  1. Have you tried sbobovyc's Mutator  Artkin? It doesn't require any Hex edition, only to use a Terminal of some sort.

    I've used it to convert BS and SF2 maps to all WW2 titles, simply by following DesertFox's instructions :

    In Win 10 basically right-click on start and choose command (admin).

    Step 1: Copy the scenario you want to convert into a folder of your choice. For simplicity sake let´s use C:\test. Also copy the mutator.exe there.

    Step 2: Now start windows command prompt

    Step 3: Within the command prompt navigate to C:\test

    Step 4: convert your scenario to CMBS. Lets say it was called ABC.btt and originally created for CMRT.

    Step 5: Type the following in the command prompt: "mutator.exe - t CMBS ABC.btt"

    then press ENTER and your CMRT scen will be converted to a file named ABC_CMBS.btt

    Step 6: Copy the converted file to your CMBS scen folder

    Enjoy!

    I don't use brushes for mud efects. I use photoreal samples of mud, dust, splatters, and so on...The brushes I use you can get them from free in the net, not that they are so rare. I first apply some general weathering with Multiply blending mode (opacity usually around 15-20%), then I apply some real (photoreal I mean) stains, dust, mud in Normal mode(opacity varies from 10 to 15%), once opacity reduced, brushes come to help, splatters, stains, etc. But if you want some nice effects go get some masked photoreal dirt pics, select portions, modify opacity, delete... They make the difference.I use filters to modify the Background focus and detailing,...Hue/Saturation command in PS it's of great help too.

    I bet that all pieces of advice from the Golden horse's mouth could be compiled and be such a valuable help to all wannabe weathering artist. 📖 💡

  3. Bil mentioned that his mod "Uses US Army WW2 map symbols to help identify unit types."

    In his new format, for infantry, Bil use a symbol that seems to depict a whole unit , as Ian choose to too.

    There is a mod that sports "authentic" symbols, for the Italian though

     

    I'm contemplating the idea of doing an icon mod, from scratch, once I'll have honed my skills in 'toshop.
