Me too I can try the Japanish helmets, I did already the US with straps,also for airborne, Australian... and last time the Danish for Umlaut.
JM

Lucky this is exactly what I want to say...
But in my way not "really British" 😂
 
And PS  Nigel don't feel stupid about this stuff - it's not easy and none of us are experts, mostly we just get results by trial and error 
this I forgot😊

Yes he did one Phil, and already something very interresting and we can download it by CMBN section, then a couple of years later @Aquila-SmartWargames was making some change in graphics and I think also terrains.
That you can also download on his page by the big 2 or 3 Gigas.
Perhaps @37mm can pick up something for his new version ?

I saw something that dont exist in cm...
 
I was thinking for the cold and dirty time like I saw a picture of dirt and mud, for exemple before come the snow in CMFB, and in the region of @RockinHarry were working a lot with "You enter in Germany", to created something "for the cold" (joking)...
 
Ok ok we dont have Brat Pitt here, but we have already some "warlords players" on the forum...
 

 

 
Bluffing isn't !!! hahaha
🙄Pity that with helmets we have always a problem that the model take only one texture. !!!
 
Dont worry, this will not appear in the wreck mod !

whoaaw is very nice not only the ruins but also the sky, the soldiers, the pavement, or street, the things in the street, the fences, the, the, the, ... all is beautiful with a good reshade I will try later but I m sure to dont have this beautiful effect I have to reinstall the reshade first thank you to share it ...

Playing trains in the Anhalter Bahnhof...
 

Hehe nice try I was playing the axe and they took some hits then I took the place of the allied and they were more strong, the problem is the smoke that hidding the target very quick but is nice to see that they can fire from the roof... this is my opinion !
JM 

Correct!
off the ground and above allowed "in building placement" (which is nogo normally unless using the unit first - building second cheat)
Both! The hacked MDR is for initial placement only. My theory is that it circumvents the games "no guns nor vehicle" placement editor rule and puts it outside normal boundaries (above the buidling in this case). But a ground unit got to be somewhere, so it can´t float in the air and thus drops down to next "valid" (invalid actually) ground spot, in this case the upper level of a building directly below. The NOGO on destroyed roofs still applies, so it drops down to next "valid" one. That´s my theory.
Once the Flak sticks to this upper level it gets "valid" status and remains there, even when therafter replacing the hacked MDR with original one again. This status then gets saved with the mission file obviously. Then you can keep going with placing original MDR object like example below.
This is from 1st game turn setup phase. Doesn´t change when hitting GO. Everybody stands and fights from positions they got assigned during editor placement phase. Fun thing in below example the one Flak on the balcony (right hand building) gets the crew turning to bungee jumpers. At least parts of them. 😅

Thank you, very much Aquila, to be honest, I don t feel me really as a good modder, because I have some problems sometimes to apply textures, but more as "a guru" with the devise, "this will works this will not works, we will see", but is very kind of you that you see some of my abilities to mods, anyway, the light on the forum about the 3d, came, because of you, happy that more often now, we have sparks very welcome from news modders, handling terrains, scripts and the 3d in general.

Thread shouldn´t see much activity and people usually check out 1st and last post, here the
Abstract:
Utilize the Blender method in order to create/import new (3D) objects or modify existing objects in Combat Mission. Furhtermore techniques and ideas how to integrate these in-scenario.
Mods/Downloads:
The majority of the 3D custom mods released here are of experimental, educational, and proof-of-concept nature and never had the intention to become a quality/final product. They were not made to look great. Objective was to breach boundaries and enable modders to employ and further develop these techniques in order then to create shelf-ready mods. Was clear to most as I stated it dozen of times but there is always the particuar not very bright struggling to understand, this should sort it out extra clear.
Text:
Good information but alot of clutter. Documented and described all discoveries. Best to start from beginning, skip what is not interesting. Used bold to emphasize. Good skimming skills welcome.
Videos:
Alongside documented alot of my Blender experiments by video recording them. Some without commentary, newer ones with. Not easy as the Blender method per se is unusual but computer layman level individuals reported to me they were able to figure it out using the videos. Skip video parts you don´t see relevant. I recommend to start with the later - commented - videos. Linked video 47 is a good start. Playlist:
 
Next?:
My objective is completed. @JM Stuff @37mm @Lucky_Strike  @kohlenklau @NPye and other very talented modders released quality mods and are further developing and exploring new methods. Check out their threads for the most up-to-date knowledge. You will find their work in the respective threads usually located in the CM games´ mods forum sections.
 
Great too see the plenty of promising projects
Good modding

Thanks you @Lt Bull to post, my blame, here, you can find Ideas Opinions and Projects that we can discuss about, also members can eventual explain what they would like to see, I will put my brain to realised it.   When stuffs are ready I shake hand to Bootie to put on the correct place.   Sometimes things in the link in my signature but this has to be updated, sorry for this inconvenience.   I try that all is ready for Christmas with news wrecks packs in the model of the RTPk1 already on CMMODs for Allied, Axes, and Civilians or mixed vehicles and stuffs.   @RockinHarry, found that we can added  now not 9 Flavour objects (FOs), but 16, where a mod of buttons created from himself, is necessary to see all categories of FOs available, that I recommand to everybodys to download it, and say thank you, Harry also for the link.   This is a huge job, and I need more time to realized it, but I m never without, news ideas, so, just wait...   Bigs Packs will come for :   CMBN, FI, FB, RT, CW, BS, nothing this time for SF2, but is perhaps possible to pick up some stuffs, from BS, or CW, for Russian material minimum, any Ideas?   Thanks again to all yours supports guys.    Voila voila   JM  

Who else as our Lucky guy, the master of the Nature.
Harry, your pictures are really nice and seem to be real, is really a wonder to use correctly the famous Reshade, when you have a good knowledge of a good setup !
