About this mod

Character overhaul that aims to breath new life into all the factions in BF1, and to make it more authentic. This mod doesn't aim to make each faction 100% accurate, but instead aims to make each faction as authentic as possible while balancing modding limitations and class/faction distinction.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
This mod focuses on making all the factions as authentic as possible while balancing proper class differentiation. the late war portion of WW1 was the theme used for the faction overhauls on base maps. While DLC maps like Achi Baba, will keep its early war feel. Ultimately, this mod aims to make Battlefield 1, that much more authentic while breathing new life into the game. 

Many texture edits were used from the Battlefield 1 Character Rework mod, which was made by "PotatoChip_28", "HauptmannHK", "Trek" and "Madicode". Here is their mod.

Some model and texture edits were from Utasha/Marlo who has made various mods.

Most model and texture edits were also created by "HarlowLovesGaming/Jay Fuzz", who created Battlefield 1914, which you can find their mod here. Also, he made 1916 - Enhanced Multiplayer as well, which you can find here.

Inspiration and the project file for the older versions of this mod was gained by "Nutthutt", who also created their own mod.


All overhauls in this mod are within the engine limits so do not fear being banned as no gameplay advantaged is gained.

CREDITS LIST FOR MODELS AND TEXTURES

-"PotatoChip_28", "HauptmannHK", "Trek" and "Madicode" made many custom uniform/gear textures, such as the various German gear retextures, Royal Marines uniform retextures, Early War British/ANZAC/New Zealand retextures, and more, which were then modified by me.

-PotatoChip_28 made the custom British support brodie/backgear/gas mask bag, US Bar support pouches, US Scout gear, US canteen and pistol holster, German assault pack, German helmet cloth cover, and Royal Marine Assault backpack and many others.

-Utasha/Marlo, created many of the new face textures used, and created various gear models like the new Italian support backpack and Imperial Russian assault axe.

And he made the custom canteen and bayonet models for the Austro-Hungarians and Italians. Not to mention he worked on overall improving US, Austro-Hungarian, German, and French class gear. Which now have proper physics as well! Also created proper 1P models for the Germans, Austro-Hungarians, US, Ottomans, and Italians. Also he allowed me to build BF1918 off of his project file for 1916 - Enhanced Multiplayer, which helped make this mod better, so huge props to him for that.
