Armored Onna Bugeisha - TAKEDA Version - A Reskin Standalone Sub Mod

Description
Hey fellas. This is a mod per request. This is the TAKEDA version for users of my Takeda Hero Overhaul

PLEASE READ / INSTALL ORDER = If you use this mod as well as my primary Elite Reskin, this mod must load first or else you wont see the changes.
---> Just tick the box for this mod here first --- Launch SHogun 2 --- then exit --- then tick the box for Elite Samurai etc and launch. And you're all good.

One little thing: There WILL be inevitable clipping because of the female hairs. I can't fix it because of how the game just is at its core. No mesh override of helmets unto heads. So yeah. Just so you all know :)

It features 1 single unit overhaul = The Onna Bushi Heroine unit (Gozen's Hime Heroines) and it'll give them a nice paintjob like my main mod does, BUT this mod here will go further and add masks and helmets to them.

On top of that I managed to find 6 new faces ( 5 of which are added here, 6th one caused clipping issues but its present in my main mod wihtout helmets) and they look damn good.

Considering its the Takeda version that means it has a few parts unique to Takeda alike my primary Takeda Overhaul so you're not missing out.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a passion project of mine. Wanted these changes for a long time and just recently realized how variation mesh editing works.

And I just had to share my creative edits.

However. I'd never have been able to do this without the following people mentioned both directly and indirectly.
First of all Makuyi's mod that started my understanding. Thanks a lot to you for creating the fantastic archers here. As well as the cherryblossoms that crashed me system once. Haha!

Kaplan [MA] who created the Legendary Samurai mod. Thank you, man. For letting me build on your mod here and furthermore, thanks for inspiring me to learn more about modding so I'd get around to make this project. Your mod's framework set of off to a fantastic start. Thank you, man.

DPFLH for making custom armor pieces that are found in his mods and Weapon. I recommend that mod highly.

Bullgod for his models. Finally got my permission. Very awesome! Thank you for all your hard work and amazing designs which I used a tiny bit of to enable more variation.

So I wanna be clear I'm uploading this without his express permission as I hope he'll reply to me sometime.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Now. Few details.

Nr 1: Always run this mod FIRST before any other graphical overhaul mods you might have. You can do this via a mod-manager or simply use the default mod manager from CA, tick the mod box, run game. Then quit and enable the other mods.

Nr 2: If you are unhappy with my designs or such, dont worry. I will include a tutorial sometime here where I describe exactly what you gotta do to EASILY mod this pack.file and manually edit out the stuff you dislike.

Nr 3: I hope to get in touch with Bullgod soon. But if I never do, I'll upload a version of Takeda Shingen, using his models to finally put a mask on him.

Something I've dreamt of for years but have never been able to do, and nobody have done it publically.
I hope I can get his permission as requested but he has abandoned his work soon 3 years ago and I dont know the status of his work overall anymore.

Time shall tell and lets hope :)

This mod is a combination of the efforts of others. I'm merely a creative editor that finally got some dreams come true.
Credit goes to us all. But primarily you guys. Thanks for helping me with the framework, the inspiration and fantastic original designs.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also. I recommend the following mods to enhance / complete / tailor your experience here:

Nr 1: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?540561-Daimyos-amp-Generals-MOD-(updated-feb-26-2016-reupload) By Bullgod. His amazing mod turning generals into legendary figures visually as they are historically.

Nr 2: My fixed Archers of the Wind mod made by Makuyi. It's a truly wonderful unit and if you're an onna bushi lover like myself, you'll enjoy it. I got an update coming to that mod soon. Fixing a few things and possibly adding variation.

Nr 3: The Legendary Samurai Mod by Kaplan [MA]. --https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1138807386 -- You can totally use both my mod here as well as his because this mod only affects Elite units.
So, if you download his, but load mine first. And then his afterwards, you'll see all units in game have their textures altered to be more armored and such. Whilst my elite edits here remaining intact.
Just make sure that my mod loads 1st :)

Nr 4: Shogun Ashikaga mod. -- https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=160740527&searchtext=shogun+ashikaga -- Why? because its models are damn epic and I love to play around with it. But hey, your call :)

Nr 5: The Onna Bushi mods which you can easily find on workshop. I use Onna Bushi Katana and the Onna Pack mod that adds in onna bushi matchlock, archers etc. However take note. The collection mod wont read my changes. For that to happen you gotta edit a few things within that pack.file which I'll explain at a later date in a tutorial. Simple stuff :)

Nr 6: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=324174639&searchtext=heroines The_Yogi's face edits to his Onna Bushi troops. I asked for permission to borrow the textures but I've yet to get a reply. Just a disclaimer. He's the real artist here. I just mixed them together:)

= https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=117316251&searchtext=onna+bushi Katana unit version
= https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1178487465&searchtext=onna+bushi Pack versioin

Nr 6: Whatever the hell you want that doesn't overwrite hero units and generals bodyguard + Onna Bushi. :)

I'm happy I got around to do this. And I hope you, dear reader, will enjoy the results, using them, as much as I have putting these fantastic works of art together as one.

Happy gaming and have fun !

Let me know if you run into issues.

ty for making this mod. after in stalling it i got the Onna-Bugeisha achievement which ive been trying to get for a while and none of the suggested methods of getting it worked. even if it wasnt because of this mod i dont care, you get credit for it :P

it was also nice watching the new armors :D

I wish I could, but unfortunately I have genuinely no idea what could be causing it sadly.
I've tested all my mods substantially to ensure they work independently from others and crash tested them for hours.

I do sometimes hear people report issues but i'm afraid I simply cannot do anything for 1 big reason, and thats because most do not. Therefor I cannot remotely begin analysing where the bug could be.

Modding can be a real pain :)

I hope you fix it somehow, I wish I could help but due to I and others not reporting issues, I simply have absolutely no way of figuring out where or why it would cause issues.

I really want to try this mod, but unluckily, it doesn't work.
I tried three times, the first time my game crashed down, the second time my steam crashed down, the last time my PC crashed down.
Luckily, I fixed my PC and steam, lol.
To be honest, I can't use every mod for this game directly. I have to use PFM to change the pack from mod to movie or patch. If i use mod-manager, surely it won't work. So I have to do the same thing for your mod, and then...Crash.
Would you like to give me some help? I have no idea how to solve these problems.

Sure they are great.
if you want a more elegant unit without armor you can always check my other mods focusing on geisha designs. :)

Not quite sure what you mean but if you mean if they are female, then yes.
