More Historical Sprites

Descripción
A more expansive, ambitious and slightly higher-effort companion mod to my previous one.

Recolours many countries' generic on-map uniforms (which are rather awkwardly based on the colours of the corresponding nations' coats-of-arms for some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ reason) to slightly more historical combinations.

The "slightly" is owed to the fact that the current game version is rather constrained when it comes to unit sprites; You can only pick up to three colours per nation (tunic, trousers and cap respectively, with the trouser colour also painting cuffs, collars and cap details) to cover the entire game setting (1830s to 1930s).
According to my not-so-professional opinion, this is definitely a placeholder mechanism that's destined to be overhauled by the devs in a future expansion. Once (or if) that rolls around, this mod will be broken and will have to be either replaced from scratch or retired. So there's your heads-up.

I have also taken some artistic licence to make the sprites look pleasing, dapper and presentable from the player's typical bird's eye view.

Current nations:

- UK
- FRANCE
- RUSSIA
- AUSTRIA
- PRUSSIA
- US
- OTTOMAN EMPIRE

- NETHERLANDS
- BELGIUM
- SPAIN
- PORTUGAL
- SARDINIA-PIEDMONT
- TWO SICILIES
- PAPAL STATES
- SWEDEN
- DENMARK
- MEXICO
- BRAZIL
- JAPAN
- EAST INDIA COMPANY, AUSTRALIA, CANADA (generic British colonial pattern)
- PHILIPPINES, CUBA, PUERTO RICO, SANTO DOMINGO (inspired by colonial Rayadillo pattern)
- BAVARIA
- SAXONY
- SWITZERLAND
- GREECE
- GREAT QING

- AUSTRIA-HUNGARY
- ITALY
- CSA
- GERMANY (based on the pre-WW1 'Feldgrau')

Update 1.1:
- KOREA
- SIAM
- COLOMBIA; GRAN COLOMBIA
- ARGENTINA
- CHILE
- PARAGUAY
- URUGUAY
- HANOVER
- BADEN
- WURTTEMBERG
- HESSE
- NORTH GERMAN FEDERATION (Prussian colours)
- SOUTH GERMAN FEDERATION (Bavarian colours)
- PERSIA

Update 1.2
- NORWAY
- CEYLON (generic British colonial pattern)
- EGYPT
- ETHIOPIA (pre-Mussolini Khaki colours)
- POLAND
- HUNGARY
- SERBIA
- ROMANIA

I highly recommend using this mod alongside those of the talented Zwei833 the Buggy Modder, whose work has served as a major inspiration, specifically his German Unit Models Pack and Soldiers Patrolling at Peace Time.
They should be compatible.

My previous mod (Back To Black) is also compatible, albeit largely redundant.

The graph on that last screenshot, could you include all of it? I'd like to see which colors all nations have.

Could I incorporate this into my Better Country Colors mod?

Thank you for your sacrifice! There was only one way to find out!

This is awesome! I made a similar mod a year ago, but back then the uniform colors were derived from the country's flag, so I had to change the language used for each flag in the game files in order to change the uniform, but the tricky part was doing that without actually changing how the flag looked in game. Huge pain in the ass. I'm so glad Paradox made it easier to mod, and even happier that you've gone and done it for all these nations! Bravo!

@ fryslan0109

The load order doesn't matter, since this mod doesn't edit the same files as German Unit Models Pack and Soldiers Patrolling at Peace Time

What is the ideal load order for this mod? I know the German Units pack is supposed to come before patrolling soldiers, but where does this mod fit in relative to those?

@Waddle The unit colors baked into the country definitions is a really new feature (1.8 or 1.9 I think?) and PDX probably didnt want to invest the time to go through almost all the country definitions to fix the colors when they have stuff that's more important or more visible than the army dioramas to address.
