Weird Unit Skins, how do i stop them!

[crossclayton]

I have noticed that my units skins revert back to the default skin when i place them in fortify stance or sleep. To give an example of what i mean. Say i am american, when in use my american maceman has the unique american skin, but as soon as i fortify it reverts to the default maceman skin. This goes for every unit. Another example is the Town Watchmen from the a new dawn mod. The skin is fine until it goes into an idle status such as fortify or sleep or sentry, once it does it turns into a plane fluro pink unit in the shape of a default swordsmen. Why is this happening? I really would like to stop it cos im getting tired of seeing fluro pink people all over my maps.

ok solved my own problem, I had the animations turned off in graphics options. Next question is...is there anyway to stop this happening when I have animations turned off?

Probably not because that's the way the unit modders have made those units ie. they have some BtS default unit "inside" to allow animations to work correctly and when you turn off animations, the unit shows default model which is not always the new graphic... it's bit hard to explain since I'm not that familiar with animations.

the units don't have idle animations...

I have a similar problem with a newer unit (I think it's called something like Town Guard -- I'm not at home so I can't verify the name of the unit). Anyway, when it is fortified in a city, it is PINK. Has anyone else experienced this pink unit? The same unit for the AI's is also pink.
