aka_tom_w Posted November 15, 2000 Share Posted November 15, 2000 OK Its HERE! They are Ready, Yes those beautiful Church and building mods are here: use this in your web browser: ftp://cm:cmbo@142.55.231.199//pz_mods/ Use that string EXACTLY its is in the pz_mods Directory on ftp server 142.55.231.199 user name: cm password: cmbo I am a Mac user and I had one little problem with a corrupted file in the full zipped download. The file in question is 330.bmp it may work just fine for you as you find it in the complete zipped download if you have any problems you can go back and download non-zipped and known to be "Not Corrupt" final file 330.bmp Hope that you enjoy them Panzertruppen is happy to share them and would love to hear how much you like them We are in touch and he is happy to let me host them and have me make the announcement here. -tom w [This message has been edited by aka_tom_w (edited 11-14-2000).] [This message has been edited by aka_tom_w (edited 11-14-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzertruppen Posted November 15, 2000 Author Share Posted November 15, 2000 Panzertruppen, those are very well done! But I do have to ask how they will look when using subdued mods? That is how they look the best, at least to me. I use a toned down version of the velvet grass and my own custom tree bases and that is how I designed the mod fit in. The whole mod is supposed to have a gritty, more realistic look than the original buildings. The pristine battlefields generated using the original textures were just way too clean looking. I'm cooking up some ideas of how to make the city textures look just as good. One of the problems of making textures for the big city structures is that each building has only three textures (not counting the roof). Each has a "front," "back," and side. The side texture is flipped and then pasted to the opposite side. I'm sure BTS did this to save RAM, but it does make things difficult. That means you can't have much in the way of unique faces on a building. What I mean is you almost can't make the texture look like two rowhouses - one brick and the other not. If you do that the textures will not align because the "side" texture will get flipped and now the building sides are mismatched. Perhaps BTS will consider changing this in a future patch, then it would be possible to make a lot better textures. Anyway, the rural buildings are available for download. The winter version should be available before much longer. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzertruppen Posted November 15, 2000 Author Share Posted November 15, 2000 Here is a first look at one of the winter building mods. Since all of the original artwork is finished for the rural buildings these shouldn't take too long to complete.</p> </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mord Posted November 15, 2000 Share Posted November 15, 2000 Ok I got it to work! Thanks Guys! Panzertruppen these are unbelievable!! Absolutely gorgeous! One question though. Is the steeple on the church supposed to be a different color? Or is that the BMP you guys were saying was screwed up. If so can someone email the BMP please. Great Work!! Thanks!!

Ales Dvorak Posted November 15, 2000 Share Posted November 15, 2000 Panzertruppen, great work! I have problem with330bmp. I can' download it. Any help?I use Netscape4.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzertruppen Posted November 15, 2000 Author Share Posted November 15, 2000 No. The church steeple should be the same color - e xcept I forgot to include it in the zip! Oops. I'm sending it over to Tom now and he will post it later today. Sorry about that. Some asked about the 33o.bmp. You should only need to download that if you have a problem with the gray two story building. This bmp is already in the zip so if it's working, you're good. You do need to download the 336.bmp when Tom posts it though. We'll combine all these into one zip later. Enjoy. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus Posted November 16, 2000 Share Posted November 16, 2000 Separate BMPs aren't downloading, says that file doesn't exist on server. Nevermind. Figured it out. For Netscape users: Use the ftp hotlink and then just ADD the bmp name in the current path and press Enter and then it asks you to 'open it' or 'save it to disk'. I suppose that it will work for the zip file also. The links on the screen aren't correct I guess, for Netscape that is.

Maximus Posted November 16, 2000 Share Posted November 16, 2000 Well 330 was included in the zip file. 330 is one of the sides to one of the two story buildings. It didn't come up corrupted in my zip file transfer. So... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
