This is a French Re-Skin Mod for my own pleasure which improves historical accuracy. If anyone else is interested, feel free to use it. (NB: This is just a patch file that just reskins existing units)
Focus is on French Bourbon / pre-1789 (revolutionary) units that encompasse the majority of the ETW period.
The Skins are my best efforts (with the models provided) to replicate historical French units of the period.
STATUS:
April 2012: Back tinkering. Hope to have a few new units in coming weeks. V0.93 have a reskined Line infantry and General unit, both WIP.
July 2012: French Unit Roster completed. Making final adjustments before uploading.
August 2012: Critical Hard Drive failure. Lost all work .. apologies to all
DISCLAIMER:
As a perfectionist, I feel the need to mention that this is a work in progress and there are parts of each skin I am still not happy with. I hope to address each of these over time.
