laurent 22 reacted to Andrew Kulin in The first Battle for Normandy Tournament is ready for signups.
I think you have it. I am not going to catch you.
I expect to end up with 800 points as German in my last game with my opponent as with 1 minute left I have units on the main intersection, and I don't think he can rush any forces there in time from where he is presently at (but not sure of that of course), and I am not sure where my side is with the less than 30% casualties, and I am certainly not at >70% US casualties. And neither of us control Favre though he should be able to move something onto that objective as I don't have the forces there to do so and survive.

laurent 22 got a reaction from sawomi in German snow armored vehicles
SDKFZ 16 Flame snowy.
The body and interior of the Sdkfz 251-16 are those of the SKfz 251-1D. So I imported Umlaut's excellent work. I only worked on the 2 flamethrowers and their pipes.

I believe that the German vehicles in the snow file is finished because the rest of the vehicles already have their textures. Not all vehicles appear in FI in winter. I'm going to check BF and RT to see if there are any missing but I think not. Importing textures from other titles into FI is a bit boring because you have to look for them one by one in the data folders (for example all SPW, Grid, Hummel etc...). I'll do that soon to put them in a file at Bootie's.

laurent 22 got a reaction from Vacillator in German snow armored vehicles
Thank you 🙂
Yes my mods are already tagged with [snow]. I always check in FI that they appear on a map with snow, that's why they are always accompanied by a screenshot, and I check that there is no conflict between them (especially with the wheels). I still have the Sdkfkz16 flamethrower to do. For other vehicles, just import the bmp from RT or FB, and sometimes you have to rename them because they are only in [white washed] like the Stug IV above, which did not appear with snow conditions (if you also want the [white washed] tag you can simply duplicate them to rename them). I'll put it all in a pack and drop it on the Bootie website.

Yes, I think the 'games from each side at once' is either misunderstood or ignored. But if so it needs to be enforced?
Anyway @7thGalaxy has been here just a few hours ago.

laurent 22 reacted to kohlenklau in CMFI CMAK2 AFRIKA MODS EXPLOSION
Chris gets first blood. A scout car with a .50 cal pegged one of my Sahariana AT wagon guys.
He is dropping smoke near the objective. Perhaps he has a Fast Group enroute...some Bren carriers or jeeps maybe?
My assault group disembarks from the Fiats...in a defilade position.
That one officer looks like he maybe dropped his St Christopher medal?
Sunhelmets look so great. @boygarvin 's uniforms are so awesome. aka pitbull. Thanks buddy.

laurent 22 reacted to MHW in CMSF as a tool for simulating USMC squad assaults
Brendan McBreen, a retired USMC Lieutenant Colonel, ran 300 squad assaults in CMSF and drew insights from them. McBreen, who has 25 years of service as an infantry officer, found that the service's manuals and training materials give only vague and inadequate guidance about how to conduct a squad assault. He used CMSF to run a series of tests, matching a rifle squad against different defenders, and tallied up the results.
Then he wrote up his findings. The whole series of seven articles appears over on the Tactical Notebook, a Substack run by Bruce Ivar Gudmundsson, a historian in Quantico.
Abstract Part I Part II Part III (test setup within CMSF) Part IV Part V (tactical insights) Part VI (recommendations) Among McBreen's recommendations: "train with simulations" and "use simulations to improve our manuals."

laurent 22 reacted to kohlenklau in TSD III, TPG II & The CM Mod Warehouse Update area.
@Scipio
Not here since late 2021 it says.
Hi Scipio, FYI, I updated your CMMODS no tracer mod since engine 4 changed tracer filenames for some or maybe all of the titles. I have as subfolders to eliminate green, red, orange or white tracers.
EDIT: for my selfish purposes I have only tested in latest engine and all modules versions of CMFI and CMRT. So, unknown for other titles.
Anybody wants it, here it is down below. @Bootie Hi sir, I guess update that CMMODS file - if you so desire among your busy tasks...
https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/qi5w4d2b165y5vfi2i9rc/h?rlkey=ag818pl6syloosml8drpwroqp&dl=0
Coming soon I hope to mod the tracers to chartreuse, salmon, periwinkle and lavender. j/k
