    Default Bayeoux style kite shields patterns

    I have created a number of shield patterns based primarily upon Bayeux Tapistery for 1066 mod about a year ago. In meantime Athos has decided not to use these textures and they were idle on my disk ever since.

    I have decided to release them as free resource for anyone to use. If you want to use them, just write it here and I will provide a download link.

    There is a small preview here, but I made more, and also many ofthese patterns are also available as oval shields as well, the kind of oval shields seen in Bayeux Tapistery.

    I hope someone will find this useful.









    UPDATE : here is Download link for the files,
    these include a set of finalised textures made for Attila TW, one older version as well as one older version of psd file with layers where I was experimenting with different overlayers and damage textures.

    You may use these files in any way you see fit, only condition is to credit me and post here in which mod do you wish to use them

    On behalf of the M2TW modding community, let me express our gratitude.
    You may also upload them in the Skins & Models for M2TW downloads section.
    If you have more to contribute we are all very much looking forward to seeing it.
    +rep!

    For unknown reason the picture is not visible.
    TGC in order to continue its development seak one or more desicated scripters to put our campaign scripts mess to an order plus to create new events and create the finall missing factions recruitment system. In return TGC will give permision to those that will help to use its material stepe by step. The result will be a fully released TGC plus many mods that will benefit TGC's material.
    Despite the mod is dead does not mean that anyone can use its material
    read this to avoid misunderstandings.

    IWTE tool master and world txt one like this, needed inorder to release TGC 1.0 official to help TWC to survive.

    They are wonderfull!!!!
    Do you have them as PSD format in layers in order to use some of them in our Norman roster? Few units of that Norman roster (1000 AD) have some low quality skins and the need replace ONLY when all other rosters will be finished.
    But many of them can have a place in TGC certainly!!! Layers will allow adjust them in TGC's shield common "leather" basis inorder all shields have the same style in game.

    Grossartig!
    Ist das siebte Motiv in der dritten Zeile zufälligerweise ein Pterosaurier ?

    Great.
    Does the seventh motif in the third line happen to be a pterosaur ?

    Great initiative - both pictures however have your watermark. Are you going to upload them (in the clear) here as Paleo suggests?

    It is not my intention to do so. I will provide download link to anyome who shows interest and they can use the files any way they see fit but I would like to be able to keep a track where the files ended up.

    Unusual, but certainly your choice. I do hope you will provide a permanent link in case you decide not to attend to this thread any further (RL happens, don't understand me wrong).

    Much obliged - if you upload here at TWC you will have a counter which should give you a good idea of interest and possible distribution plus the chance of the link becoming invalid is virtually nil.
    You can also update the download content without having to change the link here (my guides often get updated making that very convenient).

    I am interested in receiving a download link. I don't intend to publish them, just for personal use.

    Seeing that you made the link public (why not replace the invalid one in the OP?) would you mind if I create a mirror here at TWC and link it as well?
