My thanks as well for your hard work - much appreciated.
-
Very nice Egger - I like to use a mixture of mods and I rate yours as good as any.
-
Just got from CMMODS. What more can one say about these amazing mods?
Same for me as well - thanks Fuser
-
Again, amazing work - my thanks also
-
Another excellent addition - my thanks also.
-
Exactly. Great for grandmas too. But frankly there is so much primary source material available on PATHE, Liveleak, YouTube and websites that I find reading anything like Beevor's accounts to be Mawkish.
Compare Beevor's type of 'on the page' recounts with something like Buchanan's book 'Churchill Hitler and the Unecessary War' where the latter author actually does come up with something unique.
Screw Beevor and his fit for strip mall bookshop bargain bin publications.
So you're critical of Beevor, yet cite Buchanan. Yeah, right.

I actually think they look great as they are; in fact, they blend in suberbly with the terrain, plus they are, after all, photographs of Sicily....
-
Awesome mod - looks great. Hope you never tire of praise, cause you're woth it all
Sums up my feelings as well - thanks Fuser.

Palermo, Sicily, you can imagine how much dust and sand these Shermans had...
I did manage to establish that some British and Canadian units got re-painted in England before being shipped out to Sicily, but I don't suppose this lasted very long given these conditions!
-
Could be, you may be perfectly right on that matter, but many of the pics I have found show very dusty Shermans,
But, who knows, modding is adding that "extra" you like for your own game,...and then share,...so that's it.
Thanks for the feedback.
Happy to stand corrected - and thanks for your amazing work!

Fuser, I absolutely love all of your work, and I'm pretty sure I have everyone one of your mods installed. So this is not a criticism, but I just wondered whether US vehicles would be that dirty for the Sicily campaign? I must admit that I know nothing about when, and how often vehicles were repainted, (so would welcome any expert comments on this) but would vehicles not have been re-camouflaged following North Africa, and therefore might (initially at least) have had a pretty 'clean' appearance?
-
Excellent work of a very high quality - my thanks as well.
-
I've not read this one yet, but I've heard good things about it:
I have read it and it's excellent. I would also thoroughly recommend Grossman's novel, Life and Fate, which is set during the war on the Eastern front, and is widely considered to be one of the 20th centuries literary masterpieces.
-
My thanks as well - a really nice alternative.

I was looking to try and find details of the father of a friend who had fought with the Paras at Arnhem when I stumbled across this site:

I have no idea whether it is of any use, etc, but thought someone might want to have a look

Your post made it sound he'd been gone for many months or longer with the implication that "he's ancient history, let's move on" in the same tone, as "What has he done for us recently?".
Aris is/was probably THE most important modder the CM2 series has had. And it troubles me at least that he's disappeared.
Erwin, If that's the impression you got, it was not what I intended. I agree with your views on Aris. I was just pointing out that sometimes modders do 'move on'. Nothing more than that. I obviously hope that if he wants to continue to work on CMBN/FI, then he does.
-
"but (Aris) hasn't been around for quite sometime now"
What? A few weeks is such a long time that we can forget about some one who has performed a great service for you after that??? How old are you?
What on earth are you talking about. Who is talking about forgetting Aris' work?
-
Do we give Juju his free copy before or after we give one to Aris for all the work he did on CMBN?
You remember Aris? Anyone...?
I don't think that anyone has forgotten Aris and what he has done for this game, but he hasn't been around for quite sometime now. Maybe he's having a break and will return, but it could be that he's moved onto something else, something I've seen happen many times with other modders and other games.

I used the ATI one and tried a scenario which had terrible shadow flickering on buildings. That's now gone, but the flickering has replaced by a kind of subtle wave effect. It is however an improvement!
Forgot to mention - shadows are much better
-
I just had a quick look. It loaded alright, and the only thing I noticed was that some of the vines were only 'appearing' at point blank range. Balanced settings.
-
I agree with the above - thanks!
-
I'm a little behind thanking you for each vehicle, so thanks for these, and all of your recent ones. Outstanding work as always.
-
My thanks as well - an amazing piece of work and much appreciated

vs AI or H2H?
The briefing says best as H2H or Allies V AI.
