Battlefront Repository Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Vin’s arrow unit basesThis mod changes the unit bases to an arrow which makes it much more easier to tell which way units are facing even from higher above while eliminating the majority of the base underneath the unit. This improves the way the units look giving them a much cleaner look while maintaining maximum function of the base. I think many will find these an improvement over the stock bases in function, and attractiveness. They can be used with CMBN, CMFI, and CMSF. There are multiple arrow types as well as other alternate shapes such as a pentagon to choose from. The default set has the bright thick arrow bases. To use different bases just swap the arrow folders out of the default folder. You can only use one base style at a time of green, or yellow, but you can make a new folder for a personal mix & match yellow, and green combo such as thick faded green arrow with thick bright yellow arrow. That is the combo I like best for low light battles. I use the default of bright thick green, and yellow for day battles.Enjoy,Vin More... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Good for CMA as well presumably? BTW: I thought one would only be able to use one arrow variant at a time. How do you use both "thick faded green arrow with thick bright yellow arrow" at the same time? (Or am I misunderstanding.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnart Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 I don't have CMA, but assume they should work fine with it. To use a variant take the folder named "Thick bright arrow" out of the "Vin arrow base default" folder. To make a custom mix create a new folder and call it "Erwin's bases" for example. Copy the green base from the folder "Thick faded arrow" and put it in the custom folder you made "Erwin's bases". Then go to the folder named "Thick bright arrow", and copy the yellow base putting it also in the custom folder you make. Now tou will have folder that contains the thick faded green arrow, and the thick bright yellow arrow. Put your custom folder then in the folder "Vin default arrow base" which contains the red, and dark red bases. Last put the folder"Vin default arrow base" in the "z" folder, and you are good to go. This will give the mix thick FADED green arrow with thick BRIGHT yellow arrow. The key to doing custom mix is to make new folder as I said where you can mix-n-match the different types. You can only use 1 green base type, and 1 yellow base at a time. Hope I explained it clearly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnart Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 This latest update includeds all the experimental shapes I made beside arrow type bases giving the option to use them if one likes. Included are different shapes such as a pentagon shape. Of all I think the thick bright arrow set in the default folder is the best overall. The only difference from this release from the 1st release for this mod is there are more alternate base options available for you guys to check out. Enjoy!
