Title: Victoria's Colonial Wars: Anglo-Sudan War/Zulu (Need Modelers)
Post by: FKP_Blucher on December 09, 2013, 10:06:56 am
--Victorias Colonial Wars--

Good news, everyone!
The AZW Mod team has returned from hiatus and has begun production on a new modification in the same historical   vein as the original. Scrapping both AZW and the now defunct AZW:Resurrection, this new mod seeks to display and showcase British historical conflicts throughout the late 19th century, including the early phases of the Anglo-Sudan War, the Anglo-Zulu War, as well as, later on in the mod's development, conflicts in Afghanistan and other regions.

This new mod will reduce the focus on PvP from the AZW section and convert it into a more horde-type survival experience, due to popular demand. New British units (Including foreign auxiliaries and an expanded Boer presence) will be introduced for the sake of content and historical accuracy. Zulus will be rebalanced (No more pesky sniper-spears!) and, like the entirety of the new Anglo Zulu War portion of the mod, redone in both models and textures.

 At the same time, the Anglo-Sudan war will be focused mainly around PvP, with Sudanese players standing more of a chance against the British faction in a 1 on 1 duel. AZW will still be playable in PvP, but will not be a primary focus of the new modification. New weapons and uniforms, as well as units and regiments will be added, distinguishing this more modern British army from its older counterpart in the Zulu war.

Like AZW Before it, VCW will be multiplayer only, and require Mount and Blade Warband, as well as the Napoleonic Wars DLC.

Summary of new features (TLDR):
Spoiler
-Completely re-done mod from scratch, featuring the British (Older/Newer), Zulu, and Sudanese factions (With more to come later on)
-New Graphics, models, weapons, and uniforms for the British, Zulus, and Sudanese.
-2British Factions:1 for Sudan conflict. 1 for zulu!
-New maps and scenarios
-Zulu will be focused on PvE, Sudan/Afghan will be focused on PvP
-reattach/detach Bayonets
-Ammo Boxes
-sprinting for zulus
-camels
-camels scaring horses
-Hopfully things you guys request

We would like to stress that VCW is /not/ an update or a continuation of the first AZW mod. It is a fully new version of the original AZW built from the bottom up.

I'd recommend using the BRFs to take pictures of weapons, because of the fact they'll look the same as in game.

I wish your team the best of luck!

Might I advise a compression of unit variety in the Zulu side of the mod?

I would advise focusing the British side on the Centre column,including those at Islandlwana, so you have the 1st and 2nd battalion 24th,1/NNC, Natal Carbineers and a wider variety of irregulars including key characters like Durnford,Pulliene and maybe Melville with the colours. Although I remain an avid fan of the Frontier Light Horse for their excellent service I believe this would be best for the mod. If you are interested in the suggestion then let me know and I will compile a list of units.

Oh and,you have to remove Zulu warrior woman and all of those silly female AI units.,it is just a silly addition to the current AZW mod,please don't let it follow into this one.

Errr? What?

“Women have always fought,” he said. “Shaka Zulu had an all-female force of fighters. Women have been part of every resistance movement. Women dressed as men and went to war, went to sea, and participated actively in combat for as long as there have been people.”
http://aidanmoher.com/blog/featured-article/2013/05/we-have-always-fought-challenging-the-women-cattle-and-slaves-narrative-by-kameron-hurley/

I think it adds nice variety.

Shaka Zulu had an all female force of fighters? Find me one shred of evidence that the Zulu used women in their amabutho? It doesn't add variety it looks bloody ridiculous especially when they are wearing black and white leopard print bikini's.

Oh and that silly article is not evidence, that is some silly shit coming out of some bloggers keyboard.

Women did not fight in the Zulu war in any regimented manner or in any key battles beyond maybe hitting men who walked through their villages with sticks. If you want this to be taken seriously then actually be vaguely realistic.

Female warriors will not longer be in the new zulu portion. Also that list would be nice. We will be keeping some of the old regiments from the original mod such as 24th,58th, and 60th. Others will be either redone or re-used possibly. Or they will be replaced by a new regiment etc...

Post by: James Grant on December 11, 2013, 11:32:51 am
I'll do it after work then, and another thing,I remember that animations were the reason we didn't pursue muskets etc for the Zulu in AZW but it really would be a keep factor in terms of historical accuracy,at Isandlwana and Rorkes Drift for example the Zulu had extremely few if any Martini Henrys,and even after Isandlwana they wouldn't have had more than 500-700 rifles  between them,there weren't more than 1000 in camp and a lot were broken due to jamming or in hand to hand combat. So your looking at less than 1000 rifles between 20000 Zulu warriors. This number would have been reduced dramatically after the battle of Khambula too.

If you need me to cite references in regard to why I think so few rifles fell into the hands of the Zulu feel free,oh and there were no martini Henry's at Rorkes drift because A)The reserve which fought the battle had had no opportunity to plunder and B) though it was suspected no injured men were found with the obvious sign of being shot by a Martini Henry.

Forgive spelling errors,this was written on a tablet with autocorrect.

Considering the zulus will be more about player vs bots and not PvP then they don't have to be as balanced to the british, so they can have less guns and less units.

Best place to start, is instead of forcing players to have a certain skin colour, use the code from the sailor's outfit, and define the skin colour.
having two variants for white/dark skin colour for both genders, and a simple detection system for which skin colour was used for the face...
should work.

I think it would be great to do it in a similar way to the Deluge mod - replace the gender option with race options such as European/African, or Aryan/Hamitic as it would be called in late 19th century. As you choose one of them you get a different selection of skins and hairstyles. Also the customization of the face shape of the two races could be made slightly different.

Maybe some afro/curly hair texture?

We are going to have diffrent face variants. One step at a time. Only have one guy who really does all the modeling. But as i said in the post that unit is not all we have done. We have diff mahdist with Afros etc. The units will not be all be the same hoping to get diff variants.

If his trousers are reinforced with leather, the leather also have to be in the place between his legs, not just at the foots. The uniform still looks much better than in previous zulu mod, nice work.

I think that might be some sort of white powder certain tribes spread over their bodies, I don't think the Zulus use it so I'm not sure.

I was wondering if you still need a mapper? I'm not very good with AI mesh (Which may be A rather large part) but I'd be glad to made basic maps for you. If you need my help I'll probably look into AI mesh.
