light infantry, and artillery uniforms need a touch of enhanced art from you please,
I also want to thank you.
Finally proper uniforms....
Maybe I can return you the favor. I recently (re)discovered an old booklet full of german trading cards from 1932 in my bookshelf. These trading/collector cards have been sold by a german cigarette company with each package of cigarettes. The smoke for the mature and the card for the kids. They show many units of prussia and all the german states from Hamburg to Bavaria in the era of the seven years war in color. I already searched through for their usefulness for Empire:Total War and made this list so far:

they will follow in the next update atm I´m doing some touch up`s on colours and better normal maps so be patient ^^
@Alwyn thx always at your service ^^
@ Kreuzberger
thx for your offer with sources about the prussian army, but the prussians would really be my last problem in matter of detailed informations ^^ have many books about 18th century and prussia really isnt a faction who is
lacking on material about them at all but anyways thx for your thoughts

Excellent pack of units! You've done a great job (+rep)

Have a closer look to my list.... there are also units of the german minor states. Under the list of the prussian units. ^^
And so far I have seen no mod, that had special units of the german minor states. I think this is a chance to fill that gap...
Ok, I see. Well, then I will put the uniforms back into the bookshelf.
PS: I found another modder using already the "Sturm Zigaretten" tradecard uniform pictures. So at least you can have a look at them:

Bavarian Grenadier, I thought you might want to know that I am using your Vanilla Units Enhanced mod with my Haiti AAR (After Action Report - a story about a campaign). When European soldiers appear in the game (they haven't yet, as the AAR is very new, but they will) people will be able to see your impressive textures in action. There is a link to the AAR in my signature, if anyone is interested (+rep).
glad to hear you like them @Alwyn atm i´m reworking the whole pack new gloss files for consistent colourisation,historical additions which can`t be ignored even for generic unit layout .Before i get my hands on the dlc units and port them further in timefrime, i will post a revised version soon .
the ugly faces are gone
Good work! I look forward to using the revised version
I must admit that you make an excellent work
I have downloaded this mod (great work, by the way, I just love it) from the front page, and my grenadiers -- the British ones, at any rate -- still wear bearskin mitres instead of those pictures. Is there an option to switch them, or have I done something wrong?
I made a profile just to thank you for making this! The vanilla skins are so ugly and lifeless; the faces are muddy and the uniforms are boring. I was okay with the vanilla game itself, so I did not want any sort of mod like Darthmod to alter how the game played, but this mod is EXACTLY what I was looking for.
The British uniforms are PERFECT, though some do note it looks odd for the British to look the way they do in the revolutionary war (7 years war uniforms), I say the vanilla uniforms looked even more odd (you can't go for perfect historical accuracy to cover a period of 100 years). Whatever you do don't change the model itself because it looks very good, I'll even save the current version of the mod incase it gets overwritten.
The only thing I do like more in the vanilla uniforms is the bright color blue used by the United Provinces, your mod gives them a darker blue I didn't really care for. I hope any other change you make is for the best!
@ Spongy there is a small data file in the pack which adds a units exlusive faction entry for british grenadiers in custum battles they are both available
@ Rawfire thx mate, as for the UP colours,it was an result of the custom normalmaps that they were darker , next release will change that back too vanilla style ^^
