[Help] Request instruction on death avatar visual change mod.

I'm not satisfied playing the ToE campaign with the Death Avatar looking exactly like a Spectral Dragon.  There doesn't seem to be a visual mod for this unit...  What tools do I need to do a simple visual change, such as a color change?

Seems it's more productive to do things oneself; I've already fixed the bugs of the Death Knights mod myself (still testing to make sure).

You could change the colour of the Avatar of Death, but keep in mind that it would also affect Spectral Dragons since they are in essence the same creature.  The Avatar works on the very same files as the Spectral.  Long story short, unless you want to try and perform an advanced mod on the game to add all-new creatures (which requires hex editing and a modified .exe file), forget it.

There's unused Black Knight in game files which can have, if modded, recoloured Spectral Dragon apperance - so it can be base creature also.

Oh can't do that; I'm using Death Knights mod.

But is it possible to use the Yeti file?

What graphics tools do I need to make a simple color change?

Yeti also works, I think you can best use the Paokai's model and recolour to make it look undead, because in Dark Messiah the avatar was also an undead Paokai.

I'd advise Photoshop/Gimp, DDScv, winrar.
