Erwin Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 This is probably the feature I most appreciate about CM2... the sense that one is in, or making one's own WW2 movie/experience. The graphics, esp when well-modded are very photogenic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradley Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 It is purdy, aint it Indeed, the graphics married with what is "under the hood" gives a lot of bang for the buck, to say the least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tashtego Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 3j2m7, My graphics card is an AMD Radeon HD 6670 1 GB. It's about 2 1/2 years old. When it was new it was just run of the mill. Nothing special. The card has color saturation controls, but I don't use them. I have used Paint.net(FREE). It has controls to desaturate, sharpen, and much more. Everything you need to make a good pic. Post some, let's see what they look like. You might be the CMBN Robert Capa. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EZ Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Hello, Looks like a (Opel hybrid) hope it works out for you. When I did that mod I was hoping to get some coloring like you see in these Opel pictures. http://vincesgallery.smugmug.com/History/Opel-Blitz-Camo/i-t9gWPRS/A but it did not work out. The lighting in this game is unforgiving. By the way, if you’re interested I put another version of that King Tiger up. Planned on doing some zimmerit chipping and some other stuff but I will wait to see if that model gets updated. (Turret skin is missing all the Periscope view ports and gun is missing inside bore graphic etc. etc.). So at some point it will change. Good Luck Later ez 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 One question I had re these vehicles used in re-enactmemnts is that the camo is always beautifully sprayed on. Did they do that in WW2, or was it a crude paintbrush job? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umlaut Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Hi Erwin This should answer your question - at least partially (can´t say if they always did it like that): http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ef/Bundesarchiv_Bild_101I-721-0398-21A%2C_Frankreich%2C_Panzer_VI_%28Tiger_II%2C_K%C3%B6nigstiger%29.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/15/Bundesarchiv_Bild_101I-721-0398-17A%2C_Frankreich%2C_Panzer_VI_%28Tiger_II%2C_K%C3%B6nigstiger%29.jpg These pics are also in my Force Specific Backgrounds (http://cmmods.greenasjade.net/mods/4866/details) for CMBN, by the way 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flying Penguin Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 One question I had re these vehicles used in re-enactmemnts is that the camo is always beautifully sprayed on. Did they do that in WW2, or was it a crude paintbrush job? Hi Erwin This should answer your question - at least partially (can´t say if they always did it like that): I think the proper caveat is "unless they were desperate". The only tanks I've seen that look like they've seen the business end of a paint brush seem to be very late war types rather than "summer of '44". The (few) exceptions tend to stand out, like this JadgTiger that appears* to have had the lighter colour brushed on in a hurry. *See the paint smear by the bow machine gun which appears to have been painted with a quick right to left stroke (hence the part circle of darker colour showing through), the general sloppiness, the lack of the characteristic colour blending which would denote spray gun work etc. Clearly without a photo of the painting process we can never "prove" it was brush painted, but it doesn't look like a neat or even a sloppy spray gun paint. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schwerpunktgrenadier Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 That King Tiger looks very sad to me. Haha! Perhaps, there is scope for a children's TV show a bit like Thomas the Tank Engine but with various tanks from the Third Reich. Obviously, the above Tiger is Timothy the depressed Tiger. He's not keen on all this killing and wishes for a better more peaceful world - that's why he's so sad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking he's depressed because except for a Sherman or two, he's missed out on all that killing. He IS a Jagd-Tiger after all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
