David I Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Well boys, I'm getting real close. Keep in mind that this mod will be tailored for the battles in and around Normandy June through August 1944. It will not have any snow textures. Here's two scenes from the stock CMAK game: Here's two from CMETO: Here's some from CM Normandy: And a couple of different angles: As you can see, CMNormandy has a completely different feel to it. Available all in one place, all at one time, by this weekend with any luck. DavidI 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dieseltaylor Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Why can't I see any pictures? I know its to do with Firefox blocking images imported from other sites as a security measure but I cannot seem to get the "Allow certain sites" to work! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaws Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Looks great DavidI. I like the little bricks, that’s how they look indeed I was all day away yesterday and didn't see you post until now. Thanks for sharing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaws Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Here some shots from Ravenoville. The town were Burgett had his first battle 18 Airborn soldiers vs 200+ germans. And gues who won. Great books b.t.w. Town is 90% the same as 1944. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Very nice photographs from Normandy. Notice the skyline: no prominent mountains in the background. Things that have changed: the roads are now paved, the buildings have TV antennas, and one of them has a basketball net. You might want to check out Mikey D's Normandy Horizon mod. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philippe Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 There seems to be an adult palm tree in the first and fourth pictures. I'm assuming this is a by-product of eccentric gardening. I seem to recall that this also happens in a few spots in Southern England (Penzance? Scilly Isles?). On the other hand, the European climate is a bit milder now than it was sixty years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They grow palmtrees up in northern areas of Scotland too - I've seen them, although I will be damned if I can remember exactly where. It's all to do with the Gulf Stream or something? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David I Posted August 9, 2005 Author Share Posted August 9, 2005 Jaws, Great Photos! Wish I had them before I started the CMNormandy project. The main thing I noticed was that on the big buildings the brick/rock/stucco goes up all the way to the peak of the roof. The ones I made do not. I will try to fix before posting, but I may have to do a follow up due to time considerations. I also noted that some of the buildings have small slit like windows, and some have more modern large windows. Mine are all large, but I think I can live with that. Anyway, hang in there CMNormandy within the week is my goal. Thanks. DavidI 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawyer Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Very nice, David. Keep up the good work! I had a great two week vacation touring Normandy and the Breakout last summer. Mortain should provide a good scenario design for a Normandy pack. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manx Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 Hey, this looks great!! As someone who was involved in the original "Normandy" release for CMBO i know how much work goes into terrain conversions. Best of luck with it David, look forward to trying it out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
