COLONIALISM TOTAL WAR

This mod plays in the timeframe from 1618 to 1773, so from the beginning of the colonial Age, except the spanish and portuguese.
It will contain only new units, a lot of new buildings, new campaignmap and new factions, like the swedish and the dutch.
Every faction, except Portugal and the Kingdom of Spain, start with 1-3 regions in the new world.
It will be really difficult for you to set a stronghold in the new world, because Native Tribes and less population will challenge you. You can also try to get a colony as a historically "wrong" faction such as Venice or Savoye.

Some of the Units are partly from XVII century mod, but im allowed to use them. Mostly they are remodelled or reskinned, but still its a really big help that i may use them here.

Im still searching for a second 3d Artist, and animation Artist.

As Anmiationsdirector (is there's a more elegant title ?) would be this as the task:

- An animation where someone dismounts from his horse, and an animation where someone mounts...

- New death animation

- Fight new battle animations::

- Injured animation ( there will be injuries in the mod )


if ye are interested only for parts, for example only the dragoon hat, then write you anyway =)

i hope someone wants,
Nessj999

1st not possible

2nd not sure

3rd possible

4rd not possible

[nessj999]

1th is possible...the animation is, bringing it in the game maybe not...

2nd is sure... in the Hardgame mod its done

4nd is also possible, look at the animation when someone is hit by cannon, and
lies on the ground an stands up.
When you make the lying animation really long ist great, really thats possible,
i just need the animation itself.
Bringing it in the game will be my task, i think this should work...

[IVIarkI2I]

horses aren't possible for 100 percent

[Odoaker]

I am the mapper of that mod. And there is still a good work in progress. I warmly recommend you, Nessj to offer your WIP Mod here, like I did

Here, you can publish your modifyer profile, if you like to: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=364
and this is the right place too, to ask for team members.

[nessj999]

[Hereje]

what the hell are the frenchs doing in Catalonia?

anyway, really nice job! + rep!

[Nevada]

Nice to see you guys here, too.

But, maybe, you should do something on improving your 1st post, maybe bringing the image Odoaker has posted into it as some kind of "opening grabber"

[nessj999]

@nevada i will do this
thanks. i will improve the 1.st post.

@hereje
sorry, made an error there
france doesnt have catalonia, just if ludwig XIV will
decide to conquer it

[Wert]

Have you created any units yet?

[nessj999]

@wert

yes i did... we have early units, the iroquois seen on the picture above,
we have new musketeers, some cuirassers, and kind of line infantry, but that has still
to be improved, and there still missing much units.

[Nirnaeth Arnoediad]

Hum, the New-sctoland province is during this time "l'Acadie", a french, and not a scottish, colony. And scotland is not really a faction, it depends of the King of England, no ?

I'm very happy to see this mod, but maybe could you try to work with THE FRONTIER ? Your projects are very similar.

[Hereje]

Do you have the map already done?

[nessj999]

@Nirnaeth
i offered them to help, but they didnt need me they said, and also dont wanted
to support me, so no....but they were not unfriendly they just dont wanted

@hereje
the map itself is done, but there are missing many regions, and the ground types and climates and heights
still have to be improved, by my mapper, Odoaker...

[Wert]

So how ise the progress? any news?

[Nirnaeth Arnoediad]

You could work with the "age of enlightment" mod team.

[nessj999]

@ wert :
yes im having progress, but odoaker has a problem with his PC and needs to buy a new one, so the progress is slower then it should.
but i have few more units, the factions are nearly ready, and i have concepts, which just need to be scripted, for slavetrade f. example...

@nirnaeth :
yeah i pm him right now, the leader...

[nessj999]

so, im still working on it but age of enlightenement dont want to really work together, but still we exchange knowledge / ideas.
so, yesterday i finished the curiassiers of the early period, i guess i will make a preview soon...
