Or close the wall up with our English dead.
In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility:
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage;"
-Shakespeare's Henry V
"If, filled with pride, you say, 'I will not fight,' it is all in vain. You are foolish. Fight you will, your nature will make you fight. Your karma will make you fight. You will fight in spite of yourself."
-Mahabharata, Book Six: Bhishma (P. Lal)
"As God is my witness,
I would rather my body were robed in the same
burning blaze as my gold-giver's body
than go back home bearing arms.
That is unthinkable, unless we have first
slain the foe"
-Beowulf
“Even if it seems certain that you will lose, retaliate. Neither wisdom nor technique has a place in this. A real man does not think of victory or defeat. He plunges recklessly towards an irrational death. By doing this, you will awaken from your dreams.”
― Yamamoto Tsunetomo
Introducing: my body-mesh replacer. With this bad-boy engaged, all naked players will appear as those pictured above: unstoppable machines of war. If you play unarmored, you will obviously benefit, but I can assure the rest of you that you will encounter naked players, and with this installed, they will look awesome.
To install: (Filehosting service generously suggested by Leshma)https://mega.co.nz/#!kcVXEQBB!EzQ3dnXK_mNQ8U55EobET13mH3VOLXkMDDC9rHO6mnQSimply download, open your Warband folder, find the CommonRes folder and replace the body_meshes.brf file with the one I provided. This will replace not just CRPG's naked mesh, but the naked mesh for ALL OF YOUR MODS, so save the original .brf unless you want to re-install Warband just to get it, should you find the buffness displeasing. Oh, and be sure to check out the alternate version lower down in this post, in case it's more to your liking.
Note on quality: This mesh is far from perfect, and may never be perfect, though I intend to update it in the future. There is some clipping depending on what weapon you use, and the texture is having trouble covering the very front of either shoulder - a little stretching there, though it doesn't stand out unless you're looking for it. The poly-count is slightly higher than most plate armour, so anyone who has performance issues around lots of players in plate should experience similar here, but I really doubt it should be an issue. All the same, I hope you enjoy the fruits of my efforts. I know I do!
=============================================
Alternate version now available! In my quest for increasing barbarism, I added a war girdle and fur kilt to my model. Below you'll find some screenshots and the link to download. The facts and instructions are the same as the above version. Enjoy!
