This only contain the terrains because steam dont let me upload the .drs files that contain the new units.

Here you have the download link:

Also here you have the official forum to check all the WIP and see how the units where made:

http://aok.heavengames.com/cgi-bin/forums/display.cgi?action=st&fn=4&tn=41489&f=4,,0,30&st=575

If you have any suggestion it would be good to post in that forum, because i barely know how to use steam.

I am interested to keep improving the graphics, so if you have any concept art of any unit that you will like to see in game, post it there for future patches.

This is the last version of the mod, is 90% done. The only original graphics that didnt change for now are villagers, king, siege units and monks... But they will be changed soon :)


The download files is at Moddb i dont know why steam dont let me put the link directly, in that page there are the instructions needed to install it and more screenshots.

Credits:

-Pesequeira for some of his terrain textures.

-Sebastien for his Cliffs.

-Aok heaven community for all the help concerning concept art pics and the millions of complains that helped me to keep a decent quality and historically accurated at the same time.

-Ozhara for the help to fix some preview issues on steam.

The mod is still in development, so expect new graphics soon. Is possible that some units will change according the suggestions posted here and AoK forums.

Known issues:

- When the unit die it doesnt decompose like the original, his corpse remain on the floor longer.

- This issue is not my fault but i need to mention it. During gameplay you will notice that the Paladin have 2 lances and the champion 2 swords in their standing position, this is a problem of the HD version that i dont understand why the Developers didnt fix it yet.

______________

This is a public free open source mod, if you want to modify any graphic, or just use a few for your own proyects, feel free to do it, there is no need to give me any credit or anything similar.

This was made for fun.

Just use it, edit it or do as you please and have fun!

Select and copy the files graphics.drs and interfac.drs
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Age2HD\Data

The units should be working now.

__________

-This can be used with no problems in multiplayer, it doesnt cause data sync errors.

-It doesnt work with "The Forgotten" DLC. If you insist to use it with the DLC installed, dont copy the interface.drs and will work but with some minor errors, like no new icons, or the archer switching skins.

-The villagers are not included in this version even if you see one screenshot of them (was to show you guys some progress about what is coming on the next patch).
