    Default Skin pack

    hi,

    I have created a skin pack what aims at realistic appearance of middleage soldiers.
    It includes all early units of France and England.

    Looks good! The subdued and "dusty" colours kinda fits the Middle Ages.

    Is it the same as the Stainless Steel one?

    [EDIT]Let me rephrase that: Is it the same as the one you made for the Stainless Steel mod? Considering the steel in that particular skinpack doesn´t look especially stainless -which I mean as a compliment[/EDIT]

    You seem to be about the only skin modder around pursuing the idea that things were not perfectly clean and tidy in the Middle Ages. Besides from people generally not caring that much for hygiene back on those days, after a long march for a soldier in a dusty or muddy environment, and then a long battle, it couldn't possibly be so. Your troops come across as being covered with dust and dirt. I think you add a little bit to realism there.
    The ideal for a game like this, however, would be that it shows a gradual transition for the soldiers from a clean appearance with full colours (newly washed clothes) in the beginning of the battle to the dirty, bloody and torn appearance in the end. M2TW tries to to something of the sort with that blood-splattered appearance some soldiers get when fighting for some time. I would have been great if this effect could be fine tuned a little and include worn and torn gear, and dirt, depending on the circumstances.

    I wish someone would reskin the scots . Those medieval kilts just did not exist. The film Braveheart is unhistoric in nearly every way.
    The scots wore leine , a type of padded long shirt. Sites such as the Scottish Tartan Museum give some accounts of the development of the later kilt.

    Dull is not realistic , look at the wars of the roses most plate armours were painted to protect from rust and in the middle ages showing your colours was common , soldiers took care of there armour as in most cases it
    was there tools of the trade.
    People automatically think that because its middle ages or dark ages that armour was dull and rusty , How wrong can they be.
