BloodBath VI
Upgrade to Version VI - July 23rd, 2014
This mod now includes all the SOW cavalry units and Infantry Death sprites on 8K sized texture sheets providing for improved performance capabilities.
The Union units have been re-textured with a new look brown replacing the stock orange horses, enlisted from the mod Cavalry 8K Packed, which is obviously not necessary while BloodBath VI is enabled
All units are Death sprite enhanced, reflecting the bloody realism of warfare.
Enable this mod for Sandbox play or User Scenarios to provide it's enhancements.
Unzip and copy to the Mods folder:
BloodBath VI

BloodBath III plus Rebel Big Browns
This should conclude the BloodBath series with the inclusion of cavalry, time and feedback will tell. Pretty satisfied with the results, could go back and improve some of my early efforts, but I think the improvements would be negligible, and only noticed by me. So, this is my final best effort to date, and I think it represents it's name well.
The Rebel 'Big Browns' were an afterthought, but as I did a few, I was hooked into finishing. Yanks should be done also, but I'm leaving this for now...maybe down the line, hopefully learn some shortcuts. Because now, this browning process is frame by frame, almost died a redundantly mundane death seeing it through.
BTW, Big Brown was a tremendously successful racehorse a few years back, so I coined this with his famous name and winning spirit.
Really big file now with all the Reb Cavalry included, still, no degradation in performance, just altered sprites. As mentioned before, both High and Low resolution sprites are included. So, endure the long download, 30 Mb, but play and enjoy forever...

Re: BloodBathIII plus Rebel Big Browns
RebBugler - excellent work on these new horse sprites.
I can't really say that I'm interested in the blood mod , but I will steal the new horse sprites and integrate into my mod!
Thanks,
davinci

Re: BloodBathIII plus Rebel Big Browns
I downloaded the mod and it tried to open in windows media player,closed it went back to find the mod and it got lost somewhere.The things that keep me up at night are usually the things that teach me the most. It's not supposed to open in media player is it? :huh:
