LukeFF Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 This photo was taken 8 June 1944 by a U.S. Army Signal Corps photographer in a French village at St. Marcouf, near Utah Beach, France, part of the historic D-Day invasion that began only two days earlier. It shows a group of 101st Airborne paratroopers at an assembly point. A captured German small tracked vehicle is in the foreground. 101st Airborne insignia there for all the world to see. Troops of US 101st Airborne Division with members of Dutch resistance at the Eindhoven cathedral, the Netherlands, Sep 1944 Etc., etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkerner Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Yup, and even in some loading screens (although I may be thinking of sdp's Italian Mod loading screens) there are several US division patches obviously "scratched out" (some somke not completely) by censors. The bottom pic, GI on right, the censor has circled it with the notation "out". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambler Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 Does anyone here have a Bren, or a Bren parts kit? If so, can you take a pic of the buttplate? Looking for a straight on shot of this style buttplate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erwin Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Re insignia the point I am trying to make is that they would be subdued. What we see in some pics esp the Brits are bright red patches that would be rather easily seen. I really like the way Aris has been fading the vehicle patches out so that they blend in with the camo a lot better... unless one gets very close. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkerner Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Agreed, the Brit patches are very "new" looking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a better shot of the buttplate on that site I can use for reference if I end up having to do it from scratch. Still hoping I can take the lazy way out and have someone who has access to a Bren take a pic of the plate . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeFF Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Rambler, have you thought about modding the M1919 and M1917? I don't think those have been modded yet by you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hister Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I hope that awful PIAT color gets "fixed" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rambler Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 Rambler, have you thought about modding the M1919 and M1917? I don't think those have been modded yet by you. Yeah, I didn't do the 17 or the 19 in the last go around. I didn't really notice anything I wanted to mod on the textures back then. I might take a look at them again for this version since I'm seriously considering tweaking some of the US/German weapons I already did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambler Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 Well, since I can't edit my post above anymore, I'll just make a new one for a weekly update. A new Vickers (this one's for you Waycool ) from the ground up. Long way to go, but it's starting to take shape: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hister Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Nope, he will release all weapons when they are done at the same time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'll definitely get with you for some shots when I reach that point. @Erwin - Fuser did that PIAT, so you'll have to ask him if he'll release it . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hister Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Oh so it's Fuser's work - I haven't payed attention to who posted that, was sure it was you - my bad! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Panzer Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Rambler: I'm curious how this mod is coming along - might we see these files soon or is there a lot of work remaining? Your small arms textures for the base game are fantastic and it would be great to see the Commonwealth forces get up to speed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambler Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 Hey Peter, tbh it hasn't progressed since the last screen I posted. Work has been killer lately, and I've been travelling as well. Things should lighten up in the next couple of weeks, and I'll be able to get back to it. As it stands, I'm 80% done with the CW stuff, and I will probably revisit some textures from my previous release. Don't know when I'll release it, but I can guarantee it will get done . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
