  1. Hehe Oddball :D .I'm glad you like my mods!Maybe I can make some panzer mods with holes from russian guns for you and and the other Red army's fans out there(I'm a fan too, although my

    nick is panzermartin ;) ).

    Well, so far I have made two winterized panzers, which you can find at the MOD database, but I intend to make some more in the future.Hope I will have something new soon.

  2. A small update now, to thank you all for

    your response and good words.

    A whitewashed T70 light tank(Andreas you can

    put a tick on your list now ;) ).

    This one I had it almost done anyway.I use it a

    lot in QBs(which btw arent going very well since I started this new hobby :rolleyes: )

    Andreas, I have read about CMCM2 and although

    I am not aware of the details, it sounds a great idea overall.Time permitting I will attempt to

    winterize some of the vehicles listed.PZIIIJ PZIVs HT's and T34s are some of the ones I would

    like to mod in the future.

    Cheers

    Dimitris

  3. A big thanks to you guys for your support and your generous comments!

    Being a beginner your feedback is the best motivation that I could have to continue my modding work and try harder.A big thanks also

    to the great modders out there(Fernando,Gordon Molek and many others) whose work has inspired me in making these mods.You set the standards.

    Andreas, these pictures are very interesting.

    Hasty white washes were the standard winter camouflage technique during those war days.

    Even chalk was used to counter the shortages

    of white paint!I will propably try a hasty winter camo mod.It requires some extra work

    to produce a good looking model with this

    method but it's really worth it.

    Hope I'll soon have something new for you all smile.gif

  4. Thank you all for your kind words.I'm glad you

    like my work smile.gif .Well if you take a closer look you might find some faults here and there because

    my technique is a bit experimental but I'll try

    to avoid them in future attempts.Tracer, I'm using Paintshop 7 and to be honest the whites

    are random RGB combinations(close to 255 255 255 of course).I used overlay and other layers on the grey original to lighten it up without losing the detail underneath.Then I played with some browns for dirt and shadows.I'm an amateur modder and I propably ignore some useful techniques that other modders apply for a quicker and more "clean" result.Hope I'll

    learn from them and improve.

    Btw the screen I took is with antialiasing and

    anisotropic filtering on for my Geforce card(with new detonator drivers).CMBB is amazing graphically with these applied.Thanks Scipio!

  5. Actually a friend of mine ordered the english version of CMBB from a french wargames store as he had done with CMBO.Although CMBO was in the correct english version, this time CMBB arrived

    in the french language :( .On his request to

    send him the english version instead, they replied that it wasnt available anymore, and if he wished he could send it back in order to return him the money.So we both have to play

    CMBB using a dictionary, because with so many

    new features its impossible to find out what is what by simply guessing.Believe me its frustrating trying to play CMBB using your tiny knowledge of french(bonjour, bon oui etc) :rolleyes: .So I'm desperately asking for help.Does anyone have any idea if the language of the game(units, orders, map elements and various texts)can be switched to english with the replace of some files?(No problem with the BMPs, these ones I can fix them myself)

    Thanks for any help

  6. I haven't got the game yet but I really wonder

    if the quick battles are as well balanced as they

    are in CMBO in terms of force points.Are the russians able to counter the quality of the german troops with quantity?What is the usual

    force ratio in a CA meeting battle?(inf,armor etc)Are there any "gamey" units that can unbalance the game in such a degree that rules should be applied to prevent their use?I guess that some time periods would favour the one or the other side and would not offer a challenging duel for

    a PBEM game, right?What are the thoughts of the

    CMers who have tried PBEM battles?
