GunMod Posted November 5, 2002 Author Share Posted November 5, 2002 README: Title: RealColor Mod for CMBB Author: JD "Gunslinger" Wohlever Tools: Paint Shop Pro, UltraEdit Time: 43 hours Credits: Battlefront for original textures The person who first came up with the idea about removing tree tops - Please Contact me ASAP for credit! The person who first came up with the idea about thinning the command way points - Please contact me ASAP! -------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT NOTE TO MODDERS or ANYONE WHO ADDS MORE TEXTURES TO THERE GAME AFTER INSTALLING THIS MOD!! : Feel FREE to add to this mod. I ask one thing of mod makers, if you are going to make a new texture or anything, please use the following formula so that your add-ons can conform to this color scheme: In Paintshop Pro 7+ load the graphic to be modified. Paint away. Once your texture is done, go to : COLORS ---> ADJUST ---> HUE/SATURATION/LIGHTNESS Making sure the MASTER channel is selected change the SATURATION to -15 Next go to all PINK areas and modify them to RGB code of R:255 G:0 B:255 If you follow this formula after making your textures and use it on ALL textures, your add-on will mix with this add-on perfect. Please make SURE you remember to change the PINK areas to 255,0,255 or your transparent areas will not be transparent. If you think that's too much work , try doing 5000+ files this way It only takes you about 30 seconds per texture. -------------------------------------------------------------------- What's in the mod? Or Why should I download 2++ megs??? 1) Modified 5100 files to adjust color saturation, luminance, and detail. Now all textures have a much more realistic look. 2) Modified Targeting lines, way point lines, etc to take up less space on the screen. 3) Removed overhead view tree-tops. If you are looking at the map from a straight down view, normally the tree tops block your view of items underneath the trees. This has been remedied. You will still see trees as normal when in any non top down view. To tell where trees are in top down view just look for the leaves at the tree bases. 4) Modified Flags to be smaller as they looked way too huge and block view of some objects 5) Re-adjusted size of some textures to improve quality and improve frame rates 6) Modified Craters and Foxholes to appear non-facing. In other words, no in-correct light shadows on craters. 7) Created Splash-Screen that goes with the war 8) This mod conforms to German law as far as no Nazi Markings have been added that are prohibited in Germany. If you want German marking, you'll have to add them on your own as I did not want to ruin German folks from being able to use this mod. WHAT HAS NOT BEEN ALTERED? 1) The GUI except for the SplashScreen as I know folks like making new GUI's 2) The Special Effects, Fire, Explosions, smoke. Look for an add-on pack coming soon! -------------------------------------------------------------------- To Install: Run the SETUP.EXE Extract to your CMBB\BMP folder. ALLOW it to overwrite If for some reason you do NOT like the mod, simply copy all the contents of the BMP folder on your CMBB CD. If you do not own the CMBB CD, do not bother asking me for help. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- BUGS, KNOWN ISSUES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- None that I know of. If you find an object that has PINK around it, please make a note of what object it was, the season, weather, and so forth. Send me the info so I can make a small patch ASAP. However, I did test every single texture in and out of game and resolved all graphic issues I could find. COMING SOON (Possible) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Fire, Explosion, Smoke Effects Add-on Pacific Warfare. <-- I need Battlefront's help with this one though for 3D models It is do-able right now, but will look goofy with German faces, vehicles and buildings. GUI Interface? <-- Not sure on this one, I like the default GUI Movie Recorder <-- Need Battlefront help to finish Modern Warfare - Battlefront's Help needed for 3D models and OOB Sound pack <-- Working on it, trying to get rights for sounds... All graphics work has been modified from the original CMBB. All work contained within this mod and zip are copyright 2002 JD "Gunslinger" Wohlever Contact Info: wohlever@yahoo.com 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeauCoupDinkyDau Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 At that size, you may have to burn them to CDs and mail thme out to people that want them (I for one would pony up the two or three bucks needed to cover your costs to mail it to me). I don't think anyone could host 200+ MBs! :eek: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just one question, will this mod affect my frame rates (dunno a better word for it)?No, as a matter of fact, because of the way I reduced some of the textures to make them look better (Don't ask lol) your framerates might actually improve. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as the Mac folks go, there's the free Stuffit for Windows (Stuffit is the Mac version of Zip - sorta). Stuffit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yank Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 Wow! The screen shots look great, can't wait to get my grubby little paws on it. I was hoping when I noticed the name Gunslinger posting on the forum again that you might apply your magic touch. Well anyway, thank you very much. Oh and by the way, the stock bmp's look fantastic also, I just prefer the toned down(for lack of a better term) look. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracer Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 WOW!!, great work!!, One question though, how do you keep your wife ( or girl friend ) from leaving you? I start trying to get into modding, (and when your stll learning it's tough), next thing you know hours have went by and your other half is ready to kill you, LOL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
