Your favourite "perfect" skinpack.
« on: January 15, 2011, 07:09:54 AM »
Actually, I'm being sort of selfish here...
See, I really like various skin mods, I've listed above, but find each of them in particular somewhat unsatisfying:
My most favourite equipment would be that, introduced by RSP, but I'm getting annoyed of all this fancy camouflage, which was far less than common, in fact.
Battle of the Bulge presents us with some real nice winter skins, but these aren't really fitting into blossoming summer maps.
All the rest of 'em skinpacks, just to cut it short, can't satisfy my appetites, to settle down with just one of them once and for long, either. Though, in each of them, there is something appealing.
So, basically, I wonder, does anyone know some "perfect" skinpack, or maybe, someone has created  one for his very own personal use?
[WHISPER: In the latter case, I would appreciate, if he shared it with me, through the use of PM] ;)

I'm using a custom skinpack made with a mish-mash of pretty much everything I found and liked so almost every unit from all factions have new skins. And randomly generated skins FTW  ;D

I'm particularly interested in having grey field german uniforms with all the equipment and squad leader, that so many skin packs offer, intact. But it's such a headache mixing them up!
So, if you should happen to have any of such, it would really be nice of you, if you wouldn't mind sharing it.  :D

I was never into dressing up my toys. :P
But my vote goes to Hellfox (although its not his skinpack), becouse I like his vidcasts.

Sadly enough, a skinpack I have from him, is full of camo, just as so many others. I find it awfully irritating, I must say. ::)

Like this? My Clanmate did a skin pack with grey uniforms and new ally skin.
Personally, I never tried any skin pack.

1. Is there a good site where I could find details regarding installation of skins?
2. How can I make a personal mixup, such as happycat's?
3. How can you make them randomly generate?

I am completely new to this (never even heard of it before today) and would love to learn. Thanks!

here are some pics of the WH units (notice that pioneers and KCH are now SS and have swastika armbands plus I'm using a realistic flag mod so if you're offended by these things ignore this post)




also all PE units have camo skins but if you still want this pack regardless PM me

I've only tried the RSP so far, and I may be wrong, but wasn't Infantry Camo far less common and generally reserved for more elite troops (such as the SS)?

I'd say guess that giving every unit except a weapon and vehicle crews and Volksgrenadiers camo was going overboard. I like the Vehicle Camo though, and the American Skins are pretty good.


I'd try some others but there's just too many out there, any suggestions on good ones?
