    Default CA please fix the visiors of the Old Guard

    CA can you please fix the visiors of the Old Guard. I have been reading lot of Napoleonc books and I am amazed by the level of details done right on uniforms in NTW. So many things have been done right that I can say only praise to CA. Digby Smith is also proud I guess. But the visiors of the Old Guard are such a punch in the eye. I have no idea how that mistake was done. On all screenshots before the release the Old Guard has nice historical hats (wrong epolelets though). Take a look here;

    http://pc.ign.com/dor/objects/27042/...020557997.html

    So, CA can you please fix the visors on the Old Guard and the units using the same hat model (Grenadiers in Italy campaign, Dutch Grenadiers, Velite Grenadiers of Kingdom of Italy)? Please?

    I decided to add few more simple bugs here:
    1. Fix the officer of Armed Citizinery of Spain who is the ETW Line infantry soldier
    2. In MPCs and Camapigns of the Colalition Oldenburg has a fusilier unit and a lancer unit that are again ETW Infantry soldiers. In the French Camapign its fixed.
    3. Make French National Guard recruitable in Paris.
    4. Please bring back the blue backround like it was before the Peninsulla DLC.

    Thanks CA!

    A simple re-skin made by a modder would do other wise but you probably know that. Dunno why they don´t fix that small error.

    uggest you use L'aigle's The Imperial Mod at http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=386273 as these are the best looking Guard Units so far.

    This has already been explained: the guy doing the historical research made a mistake and sent the old guard artillery bearskin for the old guard to the modelling artists instead of the right one.

    I don't think this will ever be fixed by CA, as a lot of players don't care about such a "detail" (which is kind of a shame, a bit as if, I don't know, British soldiers wore a beret in the game).

    It doesn't mean if it was done wrong that can not be fixed.

    I didn't say that it cannot be fixed, but that CA won't fix it, as this is a very minor detail for the majority of the players. Hence, they won't fix it as they already hardly fix stuff which are gamebreaking or that a lot of players complain about.

    To me, it was just impossible to play with the old guard with such a hideous mistake (and thanks again to the modders who have corrected it, like Sir Digby, Cornwallis or L'aigle ) but this is not the case of the vast majority of the players, who just don't notice it and will think from now on that's what the old guard bearskin looked like.

    as Prince Essling said, use L'aigle's The Imperial Mod if you want correct old guard bearskins.

    Yeah. Its all nice. But its a shame that the vanilla game has a such mistake. I want to play MPC with the right guard bearskins not only SP.

    While nice figures the bearskin cords are totally the wrong colour! See attached Rousselot plates.

    CA can't be bothered with such trivialities. They have other pressing business to contend with, I guess.

    This complaint thread is just plain retarded.

    CA, PLEASE FIX THE RESOLUTION, IT DOESN'T LOOK REAL ENOUGH, I WANT 100.000x100.000!

    So can anybody mod just the visior so the rest of the game is untouched and it stays mp compatible? So basecaly one played would see Old Guard as it is and the fixed guy would see them without the visiors.
