Play RealRTCW with Venom Mod skins & fixed subtitles.
This pack contains German uniforms extracted out of the latest Venom Mod update and copied to RealRTCW. The mod is created for people who appreciate RealRTCW's gameplay improvements but prefer Venom Mod's HD versions of vanilla enemy skins.
How to install: just copy "z_realrtcw_models_characters" to a "RealRTCW/Main" subfolder and overwrite the archive with the same name there.
These skins are not my creation; all credit goes to H3llBaron & WolfETPlayer (the authors of Venom Mod & RealRTCW). The mod is made for RealRTCW 4.0 and may or may not be compatible with its further iterations. If the latter is the case, I may update PK3 archives to incorporate any new changes.
Bonus: I've also included fixes for RealRTCW's subtitles that contained a number of mistakes. If you want to play with the fixed subtitles, copy "z_realrtcw_localization" to "RealRTCW/Main" and overwrite the same file in that folder.
Sorry, but og RealRTCW models characters more better, that from Venom mod

P.s: don't bite me, i just say my opinion.
They may be more historically accurate, but that's about the only advantage those skins have over their Venom Mod counterparts. I replaced RealRTCW models with Venom Mod ones anyway as the latter look much sharper and more detailed, and the textures used in Venom Mod have a higher resolution than those from RealRTCW. Besides, this mod is for people who prefer original HD enemy models. As I haven't been able to find anything similar, I decided to make this mod myself.
I used the model of the first SS guard in Paderborn for comparison:
1. RealRTCW's i_bodyallgemeine.tga (512x512): 204 KB in size, the textures look blurry:

2. Venom Mod's i_body3.jpg (1024x1024): 672 KB in size, the textures are much more pleasant to look at:

As I already said in the mod description, I like RealRTCW, but there is still lots of room for improvement in regards to character models used in it. I hope WolfETPlayer will update RealRTCW's uniforms using AI upscale programs or something to bring them on par with the Venom Mod ones.
Hello @tim1936, as I am a fan of RTCW and I like to play this new version 4.0 with the original skins from the classic version, in this Venom mod I noticed some things that should be set to original too, like the skin of the main characters such the uniform of Professor Zemph and the faces of Deathshead and Himmler too, also the lab coats of some doctors who appear in the X-Labs and Supersoldier missions, are supposed to be blue as in the original instead of white.
If you can make any updates to this mod according to my request I would be grateful, big hugs for you!
Hello RamTos93, I've made a new update to the mod with the changes you requested (Zemph, Deathshead, Himmler, lab scientists etc).
Hello again, this is exactly what I wanted to make the game more classic in these skins styles with the new update.
As soon as possible I will download the file to try it and also in the other addon packs to see if it works well, then I will say something if necessary.
Thank you very much for my favor and a big hug my friend, you were very helpful!
Hello once again, I downloaded the file to play and it really works perfectly, it's so awesome that I even recommend it to those who like to enjoy RealRTCW in this kind of mod so original.
Thanks again @tim1936, you did a great job!
Hello guys, in this Venom mod I noticed a few things that should be configured to original too, like the skin of main characters such as Professor Zemph, Deathshead and Himmler, and also the lab coats of some doctors that should be blue instead of white, in the X-Labs and Supersoldier missions.
