@A Jedi In Exile yeah typically with mods that add skins, they're usually only available in the editor unless a mod author has packaged them with missions.

is this only for editor? Kinda new to the modding scene with this game

ok

@knightwolf20039 Yes

Does this still work?

@doherty0182 I will definitely try this out. Thank you, I really appreciate you answering my questions and I look forward to the future updates from you and the devs

@Raspy0510 No the game version is to align with the current version of MOWAS2, "0.76" is just the current version of GAW which isn't relevant to this. I've seen mods in the past that just has re-textures or skins without being set up with the necessary files for plug-and-play. If that's the case then you're going to have to make your own mod build and set it up with the necessary files.

say you downloaded just assets, you'll have to transfer them in the correct folders, add breeds and the mod.info file. I recommend looking at the file/folder structure from other skin mods to learn how they're set up. It's surprisingly straight forward, besides that I recommend joining Galaxy at war's discord you can be provided with better support there than the steam workshop comments.

@doherty0182 Sorry, I don’t mean to keep asking questions, I’ve just been at this for months and I keep hitting the same brick wall

@doherty0182 okay so if the mod is older than the game version (0.76) then it won’t be ableto be put in the game? Also, only one of the handful of addons I’ve tried to download have had the mod.info file, and I can’t seem to find out why that is.

@Raspy0510 I can't really speak for independent creators and what state their mods are in. One thing you could try however is to look at the mod.info file when you first initially open up your chosen mod's folder. You will need notepad or notepad ++. Make sure that the versions are as follows: {MinGameVersion "3.262.0"}
{MaxGameVersion "3.265.0"}

change to the versions to this ^ and save.

since its on moddb sometimes uploaded mods on there don't get maintained for current game versions like those on the steam workshop especially if its a good few year old.

@doherty0182 I have also looked for tutorial videos on this problem, but can never seem to find one

@doherty0182 I am specifically talking about just clone addons done by Atrov and other creators on Modb, such as the addon of all the commanders. Every time I download the file and move it into my mod folder it never seems to show on either my editor tab or being able to activate it like any other mod i download off steam. Sometimes it will show in my breed file, but I can't make them into playable units.

@Raspy0510 Depends on what add-on you're referring to usually if you're downloading from moddb you extract the folder into your MOWAS2 mod folder. Then you can activate it like any other workshop mod. If its other mods like for example the animated clone skin packs; I've seen quite a few that add just the skins but no breeds are created. If thats the case you can either create your own breeds using notepad or notepad++ or you can just place a unit down in the editor and manually change its skin navigating the properties tab to the right side when a unit is selected.

@doherty0182 gotcha gotcha. While I have your attention, I am having trouble on trying to put the clone addon skins into the game on Modb. Anyway I try to download it and move the files over, it never seems to work in game or even appear on my editor tab. Idk if you know how to fix this, but since you're working for the Galaxy at War devs, i thought you might know how to help me out since no one else I've asked can.

@Raspy0510 I cannot say there is a lot of work to do, It'll definitely be worth the wait.

@doherty0182 You are doing gods work my friend, thank you so much. When will this update be ready if you happen to know?

@balinackerman I'm actually the dude that is officially working on the clone revamp for Galaxy at war. I've had the full intent from the start to make the overhaul fully comprehensive I can confirm that you will see those characters listed as well as many others that currently aren't in 0.76 in the future update for galaxy at war.

Hey man, could you PLEASE make clone units that aren't in the game such as Commander Mayday, Commander Fil, and even Captain Tuk from the new fan series? I have been praying that somebody would make these guys

@doherty0182 Good stuff. Looking forward to future updates then!

@cereal Milk thanks dude and yes in a sense, After joining the GAW dev team I've been doing skins for the main mod now so a percentage of the skins will be refined and reworked into the main mod, I can't really say much on whats being worked on but lets just say that groundwork has already been laid down for such things.

Class skins, great quality. Do you plan on expanding upon this? Would be great to see some generic models for regular civilians and other non faction specific skins.

