Looks absolutely stunning! Seems all the grass has flowers in it?
Bored/Frustrated/Angry at inaccurate in game uniform?
Want to see another historical variation instead?
Or are you a someone who wish to show your work on how "it should have look like"?
Go and visit
TWC community ETW re-texture compilation!!
yes. Some climates hasnt flowers, as steppe who has 2 different graminae plants..
"...making the landscape looking like what you see in a tourist postcard."

Ok next please. One pic with the daisies or primroses please.
Sry but where have you seen flowers growing curved like yours (daisy pic as example)?
And do you really think all flowers should be only clones there is absolutely no variances in the most of your grass textures. Go out and meet mother nature she is the best teacher.

so what's the problem dude? why are u attackin me?
it's obvious i cannot recreate 100% real ambience, simply because med2 has engine limits and u should know that. I dont see even the purpose to put 3000 different flowers in the same texture, who will make battlefield close to a 1700 victorian style garden for sure, instead of a normal flowered field
you are not obliged to install or play the mod if u dont like it
Not gonna lie when I first saw a better grass mod I thought to myself who cares but having seen these pics WOW is all i got to say
Check out my AAR on the Makedonia Spartan league based off the campaign
"Take of a Makedonia Spartan"
Indeed it is obvious you cannot recreate 100% real ambience.
Then i see it as an insult if someone speak with me without respect so please stop your slang speech and calling me dude.
I never attacked you personally and i just asked you for some reference files of your work.
I will look at your files but i have already seen much better work with an older tw engine.
If someone makes a mod and calls it BETTER Grass (IMO an insult to any of former work by CA skinners), had the time for dev (several months) and then start here to cry if someone makes a critical comment about his mod well then make a BETA for your next project or take more care if you make textures.
@Wolfcoat You have never seen a sith angry before or ? So i can tell you i am completely relaxed atm.
Regards A.U.
this point is clear
i dont cry if someone criticizes me. It's since 2005 i mod things so no problem about "eventual critics"
reference: CliffRose flowers for example... i went to greece 2 years ago and it's considered one of their national flowers.. grows on arid - semi-arid grounds conditions, findable massively close to the sea or hills. blossoms in march-june, one flower blossoms a day. It is used in incense and in older days goats were let into the bushed and the flowers stuck onto them and then they were picked off the animals. In modern days pieces of cloth and leather are dragged through the fields
Greece second Med2 editor is considered "arid", so i chose to give that to the climate.
is it enough?
not my problem at all. As i said in BG sub forum, medII grass is planned thru vertical-horizontal-diagonal lines and it's not developed uniformely as CA made in RTW
Did u prefer i make 3d models of flowers in game, who med II will consider 30000% 3d objects? with the result of soldiers who beats their body against them, simply cuz med2 will see flowers exactly as a tree or an fixed obstacle
"better grass" not means better in the planet. Is it better than vanilla med2 one? yes
thanks
Wow... that looks really awesome, davide! Nice work!
@ Agent: You do realize that the title is "Better Grass", and not, "Best Grass", right? And I hope that you also realize that that was not criticism, but rather an attack. Saying "it sucks" isn't a valid criticism, and neither is criticizing things that are hardcoded. Maybe next time you could make specific suggestions for how to make it better, if it gets under your skin that much. Cheers!
