modern than vanilla modern worker.)

Thank You!

1: Bernie14's Union and Confederate generals would probably work. There's also AlazkanAssassin's Napoleonic General.

2: I'm not sure if this quite fits, but there's perhaps AlazkanAssassin's Railroad Worker.
 
Thank you for your reply!
Yeah I have seen these generals and I will use them.
My only issue, that they are too US specific, they missing the typical 19th century luxury in their uniform that European nations still had.
For example Alexander III of Russia (yeah I do realize he is a king, but still)

I will take a look at the worker ;)
 
What kfm do you want the unit to use? the current one (rifleman) or do you want me to try smth else? also, instead of deleting the Italian flag band you could edit the texture and make a very nice Team Colour band :)

Well ideally, putting him on medieval Great General kfm ;) Or perhaps on top of Napoleonic general linked above - that one has more era-appropriate sword.

You right about the team band.

I was also thinking, he could use a hat - the capo from basic rifleman would go well with the uniform. It could be edited slightly to make it more luxurious - like adding some sort of gold symbol in the middle to mimic national coat of arms symbol.
 
hi clanky4,
i don't know for sure, i just thought that it would look great as a unit :) the name is from the folder that kept the leaderhead's files. i have also tried to make playable units other leaderheads too. although they are incomplete, i'll see if i can find them and post some images :)



hi ChaosSlayer,
alright, i'll see what i can do. but notice that they are the actual leaderheads, meaning that the number of triangles is very high.

who? this guy? http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=3767
I don't think that he has high polygon count ;)
To re-insure what i am looking for is to put your uniform rifleman texture onto the great general from the link.
And optionally, add a capo hat from vanilla bts rifleman :0

Or, you can just post the rifleman you got, if you don't mind, and I will try to attach his texture onto the general ;)
 
:D:D no i mean my rifleman leaderhead unit is using the actual leaderhead model which has many triangles but i can try and see if i can somewhat reduce them without ruining the model :)

EDIT: I found another unfinished unit that i edited to use the Joan of Ark leaderhead :)

oops, sorry about that ;)
well I suppose its his head that has lots of features - but we can drop that, and just use the regular head from a regular rifleman - its his uniform that is of the most value ;)

The Joan looks awesome ;) too bad I don't know where to use her, but she probably be great in a mod like FFH

very good point! that will make things a lot easier :) i will add the default rifleman's head which already has the hat you like :)

the truth is i've been editing units that can be used in fantasy mods too :) . not that i was planning to make one but when i see an awesome looking unit, i try to make it look more awesome by adding or deleting stuff (or both). :)
 
Maybe smth like this? These units use the rifleman kfm and are not 100% completed but if you think you can use any of them i could try and see if it can use another kfm more appropriate to your needs.

The Santa Anna rifleman is great! I could certainly make use of him if you decide to make the unit available publicly. :goodjob:
 
hi thecowwarrior,
the unit is not quite completed yet :) . are you searching for smth specific, like a rifleman unit for a specific civilization?

Could use him as a flavor unit for Mexico. I would really like some unique Bolivarian/Gran Colombian units, if you have anything like that. :)
 
i do have some riflemen units that might interest you - just don't expect any historical accuracy :D .
all the textures and the heads are from other mods applied to default civ4 units which i edited :) . for example, the "mexican" & "incan" rifflemen are the grenadier unit which i edited to look like rifleman and to use the rifleman's kfm, the "argentinian" rifleman is the machinegunner edited in the same manner as above and as a bonus i added a colonization unit which uses the rifleman kfm :)
