Warts 'n' all Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Alex just a reminder it is "English" not english. In the meantime what the **** does "Eiweh" mean? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Sadly the BFC puritans stole my four letter word, now how is that for irony? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt Joch Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) Hi, just checked again, [fielddivision] is a mod tag linked to ‘LW uniform variant”. No idea when it kicks in though. Edited October 12, 2020 by Sgt Joch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the meantime what the **** does "Eiweh" mean? You sounds like my english-teacher decades ago "Eiweh": I think you can roughly translate it with "Oh dear!" or "Oh my gosh!" (but both with a little pain) or (if I can believe the transalte side Leo): "Alack (??? never heard this one???)" To the textures: I asume, then these textures are leftovers from someone's experiments... Greetings, Alex 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 @waffelmann Oh, thanks for the explanation. Very few people say "alack" nowadays, perhaps it is time for a revival. At the moment when things go wrong when I'm playing as the Germans my expletive of choice is "Unter den bloody Linden", but it might get replaced by "Eiweh". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waffelmann Posted October 12, 2020 Author Share Posted October 12, 2020 Lol...I think it is more common to say "oh weh". "Eiweh" is more a personally variation... I have to admit I never heard "Unter den bloody Linden"... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anonymous_Jonze Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 This is kind of the same deal as the Soviet Calvary Squadron uniforms in Red Thunder. There are textures marked "[cavalry]" but you can't set their appearance as such. Suppose it's for a scenario but it seems odd to do that work for nothing! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Squarehead Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Maybe make a test scenario with the 'cavalry' tag? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waffelmann Posted October 16, 2020 Author Share Posted October 16, 2020 Ah...there I can help . I remember, that in the creation process respectivly at the end someone said (maybe @ChrisND?), that the cavalry should be implemtend with a different texture. The change didn't managed to get in. It was hoped that it get in maybe later but I think it is forgotten... Greetings, alex 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mudhugger Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 If you use fielddivision as a mod tag in the summer of 1944 it works. It is a very subtle change, mainly more gray helmets. Most notably a gray helmet with webbing. The same for cavalry in CMRT. A mod tag and the soldiers will wear the blue trousers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coop Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Bringing a bit of an old topic back to life here: I have been messing around with the new RT:FR for a few hours trying to get the [fielddivision] tagged skins to show up in QBs. They do not. I loaded a battle with every month, in every region, and they didn't come up. For ease of identification I tagged EZ's LW Field Division skins with the [fielddivision] tag and left the smod_german_lw_camo / smod_german_lw_m43 files unmodded so therefore EZ's fine skins would show up if [fielddivision] was ever activated. I made a super quick test custom scenario, adding the [fielddivision] mod tag and that worked. So it is clearly the same thing the infamous Soviet [cavalry] tag. What I don't get about this tag is that the tagged skins are identical to the untagged versions... I don't know how feasible this would be, but a radical fix for Battlefront to implement would actually be eliminating the [fielddivision] tag all together and replacing it with something like [LW panzergrenadier] which all the HG skins would be tagged with, and the skins that are currently [fielddivision] could be deleted since they are the same as untagged lw_camo & lw_M43 skins anyways... That way the options would be "mixed camo" (lw_camo_soldier) and "standard" (lw_m43_soldier) for Field Division troops featuring green collar dogs, LW camo smocks, plus mix of LW field blue / heer field grey tunics and "LW panzergrenadier" would be HG Div troops with white collar dogs, and skins with other camos (Italian/SS + some LW) like DougPhresh showed in his post. Something that I will be implementing in my games is that when I want to play Luftwaffe PzGr: in my mod folder I'll just manually switch the smod_german_lw_m43 uniforms with EZ's HG uniforms and select "standard" appearance in the QB editor. Otherwise I'll just be keeping EZ's field division skins as the default in my mod folder. I might also create the tag [LW pzgr] if I find any campaigns/battles (other than Conrath's Counterattack) that feature the HG Division and manually adjust those... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
