This is really very informative and the possibilities are enormous, I just watched the video quickly, and I am convinced that we will be able to do very beautiful things, but also very precise on the scale the system of layers are I think very useful, if only CM could introduce some layers in the game we can than prepare some movements...
Very interresting I remain attentive to your progress in this area thank you to share it ...

A good URL think it is a tremendous aid for scenario map makers. Select any area zoom with your mouse wheel and the maps becomes topographic, however numbers are small.

Nice!
And that reminds me, I was going to take a looksee at Vein's British and Commonwealth helmets and uniforms as recommended by @Aragorn2002.
They are indeed splendid ... waiting in the long grass ...

 
 

So, what is it with you guys who complain that there aren’t enough bones or information given out, but when Steve and Elvis are all over it with posting after posting, with eye candy and explanations what’s going on(!) and yet you complain about the release being “late”?  
Sorry, I just don’t get it (and it is exactly the main reason BFC has given for not giving us deadlines). Complaining about one or the other I understand, but both??
 
Forgot to add: Rant Over, and I love all yuose guys anyways!
 

Some guys with theirs strong's horses !
 

 
 

This poor PzIV (/s) gets hit by two tanks but shot at by three plus a PIAT. I think all four of them will claim credit for the kill. When I first watched I was convinced it was the infantry that scored the big hit but I was wrong.

Taking careful aim and fire (note PIAT round near the shadow in front of the flowers)...

Tank round

Boom

Note the PIAT round now behind the enemy tank

Which then blows up behind the enemy tank

al placer !

I got the Greek voice files! Merci JM 👍

Early stage of some testing. Young grenadiers of ID "Scharnhorst" fighting in the outskirts of Beelitz, facing heavy Soviet Tanks for the first time.

Going through these old threads and seeing the flow of people with interest in something like CMFI Afrika mini-mod really gives me a good spirit for the future. Because we are on our own for the early war years.

@jamxo made me this. thank you sir! Neck deep in research on a campaign I never have explored in detail. Several inspirations have gripped me for creating 2 new scenarios along with some new mods. An advisory committee is overseeing development of the scenarios, <<"more cowbell!">>... Thank you Jon.
@mjkerner is going through his entire collection of FJ uniforms to coalesce the most "Crete-esian" flavored images for this mini-mod. Thank you Mark. I will also re-release an older Crete scenario (playable just for H2H) written by boardgame developer @Broadsword56. Thank you Gina.
 

Me too...
 music is a must, music is passion, music is life, music transform our mind soft of hard, in a smile and make us happy every time !
 
Nothing to say when I could  +1 +1 +1 
 
I could go with ...Stairway to  Heaven or Baby I gonna leave you... but I choose this one !
 
 
 

Glad to see this thread still rocking out....
 
 
 

So, over in the CMRT F&R thread, we had BFC Steve show up a few times to make posts. In the quoted section above, we see the important statement from BFC that they will never get to do Crete. That caught my eye and I tried for the last few days to organize a behind the scenes project. EDIT: I expected more of a response but can only blame myself, maybe I came across odd or a but flippant. I did address a very respected person as NZ Dude! Sorry again sir...I do have 2 forumites kicking in some assistance. Thank you guys. Onward and upward!
So, I am gearing up something for the 80th Anniversary of the Crete campaign. I got some good stuff brewing in my head! At least 2 small scenarios. One from the FJ perspective. 1 from the 2NZ division perspective. Some cool old seldom seen mods and some really cool new mods.

BLENDER TEST IDIOT'S LOG:
4/11/2021
I am working to improve @JM Stuff's Romanian M39 helmet. It would be nice if some of the helmets in the game could show the old King Carol "medallion"...I figured out that I have to do the unwrap of the model in a different way versus the way the German helmet was unwrapped. I had to designate what edges were "seams" for the unwrapping of the model. Then you do the artwork to have the unwrapped pieces "uv islands" they are called, be in the right spots. The uv islands can be moved around to make better sense on the bmp image, they can be scaled and rotated also. There must be another Blender command that I do not know so I can take the uv islands and put them along the edge of the bmp...


It is so blurry and I am unsure why. I will take the image and try to redo it EXTERNAL from Blender and then reload. Then try it in the game...

I was cleaning out the old hard drive and found this thing I had made back in March 2015. An odd concept but I hope you enjoy it.
It is a special prestaged saved game file scenario. You download it and put it in your saved games folder.
NOTE: Today I have Game Engine 3, version 3.11. So I guess I need to buy the upgrade and maybe DL some patches. I will ASAP...
DOWNLOAD LINK ---->>> CMBN MG Bridge over the River Dommel
Here is the readme...
This is a Prestaged Saved File Battle as axis against the British AI.
Put it in your saved games folder.
Open it and down in "menus" click on and read the briefing very carefully.
The scenario starts for you at 0635. Track the time carefully. Read the briefing.
Burke arrives at 0645. Guyver arives at 0655. The scenario ends somewhere between 0700-0705.
One rule not covered in the briefing: DO NOT (D-O N-O-T!!) TOUCH OR USE OR CHANGE ANY OFF-MAP ARTILLERY/MORTARS.
HAVE FUN!
Read the briefing!
 

You're a busy man, JM!

Lot of armies were using the German helmets after the ww2 (This is why we will have lot of possibilities to created lot of mods using CMCW and ww2 modules)😎😁
Also awaiting the famous reminding  DDR helmets for my future Yougoslavia mods 80' conflicts...🙂
