Larger Regimental Flags - Mod (NTW compatible)

[Primergy]

Is it possible to make several regimental flags, with different size for the different factions?

Not technically. What you can do is to use an alpha mask to "cut" down the size, but this only works for ETW, since in NTW CA changed something on the shaders, which now gives you a black area, where the alpha should be, as soon as you enable "volumetric effects".

Hello there,
First of all I'd like to thank you for your work. It's wonderful, another small gem which make Total War games a bit realistic at last.
However, I have a problem, I don't understand. I tried to use your mod in many different ways - as the only mod, as different type of pack or just include to my other mod as one. Every time I have crash to desktop randomly during battles...
To find out what is causing it I removed all mods and checked every one separately. And.., to my sadness, it appears to be flag mod...
Do you have any idea what can cause the problem? Graphic card settings? Shaders? Volumetric effects? If you have any idea, please, tell me.

It's fantastic to have realistic flag at last. I think it's possible to make more different flags and regimental colours. I will have to work on it, but...

Many people said already that making two colour-bearers is impossible... I'm using my own mod I'm correcting from time to time and gathering different tricks. I'm pretty sure it is possible. After all, officer, drummer, fifer and standard-bearer are just models. So, it should be possible to exchange fifer model for flag-bearer [if flag is another, hardcoded model, it should be possible to make at last static model of standard - let's say - rolled one].

I'd like to have realistic amount of figurines; at last two drummers, NCOs, and so on, but Total War is.. well.. not very good game for history passionates. I already managed to make units looking more like regular battalion [small trick, but works!], shooting properly from real two ranks.. or three.. or one.. I'm very proud of it. I hope to collect or make correct models of the most annoying things, like cartridge boxes and letherworks [I hope CA one day will read something about history if they want to make historical games. Even fiction should be based on minimum of knowledge].

Sorry for such a long post..

Thank You again and Best Regards,
Bartosz

Yes

[AnimaMea]

Now that it's possible to fiddle with models, would it be possible to create a flag with a shorter pole for cavalry?

[Skippan]

Were flags of this size taken into RealWorld® battles? XxGREAT-BRITAINx says it makes the game more realistic...

[Primergy]

Historical, flags were definitly bigger then those ca made and in most cases also squarish, but this also depends on the type of flag.

[Asgaroth]

Thank you for this great mod.

+ rep

LOL when i tried to play the game without your mod i realized how small the "vanilla" flags really were.
This really is a great mod but i would like to see the flags just a little bit smaller

Just so that the flag goes over the soldiers heads.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

I'm sorry. I don't like to whine. Just my opinion.

I'm sorry. I don't like to whine. Just my opinion.

And thats ok, but i have to say that i won't change it anymore.. it was anoying trial and error and handwork - no need to do it twice

[Sandels]

I see... No matter. it's still a good mod and i will continue to use it.

btw are those austrian troops from a mod in one of your screenshots? What mod is it?

I think it's the texture of Remo's Retexture Project.

[Good ole Reb]

Another nice mod that had slipped under my radar, nice work and thank you, sir!

[NapoleonThe1st]

I downloaded the mod and it worked fine, the flags were larger but i didnt get any of the flag retexture ;e.g the american flag on the 1st pic
what did i do wrong?
can you help me?

[Primergy]

You have to download JFC's Flag Mod for retextures And the american flag isn't avaible, it's a picture from North and South, which i'm also developing.

[NapoleonThe1st]

Gee, thanks. I tried it in Napoleon and it worked! I love the huge flags compared to the tiny vanilla flag.
