List of unimplemented CA skins. Contribute here!

[SpifDK]

It appears that CA has left quite a few unused skins in the game files. So far these include Indian War Elephants, the Woad Warriors used in the TV programs (Time Commanders?) and Carthaginian Archers.

Please feel free to add to the list.

They look pretty cool, esp the woad warriors. Wasn't there a model for something like this left in MTW, along with a lot of junk code not used, as far as I know from WesW

[The samnite]

Aren't the archers the ones that are used on Carthage's elephants?

[Szun]

in vanila game carth. archers are numid troops, in TR2.0/2.2 carthago has them in.

i think in models/textures there are a bunch of unused skins - they look very hand painted - they have stuff like eagle bearers, carthage heavy infantry and officers- not sure how strange they'd look next to the normal in-game units...

[lancelot]

Woad warriors in the normal game look just like all the other brit warriors, I wonder why they didnt use the TC commanders ones?

[SpifDK]

jimmyM, can you post a screenshot of them?

[Plantagenet]

I found Macedonian colored skins for a few of the Greek Cities units (Hoplites, Armored Hoplites, etc.). All I had to do was re-color the unit cards, and now I'm building Hoplites as Macedonia.

If you go into the Rome main folder, then Data/models/textures and use something like ifranview( www.download.com -possibly needing plugins from the site)to take a sneaky peek..pretty sure they're not in...

sorry...too comp-illiterate to post a pic...er tips?

[Silver Rusher]

I think that the skins left out are used in the Realism mod.

I found lots of 'eastern' skins and replaced the Parthains garish purple for them, they are mainly white but look excellent.I use 'slave' sprites as they are the same colour.

[Serghan]

Sorry, could you write me names of these files (textures) i don't want to unpack all files but to create new units.

[Myrddraal]

I think I saw a skin called Eastern_Musician or something like it. Is that an unused skin?

[Enrique Orduno]

There is a brown horse model/skin..it's pretty much a wild horse.

[mattholomew]

I just found Gallic Night Raiders, all Gladiators for each roman faction, Slingers for the julii and britons, lots of rebel roman units, thracian and seleucid skins that might work for hoplites, dark blue bastarnae, iberian archers, merc barbarian archers, alternate barbarian mercs, barbarian infantry for barb. factions which are recolored barb. mercs, 2 skins of carthaginian archers, seleucid and macedonian peltasts, seleucid eastern infantry, some nice thracian peltasts, alt. greek archers, briton cavalry and chosen archers, roman light infantry.

one could probably find a lot more if they used some form of organization.

[Red Harvest]

One of the better skins is the alternate Carthaginian/Spanish medium infantry skin. It uses the long shield cav shield. I have substituted that for the Libyan infantry skin.

I used exising hidden skins for Britons cavalry and skirmisher warbands.

There was a thread about this called the lost/hidden units project over at TWC.
