NR trooper Version 1 image - Star Wars:Shattered Empire mod for Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption
Star Wars Shattered Empire is a mod based around the 30 year gap between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens,Bringing you the New Republic,Imperial Remnant,Restored Empire and First Order.
Alright so you guys know if you played Battlefront Commander i tried to make infantry a lot of fun to use in the game sometimes failing to do that and other times it succeed, One of the things i wanted to do really badly in that mod was to make it so units didn't just die while running but with the animations i used that was impossible cause they always held the gun either lowered when running or in some other position.
Well with this mod i plan to change that a bit starting now as you probably see the first order stormtroopers hold their gun down while idle well they are going to get a complete reanimation soon to match the rest of the base infantry in the mod and here is a photo of just that.
I have set down and used a tool for Dice's Battlefront that allows me to use a free cam and move around the map freely and i set and watched the stormtroopers and rebels for a good while to see just how they stand idle,walk,shoot and throw grenades to closely copy that in some way.
I already finished the basic stormtroopers along with their planet variants and are moving onto the rebels now, the rebels will come in 2 versions one version is from tech level 1-3 which are basically just normal rebels seen in the OT and then from 4-5 the old ones will be removed from the build bar but from 1 planet and that is Yavin 4 (for people that still want them)while the style of the New Republic troopers will step in and be your main basic infantry.
Credit for the model is DICE and animations me
Basically what's going to happen here is units will be able to defend themselves while moving around the map. Also all basic infantry in the mod like normal Stormtroopers,Rebels/New Republic Soldiers will come with the ability to throw grenades.
nice work
Sweet more mods need ground overhalls.
Yes they do and i really hate it when mods tend to only care about space and never land, one mod being Knights of the Old Empire 1 - Awakening telling people he thinks it's boring...ect i just don't get people like that.
Completely agree I play a lot of the Star Wars - Clone Wars Mod because of how enjoyable it's ground combat is and well cause I adore the TCW
What ground battles need more then any type of unit mix up is good qualtiy maps. which most modders seem reluctant to do and i don't blame them.
