But really this mod is superb and nothing compares to it. Don't know how you did it magus but I am amazed.

Yes, awesome work!!!! downloading the new one now.

EDIT It wasn't working but I the problem is really easy, you typed the new "overlaytextures" file as "overlayrextures", its really easy to fix though

**PeteAce** · July 06, 2008, 07:30 PM

Hi Magus thanks for the quick update. You might want to fix the typo folder name for "overlayrextures". I can't get any dirt, sand or snow to show.

**Barser** · July 06, 2008, 07:52 PM

That is the punishment you guys get for not manually copying the files.

I didn't notice the typo as I was to eager to copy/paste.

**Deckster** · July 06, 2008, 08:13 PM

I just tried a battle with this and all my units turned black. This is probably caused by the problem Hounf said, and I'll fix that and try a custom battle to see if it is fixed. If not, I'll post pics of the issue soon.

Edit: Yup, renaming and merging the folder made it work normally. The dust looks great, but the soldiers were either really dusty or not at all after running to attack the enemy. Maybe you could make it so in the desert, every soldier gets slightly dusty easily, but it takes a long battle to get covered in dust.

**Magus** · July 06, 2008, 08:19 PM

haha oops, I just fixed the typo, I'll re-upload so people don't get confused, thanks guys, oh and the black textures on soldiers thing? hmmmm not sure, maybe you don't have shader 2 selected in video options? not sure.

**strife1013** · July 06, 2008, 08:21 PM

your amazing!

**strife1013** · July 06, 2008, 08:22 PM

can you let us know when it is uploaded so that I can d/l it? The typo fix I mean

Sorry I forgot to use the edit button!

**Magus** · July 06, 2008, 08:25 PM

not a problem should probably be another 10 minutes or so, I'm waiting on filefront

**strife1013** · July 06, 2008, 08:34 PM

Whats your plans for another one...I'm not trying to be greedy or anything like that, just wondering if plans are in the works or your going to move onto something else?

**Magus** · July 06, 2008, 08:41 PM

not sure, I think I might still make some tweaks and things to these textures to make them betterm and them I might possibly work on some other textures... like units, or I was thinking about editing the skins for castles and stuff. I have a feeling I could make some pretty wicked stuff

**strife1013** · July 06, 2008, 08:44 PM

Looking 4ward to whatever you have planned, you have an amazing gift!

I dont know if you know how to make portraits or not and not sure if yellowdog or Y2day are working on them or not but having new in game portraits would be pretty cool.

**Magus** · July 06, 2008, 08:56 PM

good idea, that would be cool..... hmmmm, Oh! the link is back up now by the way, I fixed the typo so just drag and drop install should be ready

**strife1013** · July 06, 2008, 09:01 PM

Sweet Thanks!

Oh another idea, what about remodeling weapons maybe? It's prob a lot of work and would prob. go unnoticed but just an idea.

**PeteAce** · July 06, 2008, 09:20 PM

Magus, I downloaded the updated file, but still can't get the dirt/sand/snow (I see blood only) to show in custom battles with the climate setting. Dirt was working fine with 2.0. I see I have it installed under ...mods\Stainless_Steel_6\data\overlaytextures with the new files.. Did everyone else get it to work?

**strife1013** · July 06, 2008, 09:34 PM

I cant pick weather or anything like that in custom battle as well. Havent tried in a game yet.

**Magus** · July 06, 2008, 09:46 PM

you have to make sure to put the other files into just /data its set up so you should be able to just drop everything into your data folder, the descr_geography_new.db and the descr_effect_impacts,text both need to be in /data, not /data/overlay textures. let me know if you get this worked out.. and also not being able to pick weather in custom battles... I'm not sure, I will try to figure it out though, let me know if you cannot get it working..

**Magus** · July 06, 2008, 09:49 PM

and also, if you're playing on a level with snow, the snow/dirt will only start to show up if you take your soldiers on a jog.

**strife1013** · July 06, 2008, 10:09 PM

I just copied and pasted everything into the data file and from their they overrid whatever files and folders they needed to replace
