@Reiter What exact modes do You use and did You maked any modifications?

Thanks for posting. Infantry in the open gets quite attention in the screenshoots thread :)

I use the "full" version of your mod. I think some of the special effects are stacked up in negative way, so all effects may not work properly. I use all graphics mods available, all maxed out but AA is off because it takes your computer somewhat on their knees, how good hardware you have. I dont know did I answer your question correctly.

 

Edit.

I use War Movie ADVANCED Enhancement MegaPack For CM Black Sea. Do I have to modify anything before playing? Just got that in mind...

@Reiter I guess it’s time for monthly mods - z folder cleanup :) I'm finding that I have, even myself made, tons of mods duplicated and conflicting each other. There are many things that can conflict each other, and totaly change the look of the game (terrain, sky, clouds etc).

You need 2 mods

1. War movie ADVANCED for CMBS: http://cmmodsiii.greenasjade.net/?p=2691&

+ 2. War movie ADVANCED Enhancement MegaPack for CMBS: http://cmmodsiii.greenasjade.net/?p=2714

But first remove all other mods, then install those 2. You will hopefully get something like this.

3_Combat_Mission_Black_Sea_War_Movie_ADVANCED_enhancement_pack_by-BarbaricCo

Then add other mods one by one and see what You will get. You can then tweak shaders to suit Your own preference. But anyway great video!

Downloaded and installed your War Movie and MegaPack mods a few days ago. It;s now on all the time when I play CMBS! Thank you BarbaricCo!

I'm glad that you are enjoying it :). Also one screenshot with PC spec would be nice if you have time (just curious to see how it looks on different machines).

Thanks

I think I have a problem here.  I d/l your mods and extracted them to a folder, but the enhancement megapack is 93.7MB zipped, but only 8.57MB unzipped.  Where did it go?  Is this something to do with the file names again?  Was this file name issue in a Win 7 update or something?  I never had this issue until a few months ago.  Even when I go to put a folder into the recycle bin I get a warning that the file names are too long.  I tried the so-called file name length 'fix' at the MS site, but it says it's not compatible with my computer?!  I'd try to shorten them manually, but with CM mods it usually gives over 100 instances of the issue, which is an awful lot of manual fixing.

EDIT:  It is the filename issue.  I shortened the zip file name and now it extracts to 191MB.  Is that the correct size?  I also went in and shortened all of the long folder names to be sure that I get all the files when putting them into the MOD directory. 

Also, it can just go into the Documents/Battlefront/CMBS/UserData/MODS directory can't it (i.e. no need to create a 'z' directory)?

Can you try above link with short file names if you have problems with unzip. 

It can go to mods folder but it's best if it's in z folder and loads last

Yes, that seems to work now (191MB as well).  I pasted it into the folder too and it worked (no filename warning).  MOD makers need to be aware of this as I had no idea the file had shrunk so much.  It will probably save them some hassle troubleshooting issues.  I just wanted to see how compressed it was (I keep the zip or the uncompressed, not both...I'm anal that way;)) so I checked it.  There was no warning for it (when you unzip it). 

So, if I add a Z folder (in addition to the mods folder), the z folder will load faster?

Not faster but it loads last. For example if you have 2 same horizon textures in z or mods folder, one that's alphabetically in subfolder with higher letter will load, other will not.

"aHorizons" folder in mods folder

"zHorizons" folder in mods folder 

CM will load files from zHorizons folder.

I cant get this mod to work. All it does for me is turn day time into night. Tried all different combos of shaders off, night time mode, and alt-M but nothing. All mods cleared out of the z folder.

Maybe graphic card problem?

Maybe You could You try to "untag" few snowy terrain textures to see if it's working without "tagging".
