Re: Byzantine skins
Maybe this will be great if this unit will be added not as skins but the real byzantine unit

Re: Byzantine skins
Please retain image names as in original if possible.
It's additional and completely needless work to find them, copy image names and rename again.
As for images:
- Light cavalry could loose a shield and some armor, just to avoid mistaking for knights. Ace looks almost exactly like knight.
- pikemen have too short pike, while all spearmen have too long ones. There is barely any difference in length between them (and pikemen represent units with weapons > 4.5m long, while spearmen with length around 1.8-2.4m)
- too little difference in look between foot knight and the rest of infantry. Especially in regards of armor. Either foot knight having more armored look or the rest - a little less would be better.

Re: Byzantine skins
Ill lose the shield then.
I assume people will confuse them anyway as they are skins much different from original look which is why I think the notion of them looking the same is not much warranted.
Ill do that.
Same as what I said on the first one though...
They have much difference in shied which can make them easily distinguishable.
Also, I want them more uniformed for the skin... Albeit that itself can make things more confusing I will assume those obvious big differences equalize if not overpower that.
Another thing I did though to not match them with their exact upgrade level in terms of looks which I assume would easily clear things up as it wouldn't make sense you see them and once you get used to them.
Do you mean those with "_" for spaces or their name in game?
Re: Byzantine skins
Im honestly unsure if the name is what it is cause ive seen in other games some repetitions of units but here for the archer

Re: Byzantine skins
Well - if you are not making those from original images, then it's just looking for image name on your side.
I thought you take original and rename it for some reason.
If that is not the case - then don't bother.
As for image differences - remember, that those are global and even if e.g. foot knight in your skin pack is distinguishable from the rest - it should also not make it too hard if that would be the only skin applied.
Just to not make things worse for other players.

Re: Byzantine skins
Yeah, I copy it from my own cause that is much easier for me to track the changes. But since Im still making small changes and have a list of the unit with the names. Ill just try it anyway.

The skin if applied alone will make it much easier to distinguish from what I see and I assume if in, it's as noticeable as how different the swordsman line is to the shielder line when applied in the game.
I also do think that this skin will be even more distinguishable than my older "matatag army" skin.
