Battlefront.com Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 As you can see from my editing of posts, I don't want to go down the route of people trying to one up each other with T&A pictures.

eniced73 Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Very nice! I really like those snow effects on the uni's and boots. Good job there.   ...and you gotta know when I talk about the real pro's and umlaut in the same sentence it is kind of a joke, because if he is an amateur pro, then the real pro's, ok, the "real pro's" better knock our socks off!  0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t34577685 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Â wow! great work! I like the bag on US soldier's back. I used to put CMBN MDS file into CMFI. But the back-bag doesn't appear. How did you make it?amazing! Â 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kohlenklau Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 This is a fairly old screenshot and I actually just remembered the background when you mentioned the backpack. After a few of us did the CMFI GL Bulge 44 mod, I ventured into doing a CMBN MG Bulge 44 mod project. I cannot really remember why I wanted to do the project and I also cannot remember why it died. Â But since it is CMBN, then that is why you see the backpack. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the file is hiden ,and we will never find it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 There is plenty that could be shown to you if the powers-that-be was of a mind to show you. But this being Beta work that means there's always going to be something in the screenshot that's not final product. And there's a natural tendency to want to put the best face on the new product for public consumption. Limiting early Beta screenshots means not having to continually explain that - no, those aren't the final uniforms or no, those aren't the final road signs. I recently mentioned to someone that I've been waiting for five years for the opportunity to finally do 'late war' German armor camou and I've been taking full advantage of the opportunity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 There is plenty that could be shown to you Not to mension the reaction to the first batch of previews triggered a rather negative discussion. I'm not sure how much of a factor that might be but I know I'm not motivated to discuss the buldge title here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kohlenklau Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 No problem at all fellas. We'll stay out of the kitchen Mom! Serve it up when it is done and ready.

kohlenklau Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) This is just my tiny test map with all possible paved road tiles to quickly examine the progress (or lack of) as I struggle to do the mod.  I hope this is already being done by someone working on Bulge. I think it would be a nice addition. As a paved road 1* [snow]  type internal modtag series.  I am a bit surprised it didn't get done for CMFI GL. Maybe it will get done for the next CMFI module?  Italy has that ugly yellowish paved roads but Belgium would I think have the grey asphalt like Holland.  So I am sliding in the grey here for this mod and then laying on the snow with a layer mask with tire marks.  I am struggling with the exact match of the tiremarks between the sections. It has to be exactly symmetrical because several files flip directions to save on bmp storage.  Then I gotta make sure the opacity is the same so the tone is perfectly matched to avoid the mismatch.  I need to know how to save an entire layer effect or just swap out the base original tile but then its alpha goes with it....Ugggh!  Then the turns have to have curved tire marks in various arc shapes that also line up nicely with any straight sections. And the 45 degree dealies. Jeez Malone!  Easier said than done...  Edited July 8, 2015 by kohlenklau 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kohlenklau Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 solved a weird edge. It was due to mud tile under road. changed to dirt tile and that went away. I think I have my layer masks figured out too... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kohlenklau Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 Hi Gary, Â Yeah. I dropboxxed everything to myself at work. I will mess with it today...strictly on my lunch hour of course! Â I want to add in some slightly wavy tire marks also, guys coming back off a 3-day pass to Paris. Â I also will swipe a few from the railroad tracks set so we have one of the long straight road tiles can show some diagonal; marks where someone passed over the road at a semi-perpendicular. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruce90 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Great screenies kohlenklau. My son bought me ' Ardennes 1944. Hitlers last gamble' by Antony Beevor for Fathers Day. He keeps asking me if it's any good but I'm saving it for the Bulge game. I'm sure he thinks I don't want to read it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruce90 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Hey Bruce Is that an Osprey campaign book? No kohlenkau. Beevor is an English author who writes some great stuff. I've got books by him on Stalingrad, Berlin and D Day. Â http://www.antonybeevor.com/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sublime Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Beevors excellent for less hardcore grogs but good also for grogs especially in covering the human side of conflicts. I look at him almost as a present day Cornelius Ryan in style. Thank god the Ambrose rage is over with. i couldnt stand his books which hardly if ever gave even grudging respect to Wehrmacht soldiers, and was basically USA USA WE WON THE WAR USA USA. Plus i feel its been proven he lied about a historical incident on DDay. He lied about that what else did he lie about? Or make up? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
