Thread: 1st Italian Campaign French troops retexture

    Default 1st Italian Campaign French troops retexture

    1st Italian Campaign French troops retexture


    My idea for the mod was to add more variations to French Troops which fought in 1st Italian Campaign during Napoleonic Wars to show how. This should be more accurate as Italian French Revolutionary army was low on supplies of uniform and footwear,forced to wear scavenged civilian clothes.
    I was strongly inspired by works of Keith Rocco, his Napoleon's 1st Italian Campaign artwork particularly.

    Don't judge my work too badly, as this is my first ever modding experience and I've never used Photoshop for edditing textures either. ENJOY!
    Screenshots:
    Armed Citizenry

    Militia

    National Guard

    Revolutionary Infantry

    Line infantry

    Grenadiers

    Don't be confused by not all of the grenadiers wearing bearskins - soldiers had to wear it only if they could afford one themselves.
    Chasseurs

    Artillery Crew

    Dragoons

    Horse Chasseurs

    At that time, shakos weren't widespread in European armies and ,in my personal opinion, helmets suit better to the period depicted in the game.

    That is amazing friend.
    I was disgusted by the tragic barefoot clowns of the original game and now you solved this issue once and for all.
    Very realistic looking textures which I would like to use in my upcoming DarthMod Napoleon with full credits to you and your work.
    I hope you have no problem.

    Hi JustDoit:

    First of all, congrats... is a great job, I enjoy it very much seeing this textures in battle. Perhaps to be simply, but awesome.

    But I have a little problem... no sound I hear, in battle nor in the campaign... You can tell me where I commited some error?... I have this in the user.script:

    Code:
    mod "JustDOit's Italian_French_retexture_mod.pack";
    mod "Primergy_Grassmod.pack";
    mod NTW3_Projectiles.pack;
    mod NTW3_sp_stripped.pack;
    mod NTW3_FX1_v1.pack;
    mod NTW3_FX2_v1.pack;
    mod stripped_NTW3.pack;
    mod "UltimateSoundMod";
    mod "Bullethits_mod1";
    ... and saved in Unicode codification.

    the NTW3 packs (with or without quotes, the problem is same), I copied from barebones, if I dont bad remember... anyway, perhaps you already know... What I make bad ?

    Thank you in advance.

    greetings.

    Hello!

    It is quite strange that you've encountered a sound problem as my mod only effects textures.
    When you turn on NTW ,then move to Windows desktop and go back to the game it could turn the sounds down.Check your sound mixer after entering NTW . Also check sound options in-game.
    If it doesn't help:
    First,turn all the other mods off to see how it works.

    But,if it remains silent,try moving my mod to the bottom of user.script.


    Hope this helps
    Please ,tell me how it goes

    Apparently only works while only without the addition of other sub-mods ... so far no problem, does not seem so bad the original game on the effects ... but in other respects more precise visual (uniforms very generic, for example ... or swords that seem made of wood ...).

    This is the only way I found to play with your textures, smooth:

    Code:
    mod "JustDOit's Italian_French_retexture_mod.pack";
    #mod "UltimateSoundMod.pack";
    #mod "Primergy_Grassmod.pack";
    #mod NTW3_Projectiles.pack;
    #mod NTW3_sp_stripped.pack;
    #mod NTW3_FX1_v1.pack;
    #mod NTW3_FX2_v1.pack;
    #mod stripped_NTW3.pack;
    Thanks for sharing, and waiting for more

    Thank's for the feedback
    As I wrote in the description,aim of the mod was to add more variations to uniforms, not the weapons.
    And it is my first experience doing this stuff,too.

    hummm ... I just read a post of your, in April this year (if I remember correctly), where you say something about a pack of textures that does not work, then you've solved updating your original game...

    Maybe my problem has been the same, is the first time I play NTW and had no idea that there were patches, now I'm updating my game, and tomorrow I'll try all the mini-mods all together to see what happens.

    ... sorry for the ignorance .

    greetings.

    I'd love to ,but I've encountered a problem. Normal_dds don't show up right in the game and I also get another texture related bug,so next mod will be postponed until all the issues are solved,unfortunately.
