no, I don't know of it. @Erwin might

you're welcome. I had it down for the summer with intentions to go and sort it properly. That didn't happen. So, I just put the link back up and it is all kind of there for the picking over

@Heinrich505 I will use some Stalingrad mods of NPye to make the famous introductory scenario "The Guards Counterattack" October 6 so maybe the city is already rubble intense? OK, well. Maybe in a week or so.

I am sad to say that I must give up on Blender and the KV-1. It is very difficult and always showing oddities and my brain could not find the solution. I am sorry Tommy. I am not a superhero. MAYBE...based on seeing the costs of 3D modelling are not that high and the glut of 3D artists and skills versus even 5 years ago, I suspect that BFC could do all this in a weekend of effort and charge us and at least break even. I always think Charles is the bottle neck and they have to go through him for the smallest of code changes. It makes sense and who am I to challenge what they do.

I guess I am "semi-back"

No, I do not have any at all. Try @nathangun I know he made up a VASSAL(?) related product that a CM player manually uses to interface with an operational layer without needing a referee. Maybe not exactly what you want, but maybe he has module creation experience...

No worry. I took the summer off from CM. However you make the map (tie 2 guy's wishes into one product) is aok with me. Thanks.

This is an attempt to make an early war scenario. well, at least in early Barbarossa. @Artkin, feel free to edit to change to your desired mix of conscripts and whatever works best. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/uw734oj917n33dx/AAD9XWZS-klhS3tB6brHXELxa?dl=0 I took a summer break from all things CM. But I have been playing lots of VASL...and also LnL Tactical Digital on steam. In a few months I will surely get a hankering for some new CM efforts.

When I get home I will tell you the files to remove to return some of those issues to normal...it is just a few. Dang. Maybe all in that optional folder! Give that a try. Edit: I will go into my Goody Box and yank those headaches out so folks don't see stuff unless modtagged. It was fun to make and I like to see it but it is indeed a hassle.

Hey Havran, There are a few mods that are optional and make BLANKET changes to a few things. I suggest you play the 1 CMRT Italy scenario and then delete it all out of z. That will fix the opening screen being Italy. Making all these mods is like having 10 girlfriends at once. Hell breaks loose when you call one by the wrong name!

yeah, popularity of this item was low. Like that Ronco battery-powered crotch scratcher from the early 70's...just didn't take off in sales.

Looks awesome to me. AND you are cool about the rules and allow players to mutually tweak it and adjust. Good job sir. That red Volvo must have armor plating!

forumite 1: I want my steak with blue cheese crumbles. forumite 2: I would like mine with mushrooms, portabella mushrooms forumite 3: how about thinly sliced with horseradish BFC:

I would like it as a scenario editor setting. scavenging on. scavenging off. So in the heat of battle, you could have your guys run out and try and scavenge a PPsH off a dead Russian soldier. Close Combat was a different game (in 2D) and I remember one awesome thing about it was this very aspect.

oh yeah, that could be it...

BFC says they will not code in "scavenging" I think they said because that never happens in real wars. Baloney. What do we see in Ukraine? Real or hokey or uncommon. Who cares. I absolutely love seeing my out of ammo German troops scavenging around the winter Sot front battlefield and maybe grab a PPsH in non-CM games!

I think it is the Strings File. It has ALL units of all titles indexed a certain way but if you do NOT update properly then you get an out of date file and see this weirdness. I can only suggest to load it all again carefully in the proper order and then activate. OR you go to the official helpdesk and get a "ticket" and they walk you through it.

oh yes, good point. My brain was thinking just about the mods.

oh Spike, you are often so hilarious...

Not a stupid question at all. for me...under local disk C then Program Files (x86) then Battlefront then Combat Mission Red Thunder then Data you create a subfolder z (or maybe already there, I forget) and THAT is where you put the mods. Some people organize the z folder a certain way, I just shove it all in there and therefore I sometimes have issues, but I got a lot going on, you should be ok. Holler out if you have any snags

I don't think I would ever "pay" for a course for a game. If you are hurting for some spare change, no offence intended, focus fully on the current system where you make youtube videos and if you kick butt with a watchable product then the money slides in by sponsors and ads. Right? The entire tracking of who payed and they have a password or get the link? That sounds like a hassle to me. Word of mouth will spread here easily for maybe tons of free views of your girlfriend or other female actor hotty reading her CM tips. Trying to get forumites to spread your message of "pay me $2 and I will teach you..." I think people will not be motivated to spread that message. If you follow me. again, best wishes to you and your interesting project.

Timmy, land at Pflugerville, hold the bridges, resistance is expected to be Hitler youth and old men, and XXX Corps should easily make the 53 miles in 2 days.

53 miles from my house.

yes. definitely. Didn't your brother or somebody move to Texas? Near me I recall. Or was that somebody else...?

I honestly have not messed with it much. I want to but have a bunch of construction projects on my plate. Building an outdoor sauna and a grand dining room (2 stories ceiling with staircase to a loft)... Also a ton of travel plans here and there. Our first cruise. A visit to my older brother who had a stroke. yada yada yada etc etc I do really want to get to it in combo with a forumite who is making a big arse Barbarossa map. EDIT: I just remembered the wife is headed out of town next week for an overnight with her Mom (age 92) going to a casino down by the Rio Grande. Indian tribe casino...my mother-in-law can stay there by the slot machine like 24 hours! I can fire up Blender and try to make some headway on the KV1 and the Italian M13/40 as well.
