    Gordon it was on the 4th of April update.

    Are you implying you're a slow reader?

    :D

    And I MIGHT redo that Humber.

    At least there wasn't any doubt that it was Green AND Black.</font>

    YK2,

    No, I was not referring to the quality of your modding, which, I believe has far surpased PawBroon's quality at a similar stage of development (as evidence I would like to present exhibit 'A', PawBroon's Humber Scout car mod) or my early King Tiger for that matter. smile.gif You know, the one that nobody can seem to agree on what colors it is. :D

    However, everyone is, I'm sure, familiar with the saying "Hell hath no fury ..." I know that it's time to walk away from the computer and pay closer atttention to my wife whenever she pays particular attention to the cutlery during meals.

    I do hope that PawBroon intended the "Stakhanovist" comment in the positive sense, rather than in the shoddy workmanship sense. :rolleyes:

    For my part I'm happy you'll host my versions, I had the K-Wagons and German HTs (but I'm sure those have been redone).

    Just tell me where to upload/send ! ;)

    Pascal,

    I believe everything was merged into the "official" RuleSets. I probably have the mods stashed on my computer somewhere, so if you could e-mail me (gordonemolek@earthlink.net) the file names, we might save at least one transit of my painfully slow dial-up connection.

    The top row of buttons in the Allied Winter Vehicles RuleSet applies the chosen option to ALL allied winter vehicles that have the appropriate mods installed. I didn't think it made sense to have some of your vehicles snow-covered and some whitewashed. There is a Churchill-specific Icon to allow selection of the various different Marks of Churchills that are available.

    Pascal and Clubfoot,

    IIRC, another member of the CMMOS Cabal made the new German Vehicles & Guns/Winter German Vehicles & Guns Rules to pull in all of the (at that time) Pz IV, Pz V, and your kubelwagen collection mods that were out there. I'm sure we can find space on CM:HQ to host the mod collections as long as y'all agree.

    John Tucker was posting his mods somewhere (I don't recall off the top of my head).

    CMMOS problem - sdkfz 250/251s

    in Combat Mission Archive #4 (2002)

    Posted

    Apache,

    You may have been using the old batch versions of the BMPs with the "unofficial" RuleSets that have now been imported into the "official" RuleSets that will be part of CMMOS v3.02. You'll need to make sure that you have the appropriate CMMOS mods installed for the halftracks or you'll still have the same sort of problems. CMMOS v3.02 should be released any day now, so you might want to sit tight.

    Cyberized,

    All BMPs must be installed (either manually or by CM Mod Manager) into the CM:BO BMP folder, and not in any sub-folders or elsewhere. If you send me (gordonemolek@earthlink.net) a copy of CMMOSLog.txt from the CMMOS install folder, I'll diagnose the problem for you.

    Took me ages to fix the litlle bits I've tinkered with to get it the way I liked. All fixed now (I think) EXCEPT when I use CMMOS to switch between textures on the above it does it OK except for the front and rear end of the vehicles :mad: To be able to switch textures on those I have to go to the batch files (which luckily I kept) and do them all manually. Something must have gone wrong when I re-installed the BMPs I suspect.

    I have installed the high/lo res patches again (last on the mod manager list) and suspect it might be something to do with a rule set that I've got corrupted. Any pointers??? :confused:

    I think the application is excellent and it WAS working fine. Not sure whether it's better to do a re-install of CMMOS or what? It's almost as if its missing out bits of what it's supposed to do. Maybe this is responsible for my odly coloured arms on GJs too?

    Apache,

    The 250/251 problem is most likely that the CMMOS version of those mods isn't installed (Fernando originally released those mods as a batch file version, and you've probably got that installed).

    Run CMMOS, e-mail a copy of the file CMMOSLog.txt to me (gordonemolek@earthlink.net) and we'll get you straightened out. As there's no Allied uniform RuleSet yet, your GI arm problem is due to the order that mods are listed in CM Mod Manager.

    CMMOS v3.01 was a feature/bug fix update. The latest version (v3.02) is just finishing beta test and should be posted soon. Among other cool features it adds sound mod support and reorganizes the packaging to make future updates to the RuleSets easier to apply.

    Help needed for new King Tiger mod

    Perhaps I'm getting a bit too "armor grog" for you here.

    MikeyD,

    The mono-color KT will be available in both zimmerit and non-zimmerit versions with a variety of tactical and unit markings. There will be a snow-covered and whitewashed version. I'll be doing a re-make of my s.Pz.Abt. 503 "striped" mod and there will be "guest" modders who will be doing the bi-color, tri-color and ambush versions.

    bfamily33,

    (groan) :rolleyes:

    Mattias, thanks.

    bfamily33 - Yes, along with whitewashed and snow-covered versions, and there will even be some "guest" painters. smile.gif

    panzerwerfer42 - Yes, not historical, but I can understand why some would want it, so I'll probably end up doing a "hasty" anyway.

    PawBroon - Now that's a threat that's hard to ignore.

    Anyone else out there with any markings information?

    Thanks,

    Gordon

    Grogs, frogs, ladies and gentlemen,

    You may have seen a picture of this new King Tiger mod I'm working on KingTigerZimm.jpg

    Image courtesy of MODs & MODers

    I'm looking for information on the markings that appeared on the KTs of the various Schwere Panzer Abteilung (Abteilungen? smile.gif ) that fought in the West. I've got a fair representation of the different styles of tactical numbers, and have examples of the unit symbols, but almost no examples showing those unit symbols being actually used on the vehicles. So, any corroboration one way or the other would be appreciated.

    Feel free to e-mail me at "gordonemolek@earthlink.net" or respond in this thread.

    Thanks,

    Gordon

    Andrew,

    The multi-vehicle Icons in the "Commonwealth Vehicles" RuleSet (e.g. 11th Arm.Div., 4th Arm.Bde., Guards Arm.Div., Polish Army), and the "Winter Allied Vehicles" RuleSet (e.g. whitewashed, snow-covered, etc.) will swap between the "standard" formations as long as the files are named properly. Creating Cromwell-specific Icons is easily done once you finalize your plans. Are you planning on doing Mark-specific versions a la Marco's Shermans or Feldgrau's Churchills?

    What's the ETA on the H39 mod?

    I'm definitely looking forward to that.

    Quite frankly, no idea.

    It's MODed by one of those French.

    You know them fickle Frogs...

    :D

    Seriously, it's supposed to have been done by a John Doe then mailed to Franck Lazzaroni (another French MODer) and then forwarded to Saturnin who mailed it to me.

    Does that make sense?

    My guess is that Franck is indeed the culprit.

    He just wouldn't say so and I'm not even sure they'll release the bloody MOD.

    God knows I've asked for the BMPs for some time now under the pretence of doing screenies.

    What's ailing the Frogs is beyond me really.

    Why do a MOD if not to release it?

    And it's obvious this one is the best H39 to date...

    Strange.

    Bloody French.

    Must be cultural or there's something in their tap water...

    :D </font>
