Hoopenfaust2 Posted August 24, 2001 Share Posted August 24, 2001 Are any of the extremely talented mod gods doing Churchills or other mods which don't have their signature yet. i.e. Molek, Fernando, Magua, Fox, Bergman etc. You guys gotta keep the buzz going on this forum. Where's Manx anyhoo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Dorosh Posted August 24, 2001 Share Posted August 24, 2001 According to the Combat Missions website, I am under the impression Manx is currently on vacation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Posted August 24, 2001 Share Posted August 24, 2001 Well, I don't really consider myself to be a "mod god", more like a "24th level mod-cleric" really. However, I have seen a very nice Churchill in-progress from a "mod god" not on your pantheon. I'll leave it as an exercise for the student to figure out who it is.

Hoopenfaust2 Posted August 24, 2001 Author Share Posted August 24, 2001 Mr. Molek. Don't be bashful. Just think how many people actually use your mods. How many of your tanks have rolled over enemy positions... Is it Pawbroon? There is too many of you to remember off the top of my head. I remember last summer I'd be checkin' out the mods and installing them to see what they looked like, more than playing the game. Now all I do is play the game. Oh hey Gordon... thanks for makin' my battlefield look like a battlefield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Posted August 24, 2001 Share Posted August 24, 2001 Actually, in going back through my mystical book of incantations for summoning new mods, I can't seem to find that spell for invoking the Churchill. Since I don't want to put my foot in my mouth by praying to the wrong deity (who knows what we might end up with, a hi-res H-39 mod in ambush camouflage? The mind recoils in horror), suffice it to say that I know of at least 1 hi res Churchill mod in progress and that the results will be well worth the wait. Thank you for your kind words.

lcm1947 Posted August 24, 2001 Share Posted August 24, 2001 I know hardly anybody uses the Pershing but if it was better looking maybe more would. I do play with the Pershing quite a bit, normally just to get even after having all my Sherman's killed but it is not a really good looking mod. Tiger did it and it was a huge improvement over the original back then - way back then, but just doesn't even come close to comparing with what the more recent mods look like. Do you think it'll ever get improved? I would love to see what one of you mod Gods could do to it. It wouldn't even take that long. I could do it back my back is bothering me- well that and I don't have a clue how it's done. I would otherwise. Hey, no harm in asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feldgrau Posted August 25, 2001 Share Posted August 25, 2001 Not that I consider myself a Mod God (I only have my Apprentice Mod Maker's Card)... I am just about complete with the Universal Carrier series for all Commonwealth nations, and I am about to send off the alpha version of the Churchill series to the review committee for critique. That one is still a ways off, considering how slow I move... Regards, MSP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogface21 Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 Im still new to the scene, but Ive done the same thing, just downlaoding mods all day, trying them out. Fernando, and Gordon have done my fav's, but there is tons of good stuff out there. I dont think Manx has been home since Ive owned the game(!) but that is one of the best places to check.Would someone do th Daimler, or the Humber HC? The only mods Ive been able to find are so-so at best. I dont mean any offence to the modders, I just want everything to look as good as my shermans, and Panther Gs. Thank you all for the exellent work, its almost a hobby for me to zoom,(or crawl(netzero))around and find the best mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 PawBroon did the Humber SC. Find it on Tom's CMHQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissar Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 Whatever happened to Fernando? He was producing those jaw-dropping Panther, StuG/StuH, and German half-track mods. Does anyone know of a SS Tiger I mod? As much as I like the Mad Dog pack version, I want some SS schwere panzer markings, particularly Das Reich if it exists.

Brian Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 Just out of a matter of interest, has anybody produced a definitive list of what each bmp graphic is? I'm doing some of my own mods and I usually have a great deal of difficulty identifying what each part of the vehicle is, as they are often distorted or not terribly obvious.

Dogface21 Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 Yeah, the site COMBAT MISSIONS(Sorry,I dont know how to do the link thingy) has a definitive(almost?)list of MOD links, and in the how-to section, there is a list of Bmp files and whole bunches of Gooooood shiznit. Thanks for the Daimler,BTW.I Would dig a link to Fernando's homepage, if he even has one, I want to check out all that hes done, Im not sure if Ive seen it all yet. Is there ever a vote or anything like that for best mod? if so, how is it done? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Måkjager Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 As a matter of interest i was wondering if you guys could help me. I have several ideas for the Marder/Wespe mod pak i had been working on since a fair while back...i stopped due to losing my mod lust as i found working on my iMac very tiring. Well , that was then and this is now...i will be getting a new system sometime this week ( mb tomorrow ) and once all is set up i intend to finish it off. My request is....is there any particular preference for any of the following schemes....do you want them dirty/clean/battleworn/markings... I am just looking to try gauge what direction i should go in. Thanks Regards. Måkjager ps..these are all rough cuts.

Maximus Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 Feldgrau has supplied Gordon and I with his Alpha Churchill. It's looking pretty darn good. With only the basic paint job and hi-res detail in and even with some rough edges, it looks on par with his previous Sexton mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 Well, since nobody else says somefink Makjager, I sort of like No.4. Dirty, maybe a bit of shrapnel markings from CB fire, and markings would be great. I am expecting a history of Panzerartilleryregiment 13, I hope there will be pictures, and could supply you with the correct markings for that division. Look forward to that - what is the new system you are getting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But otherwise number two's coloring is the best for my liking. Maybe if you could combine the two And yep, dirty and battleworn. Good looking mods as always, keep up the good work.

Hoopenfaust2 Posted August 26, 2001 Author Share Posted August 26, 2001 Makjager. Make them dirty. Fernando's Panthers are sooo good. But I've gone a made them dirty...just a little detail goes along way. Those are lookin' sweet. When will the churchill be released for the public?

Feldgrau has just got its basic structure. He needs to fine tune the details, shadows, 'n stuff. Then he's gonna add the kit and markings. You all are gonna wanna use the Churchill more often once this baby comes out. I think Gordon's chompin' at the bit to do camo versions 'n stuff. Here's the Churchill compared next to his Sexton.

Maximus Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 Makjager, I like #4 and #5. #1 is a little too "dirty" I guess. #2 ain't bad either. #3's camo pattern is a little blah #6 is a wee bit too dark, if ya know what I mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
