    Darknight (DC) got a reaction from WimO in Darknight's CMBN Magnum Opus   
    Okay, I've finally finished this mod project...it's been going on in some form or another for years but the present vision was started last July or August, then I took a winter hiatus and being stuck at home has given me time to finally finish.
    This mod started, as most of my mod work has, with my beloved CW troops.  I have nearly driven myself to madness in the past with my completionist obsession for modding the entire 21st Army Group but I deliberately avoided that problem this time by only focusing on the CW units actually represented in CMBN scenarios and campaigns.  I have modded the uniforms and vehicles for each CW unit that appears in CMBN (no small feat but better than my original obsession 😉), which led me to an exhaustive examination of all of the scenarios and campaigns I could find (reading notes, briefings and digging through the OOBs).  At this point, I decided that I wanted to make it easy to use the mod, so that meant looking into ModTags.  All of the unit graphics have had ModTags applied to them.
    I identified 175 scenarios and 22 campaigns that would lend themselves to specific units being represented (CW, US & German); then, I extensively ModTagged all 175 of these scenarios.  For the 22 campaigns, since I couldn't add ModTags to the individual missions, I created campaign-specific mod .BRZ files, which will accomplish the same goal.  Along the way I have made a few changes to the CW armour models in a few of the scenarios and campaigns for greater unit historical accuracy but they are mostly unchanged by me.
    Not being an SME on American or German vehicles/uniforms, I have personally ModTagged many of the community mods that I use and I have also included them in a couple of separate .BRZ files that can be used or not, depending on your preference (the beauty of this system is that if you prefer other mods, just tag them yourself using the ModTags I've added to the scenarios and you can get whatever mix you like).
    Anyway, its all ready to go, I just need to put it up somewhere if people are interested.

    PS - If any scenario or campaign authors would like a particular CW formation that I haven't included (because they don't appear in CMBN yet), then drop me a line and I should be able to easily provide it, and I can advise on the ModTag structure and layering too, if needed.

    I tried putting the Operation Undergo mod up in a dropbox for Bootie but never heard whether he posted it.
    If you have a dropbox, I can send it to you.
    I will take a look at the new campaign over the next couple of days and see about modding it.

    I have finished working on the modded version of Operation Undergo (in the style of how I added mods to all the other campaigns).
    I just need to find a place to put it, if anyone would like it.

    Lol, I took a small break to play some games....
    I have the research completed (mostly), and lots of examples but CMFI is a more complex beast than CMBN.
    I could work on tagging all the scenarios fairly quickly but I don't have the as many of the mods completed for a comprehensive mod...
    Maybe I'll work on smaller chunks (for my own sanity).  🙃

    Back before Christmas, I created a new version of the Sherman Vc Firefly skins to be compatible with Aris' mods.
    I am still adding proper decals (it's actually the last CW vehicle I have to do).  I plan to release the comprehensive mod once I finish, but I might be able to update the Firefly only on a shorter timetable if there's some demand.
