Redwolf you may have just correctly answered the question. I had thought they only had 1 smg. Two would certainly make a difference. I will have to do some research and get back but not being anything but a poor debater and having no experience in tabulating info it may not prove anything but at least might satisfy myself.

I realize that the German HQ unit has a SMG and that would certainly be of some value close up but I seem to always see them off by themselves and at good distance and still bring major whip ass on my full squad. I really think they are over modelled. Yes I have always noticed and still do that they love taking on tanks all by themselves and normally can knock it out. Now this I feel is not realistic at all. Maybe once in a blue moon but certainly nothing like it goes on in the game. I really feel that a full squad with M1 semi-auto rifles plus 1 or 2 Thompson's would pervail over one smg and 3 bolt action rifles. I may even have to modify thier ammo amount to get them to behave more like 4 guys then a full 10 or 12 squad.

Say Andrew I have a question for you if you don't mind? It seems the SS uniforms are the one's that got the fancy looking uniforms never reg army. All I see for the reg troops are gray or some plain looking colors. Didn't they have anything neat like the SS? I'm thinking I'll be using the above uniform for SS and would like to see something that stands out in the game as well for the reg soldiers. Any hope of doing one in the future? Just asking.

I have been playing this game for over a year and it's the best but I have always from day one been disappointed, upset and sometimes discussed by how hard it is to kill these units. I mean they are only what 4 men. And they don't have laser blasters or anything but still seem to be able to wipe out or at least win over my platoon of 12 men. I just feel they are way over modelled in that regard. Anybody else feel this way or is it just my military memory of what these units really are capable of. Not having been an officer myself I just don't remember them being this bad, meaning tough. Any comments or advise to show me how wrong I am would be helpful as it really really bugs me.

What am I doing wrong? I have on many occasions set up an ambush marker just to have a tank or vehcile drive right over it without the tank that had the marker even fire. Is that common? Am I doing something wrong? I mean it seems rather simple but doesn't seem to be reliable. Any remarks?

If I am not mistaken there are certain mods in Madpacks 1 that aren't available from 3rd party sources. Like the Jagtiger for one. I think several or at least a few more. Now saying that if those few don't bother you then it's just a matter of d/l everything else you want and that's strictly personal taste so nobody can really help you there. It takes time due to the large amount of excellent mods out there and they are all over the place so I recommend finding the recent post from Wolfe ( last couple of days ) where he so kindly took the time to list them. You should be able to locate everything you need or want then. Now my understanding about CMMO which I don't use or have so am no expect on it but it seems that's the way to go but I myself am waiting for the newer version I believe called 3.02 which will be improved somehow over the previous CMMO. I again believe it's supposed to be out soon maybe this weekend but I could be wrong. Anyway, that's about all I can help you with but do want to say I - have fun. I myself probably enjoy trying the different mods out in the game as much as playing the game but I'm a real mod sucker.

See I knew I could get it just had to have an understanding & patience individual spell it out for me. Again thanks Captain Wacky. You're a nice guy!

OK thanks Captain Wacky. Got it. It's a preview site. Now where can I get some of the new mods that are done or do we have to wait until a site declares them?

OK, Ted I give up. How and where do you download the new mods at mod & modders site? I know I'm missing something but don't get it. Any explanation would be appreciated.

I also noticed the dark areas around the shoulders and upper legs just right below the shirt but didn't want to nic pick although I guess that's the reason Andrew asked our opinions. So yeah it would improve the overall look if these areas were lightened. There I finally said something negative about a mod but only out of love.

Happens all the time to me but I play only the American's which everybody knows how crappy thier machineguns were compared to the German's. Glad to hear it happens to the German's too. However, I feel for you.

Least everybody not get to see this post.

I really really like it. Now that'll stand out in the game. Excellent job again Andrew. I do like the open collar myself it just makes it so much more realistic looking. Love the belt buckle too. Thank you again Andrew. Never get tired of excellent mods. You guys really help keep the interest up in the game.

That would be great to have less noise in the background sure hope you do it SwedishPSK. Please let us know if and when. You would extremely liked ( not that you aren't now ) around this board if you can help along these lines. Good Luck!!!!!!!!

I do not have my Allied guns dressed up for Winter myself - yet. I actually am in the process of redoing all my mods and haven't gotten around to them yet but believe I have most everything else. You stated that the Pack did not cover all the Allied guns? I thought it did. If not I'll have to look around myself when ready to get them. Maybe somebody else will answer and let us both know where we can find the rest.

Hey Tanks I just had to get back with you on this new grass mod. I d/l it and it is outstanding looking. Not only does the ground look more real like you said but the different elevations are extremely noticable. I highly recommend it. Oh yes it goes very well with your tree bases also by the way, but then you probably knew that, didn't you? Excellent job - again.

Volker go back to Combat Mission HQ and look under the Winter Vehicles again and find the Winter Allied Vehicle Pack by Michael Albert. There you'll find the guns you are looking for at least.

All right! I was sure hoping you'd get this one out. I actually was bummed last night having to play a game without it after seeing it the other day. Again, looks extremely real with it being raised up like that and all. Cool idea. Now let me go get it and play a game. Thanks Tanks.

Wolfe, you are an OK guy. Damn nice of you to go to the trouble of doing this. I was actually just thinking about how to go about locating the different sites and here you come along and do this. What a guy. I for one thank you greatly. My hats off to you my friend.

Yeah thanks for the picture PawBroon & Saturnin. Looking forward to seeing the actual mod.

Bump for the mod. Just have got to have it - Please let us know when and where. It's not nice to tease people.

Volker try this site: http://www.combatmission.com/ Look under 3rd Party Mods, then Winter Vehicle Camo Textures, then Winter German Support Vehicles and then Stephan Galambos Packs. This should have all of the AT guns you need. As far as I know this is the only Winter AT guns available but I could be wrong and hope I am but don't think so. The reason is that these mods are pretty old so really aren't up to the standard's of our newer mods but better then nothing.

Hey Saturnin, any idea how long? :confused: . Not that I can't wait but I agree with Volker this tank needs to be updated and it is way overdue. Looking forward to seeing what you have. Keep us posted.

I like it. The way you raised it up makes it look like real grass. That's an excellent idea. Good job Tanks. And it's low res, outstanding. Please do let us know where we can get it or I'd even allow you to email me with it if you were so inclined. Another great improvement and good idea about making it low res.

Hey thanks alot mike8g I appreciate you taking the time to answer. I realize I should know where everything is by now but - well I guess I don't. Thank you. Now this should finish all my winter vehicles off. Cool - no pun intended.
