Hellcat Winter Mod!!!


Recommended Posts

Hello all...I know what you are thinking....who the hell is this...true but if anyone is interested I made a mod for the first time after waiting day after day to finally see a winterized M-18. I know it is nowhere near the high quality mods like Marco and Tiger but I feel it is ok for a first try. Only help I need is what are the BMP file numbers for this to pop up only for winter scenarios? I have a few BMP filelists but they barely scratch the surface of what goes where. If this looks good enough for some folks I will carry on with the other neglected tanks and vehicles that have yet to be touched.....any suggestions?

The .bmp numbers for a winter mod are the same as the original except put a one (1) in front of the .bmp number. Example: US helmet is 5000.bmp, winter US helmet is 15000.bmp.

CM is specially coded to only show winter versions when there is snow on the ground. The game basically looks for any units files that start with a 1 and displays those when there is snow present.

Hope that helps.

Will you send it to The Last Defense? It'll be the first allied mod in the archive. I'd love to have it on my website.

But if somehow my skiff goes down, I'll freeze to death before I drown.

I can see it. It looks very nice actually, just not really historical. Its a very good Mod, and I'm sure people would love to have it, atleast until one of the "big" Mod makers get around to it.

However, never feel overshadowed by the works of others. ALL Mods are appreciated. The members of the community genuenly appreciate the use f your time to provide the community with another option for bettering a great game.

I completely agree it is not completely historical. But I figure it is better than nothing....which is what there is now for many AFV's and vehicles. I got a bit tired of waiting for someone else to waste their precious time and said try it yourself. Again I agree give em a few months and this'll be wiped away by the "BIG" boys....and more power to em...I'm sure I'll DL thiers and install right over this one hahahaha wink.gif

Sgt Schulz,

Great work on your first mod ever, it really does look nice. I don't think it follows historical winter camo schemes but it sure does look cool. I've posted it on the site (for those of you who havn't checked out the FO) and is available for download. Nice job Sgt, if you want to send me anything else feel free to do so, my site is open to anybody (especially first time mod makers smile.gif).
