Need help to make a decision for M60 texture


Recommended Posts

Hi Hetzi,

here are some photos I took of the M60A1 at Tankfest 2019, in Bovington, Dorset which may be of interest in your quest for the correct colour scheme.  I can't swear that the scheme is 100% accurate, but I know the museum goes to a lot of effort to preserve their vehicles in as authentic a condition as possible.

Note - the M60 really is a lot bigger than a Churchill tank... ;)

Hi Eric

Woow! Thanks for the cool pics. Awesome!

The colour scheme must not be "historically correct" for me. (I know, that's almost a no go in the BF forums) 😁

It just has to look good (but not totally wrong) for me. This is something I like a lot in WW2 camos, they were often "handmade" by the Crew. (At least on the German side.. afaik)

I have started a new Topic in the Mod section. New Files will be linked there.

Glad you like the photos

Here's a few more from an earlier - and dustier - Tankfest from 2013 (the theme of which, was the Cold War!). Includes the same M60A1 as above, plus an M60A3:

When can I get one of these in the game? 😁👍

Even in 1989 when I started my last tour in Germany there were some Bradleys still painted in plain green camo. When I first arrived my unit was just turning in their plain green M2s for forest camouflaged M2A2s. So the green was around for a long time.

All Vehicles are now done in all variants. 🙂

If someone has installed an older version of the mod, please replace it with this one. All textures have been revised to give them a more uniform image.

Note: For example, if someone wants to use Variant 2 as a "winter / autumn texture", he has to replace all textures with  "...[cold].bmp", with the texture "...[cold].bmp" from the variant 2. Not sure if that works, but i think you can add the [cold] to vehicle-textures that don't have a cold texture file, in order to obtain some uniformity. (not tested)

I will always link the latest version of the mod files in my signature, because unfortunately you cannot edit the posts or links here. 😕

The textures for the M2 Bradley and M1 Abrams are retextured from @dpabrams
