Well, some of them require the Vehicle Pack - others dont. Some Market Garden or Commonwealth modules.
 
The Flak 38, the U304´s and possibly the Hummel are from the vehicle pack. The Nashorn shouldn´t have been in this thread as it is only available in CMFI and CMRT. But Jorge MC brought them up, so I thought, I´d show them here.
 
The short answer is: If you have the vehicle in your game, then you can use the mod.

Guys, Question?
 
Do you have to have the vehicle pack to use the above mod's?

I've finally fully upgraded my CM:BN game and I, naturally, just had to update my UI one final time.
Simply 'updating' got out of hand rather quickly and we're now looking at a complete overhaul to bring the entire UI up to 'Red Thunder UI' standards.

There are still several behind-the-scene elements to tackle, but here's a preview of what's coming (click the pic for the original, much less blurry, image).



By the way, I could still use one more tester! Who's game?

Amazing work, mate. As always. Looking forward to getting it.
 
If you still need testers I´d like to help out - but I´m not quite sure what I should do as a tester?
 
Cheers

Thanks Dennis! As a tester you just need to have a set of eyes and play the game. Then you keep a lookout for anything out of place. You may also offer suggestions to improve stuff. If you're up for it drop me a mail!

Simply brilliant, as expected from you. Looking forward to release!

Pleased to see you had to update your UI one final time 
Clicking the full image displays the detail very well and your update looks great.
Your out of hand rather quickly... complete overhaul will be enjoyed by many upon release.
UI mods are literally 'in your face' all the time ... while you play the game.
Looking at your UI mods makes for a very pleasant experience.
Thanks,
Buzz
 

Wow. Very nice. Looking forward to using this.

I guess this going to work with CMBN- CW-MG Ver 3.11 game engine 3?
 
"Edit"  Never mine the above question  I see down in the corner what it covers.
Looks great.

Sir.
On the above mod could you provide a Link?  I just looked on GAJ web site CMBN I could not fine it?
thanks's for any info.

Those tunes are great and really add to the nostalgia and atmosphere, thanks a lot for sharing.

Gents, I just uploaded my updated music splash collection to GaJ's. For CMBN it includes some "universal" songs, such as "Lilli Marleen" and "It's a long way to Tipperary" and some Bristish Regimental Marches. All together 20 songs to choose from. They play during scenario loading. Just copy the song you want to "Z" and rename to "music splash".

I'm playing Town-Water-Damaged (1408 X 1152) 015 Meet. I started the game as Allied Batt size Mech Inf with two Sherman's. I laid smoke and Ran one of my Mech Coy over the road bridge and took the town. But the German's have a ton of armor and have massed on the rail bridge side. I was able to kill a number of them with flank shots... gonna promote that boy if I don't get him killed first... but the Huns didn't bother with the rail bridge! They slipped across usin the low ground of the ford. Damned! Now the're headed for my Maj VP (the rail station). Time for some coffee and cookies. That's sure to help.

SEE the pic? The cookies didn't help much.

Lane: Please follow these procedures.
 
First you take a good size spool or 2 of an AWG 12-2 extension cord and pay out around 500 feet out the window, through the yard and into your outside shed. Hold on. Make it through your neighbor's yard as well and into HIS shed. Then double back and return with your PC/laptop/monitor/keyboard/mouse with you and hunker down with some sandbags and some timbers in a horizontal fashion. Fire up a small cook stove and metal canteen cup, get some good c-ration coffee going. A little WW2 soundtrack background music always helps too. Gunfire and explosions. If you do have an old Army field jacket and steel pot, get them on. 
In between turns you gotta go run around the shed and roll around in the dirt. During the replay have that nice Mrs. of yours come out to the shed and slam a big broom up against the outer walls a few times and yell hostile comments in German. I guess if you are playing AS the Germans then she would just yell the same things in English that she normally yells as your loving wife.
Bottomline: Of course you disconnect from the internet when playing the AI. Who has that much Cat-5 to get out to the neighbors shed? And your wifi might not get a signal.

Thank's Sburke,
 
I think I found my crash dumpfile  I open a help file and got a ticket. Hope I sent the file and they can open it.
I can't  read it but sent to a folder I created I could not figure out how to open the file? I was able to read in my clipboard.
Well I known were the clipboard is now.
I sent the file hope they can open it.

Play the Scenario and you will find out why the Ratio of Vechicles  is so skewed
That ATG at the Intersection is Zeroed in on any armor vechicles that is see's  So I learned on how to try to take it out.
Try to get a armor Vechical  up on hight ground to the south. It may get one shot before that  guns takes it out. some times I get Luckey.and take out the gun. If not I move Mortar squads across the river and up  on High country to the south, to try to take out that nasty ATG. trouble is they have a limited amount of Mortar rounds.
May try it again tonight back to set up.

This is my AAR  at end of Battle CMBN Rainy River British Recon Advances
Going to try it again.  Like to see some of Vet's Play this Scenario. And see if they can get a Victory.  I lose each time I play. Just want to see how many enemy Casualties
She is a tough one for me because Germans are on high ground with there ATG
If this post Looks bad.will try to delete.it.

OK guys posted one up in screenshot area.  Used Hester's   Program.
It's a screen I had saved in FRAPs  Screenshots.   "A shot up Tank."
Can I due It again?? Did I get lucky??
Time will tell.
Time for a Break.
Regards
Lane

Ok first of all you don't need any special program to take screenshots, you simply press the PRINT SCREEN key on your keyboard located somewhere to the right of the F12 key depending on the layout.
 
Then you open PAINT, a very basic but free program that is bundled with every version of windows.
 
After that, press the following shortcut : CONTROL V to paste the screenshot you just took in game into PAINT.
 
Now select the CROP TOOL, then hold down the left mouse button and draw a square or rectangle around the area of the screenshot you want to keep. Then press the CROP button again. That will delete the area outside the rectangle you just drew.
 
Finally, open the FILE menu at the top left of the PAINT screen and select SAVE AS to pick the format you want to pick, usually JPEG.

Zane, hi again.

Here's the deal we gonna make.

Make a screenshot with Fraps. Screenshot gets saved in the folder where you installed the Fraps program. It's in the folder called "Screenshots".

When you are done taking screenshots with Fraps open the Paint program that you got together with your Windows. Go to "open" and pick a screenshot you want to use in that "Screenshot" Fraps folder. When it appears in Paint just go to "Save as" and pick a format (preferably JPG) you want to save the screenshot in. When saved screenshot will be of less size.

Hope this helps you and you know: Never give up and respect to you to for playing this game at your venerable age.

Paint works just fine for cropping, and converting BMPs to JPGs (to reduce their size). No need to download any pesky Googleware.

i use picassa for cropping and fraps for the screenshots - piece o cake!
