Indian Troops - can specific faces be allocated to Brit officers or tank crews?


Recommended Posts

Working on a mod for Indian troops & Gurkhas, but wondered whether specific face bmps can be allocated to branches of service or officers? Doesn't appear so.

Hopefully these troops might be covered in later releases but in the meantime here's the wip. No changes to the 3D model so it's texture, name and voice file changes only.

Have been looking at hex-editing the Brit officer M37 3D model to point at a particular facial skin. However, unlike CM:Normandy the relevant lines now refer to "placeholder skin" rather than "uk-skin" or german-skin etc.

This seems to prevent modding these files.

Can an experienced hex-editor or Battlefront shed any light on this change? And whether there's a work-around?

I'm just confirming what you already know. There is no way for faces to be assigned specifically to officers. The game 'dice-rolls' the allocation randomly of the faces to the officers and enlisted. Hex editing examination was unable to uncover a way to specifically allocate a specific face to officers.
