PHOENIX SKIN PACK V3 FOR SS 4.1

[phoen!x]

PHOENIX SKIN PACK (for SS 4.1)

Version 3

Released

Almost every unit has been improved. And I have added heavy knights, horses and all late late units of following factions:

Denmark, England, France, HolyRomanEmpire, Spain, Rebels, Mercenaries, Scotland (only soon units)

I also reskinned all officers and weapons.


Mud--> Blood--> Splatter

During the fight the units go full of mud first then start bleeding and after all they get really hurt ugly. Best of all is you see like the woulds of the units suddenly appear after a strike.
And this is "eye candy" because you will wait to see how your soldier did his job properly !

See a picture of the mud:


this is really a new level of realism. You see what happens during a hard fight.

see the pictures of the skins:


see how shiny glimmering masses of solid steel clash on each other


impressive, isn t it ?


look at the faction signs


frightening...


the rifles are changed already, it s a sooner version. But anin t those late "War Farmhands" pretty ugly...


look at the mails.


a sea of authentic steel


the merciless Danes

feel the realism !

Very good work Phoenix, + rep. One question though. Is there still a wide variety of shields and body textures? I like alot how much variation there is in the 4.0 units.

[phoen!x]

yes, of course. Variety is very important. Actually I mostly changed colors not patterns.
Except some nice exceptions.

Why do all the units look like they've been rolling around in a mud hole all day? I like the fact that you gave them more dirt effects but I think its a little overboard.

Yeah, I think you should make it a bit less uniform so it doesn't completely cover their whole bodies. Looks like they all smeared themselves with crap or something.

It s mud and dust, which had been whirled up due to the fighting.
Besides it s impossible do decrease the level of it because it s part of the game engine.



@Chola
I don t see the problem with the archers. Did you see them in game ?



Maybe the Gothic knights are a bit too weather beaten. I can make an update if you like.

[jenslysell]

can someone tell me how to install this please ?

[phoen!x]

sure,

you must extract the file into the SSMod folder. And replace the all files.
Just compare the folder structure to understand what is going on..

Looks very, very nice, downloading immediately. Thank you for your efforts (since I can't give rep ).

[Hounf of Culan]

Good to know Phoenix, just downloaded. Now to go check out all the skins in CB.

[Mike13531]

WOW, you know what, those are the best upgraded christian knights i've ever seen, but then again, all of the ones before are just too ugly for me to bare, lol, which is exaclty why i quit playing as christian factions.
here is a few feedbacks
-might wanna make gothic knights less dirty, because it looks like they've had a dirty mud bath.
-those longbowmen looked completely brown, O_O, i think that went over a little

i understand the rust and all the realism your talking about here. I love that idea, but tone down the dirtying a little, some of them was too much. Btw, i love what you've done with all of the knights tho, they are beautiful

[Hounf of Culan]

I love your skins phoenix, seeing as my my family is Scottish I love seeing the Scotttish units wearing various tartans, esp. the DFK and the higland nobles. Also, I for one love your dirt/mud/blood effects, they are great! To each his own.

[Mike13531]

lol, chola you just read my mind. Anyways, i think the dust and such need to be reduced at least 70%.

[Kalos]

Of course, my computer can't even turn on the Shaders required to see the blood and dirt during battle, so it doesn't matter for me. I wish I had a better computer.

[Boudicca]

I am afraid there nice chainmails will all be very rusty after some battles in this mud massacre.

I really like the idea, but it's a little too much dirt for my taste and it looks a bit too uniform. But I suppose you are constantly working to improve this, and it already is very impressive.

[phoen!x]

ok guys I did what I could to reduce the mud:




and here are the improved units.

I made a small update because uploading it completely would take 2 hrs.

[Mike13531]

nice one, i have a couple of suggestions judging from the screenies. hope you won't mind, remember, it's just feedbacks, nobody is forcing you to do anything
-gothic knights looks great, because that armor is too good, it's not easy for it to rust.
-as for the swordman and archer probably need further reducing, because they still look brownish, lol, the first screenie, the swordmen looks like chocolate .

but great work though, your probably the fastest skinner i've seen, no joke. DG, whitewolf and all the well-known skinner in the forum took their a long time to do their retexturing, but your fast man

[whhyy]

I've asked this alot and I'll ask it again.

Could you please make a skin pack for the Muslim factions. They deserve the same variety that the Europeans have been getting over and over again.
