SS 6.2: Unrealisticly large amounts of blood when hit by arrows

**Groenepuntmuts** · February 02, 2010, 11:58 AM

Hi there, I've been enjoying Stainless steel for quite some time now, so let me first thank the SS team: kudo's for the best mod I've had the pleasure of playing.

I recently installed the 6.2 patch, and although I consider it a great improvement, and really like the difficulty, I'm a little annoyed by the blood that bursts out of (infantry) units when my archers hit them. the blood was added in 6.2, as I never noticed it before. Altough I did use permanent steel forts, permanent arrows, and the mod that added officers with flags in 6.1, I have nothing installed over 6.2.
So: if I am right, and SS 6.2 added new blood effects, is there any way to remove them? it looks quite unrealistic, the "old" 6.1 blood effects were fine by me.

Again: I really appreciate all the work you the team and the sub-modders have put in SS, to make M2TW more enjoyable for everyone, it's just this one little thing that bothers me.

Thanks in advance for your answers.

I think that's exactly what he's trying to avoid. -_-

Are YOU dense? ferretboy just said that crimson tide fixed the arrow blood problem, which is what TC wants to fix. Stop being a dick and give it a chance.

Ok everyone just take a deep breath and a chill pill. I believe there is some confusion as to what the OP was talking about. I believe he was talking about the cloud of blood that you see when a soldier is hit with an arrow, not the blood spatters that covers them after they get hit.

To the OP: AFAIK 6.2 doesn't change this but I remember someone a few months back having the same problem.

**Mr. Tornado** · February 04, 2010, 06:22 PM

K, then. At the same time, I don't understand why you would have a problem with unrealistic amoutns of blood, tho.

Ok, thanks everyone for helping me out, sorry for the vague OP.
My problem is the clouds of blood that appear when units get hit by arrows. does crimson tide replace them with something more realistic, or not?
also, if other people had the problem, as Caesar Clivus said, how do I fix it?

Again thanks in advance.
