Human Units Visible Upgrades

Description
This is my biggest mod so far, comparable to my Myth Unit Upgrade Pack. It modifies every human unit in the game so their appearance change according to which upgrades have been researched.

For example, the Hoplite:
- Copper Mail/Bronze Mail/Iron Mail change the armor.
- Medium Infantry/Heavy Infantry/Champion Infantry changes the helmet and the size of the shield.
- Copper Weapons/Bronze Weapons/Iron Weapons changes the spear's material.
- Copper shields/Bronze shields/Iron shields changes the shield's material.
- Aegis Shield replaces the shield with the legendary Aegis.
- Sarissa doubles the length of the spear.
- Phobos Spear of Panic adds a red vapor effect to the spear.

The following mods a included in this mod:
- General Visible Upgrades
- Militia Visible Upgrades
- Fanatic Visible Upgrades
- Myrmidon Visible Upgrades
- Hetairoi Visible Upgrades
- Gastraphetes Visible Upgrades
- Destroyer Visible Upgrades
- Proper Khopesh
- Skraeling revamp
- Heavy Chariots Wheel

I've been very busy lately, but I'll look into the ulfsark spear.

Shades only have a right hand attach point, so I could give them a weapon easily, but giving them a shield would require me to modify all of their animations to add more attach points, which is much more work than I can handle at the moment. I'll see what I can do.

Since Hades Shades benefit from armory upgrades, have you considered to make the weapon a visible upgrade? Maybe even adding a shield on the back and darkening the robe with mail upgrades?

Thank you, I love this mod and just want to see it at its full potential :D
Also it seems like the Ulfsark with the Swine Array upgrade have some broken materials for the spear? It appears black with the copper/bronze weapons upgrades afaik

You're right, the militia, slinger, and gastraphetes lack player colour for their death animations. It should be easy to fix, I'll try to update the mod the first chance I get.

The slinger (and I think poseidon militia too?) loses the team colour on his clothes on when he dies (tried with and without the mod, it only happens with the mod enabled). Long/No decay corpses mods make this even more noticeable.

I also think the super long spear could be a bit smaller tbh

I do not like the super long spear tbh. It also get's thicker and it gets super distracting.

I've added Enyo's Bow effect, Toxotes' bows will now grow red.
