Missing French Hussards/2 Chasseurs models

There are no Hussards in the French OOB, instead there are two (horse) Chasseurs models (140FRAChasseur.mdl and 143FRAChasseurs.mdl) with completely different stats. French Light Cavalry divisions are composed of a mix of these two models; from their stats I guess that the second model should be Hussards (the ingame name and the picture should be changed).

Thanks for this great game btw, once it will be a little more polished it will be simply fantastic !

Could you explain your request? There are indeed no Hussars, they are called "Chasseurs"

Well in Napoleon's Campaigns there were 2 types of French light cavalry, Hussards and Chasseurs with different names/stats/pictures etc. In this game there are 2 types of light cavalry too but they are called "Chasseurs" and "Chasseur" (the same name without the "s" at the end) ingame ; they use the same picture but have different stats and use different .mdl files. I was assuming that one of these models was in fact the old hussars model and that the two models had been mixed up somehow (it feels a bit strange not to have "real" french hussars units in a game with such a detailed OOB).

For example the "15FRADivision de cavalerie legere 1805" uses a mix of the two models, which is a bit weird (some elements are called "Chasseurs", other "Chasseur" (without the "s"), they don't have the same stats etc).

(I know I'm a bit nitpicking :) )

OK, understand it better. Will check that in the DB and fix it.
