So, as you have seen, I've started making a new era mod based on the old republic game and triailers.
The basic side are done, the era has been added on almost every stock map, new unit classes, fixed some bugs and improved other things.
Overview of basic units
Rifleman:
-Blaster Rifle (slightly more powerful than the stock one)
-Blaster Pistol (damage increased)
--Thermal Det (explosion does more damage + powerful push)
Rocketeer:
-RocketLauncher (faster missile, explosion does more damage + powerful push)
-Light Blaster Rifle (shoots faster, less damage and less precise than the blaster rifle)
--Mines
--Detpacks
Sniper:
-Sniper Rifle (Very powerful: with a single shot it can kill almost all units)
-Blaster Pistol
--Thermal Det
\\--Auto Turret *want to change this*
Combat Engineer [REP]:
-Blaster Shotgun (shoots faster than stock..a lot, damage is stock)
-Fusion Cutter
--Thermal Det
--Deployable E-Web
Combat Engineer [EMP]:
-Mortar Launcher (has the same explosion of the thermal det)
-Blaster Pistol
-Fusion Cutter
--Thermal Det
--Deployable E-Web
Medical Support:
-Light Blaster Rifle [REP] -ARC Caster [EMP]
-Blaster Pistol
--Health Regeneration Buff
--Health\Ammo Dispenser
Those are the basic classes that are the same for both the old republic and the sith empire.
The units visuals change from planet to planet.
For example the republic heavytrooper showed on the pic is for snow planets like hoth, on corusant he has a different look, that's what I mean.
Overview of special units:
Republic Trooper Gunner:
-Chaingun
-Blaster Pistol
--Chaingun's grenade attachment
--Rally (defense buff)
Ice Trooper:
-Ice Thrower (new weapon made by Dakota with a modified effect, basicly act like a flamethrower but shoots ice)
-Blaster Pistol
--Thermal Det
Sith Warrior:
-Lightsaber
--Force Choke
Sith War Droid Mark I
-Repeater Blaster
(scaled up and reskinned droideka without shield but with 1550 health; take out those very fast with the chaingun)
I will continue the overview of the special units later, I will show you the empire bounty hunters and other special units of the republic (like the vanguard and the commanders).
Also if anyone wants to make a map for this era mod or wants this era for an already made map I will be glad to add it.
suggestions are always welcome.

The units look extremely high quality model and skin-wise.
But will the Chiss units on the imp side get big red eyes after all?
Can't wait to see more, 'till now it looks and sounds excellent Delta!

Isn't that completely off-topic? We are talking about a mod not the actual game.

Everything looks great, although I get a little nervous when I see all of the stats about increased damage. I mean, what's the point in being an accurate sniper if you can take anyone down with a shot to the arm?

I understand your point Eggman, but I don't like that a sniper can not kill anyone without 2 shoots or an headshoot.
Continuing the special unit overview..
One of the most strong and elite troopers of the republic: the Republic Vanguard.
*you need 16 points to unlock*
-Heavy blaster rifle (shoots slowly than the other rifles but does more damage)
-Heavy blaster rifle - rocket launcher attachment
--Personal Shield
--Mines
here you have a video of the vanguard in-game

Also with the help of THEWULFMAN, I got the Sith War Droid look better that before:

I'm still trying to figure out what model you used for that Sith Trooper, he looks
exactly like the one in the trailers and etc. Great job, as I've said before.
Couple nitpicks:
Ice Thrower
-How about a name with a better ring to it? Like "CryoBan Projector" or something of the sort.
-Maybe it's just me, but I simply cannot pretend that the Sith sniper droid is not a Magnaguard, isn't there some other droid model that could be used for that role?

Stormtrooper + darktrooper backpack.

Will change that too, maybe to the HK-47 with new skin, we'll see.

Looks nice Delta

Just a question but in the video with the Vanguard you never used your mines and I know from personal experence that when I give a unit the droideka's sheild and another secondary weapon that when I use the weapon ie mines it activates or deactivates the sheild, I am wondering if you found a fix to that?

your skins are awesome,but when i see the republic gunner,the republic vanguard,the sith sniper and the sith sniper and war droid i still see a clone trooper,a clone commando,a magnaguard and a droideka.
you should also work in the republic snow troper skin.
anyway your mod is AWESOME!

Those are not his fault, the guys at Bioware made those lazy design choices, Delta is only doing his part and replicating the look of their models. There's nothing that can be done about them.

i know,but he could left the original gunman skin,and for the vanguard he could rub out the vertical part of the helmet's glass and left just the horizontal part.
