Kodiakwdj Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Hi All, I am pretty new to the game but I think it is great. I may be missing something but is there any way to make a mosque and or a minaret when designing scenarios. Thanks. Kodiak 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonS Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 ctrl-click on the roof of buildings when in 3D mode in the editor. That will cycle you through a series of roof styles, one of which is a domed roof. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodiakwdj Posted April 27, 2009 Author Share Posted April 27, 2009 Thanks for the info on where to find the Mosques. The one thing I miss in the new downloadable games is a bound manual but I understand why they do it. I find e-manuals very hard to get much out of. I havent seen any minarets in the scenario's yet so I assume there arent any? Hopefully they will add them. I hope they add more countries and locations as time goes on. I can think of a few I would like to see added: Israel Iran Iraq Afghanistan Russia Georgia Ukraine France Germany etc etc etc Hopefully they will continue to add countries and locations so you could simulate just about any modern conflict. They possibilities are endless. Any idea if they have any interest in expanding it? This is such a great game and much better than the original it was derived from. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdstrike Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 No, minarets are not included. BF went for a strict "generic building" design for their first release of the new engine, so we'll not see them in CMSF. However, their next CM Normandy game should see a wider range of buildings and hopefully BF's next take on a modern "cold war" setting as well. But for now, all you can do is build a 8-story tower and add some balconies - not really a minaret, but gets the job done. You may want to check some of the other scenarios how it looks. And I'm afraid new countries or locations for CMSF won't be added, neither. There will be a brand new modern day game sometime after the Normandy game in a temperate, setting (probably NATO/Russia?). For CMSF, there will be a "NATO" module after the British forces are released, most likely including Germans, French and Canadians (perhaps Dutch). Some new stuff for Syria might be included also, but definitely no new country. However, the current engine does a pretty good job at modelling non-Syrian scenarios. Some pleople have already made a couple of Afghanistan battles, and there are a couple of mods out there to help simulate Russian troops or conflictes outside of Syria. Hope that helps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akd Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Pretty sure they said no on France, and I think it is Denmark rather than the Netherlands (or maybe both). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodiakwdj Posted April 28, 2009 Author Share Posted April 28, 2009 Thats too bad. I hope they add some more onboard equipment too. Like artillery etc. I would think they could a least add some more middle east enemies to this even if they do a seperate Nato/Warsaw type game later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combatintman Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Nope - my understanding is that the NATO module will be the Dutch, the Germans and the Canadians. France was considered but the range of equipment was judged to be too prohibitive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdstrike Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 So there's no French at all? That's too bad. I was actually looking forward to give that AMX-10RC wheeled tank destroyer a spin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonS Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 What about taking the US Army Stryker MGS for a spin instead? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
