sinclair1 Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Hello everyone, in all these years of CM no one has ever thought of producing mods of the "Beutepanzer" (Vehicles captured by the Germans), yet they have participated in many campaigns and battles on all fronts and in many units of the Wermacht, SS and not only in the course of the Second World War. In the case of our CM games : CMRT ( T-34/76 ED 85,SU-85,and many others) CMFB/CMBN (many types of M4 Sherman Usa&UK, M8,etc) CMFI all vehicles captured by the Germans after Operation Achse Semoventi 75/18 and 47/32,Autoblinda AB41etc. In the CM community there are many amazing and very good modders, so what if some of them want to give it a try? I have a lot of material on this topic, however easily available on the net. Cheers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Fusselpulli Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 The Problem here is the crew. Even if you change the vehicle, the crew will still be the same as if the vehicle was on it's correct side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinclair1 Posted January 26, 2023 Author Share Posted January 26, 2023 Yes true, unfortunately the creators of CM have not thought of allowing this function, but in any case there are some scenarios in CM that involve the use of enemy vehicles 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empahsis on thought of and tried but not claiming it was satisfactorily accomplished https://community.battlefront.com/topic/118887-operation-hercules-the-invasion-of-malta-wip/#comment-1595700 From 7 years ago...my ambitions always outraced my abilities.

kohlenklau Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 (edited) My opinion: for mdr swapping, you can go 2 ways which have their own + and -. The @Suchy system is you go ahead and bring in the actual opposite side's weapon. Think of a water-cooled HMG being used by modded Hungarians in CMRT. Use the editor side switch trick to purchase it and bring it with a Soviet guards crew onto the axis side. Then you do get the actual performance of the weapon. You can use [guards] modtag to maybe get their uniforms looking like Hungarians. You then must decide to not worry to hear a little Russian. The shell and host system is where you get the visual appearance of a beutepanzer T-34 over the actual internal workings of the PzIV. In this case you have a German crew and all is well there BUT you must accept the performance of the gun/turret rotation/ammo choices/etc. is slightly askew. EDITORIAL: Many modders burn the midnight oil and put in so much labour of love. We're hamstrung. Think @NPye. But the actual BFC person with the keys to make awesome things happen seems to me to turn off the lights promptly at 5pm and head home. I suspect it is worse than that, as I think his BFC related efforts are extremely tight on an annual basis and he has a main job. He must be nearing age 65 to claim social security and maybe retire from that "main job" and might delve more into CM coding and new content for CMX3. My fantasy. Best wishes to him. This is not personal. Edited January 27, 2023 by kohlenklau 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