@KingSavage Unsure what may have caused that as sometimes other mods can conflict with others. I'd suggest re-subscribing and if that doesn't fix the issue, see if any newer mods you may have activated are causing a conflict.

for some reason half the units dont appear for me the only trooper uni forest but before there were much more choices also the rebel mando clones n wookies are not appearing ether

@McCorny Hi there mate, It's a bit too complicated to explain how to make skins in writing as there's a shit ton of steps. I would suggest to join the Galaxy at war discord, there's a channel there were there's links to various tutorials. https://www.moddb.com/games/men-of-war-assault-squad-2/tutorials here is a link more modding tutorials with links to modding resources and yeah ask about in the modding channel in the discord if you get stuck, lot of friendly dudes on there that are happy to help out.

Hello can you maybe tell me via DM how to make Skins ???
I have no much free time and would really like to help the Community with getting out more and more Skins and Maps !!

THANKS FOR THE MOD ! Gonna give you a Price brother

This Is the Way

@Desert Punk I'd really love to as I'm quite a big fan of Jango and his pre-clone wars stories especially when he took on six jedi by himself. Unfortunately right now I'm too spread thin with Dev work for Galaxy at war as well as helping others making sub-mods for the main mod, so I can't take any extra projects on. I'm happy to offer any guidance you might need and If you haven't already you can join the Galaxy at war discord, there's quite a lot of people in there that can answer any questions you have including me and the other devs.

would you be willing to take requests? I have a set of Mandalorian skins i've been working on that are simply nowhere near this level of quality. I would be super excited to collaborate or even get some pointers and guidance to add some polish to my work.

i'm working on a set of True Mandalorian skins as seen in the "Open Seasons" comic -- a pre-clone wars story about Jango Fett and his time with Jaster Mereel's mercenary outfit.

@Moto Moto ah yeah I see why, thank for reporting. I wouldn't bother with the rebel shock-troopers for now as their model is being replaced for a better design in the next update.

Rebel human shocktrooper corporal crashes the game for me

@Desert Punk Yeah the kit bashed models are all done in Max. The kota militia mandalorian model has pieces from multiple models then matched the colours in photoshop.

As for secret there isn't really any, I'm kind of a bit of a perfectionist and incredibly stubborn. Eventually things start to click and you pick up a few tricks to make modelling and rigging much easier.

From a character design perspective I come from an Art and design background so skills from that seemed to make it an easy transition to 3D.

do you use 3dsMax for combining model bits together? Those Kota Militia Mandalorian models look completely original. what's your secret??

@Desert Punk Thank you for the recognition mate, it means a lot. As for programs I used Photoshop incorporating photo-bashing, painting techniques and multiple layers.

incredible. The rigging and animations fit beautifully, not a single warping model to be seen. this must've taken an absolutely insane time investment -- the love put into the characters, the recolors and resounds of the guns, factions, etc. absolutely amazing. what programs do you use for creating the texture files? this stuff is on a whole other level

@jpariusx yes it does.

Doesn't work

hot

@第四季！？_overlord96 There aren't any in this mod...

anyone knows where to get clone commandos?

@JKbraxton all clone leaders fixed now

@JKBraxton Right okay I'll take a look they are severely under finished as stated in the description.

its the leader clones

@JKBraxtons which ones exactly?

@doherty0182 it is when i try to place down a specific unit at the moment it is the clone troopers

@JKBraxton Okay so when is it exactly crashing for you? Is it crashing on start up or when you place down a specific unit?

it says with the crash error that its an unknown entity

So good.

@braystar3 hiya mate, currently I'm bogged down with a lot of projects so it will be a very long time before I could get round to making those. Currently the clones are being overhauled by rev as he's showcased in the GAW discord. Until the overhaul is finished I'd rather not touch anymore of the clones as it would create a lot of extra work to make the current match the new models and textures.

@JKBraxton Its because certain helmets names are too long so they they're not downlading the files properly. Should be fixed now and updated Need to check on the jetpacks.

hi im braystar3 ive downloaded your new clone skins i was wondering if you would be able to make the Geonosis_Troopers and airborne troopers legion ph2 even the flame troopers from the clone wars T.V series from ph1.

my game keeps crashing every time i try putting one of these down
