Googly's 'Blut Und Eisen' Tweaking Centre

[Googly]

Ahoy me laddies! Bonjour mon amis and Gutentag meine kameraden!

For a while now I've been editing textures in various games such as Skyrim and Warband for my own personal use and tastes, then I thought 'I might as well share these with the community!'.

So that's what I've done. Intially I'm not planning on 'taking requests' as last time I offered requests, I got about 20 of them and then was hammered by the requestors to get them done quickly when I didn't have really any time to do them in. So for now I'll be attempting to retexture some of the vanilla Blood and Iron textures where I see there should be some form of change. My intial change was on the 1er Chasseurs a Pied which I noticed had the 'Horizon Blue' as I call it of the French from WWI, when I've seen re-enactors and paintings of them wearing a deep navy blue and darker green epaulettes. Also, and this is no offense to Willhelm and the modders, but the vanilla Blood and Iron sound effects were rather 'weak' sounding and the presenting animation looked awkward and uncomfortable, so I edited those aswell.

Before you ask, I'm not a modeller, so I can't make you guys custom models like Beta or the others

These animations are thanks to Nytech and Hinkel, the legendary Civil War lovers! And the 'at attention' animation is thanks to 32nd_Rct_Schinider! I just pieced them together into one great animation pack for you guys to enjoy!

Nice work , would you be able to implement that standing still animation into NW?

[Wismar]

Amazing work!
Downloading this once I come home!

Just estract the files into the resource folder in your NW modlue and you should be set

[Willhelm]

It's very nice, i do like the NaS animations but can't use them in the actual mod for obvious reasons, you do have permission to use them here right?

[Wismar]

Some new sounds for the Dreyse would be very nice.

Not formally, but seeing as baktech already released the animation in his thread: https://www.fsegames.eu/forum/index.php?topic=5510.0 - I assumed Hinkel and Nytech had already given permission for their animations to be used. As well as I've already credited them if you see.

Besides it's not like I'm profiting or gaining any money from improving player experience, but if they want me to remove them I can.

Awesome, thank you so much for that beautiful uniform 

[Googly]

Update coming soon!

I was going to put up these uniforms a few weeks back but never had the time to piece them together into a .rar file. But I will do soon, however for now have a few screenies of one of the uniforms I retextured and my personal favourite as well. The Prussian Marines!

For those marines, mostly everything is completely overhauled. I retextured the Dreyse rifle, tunic, sash, Remington revolver, officer sword, personalised shoulder-boards and a brand new Prussian shako re-texture. Also as you can see I replaced all the Prussian infantry with leather knee-boots (The ones used by the Red Cross) as they look more suited than the ankle-boots of the French.

[Jake]

Nice!

Where's the second animation from?

[Derpingtonpryce]

Would it be possible to make the ide animation a separate file, putting both in the same file makes it so that this can only be used for B&I, in NW for example the reload animation is completley non-existant, the character just freezes.
