A last try at the class-based skins

This was a personal pet project that I was messing with on and off for awhile. I decided to go public with it and literally a week later Pure was introduced causing me to drop everything until I better understood Pure. To be honest I really did expect Valve to have released something better than this by now.

I've got somebody lined up to help me with the lines of code that need to be added to a server's whitelist if they should decide to allow it. So far I've had no trouble on servers yet, but I also have no idea what those Pure settings were ;)

It's nothing spectacularly new. It's the old Late War / Early War skin packs with all the new Redux bells and whistles added, plus some serious attention given to some of the faces. I say some because I've really stopped working on it and I am just going to release as-is

No this will not make your game FPS better :) Screens are with 2048 textures, which were running fine on my ancient machine; There will be alternate 1024 sized textures for less impact on systems.

Sorry about not releasing them yet. I had a change of mind about the axis team at the last moment. They still looked too clone-ish. So I tried tossing in a type-1 camo smock on the sniper. Not gonna be the best illusion as the model does not exact conform to the smock outline, but I did the best I could.

yeah. Was playing Insurgency today, but still got work done. Wife is hinting she needs attention though. Yes, just what it sounds like. She wants to play patty-cake.

Personally I think that looks awesome mate, glad you decided to add it as it's nice to have a bit of variety among the classes. I wouldn't worry too much about it exactly conforming to the model, it's still a hell of a skin in my opinion, and I'm sure others will agree! I'm certainly looking forward to this release, hope it comes soon, need a bit of new life in my game. ;)
