Thanks for the compliments Rev Black All the "pats on the back" keep me going Update Yeap I'm beavering away on new buildings! Thanks to STephan Galambos for providing me with tons of European reference material, I'll have a batch of new authentic, French, Belgium and German buildings. Well whatever I can fit into the Beta demo Also I just noticed the doors and windows I've done so far are too big! SO I've spent all day today, doing a reference building so the doors and windows sizes are correct to a standing infantry model. That will make it much easier for me to get future buildings in proper proportion ANyway I have one newer pic in my CM Photo Gallery. It shows a gorgeous Reisberg shot - minor enhancements to wheatfield, and newer roof tile texture. ------------------ CCJ aka BLITZ_Force My Hompage ----> http://www.geocities.com/coolcolj Double your immersion with my Tweaked Textures and Saving Private Ryan sound set mods for CM!!

Sorry guys I've just retweaked that BAR sound to make it louder, and make it fit in with the rest of the sounds tonality wise. I just re uploaded thanks ------------------ CCJ aka BLITZ_Force My Hompage ----> http://www.geocities.com/coolcolj Double your immersion with my Tweaked Textures and Saving Private Ryan sound set mods for CM!!

Yeah me too - I get Ole errors or something ccj

Ok the sound is up in my Cm goodies, Tweaked Audio page Have a listen - I make no claims on authenticity But it sounds nice anyway ------------------ CCJ aka BLITZ_Force My Hompage ----> http://www.geocities.com/coolcolj Double your immersion with my Tweaked Textures and Saving Private Ryan sound set mods for CM!!

A lot slower than the Ripping sound of a MG42 ccj

Dang you beat me to it! No mean achievement since most of the posts are from me anyway ColJ ccj

If anyone was disappointed in the BAR sound (00000435.wav) in my Saving private Ryan sound pack mod, I have found a another BAR sound on my HD It sounds a lot beefier, and lot more like an automatic weapon I'll have it up on my site later today ------------------ CCJ aka BLITZ_Force My Hompage ----> http://www.geocities.com/coolcolj Double your immersion with my Tweaked Textures and Saving Private Ryan sound set mods for CM!!

No need to worry people CCJs Tweaked Tetxures v2.0 will work with the Gold version - unless Charles has implemented a Pak/encyprted file scheme All BTS have done is increase the texture sizes of certain tetxures in the newer builds. Because its D3D, you can use any texture size you want, mix and match - it all works ok! That's why the newer building look sharper - larger textures = sharper more detailed and realistic textures But its a different thing with the Mac version of course ------------------ CCJ aka BLITZ_Force My Hompage ----> http://www.geocities.com/coolcolj Double your immersion with my Tweaked Textures and Saving Private Ryan sound set mods for CM!!

Its not finished yet, I'm waiting to get a graphic tablet to finish off the fine details. I'm doing it at 1200x960 so I'll have a few different sizes available. I might use this as the title page pic for Tweaked Textures v2.0 ------------------ CCJ aka BLITZ_Force My Hompage ----> http://www.geocities.com/coolcolj Double your immersion with my Tweaked Textures and Saving Private Ryan sound set mods for CM!!

Oh! Awesome Dang that pic looks good It looked a bit like you I thought, from that previous pic you had there ccj

hey thanks Do you need a larger size - I can scale it up to 1200x900, but its basicly a magnified version. I'll have it at my site in 15 mins I knew I should have put a CM Tweaked Textures v2.0 logo on there somewhere - I'll get around to that soon Hey - I love your B/W German uniformed pic - do you re-enact? ------------------ CCJ aka BLITZ_Force My Hompage ----> http://www.geocities.com/coolcolj Double your immersion with my Tweaked Textures and Saving Private Ryan sound set mods for CM!!

