    IMHO, CMRT will still be missing a module after F&R, the one to bring Hungarians, Finns and Romanians (the later on both sides) to the game, it would be great to have also captured materiel (beute tanks how I miss you) and Cavalry TOE and vissuals...

    After this...whatever you like...

    Just to clarfy, Athens was quite antidemocratic, Spartans were a bunch of bastards, Rome was the evil empire (sorry but the 666 is a cavalistic reference to Neron) and Darth Vader, even if he has cookies, space destroyers and tie fighters, is a criminal under any standar you might apply (maybe not long time ago and on a galaxy far, far away...but luckily i'm judgin it from here and now)...nevertheless I've got a problem evaluating Napoleon...I guess I should ask a british...vae victis.

     

    Dear Mr @Battlefront.com, I assure you I do not usually waste my time on things like this...but this is all your fault... you see, I was almost posting about  the history of my family on both sides of the SCW to counter the "you more" nonsense and "bad guys" illiteraty...incredible, reading the chat when I do have on my desk the 2nd vol. of "the Oder front 1945" and "the Berlin Operation 1945"...I guess I'm completly lost...save me please...you are the only one that can do it...

    RELEASE IT NOW... PLEASEEEEEE

    Are  there winter and summer skins, by chance?  Their cheeks and noses have a nice, wintry rosy red look.

    I have also noticed that the skin is redder in the screenshot, and the texture may have used the <winter> tag to make it different, just like the <night> tag in CMBS for facial camouflage, and the <snow> tag in many mods for snow on clothes

     

    In order for you to have glove textures the BMP affecting the face it is [SNOW] tagged and could be different...Could be all of this or maybe we will have a [VODKA] tag...but who cares...RELEASE IT NOW!!!!!!!!

    If you refer to panther D and if I am correct, in early August 43 only at GD, later the same moth DR (22 of August, to late for the 1st of August battles I guess ) which recovered their I.Abt equiped with  71 panthers, then 26 PzD, then 13PzD, and so on.....and ofcourse...in Italy early in August AH. 

    On August 1, as an example, TK PzR reported some command tanks (no gun), 3 Tigers, 11 PzIVs & 5 PzIIIs operationals, ...TK will not receive panthers till the end of 1943.

    Well, interesting topic...which reminds me of, If I recall correctly,  that the most condecorated US soldier in the Vietnam war confessed he entered combat almost always under the effects of drugs...I guess a normal state of mind could not withstand being under the pressure of combat for a long time without being burned out ...also, out of curiosity...but you know where the word assasin comes from...did you?

    They don t recieve perhaps the usual helmet but they recieve it a old model !

    I keep this picture to make  a mod later for FR...so Volksturm helmet yes !

    And now comes JM, another great modder, to whom I was always shy to ask if it is difficult to add a visor to the sidecap...

    I would prefer if they kept it to Volkssturm. The Volkssturm would be wearing field caps in combat simply because they didn't receive helmets.

    Hi Frenchy!, I was thinking of you..I own you one due to the tank officers sidecaps...you save my life...and pretend to get the m43 cap in action  in the near future...your contribution gets me into messing with the mds's (...i do myself a mod for the pzgrenadiers that force the tankers to have strange sole shoes and flak-sdkfs  crew uniforms are messy...but...😏...you cannot get everything)

    Just hope the new units do not abuse of common 3d models for me to continue to mess with it a little bit more (will love some day their mds would follow the rule of the bmps, so this is for pzgr, that for crew and those for gbj)...

    It's also about finding evidence of use in combat conditions (which is varied research and imperfect science for determination of that).

    ye it is, and thanks to that science we will have Jagdtigers...you guys are delivering a piece of art...for you to Know

    Gebirgsjägers are a bit different. Those uniforms I did (using Mike's base) were a last minute add for CMFB, I believe. Steve had to do some magic to get the uniforms to show, so changing the headgear is another layer of complexity beyond the others. Better than not having the uniform at all, in my book. Possible in the future, but these seemingly small changes are prone to break lots of stuff.

    ...well...i´m an Ostfronter...you know how we are ...always ranting to the minimal thing...ofcourse Gebirgsjägers are wellcome even with sidecaps (I wonder how a uniform freak as Steve allowed it to happens...he is becoming old I guess)...

    There is an M43 cap in...

    if is the one I saw... well...almost a m43...ok ok I stop it...one stupid question...is the 3D model (.mds) the same for all the sidecaps?, if yes, well I will mess it a little bit more that desired...

    there are a lot of things...but really...what i want is that the concept of OPERATION of the old CM came back, or at least carry the damage and some wrecks to replay the scenario simulating a breakthrough/defensive battle on a campaing...

    I really want to get rid of the feeling of "thats all, you loose, move to attack in another place, even if you have just commit your recon element and got all your forces ready for a breakthrougth and you got the enemy almost broken" when attacking or "great you win, lets defend another position, cause, you know, the enemy will never attack again here, even if you had barely hold the line" when defending....and when it comes to  last year of ww2, it makes me crazy...

    accidentally I did a check today, due to some problem in my back up PC, so I do have downloaded all the games I own (including the big Upgrade pack, some 45Gigas) from the BF site, weir was that at the begining it started telling that it would last 2 days even for the smaller CMFI and then in less than 5 hours everything was in....
