Are you still available?


Unfortunately I'm a little pressed for time at the moment and can't really commit to a game with any consistency. Perhaps in the near future? Thanks for asking though :)

@andrzej

I'll keep this in mind. Looks great and could be very useful. Thank you very much! :)

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

If somebody could point me in the direction of a site or two containing some good cavalry (both Union & CSA) illustrations I'd be very grateful. There seems to be quite a few Confederate cavalry pictures to choose from but remarkably few of Union Cavalry.
Cheers!

I can't say I've ever used that defensive posture lest it turn a bad situation into a disaster.

Re: Why did I lose this battle??

With an entrenched Johnston and 16,000 men vs Banks and 24,000 I'd fancy my chances of a successful defense any day of the week. Did Johnston withdraw? If not, hold your ground and hopefully Banks will attack you again and you can bleed his army dry and set yourself up nicely for an overwhelming cou...

Re: Colourisation...

I'm curious what would happen if you gave a photo to an AI text-to-image program, asking for a clean-up and overhaul... I think it can do a good job of creating portraits very close to the original, yet different. Imagine the generals we know, but with a different posture than in the photos we are ...

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

Sounds awesome! It's an awful lot of fun to play I assure you. Gives the game a very different feel, which was the desired effect. This mod was never intended to be highly ambitious and/or far-reaching - just a few additions of new generals (actually lots!) and a few (relatively) simple changes tha...

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

Your feedback is more than welcome :) The pics look great, and 7-day turns would be fantastic if everything is balanced. My main question is: what is the other "new hotness?" The pics you see here are just a few of what will be included in the mod. There are lots more that have yet to be ...

Launch the 114 turns campaign as the CSA, select the most powerful force.

How many horses does it have?

Hey so quick update on my self-taught modding experience: Yesterday, after 2+ hours of rigorous and exhaustive coding, enduring numerous crashes and re-launches just to crash again, and otherwise endurance-testing frustrations, I successfully modded in a new naval unit into the game!

Re: Colourisation...

As it is, I still think I prefer my rather rough hewn colorisations using only the freest of free programs :hat: though I wouldn't discount the possibility of paying for an upgraded program in the near future as I quite enjoy the work :)

Hi mate! Thanks for getting back to me! It was a lot of work, as what you're seeing here is less than 50% of the generals and admirals that will be added, but as much work as it was, it was very satisfying work to say the least. Particularly when I was able to see them actually added to the game! Be...
