    Default EB Graphics (Banners, etc)

    Hey guys,

    I was wondering if there was a resource for EB graphics. I wanted to make a new Epeiros signature banner and need a decent sized banner like this:



    Are these available in a larger size anywhere?

    Teleklos Archelaou might release some other images soon, but this should work for now hopefully.

    Yes Krusader, I've seen that one before. It's lovely and would do wonderfully for a sig.

    I do, however, want some of the graphics to play around with on my own. I took some fun screen shots and thought they would work well on a sig.

    I can't imagine why they would be held close to the vest since all it would do is promote this great mod. But whatever is decided is fine with me as I was just looking to have some fun playing around with photochop.

    Example (a little magic wand and 30 seconds of effort)



    A larger version of that banner would do nicely behind the dodone pooch is all.

    You know, I thought of that. Are they decent sizes? I guess I can find that part out for myself. Thanks for the tip, Arkatreides.

It came down to the hound vs. the charging bull, but the hound found on many coins is more immediately recognizable as Epeirote (the charging bull was later added as the rebel sub faction emblem).

    Nevermind! TA just gave me an idea for a different approach!!

    Also, in your eb/data/models_units/textures/ file you will find those banners you are asking for. In .tga.dds format though, so you'll need the plugin for photoshop.

    Probably because we haven't though about it. And I think you are the first one to raise the question.

    hehe...

    It was this line, "Teleklos Archelaou might release some other images soon..." that made it sound as if the team were holding something back. Don't mind me and my conspiratory inuendo.

    Thanks for chiming in TA. I'll check that folder out aswell.


    Oh, and Krusader...

    Heya Sverige!!!

    Does the EB team mind if I post some of the bits I'm Photochopping out of the unit texture files? Some of these are awesome!

    I don't guess the team will mind. If there's something we do object to, then we'll let you know in a friendly manner. No one has asked about this before, so we don't have policy on it currently.

    Why do I suspect this friendly manner includes something that isn't friendly, like a dance with a Gestatae.
