Grand Unit Request Thread (GURT)

[merlin2199]

Well, I came across the program that allows one to view the graphic files from cossacks. It would save alot of time as I can set the pallete, number of frames, and size to match EU2 in one step... but the thing crashes every single time I try to open one file. I don't own civ3 atm, I would get it if you know of any on-line buy-and-download place for it Toxic. Right now I use photoshop, bring in the sprite from the civ format, copy, crop, place each individual frame just so... very time consuming :wacko:

Still, it is a nice project. I've had this game since the first release in germany, and just now have found the tools to make the units look like I always thought they should have

I'm quite busy and i still got to train a litlle.. but i could try and help with a couple of units per week....

But first, i must figure how to have the palette work in photoshop (knowing that i have a french version ).


EDIT : and i'll add that all i'll be able to do, at least at first, is conversion from CIV3 units...

I've just been on Kaigon's website, and am going to try and add some new sprites. Has anyone got any white units (normal EU2 style, just recoloured - I don't think I'm going to bother with CIV stuff just yet) for France, as well as any better coloured sprites for Denmark, Burgundy, etc.?

Any ideas?

Where's the best place to get sprites for EU2, bar Kaigon's site?

 

[cool-toxic]

I've made a French(Bourbon, white/gold) and a Danish(Red) unit.

And for Burgundy you can have :

Cool-Toxic, I need these ASAP!
I've gotten permission, so all you have to do is to turn em' into sprites.

Have you downloaded these fellows.
The African ones look like

once you get to level 2 sprites.

Is there possible to get a tutorial on how to change the units, or atleast recolor them? So everyone don't have to go to three or four people all the time.. Would be great--

I have seen many impressive sprites for EU2 and EU3...
Could someone impreove the current armies sprites for Victoria?
Victoria is a great game with very complex political-economical system.
thanks in advance

Here there are some ideas to improve Victoria armies...

thanks!

First of all EU3 unit graphics are nothing like EU2, HOI, Vicky or CK.

I can only recommend you to read all the tutorials you can find here and then start converting yourself, cause it takes so much time that anybody with just another project aswell can't due it and keep up with all other things.
