Immersion Pack - An Audiovisual Overhaul

Description
IMMERSION PACK – Overhaul Mod for Battle of Empires: 1914-1918

The Immersion Pack is a full (mostly) audiovisual overhaul for Battle of Empires: 1914-1918, designed to bring the battlefield experience closer to the brutal, immersive reality of the First World War.

Key Features:
  • Reworked voiceovers for French, German, and Italian soldiers – grounded, era-appropriate voices
  • New sounds for every small arm – all small arms now feature updated, realistic audio
  • Updated PBR materials – improved visuals for gear like metal helmets, to bring them up to speed with the other assets in the game
  • Overhauled gore system – new blood textures for limbs, improved death screams (no more low quality Russian death screams!)
  • Removed "Last Stand" mechanic – fairer, more rewarding combat without punishment for finishing enemies
  • New infantry animations – including a custom bolt-cycling mechanic for bolt-action rifles (WIP: only when lying down for now)


Credits & Asset Sources:
  • Red Orchestra 2 / Rising Storm (Tripwire Interactive) – voiceovers and general ambiance
  • Day of Infamy (New World Interactive) – voiceovers
  • Call to Arms (Digitalmindsoft) – animation and sound cues
  • Battlefield 1 (DICE / Electronic Arts) – voice samples
  • Verdun, Tannenberg, Isonzo (BlackMill Games / M2H) – gun sounds and atmosphere
This is a non-commercial fan-made project. All rights to original assets remain with their respective developers.

Please feel free to report any issue or leave suggestions down in the comments, enjoy!

Thanks for the kind words!
@Sheva2024 I agree, I'll remove them whenever I'm back on my computer. About the missions, the files are unfortunately encrypted and can't be modified, I spoke to the devs about it and they can't change it as it would go against the contract they signed with the makers of the missions, IIRC...

It's nice to see people still uploading mod, or atleast some people, I played this game a lot back then but got through it to play men of war etc, over all nice job

Hi, I liked the mod, but the animation of people walking is a bit bad, they seem to be walking in place, and so imba, I started playing this game again in a new way, I also use such mods with yours, namely Kottenpack: Persistence, FX Remastered Mod, if anyone knows mods that improve the game and fix game bugs like the Battle of Pozieres and the last British mission, because in a real war it doesn't work, there seem to be problems with the scripts

I tried modeling for the game but the Blender plugin doesn't work and the models I extracted from the game are not usable, I'll see what I can do though

Ok what about helmets? For exampple French Adrian m1915 is to high on the troops head and it looks wierd.
Add jute cover on some british and french helmets(in real life on only germans use them) or leather vest for British and sheep skin vest for French(soldiers only not officers).
Add new units like: MG gunners, grenadiers, flamethrower operators, snipers, NCO's for all factions?(most of them has only "rifleman" unit and that's it)
More guns used historically(mostly handguns sometimes granades)

Ah alright thanks

I am unable to completely remake the uniforms.
As for the theme song, I quite like the OST of the game tbh

Historically accurate uniforms and uhh Maybe Replace the main menu song with Oh Oh Oh its a lovely war

Thank you for the comments.

Feel free to give ideas, and I'll consider them! I'm not very experienced but I'll try
For now I'm trying to fix the bolt action animation which glitches out in trenches (disabled for now)

Do you plan add some more improvements to this quite old game?
