Skin & Model Repository & Bits 'n' Bobs Archive

This thread is an archive of miscellaneous skins & models created or modified by members of the community. They may be downloaded and used freely and, with proper credit, included in other mods made publicly available.

The sad truth is that may mod projects that are begun are never completed - but the real tragedy arises when the effort put into them is lost to the community and its creations left unused on someone's harddrive.

Equally, in learning to mod, we create skins & models as part of developing our skills without necessarily intending them for any particular project.

Perhaps they are now useless or unwanted to their creator, but perhaps they will inspire other modders, perhaps help another mod onto completion.

So please do have a root around your harddrive and see if you've got anything that may be at all useful and then post it here, or if you've been a part of mod project that will unfortunately never be completed - or you are a modder who is leaving RTW - please consider releasing your work to the community. There have been several examples of recently of excellent work that simply cannot continue to be used in good conscience because the modders can no longer be contacted to ask for their permission.


How to help
1) Upload the file in zip format to the Org filespace through the Uploader (http://www.totalwar.org/Downloads/Uploaders/RTWFinal.php)

2) Take a screenshot of your skin or model and host it on www.imageshack.us (http://www.imageshack.us)

3) Post a reply in this thread, including a thumbnail of the image, a link to the file and the following information: its title, who created/modified it, (for skins) the model it uses, whether a unit card or unit_info card exists for it.

My first skinning efforts were done as a favour to another member. They asked for Macedonian and Seleucid versions of the Greek Heavy Peltasts.

As many new players, I was intrigued by the Samnite mercenaries. I intended for a while to bulk out a mercenary list for them - before I actually learned a little more about who the Samnites actually were. Most of the changes are just changing the shade and adding the Samnite symbol to shields and armour.

My first mod was called Rome Total ZOR which changed the recruitment model so that you were able to recruit any troop from any faction so long as you controlled that faction's homelands. I planned a successor mod (entitled 'CZOR' :grin:) which would have had skins so that every unit would appear in each faction's colours. I had started on the barbarians when I realised that in fact most players hated the faction colours after all.

These next two skins were modified by The_Ferret as part of the WYSISYG project which was designed to provide a graphical solution to all the inconsistencies in the unit file (eg, units having shields when they don't have a shield bonus). The Britons and Germans both got additional armour to make them consistent with the look of other units of similar stats. The Armenian Cataphract Archers similarly got additional armour on the face and arms to justify their high armour value.

These are just reskins for Romano-British archers.......remember, they arnt that great but they were the first skin i ever did for RTW/BI

Great idea. I have tons of rubbish I could upload. But I'll spare everyone from that.

Here's my Carthaginian Archer.

Carthaginian Version
https://img67.imageshack.us/img67/7866/carthtri9vx.jpg

This was my first model and skin. I was going to make more of these with archers and stuff but then i moved on to toher stuff.

This was made for Vanilla v1.2

You can dload it here: RTW_TRICERATOPS (http://www.angelfire.com/alt2/tomsjournal/RTW_triceratops.zip) (right click > save as)

This unit has everything except for sprites. Check it out. Theyre fun to play around with.


SIMPLE CANNON

This is a simple wodden cannon i made for Vanilla v1.2. Pretty fun to play around with. Cool to have huge 20vs20 cannon duels. The unit doesnt have sprites. Also its been updated to look better etc since the screens were taken.

You can dload it here: RTW_CANNON (http://www.angelfire.com/alt2/tomsjournal/cannon.zip) (right click > save as)

[dclare4]

Could the Zulu Total War team perhaps include your cannon in our mod with proper accreditation of course ~;) We'll need to re-skin it but it's just the right shape (though it probably should be smaller) for an early 19th Century Naval Cannon.

Thanks!

I have some Seleucid skins to post, but what do I use to show the pictures?

Host the picture at www.imageshack.us it will then copy and paste the code it generates for you into a reply.

[professorspatula]

What's with the 'Dead Projects Archive' bit you've tagged on? I think that's a bit negative. I think this is a great place for people to share their miscellaneous 'bits and bobs', but not necessarily just old leftover stuff, which is what the thread now suggests - more so than ever! I think it's a shame the Org doesn't have a greater emphasis on providing resources for others as it is. It would be nice to see a bit more open sharing of resources instead of having to hunt elsewhere. And it's a scary world outside the Org! :hide:

PS What about adding sticky status to the thread?

