SWO-RD - banners (optional)

Add one or two banners to units in SWO-RD main mod.

DOCUMENTATION
The documentation of all the mods part of SWO-RD is available here as a PDF document[drive.google.com].

This mod add one or two bannermen to infantry and cavalry unit. This is only for SWO-RD main (not campaitble with Vanilla).
Units have a "type" banner, shared by all the units of the same type, whatever their faction (but it is faction coloured).
And an origin banner, based on the region where it is recruited, or the allied faction when recruitng via outpost.

Warning: the required textures and models are included in separate packs, one for each race. This mod adds the definition of the bannermen in the tables, required to activate them. But without the resource pack, the banners won't be visible in game!

Only a few image included. See the texture packs, or global documentation (link above) form more screenshots


Races currently supported

Animated banners
- Cathay
- Kislev

Static banners:
- High Elves

Other races will be added regularly.

Note: the mod is optional, since it has been reported that banners could generate a bug in post battle (with crazy numbers such as 2000% replenishment). I don't consider this game breaking, but maybe you do.
So if you use the mod, you've been warned!


Note: the shader used to “animate” the banner via a Wind effect was working with WH2 but is bugged in WH3. High Elves banners are therefore static (no animation), until a better solution can be found


Credits:
Battle Standard & Officer https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2817760696 . SWO-RD uses the banner models from this mod, big thanks to the team, and especially Dietrich for his hints and advice. However, the officers and banner textures are specific to SWO-RD. It is recommended not to enable the Battle Standard & Officer together with SWO-RD. This can have compatibility issues, like units showing the officers or banner from both mods at the same time.
