Pudel & Felek – Polish Panthers in the Warsaw Uprising
https://tanks-encyclopedia.com/ww2-poland-pudelfelekl-polish-panthers-warsaw-uprising/

Here's another tree that someone might like to see - Hammy Hamster perhaps?

Once again this is a found model brung into CM with lots of wrangling. In practice it works quite well, but the leaves do not sway, leads me to think there's something in the leaf models I missed which determines movement. This is good as I might be able to isolate the setting that gives us sway. Or probably not! The leaf models here are very differnt than normal BF leaf models so that may also be the issue. I don't actually think I could model this with our standard leaf model.
The trunk texture is messed up again, but now I know roughly what causes it I can hopefully remedy the issue.
So thinking about what @Erwin asked regarding releasing these - I'm leaning more towards tree packs rather than full terrain mods. Most of the models I've made lately can be used in any of the games, with little or even no interaction from the player they can be dumped into your Z folders and off you go. Any thoughts out there?

News from the front !
New module news allies wrecks only << axis on work >>  both soon available !
 

Yes sorry Bootie, like Phill said family first, I will do the same, thanks to help us !

Was talking with Bootie, mod is on the way...

CM HELL

Hi all thanks Phill for the detailled post above thanks Aragorn2002...
For the little story I send the full package yesterday to Bootie with some restrictions cos Phill was sending me a message later that I didn't know, with more instructions about his later finish job with scenarios and others stuff.
So I was saying to Bootie that he has to wait to put on the CMMODs untill Phill give me or send  himself to Bootie the last job that he did, is only later that he send me alI and I made the last transfert in one time including the last package of Phill.
I guess soon I will recieve a mail from Bootie to confirm that he recieve all in one time and will be playable soon, sorry for this inconvenient ...
Hope my text is clear enough.
JM

done !

For me is
CMBN, included CMBN MG cos there is a lot of choices of units, scenarios, campaings and, when we are finish with the Normandy atmospher, we can trying to jump of Arnhem and around, where personly, I have consacred a full installation independant as Normandy module, with a new UI view..., thanks to Juju mods, but also new buildings, terrains, units,  not only, Paras or Airborne or SS troops are presents, but also usual Commonwealth troops, again Reserve german, and Marinen troops, but also diverse reserve units like lot german shools reserve units, mixed bataillons..., without forgot the famous Frundsberg and Hohenstoffen Division, that with a little patience and knownledges, we can created with modtags... for me another atmospher independant as Normandy... I like also the
CMFB in general rule cos this is also a very interresting stuff, but I wish to see the new module that will drive us trough the Rhin, with for sure new vehicles and stuffs trough the famous battle phase of the Remagen bridge, and the Hürtgenwald, and more... The new 
CMRT FR is very interresting with his new stuffs and the awaiting partisans troops, that I am sure to see more interresting stuffs in the time, in differents periods including Vichy presence... Now that
CMFI Phill mods are on, with his famous CMAK2, really accepting from members, are seeing to day, I see the power and the possibilities, that have CMFI to let us travel to another period, in the name of travel, I would like to see also the early war, with invasion of the Netherlands Belgium Lux and France... The reworked 
CMSF take for me the less interresting period, (already that I dont like the modern periods wars), I dont like too much the conflict from Syrian, or perhaps when others "red" factions wil be include like, Tchethenien war,  Iran Irak war will be also very interresting, or differents middle east Arabs factions, but I think to see this and have a TOE more appropriated we have to wait to have more factions from CMCW, and created Beirut, famous 67, 73 and more conflicts Israel Arabs factions (but also and this is my favourit period the Yougoslavia in the 90 century), not sure that we can created something about these periods with CMSF but I can be wrong, I like more the battles of the past this is probably why i dont have so much interrest of CMSF.  The new
CMCW game is out I have fun to play it I wish only to see the Brit or West German, or others modules to include more factions, and also the reason explained above...  
So really I cannot make a choice, all the games have a beautiful sides, and this is without to know, what BFC reserve us for the future...

nice to see sherman riders, I hope one day to see that also for cmbn !

