ible Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 (edited) Battalion - Stormtroopers Link to current models that are requested to be replaced - The models being replaced are the Gaminglight Stormtrooper models, there is no link. Content size - 139.760 MB Link to new models - (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2807310910) How would this benefit the server? - On the overall server side of things, I believe that the updated enlisted model that is included in the addon not only may enhance overall appeal but also present a more polished image for newcomers, making a better first impression on them. If the new pack is larger in size, do you believe the benefits exceeds the risk of adding more content to the server and why? - The current Stormtrooper models appear outdated with lower-resolution textures and limited bodygroupers customization. These new models rejuvenate the Stormtrooper aesthetic, potentially attracting new players to the battalion and boosting overall player interest, as emphasized in the previous response with the new enlisted model. Job Name - Stormtrooper Current model - models/gaminglight/imperial_troopers/stormtrooper/stormtrooper_enlisted.mdlNew model - models/bunny/stormtrooper_revamp/stormtrooper_trooper.mdlReason for change - Compared to the current enlisted model, this new model presents a more sophisticated appearance with noticeably higher-resolution textures, resulting in an overall improved aesthetic. Description - The new enlisted model offers enhanced textures and improved light reflection, as well as hand models for weapons (Features that are shared with all other Stormtrooper models in this addon). Additionally, it includes a blaster holster on the belt. Job Name - Stormtrooper NCO Current model - models/gaminglight/imperial_troopers/stormtrooper/stormtrooper_officer.mdlNew model - models/bunny/stormtrooper_revamp/stormtrooper_sergeant.mdlReason for change - The current NCO model differs from the enlisted model by featuring only a single pauldron. In contrast, this new NCO model incorporates all the enhancements of the previously mentioned new enlisted model, along with multiple distinctive bodygroupers options that give it a noticeably different appearance. Description - The Sergeant model boasts a wide array of bodygroupers options, encompassing a backpack, ammo satchel, belt holster, and multiple colored pauldron choices. Job Name - Stormtrooper Captain Current model - models/gaminglight/imperial_troopers/stormtrooper/stormtrooper_command.mdlNew model - models/bunny/stormtrooper_revamp/stormtrooper_officer.mdlReason for change - The current captain model is virtually indistinguishable from the current NCO model, differing only in the color of the single pauldron. In contrast, this new captain model introduces a kama, as well as a cape for senior officers, providing it with a distinct appearance separate from the new NCO model. Description - This model shares the same bodygroupers options as the Sergeant model, with the inclusion of a Kama and Cape. Job Name - Stormtrooper Vice Commander Current model - models/gaminglight/imperial_troopers/stormtrooper/stormtrooper_commander.mdlNew model - models/bunny/stormtrooper_revamp/stormtrooper_officer.mdlReason for change - Like the NCO and Captain models, the current Vice Commander model shares an identical appearance, with the sole distinction being the red pauldron. The Captain and Vice Commander will both share the same new models, primarily because various bodygroupers options can be used to distinguish their ranks. The cape will be exclusively worn by senior officers. Description - This model is the same as the previous one. Job Name - Stormtrooper Commander Current model - models/gaminglight/imperial_troopers/stormtrooper/stormtrooper_commander.mdlNew model - models/bunny/stormtrooper_revamp/stormtrooper_commander.mdlReason for change - The Vice Commander and Commander currently utilize identical models. This new model only differs from the previous new Vice Commander model by including an additional, distinct pauldron. This addition serves as a means for distinguishing between the Vice Commander and Commander, should the current Commander choose to utilize it. Description - This model retains all the previous bodygroupers options while introducing an additional pauldron unique to the commander. Do you believe these changes are fair to the battalion it is responsible for and will benefit the server, if so, why? - The current Stormtrooper models are notably outdated, featuring lower-resolution textures and limited customization options within the bodygroupers. These new models bring a revitalized appearance to the Stormtroopers and offer the regiment a fresh and appealing look that could be enticing to new players. Moreover, the new enlisted models not only look more appealing overall but also provide an improved presentation for newcomers, enhancing the initial impression for new players.

Grim Reaper Leviathan Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 +Support The models make the STs a lot more interesting (despite the fact the empire does not want Diversety.)

Fabian Fox Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 +support Love the idea of diverse models for a battalion so large. Would love to see this type of variety for Stormtroopers! Plus it makes first impressions of the server better with better models. Current: No one to worry about...

Manager Beckett Posted September 14, 2023 Manager Share Posted September 14, 2023 DENIED Those are the same models but with a couple extra bodygroups, the textures on our current models across the server have been optimized to improve download and loading times. Additionally, our current models are custom with an editable template, we'd prefer to make edits to our own models rather than replace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
