NPye Posted February 25, 2022 Author Share Posted February 25, 2022 You Can, You only need 1 window or door on each facing to allow the troops to fire from all sides, some are for artistic purposes were I know there wont be much fighting. I have built a replica of of Goering air ministry (which stands today) and the windows work and there are entrances in certain parts of the buildings all blocks are interlinked from inside, if you look at big office blocks they don't have a door for each section, they deliberately design them so visitors and staff can only enter via certain doors ie receptions, then I have added doors at the back...I have also replicated the New Chancellory in the same manor windows work but you have to enter in the entrances. This is how the real buildings work take a look at your local office blocks, as for the Reichstag it had been a ruin since 1933 and was boarded up but i have added a few doors and again all linked up internally, as for the rest of the buildings they are 90% able to enter and fire from all levels through windows... There are some where I deliberately not added doors ie During Operation Herbetus the red soldiers in the Commissars building bricked themselves in, you have to use engineers to blow the walls to get in, same for Drajon during the German push to the landing area in Stalingrad. So please unless you have downloaded the Stalingrad Mod and seen these issues (if so report them to me) and ill fix if broken????? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glubokii Boy Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 If the actuall wall only has ONE window will the troops not bunch up around that one window instead of using several windows as is usual ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No the game engine has been built like that, if one window on each facing the troops can fire from any where on that facing...haven't you noticed they fire through walls etc when in a building that has all the windows????? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes...I guess that i have noticed that to some degree but i have always been under the understanding that the individual windows in buildings indeed made a difference. The men seems to align to the windows pretty well though. A german squad on the bottom floor with one window in what i would call 'a bunch'... A germans squad on the second floor with multiple windows Using a full squad on the same floor may not be all that common...Here is one squad split into two...one section on each floor. Bottom floor has 1 window top flooor has several. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I make these scenarios and buildings to try and get a more immersive game, the default buildings are well below the mark, ie CMFR the Brandenburg Gaye is a bridge a look nothing like the real thing, for me this is unacceptable so I made a version the gate, its not brilliant but the design limitations are huge in this game???? So please just don't use the mod if this affects you so much. I totally understand. Cheers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NPye Posted June 9, 2022 Author Share Posted June 9, 2022 I'm trying to produce a campaign for Berlin, i'm building the ,maps and have completely updated and redesigned the mod buildings so now all buildings can be entered and fired from, I found a new solution to do this and it seems to work well, I made a template of where the windows appear on the mod builds, then i either use the default windows with my graphics in them rather tan the other way round, also if cut out I also make a window that fits the space so I can use either, also i have copied the window default window space on the BMP them pasted into the window files, this works really well especially when the window is space is black so as long as the window fits all i have to do is convert the default window into black or dark grey and they hardly notice on the bmp, so this gives the impression of having the glass and frame completely gone and and looks bombed out which is the look I have always tried to achieve before. If anyone with campaign experience want's to join with me and build an amazing campaign then DM e. I've chose a campaign as this will eliminate any need for my complete collection of modded items which is huge. Cheers for viewing and would love to see what you think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomm Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 This looks incredible, but why do you animate screenshots instead of showing actual video footage, including fighting? Best regards Thomm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vacillator Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Nigel, looking very good if a little brutal for those poor panzer crews.

quakerparrot67 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 npye, these are really beautiful, the alexandrplatz map is beyond astounding. i think i found the aprox. location of a murder from one of the bernie gunter novels in one of your stills. i really really look forward to being able to download and play this campaign , if you are making it available. my only question is, how well is this going to run on my laptop? it's a new acer nitro 5 gaming laptop, and it mostly runs the game well, tho large scenarios are iffy. guess there's only one way to find out, right? thanks you for taking the time and effort to make this- it really looks to take the immersion up a few big notches. cheers, rob 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not huge maps but there alot of extras and flavour objects on all maps which add to the size. Cheers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vacillator Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Looks great Nigel, particualry the 'populated' areas with wrecks etc. I'm sure the music will go down well in certain quarters...

NPye Posted June 27, 2022 Author Share Posted June 27, 2022 LOL I made that music in Garageband...no copyright issues on youtube as i own it. I haven't made the battles yet but this map I could give you, good for QB but only if you have a big dropbox so i can add all the mods? My dropbox is nearly full and its quite a few gigs worth of mods? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
