Name of UT Skin: "JW Elite Guard"

Model used: Male Soldier

Team Colors: 4        Faces: 6

Author(s): This skin was repainted somewhat by K_St_theJunior, using mostly a lot of the UT game's original skin textures (made by Shane Caudle and other UT designers), in order to create the effect of a black African soldier. It was originally intended just for family use in LAN games and bot-matches, but is now shared with the UT fan community in the thought that it can be useful for multi-player online battles.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION (please read!):

"Elite Guard" and "Jungle Hero" are meant to be used with mutators! Here's how we do it, and how you can too:

I have the WORM mutator already set up (with swords, phasors, crossbows, and MonsterMadness) for use with the great hero EarthWarrior and all the rest of my "Colorful Warriors" set of skins. So I also have a different mutator called "Stuffswapper" simultaneously set up for use with "Jungle Hero" and the Jungle Warriors set of skins. I have Stuffswapper set to replace the weapons in maps primarily with the "Compound Bow" of Unreal4Ever mod, but I also allow a few "Rambo Knife" weapons, an occasional ChaosUT sword or two, maybe a rifle or two, and maybe a crossbow or two. I have Stuffswapper set to replace the ammunition pick-ups in all maps, transforming them mostly into Arrows (also Fire Arrows, Dynamite Arrows, Plasma Arrows, and Poison Arrows) for the Compound Bow that "Jungle Hero" carries with him every time he's out in public. Needless to say, most of the bots are carrying the same powerful Compound Bow. Then when choosing a map, we just activate whichever mutator we need at the moment: either WORM for the "Colorful Warriors" skin-characters, or Stuffswapper for the "Jungle Warriors" set of skins. 

"Elite Guard" is one of a new series of skins I've started. I've already produced a "Jungle Hero" skin (for the Commando model), a "Tribe1 Male," and a "Tribe2 Male." Elite Guard is a character that can appropriately be given more use of UT's bullet-firing weapons when he is battling beside or against "Jungle Hero." This can be set up in the Stuffswapper selection-window, and in the UT bot-window's "Favorite Weapon" drop-down list.

Some other skins should be joining them in this set before too long. I plan to make a black female tribesperson skin for the Abbey and Conni models soon, as well as a gorilla-warrior. I think I'll have to call that last one "Gorilla Warrior!" (What else?)

The "Elite Guard" can battle beside or against human players and bots in some fun flashbacks to the days of the prototype Jungle Warriors.

"Elite Guard" is part of my "Jungle Warriors" set, so you will find it listed in UT under the Male Soldier selection-list as "JW Elite Guard." 


TO INSTALL:

Unzip. Copy the .int file to your UT game's "System" sub-folder, and the .utx file to the "Textures" sub-folder. Make the appropriate entry in your UnrealTournament.ini start-up file in order to use the skin for multi-player games ("ServerPackages=SoldierSkinsBG1a" should be added under the "[Engine.GameEngine]" heading).
