Battlefront is now Slitherine ×

I had purchased most of the other titles on launch with two exceptions; CMFI and CMRT. After the launch of R2V i grabbed the full FI collection. However i waffled of CMRT, eastern front air battles are my happy place but the titanic ground struggle is almost overwhelming. Yesterday was my birthday so i decided it was finally time.....i am installing CMRT plus F&R as i type.

If you want RT to give you a real big 'Ostfront' birthday present, track down the former demo scenario 'Monster Mash'.

Doesn't matter which side you play, it's epic!  B)

PS - If you can't find it, ping me a PM, I'll send it to you.

in the process of renaming or pruning the various RT* mods... so that they work with F&R.

What is the difference with the base game and F&R which prevents some mods to work properly? I suppose it isn't the deep snow and freezing cold in F&R which is causing the problems.

Well the original SS mods actually changed normal Heer troops in RT... so they needed to be renamed to work on the newly available SS troops. I

Aris's vehicles came with a load of decal options which, unfortunately, have to be "pruned" or else they will interfere with the snow & whitewash textures (this was an issue noted by @kohlenklau when he first made a [snow] tag for RT*).

For terrain, I've gone with @SeinfeldRules various seasonal terrains but they too needed tweaking (conflicts with ramblers tree mods & Xtall Yellow grass doodads took me awhile to figure out).

It also too me awhile to figure out how to activate different sounds, backgrounds ( @umlaut's ruined cityscape) & terrain for fighting in Berlin.

 

*I've also changed all those Winter mod scenarios to an appropriate time of year.

One of my ongoing side projects (aimed at the new influx of Steam Players) is to host an 'All in One' for every CM game here... I suspect my initial CMRT pack will be "ready" in a few days.

👍 fantastic, sometimes it's nice when someone's done all the work for you ... what a treasure!

Gotta say im pretty pumped for that also. Generally if i have to choose between playing and mod hunting with the time available playing wins every time. 

I had 10hr days fri-sun but tomorrow I'm off so you all know what I'll be up to lol.

Seems to be a lot of work. Maybe upload it all when you're finished to save other people from having to do it themselves?
