abneo3sierra Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 A two part question. First, how difficult is it to mod this game? Assuming I know a fair amount about comp programs, but not a genius at that. Second, my great grandfather fought with Totenkopf div. I am curious if there are any mods for that divisions tactical markings? Thank you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der Alte Fritz Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 HI it is very easy to mod this game and well worth it. Go to www.cmmods.com and download the mod manager McMMM. Then start downloading any mods that you want. I have not seen any mods for this particular division most people tend to go for LLAH. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 In an inspired moment BTS realized that they could actually use authentic SS uniforms without having to show the sieg rune on the collar tabs. How? By simply using the Totenkopf division's uniforms. So be aware, the standard SS uniforms that come with the unmodded version of the game are correct for the unit you're interested in (and correct for nobody else). I think I've seen a few mods that include their vehicle markings, but if not, it wouldn't require very sophisticated graphics skills to make your own. And yes, the CM series was designed to have graphics that are very easy to mod. You're just altering bitmaps, and you don't even need Photoshop -- you can do it in Paint. By the way, you should pay a visit to CMHQ at combatmission.com -- this was the original unofficial CM site run by members of the BTS team when not wearing their official hats. It still exists and much of the material there is very good. Well worth a visit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 FWIW I was just looking at a Panzer IV G early mod by Mikey D that works in CMAK and CMBB and it comes in Totenkopf markings. The divisional markings for german tanks are really easy to remove or to add. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome, where are those? I have been trying to mess with it some also, but am doing something wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Almost everything you would ever want is at cmmods. I can't remember which game they were in (probably cmbb) but just go into cmbb cmmods and do a search for Panzer IV G Early. Or look up designer name Mikey D. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