I thought the flags were a bit unrealistic - I've redone and they look much much better! I have left one of the old ones, so you can compare - they new one looks real! head to my Cm photo gallery to check it out ------------------ CCJ aka BLITZ_Force My Hompage ----> http://www.geocities.com/coolcolj Double your immersion with my Tweaked Textures and Saving Private Ryan sound set mods for CM!!

Thomm, I know my house has some pretty long beams, in the roof structure, supporting the tiles. But I can see that they would be a bit shorter than they are depicted in the texture I'll change this, plus I think I'll add more debris to the rubble texture. But I wanna go finish the trees first and come back to this. Gaffertape (now that's a very Aussie nick ) what do you do for a living with Photoshop? I've been using PhotoSHop for a month now. I must admit Photoshop really annoys me in some areas, I guess the Mac upbringing does that Previously I have been using Paint SHop Pro, and this is much easier and quicker to use. Yes this is the first time I've done any textures. ANd I like doing it Its got me thinking of a career change. A friend codes for Tantulus (makers of South Park Rally!)and a position for a 2d Texture artist/Story boarder has been made vacant - so I'll try and apply for it All these CM textures will no doubt help flesh out my resume, and a few Quake skins wouldn't hurt. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, so I like getting into the fine details Your right regarding the "open forum" of graphics and other things. I mean the game player is the one that will be paying for the game and looking at the graphics at his expense, so its in the comapnies best interest to make the grahics look good to the target consumer. On the down side, you do lose some of the surprise element CCJ

I do recall seeing my Tigers gun "jam" ? Maybe I can't remeber too well, but I thought something like that happened a few weeks ago. ------------------ CCJ aka BLITZ_Force My Hompage ----> http://www.geocities.com/coolcolj Double your immersion with my Tweaked Textures and Saving Private Ryan sound set mods for CM!!

Yeap that is one thing that annoys me about the Tac AI I was playing CE as Germans, I had STug stationary behind the ridge. I ordered another STug to advance to the road. Its path happened to cross the stationary Stug. Now in real life the moving STug would have seen the other STug, and swerved around it and continue onto its merry way. But no, in the Cm beta demo, this unit, runs into it, reverses, then trys to go around, gets jammed again, reverses and then finally gets it right SHades of Close Combat tank behaviour ------------------ CCJ aka BLITZ_Force My Hompage ----> http://www.geocities.com/coolcolj Double your immersion with my Tweaked Textures and Saving Private Ryan sound set mods for CM!!

Yeap the first time I played CE - I was very cocky as the US, took out all the STugs, and was feeling very good! But I forgot how many schrecks and panzerfaust the Germans had and got ambushed by his advancing infantry There was even one situation where, the AI charged his Infantry within 50 m of my SHermans, and then let loose with the "rockects" Ouch! ------------------ CCJ aka BLITZ_Force My Hompage ----> http://www.geocities.com/coolcolj Double your immersion with my Tweaked Textures and Saving Private Ryan sound set mods for CM!!

I'm at two minds here - I have to agree with Eridani, when I see the CCJ_River4.jpg, I know its a river - even though its not as realistic, but for game applications, it works well. I could darker still, I have plenty of river pics now, and some are almost black, but the thing I notice is, they all have reflections! THat is something I can't even begin to emulate in CM, due to the tiles system If it were a static set river, then I could give it a shot. But with tiles, they will be rearranged per map, and the drawn in reflections will sure look weird But I'll see.... Lt.Bull I'm glad you like the wallpaper, I'll have some more soon I recommend getting Webshots( http://www.webshots.com ) to display them, awesome wallapaper utility! One you have a few Cm wallappers, it can do funky things like cycling them every 5 mins or whatever, plus webshots has a huge library of backdrop pics, but being a ww2 freak, I'll soon be doing some colourised WW2 photo wallpaper! Ps - I have some new pics that might surprise you people Head to my gallery! ------------------ CCJ aka BLITZ_Force My Hompage ----> http://www.geocities.com/coolcolj Double your immersion with my Tweaked Textures and Saving Private Ryan sound set mods for CM!!
