Rag-Tag-CSA-Army

Post by Davinci »

Units from SOW \ TC2M \ Pom - These boys will confuse the hell out of any army they face.

I de-saturated the colors' a bit to blend in a little bit better with the other units.
The unit in the blue-shirt is less-blue.
The unit in the top-hat is not as bright, more worn-out colors'.
The unit in orange is more faded looking.

Excellent stuff Davinci. Yes, I noticed the Texas volunteer cavalry, Crikey. I agree they will make good Confederates.

Very nice. More beautiful work from Pom.
HITS & Couriers - a different and realistic way to play SoW MP.

I never played with the Cavalry in Open-Play games; I didn’t really play with any Artillery until I increase the artillery-sounds so that you can hear them from eight miles away.
That really adds to the sound of the battles.

I might use them as couriers for the CSA-Army.

You and Pom did an excellent job with these units.

General Lee and his entourage…

Notice how the drills file will allow the units to turn as if they are talking over the situation.

Hey, Crikey how is everything going.

I don't think that you can go below the highest command, or it might affect how the other units are placed in a formation.

This is what I came up with last night, but it seems that it should be an easier way of doing this.

OOB
General Robert E Lee,General Robert E Lee,General Robert E Lee,Army of Northern Virginia,2,1,0,0,0,0,UGLB_CSA_Inf_Cdr_Army,,(0-0),,0,GFX_CS_HQ1,,DRIL_Lvl6_Cav_Column,45,6,6,6,6,6,9,6,,,,,,,,,
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Unchanged – As it appears that the formation sets up on the Corps Commander.

Lt Gen James Longstreet,Lt Gen James Longstreet,Lt Gen James Longstreet,First Corps,2,1,1,0,0,0,UGLB_CSA_Inf_Cdr_Corps,,(0-0),,0,GFX_CS_HQ1,,DRIL_Lvl4_Inf_Reserves,1,6,6,6,6,6,9,6,,,,,,,,,
……………………………………………………………………………………………

Drills – Added to the bottom of the modded drills file.

Level 1 Cav Column (59),DRIL_Lvl6_Cav_Column,4,3,12.4,6.6,,1,1,0,-10,1,,100,,,,1

Using Pom Sprites to make multiple uniforms.

Faded the blue-uniform to make it dirty-faded-blue.

Faded the brown-uniform to make it faded-greyish-brown.

I haven't played SOW for quite some time. Before I reinstall, I have been looking at some mods that I want to include. Rag-Tag CSA is high on the list. However, I can't seem to find where or how to download. I would like to get the POM original as well as Davinci's excellent take. Thanks for the help
