Glad you managed to get it working, Big Jocker. Even though you cannot buy the base creature anymore, you should still be able to upgrade existing base creatures in the town with the upgraded structure.
I'm really hoping for a reply by Sfidanza about the possibility of replacing the regrade button with the upgrade button. If that is possible, then you can do this without losing the base creature and make it fit; in the current implementation where you lose the base creature, you have a gap between the first and the second upgrade in the creature purchase window.
(and to the rest of you guys: stop the off-topic spam!  ).

@BAD
I didn't get any IM from you here. And if I did I replayed to all of them.
@Maurice
When I said I figured it out, I meant that I even had a good button for upgrading. Just after the 2nd upgrade I got the reupgrade button , but it was red (and without the ability to reupgrade) so everything is good.(except for losing the the ability to buythe unupgraded creature)

I understand, it's the same result I had.
I just want to take it 1 step further and bring it inline with the rest of the game (i.e. no missing recruitments, or empty creature slots on the recruitment screen). Not that I would "force" you to take it over, it's just for my own satisfaction to know if it's possible  .

What exactly is so wrong with the name Seraph as an upgrade for Archangel? I didn't like the name either when it replaced the Fallen Angel, because they're supposed to be stronger than Archangels. This way it makes more sense. As for the whatnot with guarding the Gates of Eden... well, there is no Eden in Ashan so they have nothing to guard - might as well serve the Knights

Alright, alright, sorry. Here, I made a small mod getting rid of the red, demonic markings on the Centaur. You could probably use it for this classic Rampart town.

You are right and it looks gorgeous. 
EDIT: Updated stats of first two towns and added stats of Tower/Academy.

Try not to lose the texture of the Centaur. I think I'll use it later with your permission. But now I'm working on a Castle.
P.S.: I'm now searching for a stable team and testers. Who would like to join?

Don't worry, I'll hold on to it. If you want anything else made just let me know (preferably after tomorrow, I have exams).

Any specific colours in mind? Do you want to keep the Blue / White / Red theme, or something different? I can add some small details to make them look more Erathian like in Heroes III.

I would prefer such changes:
Brown Peasant
Black Brute
Black Crossbowman
Black Vindicator
White Inquisitor
Dark Red Zealot
White Cavalier
Less colorful (something more like Gold) Champion
Darker blue Angel
Light Blue Seraph with golden wings
I already made Peasant and Brute.
Is it possible to change Conscript's and Brute's weapons to more like H3 Pikeman's and Halberdier's?
And ofcourse you could make some small changes you mentioned

That's all possible and even pretty easy for me to do, I'll get going with it soon.
As for changing weapons around, I believe it's possible. You make the weapon transparent, and then add a different one in its place by taking a seperate model such as an artifact (or by making every part of another creature's model transparent except its weapon). You have to add it as an effect. I have never done this myself but I know it's possible... ask Kronos1000, he's great at that sort of thing.
I think we could even make a Naga like this by masking the upper half of the Fire Elemental and putting the Shadow Matriarch's upper body or something in its place...
Anyway that's all from me for today

The weapons are not the main thing. But it would be cool if I would be able to make some things transparent. And thanks for the help
EDIT: Here are the new looks for Castle's 2nd upgrades. (Battle griffin remains the same). Somehow JPG files looks bad, next time i'll try to make BMPs

Sorry...I just couldn't wait so long. Angel looks superb, just what I wanted. You can still work on Peasant,Inquisitor and Cavalier. I'll leave those for you.

Sure, I'll work on those. You have the Peasant done though, don't you?
EDIT: Here's your Inquisitor. The only problem is that my .dds converter removes the Alpha Channels in the image which make parts of the textures transparent. You can see the problem just there with the chain he's carrying: the shadows aren't transparent. But I'll send you the .bmp file which has the Alpha Channels present, so you can just convert it to .dds properly with Photoshop.

Yes. OK... And it looks good overall. And about peasant, I think I somehow deleted the texture I made..so you can work on it too.
EDIT: Here's the icons for the creatures I changed.

@ BIGJOKER
I would like a golden aura around the head of Archangel and Seraph.
This is just a request
