Colonialism 1600AD - 1600s mod for Empire Total War

Colonialism 1600AD is a 17th century mod for Empire Total War (PC)  first released in 2014. The mod reflects the changes from diverse to more uniform military dress, the decline of armour, the transition from arquebus-to-matchlock-to-flintlock muskets and from pike to bayonet. To play you will need the original  Empire Total War (PC) game. Installation instructions are below after the screenshots.

Some screenshots. Many more here.

To install. Download from here and follow installation instructions:

1.Place user.empire_script in C:\Users\...\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Empire\scripts. Delete the previous scripts already located there first.

2. Place Col_loc_en, Col_models, Col_ui, colmod, Colo_events, Pikeman_animation_MOD, and patch_general_andy's_musket_sounds in the Data folder. The Data folder can be found in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Empire Total War\data.

3. If "new.pack" is in your Data folder, delete it.

4. Download the crashfix from the Addon section and install in the Data folder over the existing Col_models.pack.

5. Next place startpos.esf in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Empire Total War\data\campaigns\main. Now start Empire Total War as normal through Steam. Do not use Modmanager as this may prevent the faction specific generals from working. It is very important that you only install the patch after you install the core mod files. If you have new.pack from the previous installation then make sure to delete it so as to avoid crashes.

Some generals in this period wore a cuirass under their justaucorps. A portrait exists of John Churchill, later Duke of Marlborough, doing so. In contrast, Electoral Max II Emmanuel of Bavaria is depicted wearing a cuirass over it. Still others are depicted wearing corselets. Here is some of my work on the three types of general. NB The generals bodyguard models are not done yet and will change from the ETW originals. The last one is Spanish and based on the research of the Count of Clonard in the 1850s. Some Spanish generals seem to have worne purple, but no country had a general's uniform per se at this time (Saxony introduced one only in 1733). So I largely relying on portraiture and paintings of battles as a source. The generals are also replaced on the campaign-map models. General in corselet ...
