Re: Upcoming Mod - New Generals, 7 day turns & Other Hotness!

I actually think there is at least a staff officer or two hiding in the tent. You can actually see a full on uniform and boots seated just in the shadow. I notice that a lot of colorings tend to make the grass too pristine. Sure in certain areas, but if you've ever been at a fairground or music fest...

Re: Upcoming Mod - New Generals, 7 day turns & Other Hotness!

Well, I just did a coloring of Brewster. An outdoor photo as well, so not just the portrait. Turned out surprisingly well (though I've spent the last two days - really finished the bulk of the coloring on day one in an hour or so - but the last two days tinkering with the brightness and contrast and...

Re: Upcoming Mod - New Generals, 7 day turns & Other Hotness!

Really any photo will a lower quality is just that much harder to look right (and I'm in a rut right now trying to get back into coloring because I'm struggling with even really good quality photos). This confederate general looks excellent.

Re: Upcoming Mod - New Generals, 7 day turns & Other Hotness!

Thanks a lot! Yeah, unfortunately I've gotten away from coloring...just not a lot of time, but I'm trying to get back into it (but feeling frustrated with the process and results, guess I'm just out of practice). I think everything I've colored should be on my facebook page (again, I'm so out of tou...

Re: Upcoming Mod - New Generals, 7 day turns & Other Hotness!

I could have sworn you posted a link for this and released it. Am I mistaken? What are you using to color the photos?

Re: Portrait mod

I don't think so. I backed up the original game to an external drive, and then modified models, units, and added the unit, army, and leader portraits. They showed up in game before...and in fact, my portrait of Speed Fry shows up correctly, but everyone else that SHOULD have a photo is just a clone.

Good idea fudging a "civilian" photo to create a decent photo for him during the war. Its a shame that some of these guys don't have really good quality photographs available from the war.

Yeah, always better to cut into the subject than having a lighter surrounding color.

I'll try that Smith. Still not the BEST but I think it is a bigger source than the one I used (which was downright tiny).

I already did Smith (before I really got much better), but there is little that can be done with him. The source photo is very poor :(

George Getty is a guy I'd like to redo. Noticed him in the game. I have some Crook pictures in my folder. He'll be coming along at some point ;)

I referred to vanilla sizes, but otherwise, I haven't experienced ANY of my creations in-game yet! I'll pay attention to it going forward. Thanks for the feedback! Like I said, haven't been able to judge for myself in-game.

Yeah, noticed that...also in the stacks the units outside of divisions (for me, I keep artillery at the corps/stack level) is all mixed up...a supply unit, then artillery unit, then another supply, then maybe a HQ unit, then another artillery...strange.
