If you own CMBN Market Garden you can also grab the "jpz-iv-70-early" model from "normandy v210 market garden b.brz" and just drop it in the Z folder for FB to fix it.

Good tip to repair the optics!

 

Unfortunately mounted infantry then vanish in the tank. Probably because the vehicles in normandy can't be mounted by infantry...

Link to a fixed version of the JPzIV 70 V (early) >>>        Fixed model download mediafire 652kb

This is the model file found in the 2.03 patch, I just fixed the texture names inside the .mdr. Only the main lod (highest level of detail) included.

Also the JPzIV early had the same problem its mudguards, so fixed that too.

Lol, didn't think of that.

Either way, trying to fix CM is a good way to learn how to use Blender. It's how you repair these kinds of things that cannot be fixed with simply switching textures or models around.

CMFB used to have 2 versions of the Hetzer, named "Hetzer" and "Hetzer (late)", I can now only find the late version.

Which formation is the original in? It still appears in the mission A War Without Mercy.btt and you can also see it listed in the manual and it must have been available once as it appears in the custom vehicle dealerships mission.

But now it seems it's no longer available in the QB or editor, another casualty of the TOE streamlining efforts?

Where is the Lynx now? I can't seem to find it in any formation at any date. Manual says the Pz Aufkl. Btl has it, but I don't see it, or as an option. I can't see it in the scenario editor as a single vehicle either.

If anyone knows where to find it please let me know. 

It's still in the game files, the manual and it appears in the Meijel Mayhem scenario.

Hope it's not another victim.

Pz.II Ausf L Luchs is (my favourite little tank) and massively over represented in CM.....Only 100 were ever made. 

They equipped the recon battalions of only two panzer divizions, 4th & 9th.....That represents about half of the total production.

Other than that they were as rare as rocking-horse poop, scattered around German units in tiny numbers (IIRC 116 Panzer Division had a few and consequently there are captured examples at Bovington & Saumur):

Ok, so in the Meijel Mayhem mission, the unit that is equipped with the Lynx is the 1st Company Recon Tank of the Armored Pz Aufkl. Battalion. The option for recon tanks is no longer available???

The Pz Aufkl Batt 44 for German Army or SS still has the 1st Co as Pz IIL's for me and they show up as single vehicles too.

Date was default.

Yeah, I wasn't patched up to 2.03 on my laptop for some reason, I think cause I wanted the FO's back. My rig is 2.03 and they are there, and I found the Marder I too, still can't find the early Hetzer though. So ignore my comments in the Lynx, it was missing in 2.02 though they obviously put it back in.

 I've come across a few TOE issues in the recent patches. For what it's worth, I put all those remaining in 2.03 into a list - in the hope they get noticed and fixed one day...

Quick Battle TOE Issues:

Infantry tab:
2 x Identical Wehrmacht Fusilier Companies (duplicate formation?)
2 x Identical Wehrmacht Fortress MG Battalion (duplicate formation?)
2 x Identical Wehrmacht Panzerschreck Company (duplicate formation?)

Specialist Teams Wehrmacht Forward Observer - Missing
Specialist Teams Wehrmacht Flamethrower Team - Missing
Specialist Teams Waffen SS Forward Observer - Missing
Specialist Teams Waffen SS Flamethrower Team - Missing

Armored Infantry tab:
Specialist Teams Waffen SS Forward Observer - Missing
Specialist Teams Waffen SS Flamethrower Team - Missing

SS Panzergrenadier Battalion 44A: - The option to dismount platoons results in squads in Wehrmacht uniforms. Reported this 2 years ago, still present in 2.03.  Further details: http://community.battlefront.com/topic/134648-waffen-soldiers-in-heer-uniforms/

Armor tab:
Panzerjager Battalion 44 - Jagdpanzer selection gives only Hetzers, no models of JgPzIV available.
This appears to be a different formation to the Panzerjager Battalion 44 in the Scenario Editor TOE with different options.

Hetzer (early) - seems to be unavailable in any formation or as single vehicle

***************************************************************************************************************
Scenario Editor TOE Issues:

Infantry tab:
Specialist Teams Wehrmacht Forward Observer - Missing
Specialist Teams Wehrmacht Flamethrower Team - Missing
Specialist Teams Waffen SS Forward Observer - Missing

On the US tables:

Armored Infantry tab:

Specialist Teams - Airborne 57mm AT Gun - an Airborne unit present in Armored Infantry tab? Wears standard US army uniforms - so just the name is wrong?

 

 

Specialist Teams - Can't find any specialist M1917 teams in Scenario Editor or QB purchase screen.

Apparently the Bovington Luchs was assigned to 9th Pz.Div who were still using them in Normandy.....I thought they'd already lost all their Luchs in the east:

Tried on my work computer now, same result. "The link you are trying to access does not exist." along with a button to go "back to sign in".

Am I supposed to log in to download the patch? I tried the login button on the page https://battlefront.sharefile.com/ but I don't seem to have credentials there. At least my main battlefront account credentials don't work.

Without having to login, I can click through to the patches:

https://battlefront.sharefile.com/share/view/s3710ed4a8a654bd2ad39f3e8a5a46b2a/fo3da7e1-e496-45bd-91c1-9474d1dbe5b7

This is the screen with PC and Mac version and a Read me file.  I can then click on the PC version and seconds later it has downloaded.  If it's not working for you perhaps open a Help ticket, or perhaps @BFCElvis can advise directly here.
