John Kettler Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 MikeyD, They're still finding Red Devils (thrown and also fired from the Brixia, I believe) in North Africa--still live! As for fava beans, don't forget the Chianti! Mord, With you on that! I've seen AFV models in competitions that didn't look anywhere nearly as good. Bravo, Marco! That trench looks awfully shallow to me. Regards, John Kettler 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZPB II Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 John Kettler, the trench is shallow due to technical limitations. The trench is placed above the ground so it doesn't deform the terrain mesh. Thus it cannot be made very deep or it would look extremely out of place and it would also require a new set of infantry animations. It makes the game run a lot faster and simplifies the FOW aspect of things. What I hope is that trenches and foxholes incur a hidden abstracted cover bonus, since the pixeltruppen expose far more of their vulnerable fleshy bits than is advisable due to the animations. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
para Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Did CMFI give you Italian Cypress trees (you know, the ones like this): Next to vineyards, it's probably the most essential foliage/veg object for a proper Mediterranean environment (more than cactuses or palm trees, and for olive trees the "D" tree would be fine already). Isn't that the road to Maximus Decimus Meridius farm? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holman Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 What I hope is that trenches and foxholes incur a hidden abstracted cover bonus, since the pixeltruppen expose far more of their vulnerable fleshy bits than is advisable due to the animations. I believe a bonus is applied. A kneeling shooter in the open will take a hit long before a kneeling shooter in a foxhole or trench. This is true even though they're the same number of pixels high. I've machine-gunned cowering troops in foxholes for 10 turns or more, only to see later that I did them no harm while they were crouching down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 I do love Google Here's what I found on how they pack the balls for various French 37mm canister rounds. I don't think I've ever seen any similar info for the US 37mm canister round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadrach Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 LOL very nice first post, excellent shots - setting the bar kind of high. Let's just say I'm a long-time lurker CMFI is really very photogenic, but I had to struggle with avoiding ugly shadows. Hopefully the patch will fix these And there should be a key to just turn off all UI elements... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erwin Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I have to hand it to BF... The "out of the box" graphics are better than what I saw when CMBN came out. I still think the vehicles are too clean and unworn, but the uniforms are pretty good - esp the Germans and their helmets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
