IT WORKS. I love it. I know exactly what you refer to. My France 1940 battle in Les Attaques, the churchyard could use those as well. Good work Nige. Everything is in the eye of the beholder. BFC efforts seem to me to be a final hospice heartbeat away from death. MAYBE they are behind the scenes preparing for the big release of CMPW Combat Mission Putin's War after the war ends? Charles is coding in more aspects of drones and somebody is adding animation for jack in the box turret explosions? But who knows. Nige, @WimO and a few others are to me the "ALT BFC"... BFC has not embraced to my knowledge anything we are doing. It is so sad. Bloody wankers.

I advise to open an actual trouble report and @BFCElvis will be on it like a bird on a Junebug

not sure how to help you, it might be changed by the patch made by STEAM release or PBEM++. My analogy is that BFC brings a new item, garbanzo beans aka chickpeas(?), to the salad bar with a patch but accidentally and unknowingly delete cucumber slices in the same patch. They have done this several times.

I am a Windows 7 slacker and cannot use your CM Auto Editor tool. But if I was able to, it would be a good experiment to make a test map with red and a test map with cyan and do a comparison to how much it impacts the final product. Thanks Nico! EDIT: And fear not, I WILL make scenarios with the 2 maps you made me for France 1940.

I understand all that Herr obercodenfuhrer! I propose that if it is a rural area then how bad can it be for using red versus cyan from your image? I figure it is good enough for a CM scenario.

@Scipio Not here since late 2021 it says. Hi Scipio, FYI, I updated your CMMODS no tracer mod since engine 4 changed tracer filenames for some or maybe all of the titles. I have as subfolders to eliminate green, red, orange or white tracers. EDIT: for my selfish purposes I have only tested in latest engine and all modules versions of CMFI and CMRT. So, unknown for other titles. Anybody wants it, here it is down below. @Bootie Hi sir, I guess update that CMMODS file - if you so desire among your busy tasks... https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/qi5w4d2b165y5vfi2i9rc/h?rlkey=ag818pl6syloosml8drpwroqp&dl=0 Coming soon I hope to mod the tracers to chartreuse, salmon, periwinkle and lavender. j/k

I will scope it out later today. Thanks!

So, now I will swing over to some CMFI Korea 1950 Mod map making. I have this nice photo here to guide me. @Lucky_Strike Hey dude, we all miss you. Mark, I have tried emails and PM's. I need some KOREAN terrain help! But please just let us know you are ok and all is well. NOTE TO SELF: I need to mod the CMFI horizons to be more lush and green for Korea. Or maybe check with H&E first. @37mm

Yawn. I think I will take a little break on the soldiers and move over to a vehicle for a while... Already in CMFI is the M-24 Chaffee so no "Fake Lobster" here! The good old scale modeler hobby is always a juicy source of vehicle markings. I made it back before the one hour curfew!

I will do just a wee bit of modding for the US Army soldiers. I already have the USMC UNIFORM mod from previous modder's work. Credit to them. I hope in September to play a PBEM against my buddy Gary and DAR it here in this thread. Probably it will be ROK Task Force Smith. Here is a great story about Task Force Smith... https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/citations/ADA381834

Starting the KPA summer cap...the round commie cap badge in the 2D bmp gets stretched in 3D so I gotta mess with counter-stretching it the other way on the bmp. Also the shoulderboards are a pain in the butt.

KPA sneaker shoes are done...maybe tomorrow I tackle the caps. "Looks good enough" is my guiding motto!

Rest in Peace, Corporal Del Ware, US Army, 24 August 1932 - 29 August 2023

Alright, first efforts, still need to add back the pockets and buttons and stitching of the neck opening.

Hi guys, I am working on this new mod and would love for some folks to saddle up and take on the effort of creating a scenario for the mod. I often find inspiration from looking at existing ASL scenarios. ASL scenarios are usually my size scenarios for ease of creation and play. I search using the ASL scenario archive. I searched North Koreans attacking Americans and got 25 scenarios. NK attacks US I searched Americans attacking North Koreans and got 20 scenarios. US attacks NK Open one of the links, click on a scenario and it opens and has some generalized description of the scenario with units and an ASL map. You can of course diverge away from what its says and be flexible. Or try and make it come to life in the CM world. Come on you sunzabidges!

This is the platform for the eventual new textures. Flieger uniform and the M43 cap. Edit the mds to get some gear back on.

oh good.

@ViperAssassin26 I am not at my home PC with audacity and the CM folders right now but here is what I recall that I do... Grab a working M249 file and right click to jot down its properties. size in KB and under details, the bit rate in kbps. Then import/open your new one in audacity and modify it to be the same. Modify AFTER you select the entire file. The sound squiggle thing with timeline should be darkened. Export as a wave file. Make sure you name it properly too. right click on that NEW one and check if it matches the original specs Slap in z folder. Restart the game and try it out.

I am out of town this weekend but in a few weeks I will start to develop the summer 1950 KPA foot soldiers.

I pilfered the following...Asian faces, Asian language voice files, USMC uniforms. Thanks!

Korean surnames successfully showing. I am downloading the Pacific Mod to see what I might utilize (with credit to original team).

I see current CMFI may 1945 US as remaining to be the US but can also be USMC. I see Sherman IIA as T-34/85 and so British split off as the North Koreans. The British small arms are fortunately best to become Soviet supplied small arms: bolt-action rifles, SMG and LMG are very apples to apples. @Chibot Mk IX Good idea - but I will leave it to others to make the Brazilians as the ROKA.

@37mm Sir, request permission to harvest your Pacific mod for anything useful for Korea 1950.

I am doing the soldier names text file today. 86 most popular Korean surnames off a google search. Eat an elephant one spoonful at a time. EDIT: all done. I will test later today.