[Epistolary Richard]

The name addition just sounded cool, but you're right. As for sticky status, I just hope that people will be generous enough so that won't be necessary.

[GrimSta]

Well i have some skins i was working on for the Pax Romana mod, but i think it has died ~:mecry: so i will upload them here once i get permission from KScott, it is basically a complete reskin of the Berbers, and Reskins of the Francisca Heerban, Levy Spearmen, Steppe Swordsmen and Gallowglasses - they were going to be for the new Suebi Faction - so lots of leather armour and sod all chainmail.
The Berbers look like this.

Ep, your link is broken...

Thanks, they're all fixed now.

PS What about adding sticky status to the thread?
Yeah, it'd be good if this topic was stickied. Saves having to dig through search results by keywords and / or skim-reading through the vast quantity of Forge topics until your eyes hurt ~D

Its a utility topic more than anything IMO, don't really see it as a scrapheap for incompleted / dead / freelance / one-off requests etc modding projects. Even just a couple of new / reskinned etc units keeps the game interesting.

I'll gladly include the work done in the mod once I've released it (obviously apart from others work). I could upload the units now, but its yet more fiddling with URLs, screenshots, webspace etc.

[Seasoned Alcoholic]

OK, the mod hasn't been released yet, but here's a couple of unlocked models, textures, unit & unit info cards (created by Marly). Note that the models and textures should already be present if you've used Vercingetorix's x-pak extractor tool to unpack the .pak files, just replace them with the ones in the download:

1) Upload the file in zip format to the Org filespace through the Uploader (http://www.totalwar.org/Downloads/Uploaders/RTWFinal.php)

2) Take a screenshot of your skin or model and host it on www.imageshack.us (http://www.imageshack.us)

3) Post a reply in this thread, including a thumbnail of the image, a link to the file and the following information: its title, who created/modified it, (for skins) the model it uses, whether a unit card or unit_info card exists for it.

My first skinning efforts were done as a favour to another member. They asked for Macedonian and Seleucid versions of the Greek Heavy Peltasts.

As many new players, I was intrigued by the Samnite mercenaries. I intended for a while to bulk out a mercenary list for them - before I actually learned a little more about who the Samnites actually were. Most of the changes are just changing the shade and adding the Samnite symbol to shields and armour.

My first mod was called Rome Total ZOR which changed the recruitment model so that you were able to recruit any troop from any faction so long as you controlled that faction's homelands. I planned a successor mod (entitled 'CZOR' :grin:) which would have had skins so that every unit would appear in each faction's colours. I had started on the barbarians when I realised that in fact most players hated the faction colours after all.

These next two skins were modified by The_Ferret as part of the WYSISYG project which was designed to provide a graphical solution to all the inconsistencies in the unit file (eg, units having shields when they don't have a shield bonus). The Britons and Germans both got additional armour to make them consistent with the look of other units of similar stats. The Armenian Cataphract Archers similarly got additional armour on the face and arms to justify their high armour value.

This is quite the great idea. I mod and lack a skinner although i have acess to a friend who does amazing faction icons and might learn how to. If only more people would put up skins.

I'm seeking Hoplite skins and textures for greek factions

Try the TWCenter download area, look in the "skins" section, maybe you´ll find something there.

Besides, this is not the right thread for that.

Hi
i am making a narnia total war is anyone intrested in skinning for me :bow:

i downloaded the centaurs model but were do i put the tga.dds files

oscarreeve, for those you need to put them in folder specified in the add to descr_model_battle.txt text, unless you amend that to something else, eg:

texture greek_cities, data/models_unit/textures/centaur_horse.tga

For anyone having difficulty getting downloaded units in game have a look at the tutorial on adding new units here (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=51750).

[Red Spot]

If there is an interest for it I can upload Roman skins (though often slightly altered) in darker version than original including black and broken-white skins, for pretty much most of the Roman units, nothing special it may just save (a lot of) time for someone interested in a similair modification ...

note I wont just upload this for a single user (I may send it to you though) as this is 40mb of skins, 396 textures in total and still growing with an other 99 skins(grey versions))
