New units (work in progress)

[PrinzHenrich]

I don't care about flagbeares, they are not neccessery. We need troops, if i have to choose (which obviously we have to) i prefer to have more troops than less but with flags and stuff like that.

great units! sorry, are these for the existing volume 1 scenarios or for Volume 2?

[PrinzHenrich]

They are made for volume I, but can be use in volume II. I lost hope that volume II will be released. So feel free to use it in volume I. They are free. Too install it :
:
Unzip and paste into folder SupportedFiles/Armies/"army name"
Then deleted file: UnitDefinitons.bin in folder: SupportedFiles/Armies
Try to run Editor, will crashed few time, but after waiting few minutes will run. Now you are able to use this new units
Ofc, they will not turnin each scenario untill you chnged them manualy in editor and save redo scrnarios.

[Schweinewitz]

Thanks! [:)]

Started working on the French/Swiss Planta infantry. Insane time-consuming work. Well, here's a small teaser:

Prinz, are you planing to upload your new units here?

[PrinzHenrich]

The IR36 is already uploaded, the horse artillery is still under construction. I can download only redos of HorseGrenadiers and Prinz Maximilian

[PrinzHenrich]

Tip, start with line, kneeling is different only in loading, line and shooting. Square are very simple. Rest can be easily copy&paste.

[Schweinewitz]

Thanks! - Problem with the Swiss infantry is the need of repainting the coat to get rid of the turnbacks and fix other details. Recolouring for example the Austrian Königsegg infantry would solve the turnbacks problem because it comes without those but the following copy&paste job and repainting would be labour-intensive to the same degree.

[PrinzHenrich]

Sometime you can use a mask of other units. You copy and paste whole, and not let the mask stay, choose a mouse and deleted all you don't need from the mask, showing up the original plate cover behind.

[Schweinewitz]

Sorry, I don't understand. Never used masks and layers etc. before. Must check the Gimp description.

Edit: Found a tutorial about the subject in German. I'll try my best.

[PrinzHenrich]

Everyday i made i finishing one part of last plate for Horse Artillery. Got 60%.

[PrinzHenrich]

Done, i thought it will be easy

Looks pretty much as light artillery, since Prussians use 6pndrs as horse artilllery, all crew member now have horses.

[Schweinewitz]

The horse artillery looks fantasic, Prince! Great work! [&o]

[PrinzHenrich]

No, they don't, all i had to do is change 2 plates, column and destroyed1, though the destroyed1 was pretty hard. I prefer your and Magnus work.

[Schweinewitz]

I think you're way too humble. All units you're doing are of excellent quality. I know, the artist is often overcritical of himself ... [;)]
