    Default Pdguru's Mini Coalition Line Troops Mod

    PDGURU's MINI COALITION LINE TROOPS MOD Release 2.2
    CLOSED
    http://depositfiles.com/files/lgw3gf9zh



    A little mod to replace 14 of the core line units for the main coalition factions of Britain, Prussia, Austria and Russia. NOTE: This mod changes the vanilla in-battle units only (or those in any mod which uses the original vanilla unit ID's). It does not change their unit cards or info cards.

    Britain

    Kings German Legion Foot (NEW)



    Light Infantry (NEW!)



    Regiment of Foot



    Highlanders (revised hat mesh care of Steph)



    Fencibles/Early Line



    Revised backpacks



    Prussia

    Musketeers



    Fusiliers



    Grenadiers



    Revised backpacks



    Austria

    German Fusiliers



    Hungarian Fusiliers



    Hungarian Grenadiers



    German Grenadiers



    Grenadier Bearskin Plate Detail



    Revised backpacks



    Russia

    Grenadiers



    Musketeers




    Feedback and reactions requested, as usual. THAT SAID: Please don't offer suggestions for uniform corrections or details - these are just the way I like to have them in game and I know there are oddities and "artistic licence".

    I am done with modding for the foreseable future, and hope you all have enjoyed my work here!

    Sorry, but I have to give some historical comments. Hungarian with white pants????

    And for the Russian shako, the plate really doesn't fit.

    Lots of potential, but some details spoil it my friend.

    I really like them especially the mud
    However the thread title does suggest that it is napoleons minor allies
    Not a small coalition mod

    HI i look forward to seeing your new mod when it is compete. I like your idea of "artistic licence" it adds more interest and variety.
    All the very best for the New year and thanks as always for taking the time to produce these fine mods, which are very much appreciated.

    Steph,

    Perhaps your New Year's resolution might be to curb your tendency to criticism, especially when requested to do so, PS: I assume it's a language issue but FYI multiple question marks denote scorn, and the use of "my friend" is condescending in this context. Both should be avoided.
    In the meantime, the Russian badge is from their guard engineers; Its on the hats because I like it, and as for blue pants on the Hungarians, until I find a blue I like, they are gonna be white because I don't like the look and frankly, plain white or even browns was likely common in the field especially given the Austrian army in particular was very poorly supplied.

    I respect you and your work, and again thank you for the meshes you have shared, but I don't need your judgement or approval of this offering's 'potential', Steph. Enough said.

    Agunter,

    Ok, good point. I have changed the thread name.

    Stephankollers,

    Thank you.

    Drama,

    I will be making a pack available today to those who drop me a PM requesting it.

    Just for the record, ??? denoted surprise or confusion and not scorn since I've never seen Hungarian infantry with anything but blue pants for this time period.

    And the "my friend" was genuinly to try to make the remarks more friendly.

    Good for you, more things in life should be about pleasing yourself rather than others. I really like the mud on the Austrian pants, looks authentic. I'll give it a whirl, though i might have a hard time seeing the difference between the two types of grenadiers. I actually thought the badge on the Russian shako's looked quite neat as well.

    I don't remember seeing Austrians and Russians in the preview on the French thread what a nice surprise... I especially like the shakos of the Hungarian fusiliers, well done

    Very nice surprise with the additional units included Mr. Guru. I for one appreciate that touch of artistic licensing that you lend to your creations. I understand that most armies had standardized uniforms. However; Being that the only things people have to go by are documents and drawings of the period. It stands to reason that the possibility for variations would exist.
    I`m pretty old... but I don`t recall the last time an Old Guard Grenadier crossed paths with me. I certainly don`t remember what color blue his overcoat was

    With that I am PM`ing you Pdguru and thanks again for touch of Pdgurization.

    All,

    I have received a number of requests so I will send you a link shortly. This really needs some testing so the first users can help me with that. Hopefully it'll work OK.

    I also found that a darker blue works nicely on the Hungarians, and your point about recognition is a good one, Lotsof, so there will be the blue Hungarian pants in the pack, and I have updated the pictures in the OP to show them.

    It simply replaces the vanilla units. If any mod leaves the original unit names in place, you'll get these units (as long as you put it at the top of your user.script). Unit and info cards remain vanilla.

    Thanks, Steph. The mud does add some realism I think and because of the limited skin area involved, does not create a clone effect in the same way as such effects on the upper legs and torso.

    Re Hungarians, my video settings make things look darker than the base colors, so they are a little lighter than shown in the pictures above. That said, I think I may lighten them a bit if I make another release of this.

    ***** Happy New Year! *****
