Details Matter: True Grit Textures (The Empire)

Greetings fellow Total War players!

Details matter and sometimes I feel that CA make some odd choices. And with WH2 and even more so in WH3, I feel that some detail and grit has been lost from WH1 when it comes to the unit textures. Especially for the regular troops for The Empire. I looked over the texture files from WH1 and noticed that a lot of detail is almost entirely missing from these units in WH3. Their clothes and armor is just way too bright and clean looking, and the units just lacks the grit that WH 1 delivered.

So I set out to try and restore that look by going back to the old WH1 files and see if something could be done about it. The difference is subtle but I think it adds a bit of grit and detail back to the units.

In a sense, I have applied Nuln Oil to these models….

Recreates all textures for the following units based on their WH1 textures. I have also used AI upscalling to double the resolution of some of the textures to make them slightly more crisp.

• Regular State Troop units
• Greatswords
• Captain
• General
• Karl Franz
• Artillery Crew units
