Changelogs
Version 1.1
New optional file: Pride of the Craftworld, a new and more elaborate version of the Autarch cranking up the detail. Ignores team color entirely but has 3 variations based on popular craftworlds (Saim Hann, Biel Tan, Ulthwé) plus a random combination I liked.
Version 1.0
New units added: Pretty much all the others! Quite a few minor edits - the vehicles didn't need as much help as some of the infantry.
Tentative final version.
Version 0.8
New unit added: Spiritseer
New unit added: Ranger
New optional file: Into the Shroud, alternate version of the Rangers with hidden faces.
Version 0.7
New unit added: Avatar of Khaine
New optional file: Violent Void, an alternate version that gets rid of the face entirely. Suffer neither of those ugly mugs.
Version 0.6
New unit added: Farseer Skyrunner
Modified: Wraithblades - toned down the reflections on the main body. Team colors should be more prominent now.
New optional file: Worn Wraithblades. A slight change to their SIC file giving them a grittier look.
Version 0.5
New unit added: Fire Dragons
Version 0.4
New unit added: Wraithblades
Version 0.3
New unit added: Howling Banshees
Modified: Eldar Guardians, Autarch - backpedal on custom normal maps; method used was hurting model definition. Might revisit the concept later. Original Normal files included for ease of replacement.
Modified: Eldar Guardians - retrace of the chest piece, better definition.
Version 0.2
New unit added: Eldar Autarch
Modified: Eldar Guardian - chest glow removed; other minor tweaks.
Version 0.1
Release. Eldar Guardian only.
What is this?
Alternative textures for most Eldar units. Nothing particularly fancy - mostly changes to how reflective they appear to be, extra glowing details and some extra color separation.
Variations I find interesting will be available as optional files in the download section. Might still add some sporadically but I consider the bulk of the work on this one finished.
Installation
Either copy the downloaded files to Gladius' dedicated mod folder or navigate to \Data\Video\Textures\Units\Eldar and replace the respective .dds files there with mine. If using the latter method, backup all relevant files first.
To uninstall, simple delete the downloaded files or overwrite them with the backup.