Partisan ambush triggered.  

Yes indeedy. Bocage and low bocage, and even hedges to a lesser extent, are incredibly flexible for creating interesting ground cover. They can be combined with so many different ground textures and other foliage such as trees, bushes and brush to create a variety of dense cover. I have similarly experimented with using gapped bocage as the basis for thickets in European woods and forests since this is something which is missing as a foliage type in all the games. The results are surprisingly convincing in game and provide both concealment and more or less cover, especially when viewed from ground level.

immersion total beautiful graphics nices sounds the first moments of the clip is very real seem to be the beginin fo a movie all is very nice !  also the sounds far away is nice ? really enjoying to see from the begining to the end !
russian tanks slogans, externe noise also the engine and gear very nice 
scenario seem to be also very interresting !
missing only the tanks tracks trace and the foot step in the snow and all will be perfect !
probably one of the best clip !
ok sorry the response stay at the end of the video  I just delet my question ! 
plus one

I am happy to read the content of Lucky and Erwin, towards his tests and this works cos we wan the best for our little tin soldiers
so the brz that break your head, when they are, I will say unzipped
from CMBN in particular,
yes this module contains innumerable files, sometimes not essential, because obsolete or having changed suffix, and where an in-depth study of the files is necessary to dissect the content, for example :

by sacrificing some textures with a copy of his game is necessary to discover that all the files are not used in the game, I have experienced it, and I have voluntarily drawn a colored circle from different colors on my uniforms, doing the same with helmets and faces to find out that not everything is used in the game.

The face files are not all used to my astonishment, the 14 american skin files of my last mod, the famous
CMBN Mod: US Helmet Paras Normandy Filthy,... more, over the face files have two names, and some could be put in the trash, like for example the following skins
german-soldier-skin 1 2 3 .... bmp
us-soldier-skin
canadian-soldier-skin
polish-soldier-skin
locate in the folder at the beginning brz H: \ 2 Normandy V4 \ Mod Tools \ RezExplode \ exploded \ a ...

compare to the following ones in copy or with a changed name
german_skin 1 2 3.bmp
american_skin 1 2 3.bmp
canadian-soldier-skin
polish-soldier-skin
uk-soldier-skin
locate in the folder H: \ 2 Normandy V4 \ Mod Tools \ RezExplode \ exploded \ Normandy v200 \ skins
this is only an example, and I am sure other files are also irrelevant about, helmets, uniforms, and other files ... and can be erased without danger to launch the game, which may save us a few seconds at the launch of the game, it remains to be seen which ones ?
 
I had thought in the past, to choose the most suitable mods of CMMODs, and to replace the precious bmp wav files ... and thus form my own brz files, but this work is a titanic work, especially since taking only the last modifications are not enough, for example using only the last modification Normandy last patch is not enough, because one or two files will be necessary to launch the game, located in directories a, b, or normandy v100,101, .. or the slightest error is fatal for the launch of the game, and I therefore abandoned the creation of my own brz files.

But I think about it again and one day by making a copy of my original CMBN, I will manage to have my brz with the mods already included, and therefore save loading time by always having other novelties in my precious z folder.
 
for info another similar bulkrenameutility software is as follows

Advanced Renamer I think a bit easier to use.
 
just saying

Well... many of us have been faithfully supporting BF as they told us when CM2 was released that the plan was to work back to Early War.  We're disappointed that process seems to have been abandoned - apparently BF doesn't consider it profitable enuff as the main US market simply wants to play US forces beating up on other nationalities.  Ditto re Afrika Korps - even tho' we already have xnt desert terrain in CMSF.  However, it seems that Afrika Korps games and some Early War are staples of most cardboard wargame developers.  So, this prejudice against Early War (incl AK) could be merely a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Right now we have Koh leading the heroic work to produce both AK and EW mods.  When CMBN was released, some scenarios were produced that simulated East Front.  So, if the demand is there, you never know...
 

Oh no...      Olek was doing some really interesting high quality work.   But, yeah... one often has to have a pretty thick skin dealing with certain people on the forums.
