    hey Frenchy, did you ever solve the missing headsets issue?

    I have a similar issue with Soviets now in early war model M35 uniforms. No gear!

    The headsets are linked to the uniform, as is the gear. Nothing much we can do against the headset issue, for the gear you need to use uniform models from the same faction for it to keep showing up.

    I just chose to accept it and let them not wear headsets. The parkas look cool enough.

    Good tip to repair the optics!

     

    Unfortunately mounted infantry then vanish in the tank. Probably because the vehicles in normandy can't be mounted by infantry...

    Lol, didn't think of that.

    Either way, trying to fix CM is a good way to learn how to use Blender. It's how you repair these kinds of things that cannot be fixed with simply switching textures or models around.

    That sounds like the Germans in late war...  so that justifies em nicely.  :)   Lookin good Jace11!

     

    Not really. Me and Lucky Strike have seen our share of Waffen-SS pictures and it's practically impossible to find any peadot on helmets or even any kind of headgear like field caps (if you do find something that looks similar, it's probably plane tree camo). I have seen Heer soldiers wearing peadot trousers in 1945 though, as well as an officer with a peadot tunic with Heer insignia sewed onto it, and a probable picture of an SS Fallschirmjaeger smock in peadot.

    Just spraying the helmet with camo paint seems more practical than gathering damaged uniforms and salvaging the material. It would also be simpler to do it from a zeltbahn, which was never made in peadot either. I have rarely seen SS with improvised helmet covers in the first place, since they would usually be issued one.

    Either way, it's your mod, you did a good job on it and I don't really care if you use it. I just wanted to make people aware of the fact. I don't deny that some insane person may have done it and it was captured in an either currently unaccessible photograph, or one I haven't seen yet either.

    The Germans had long given up daylight divebombing attacks with Ju 87s by 1944.

    That's something a lot of people seem to not know about. The early-war divebombing mania sputtered out around 1943 in favor of the faster Fw 190 which became Germany's ubiquitous fighter-bomber.
