DeutschRitter Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 This mod looks so fantastic that BF should give you money and implement it into the first patch! awesome :eek: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vein Posted May 29, 2011 Author Share Posted May 29, 2011 It's just a different flavour of ice-cream The original colours (except the sky) are pretty accurate when you see Normandy in the summer under bright sunshine. I just prefer a little more gritty looking colours... Normandy in the summer when the sun's behind the clouds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mord Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 I agree with Vein...the game right out of the gate is exceptionally nice...and if there was no way to mod it I could've lived just fine with it as is...just this subdued look adds a nice grit to the atmosphere...kinda like that filter they used in SPR and BoB. But in praise of Dan and the guys they did a helluva a job, out did themselves with all the work they put in...I guess we Mod mostly because we can and not because the game looks bad.

DeutschRitter Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Dont get me wrong. BF did a very good job. But I have to say that the colors of this mod look a way better then the original ones (for me). When I look at the pictures they remind me more of a movie instead of a game. In my oppinion the colors of the original game are by comparison more gamey Dont stone me to death I just wanted to say that Vein did in my oppinion a very nice job and for my taste the colors look overall more harmonized. And the textures of the street/walls and pavement look better and fit more into the environment then the original ones. As I started CMBN I was very happy with the game. But maybe you know that feeling when you are very happy but some small little things give a tiny little small "bad taste". For me that are the Allied Icons (the green is to 80s like for me ) and the "shining" colors of the environment. Overall its a formal critic on a very very very good game. So everything can be improved (nothing is perfect; not even your beloved girlfriend, uh?!?) and Vein improved it very well Looking forward to the release of the mod. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroCat Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Well if you need any help testing the mod out along the way throw it up on a file site like http://www.megaupload.com/ and I'm sure myself and others would be happy to try it out. This sounds like a scam-o-rama but really I'd be happy to test it out, I love modding/messing with the CM games as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holman Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 For those of us who are visually challenged, may I request a small mod: can some modder please make the hedge tile of a lighter green color? This will be of great help to distingusih between a small hedge and a bocage. Thank you Any way to distinguish hedge from bocage would be great! And any way to make breaks in the bocage more immediately visible would be extra great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vein Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 It's done. but I have to finish some writing chores before I take the time to separate it from my mod soup and upload it with pictures and a dull but comprehensive readme of all the changes (yawn). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kipanderson Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Vein, hi, Looks great. Looking forward to the mod . It is strange but true that the shipped graphics are probably more realistic but your mod will still “look... seem...” more realistic . They will just look better for the purpose. As to some extent the colouring of the Band of Brothers series, far from realistic, looked great within that setting. All the best, Kip. PS. Thanks to the genius of Charles we can just swap them in and out at will in a few seconds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcelt Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Greetings Vein---Excellent v2 terrain--really impressed by all but one feature --not sure about the corn fields. June, July, August the corn is becoming ready to be harvested and is ,in my view usually more yellowed than strawlike in appearance But an extraordinary and brilliant piece of work--many thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mord Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Great job Vein...as usual. I like it a lot. Looks really cool under a overcast sky...just gives me a WWII kinda feeling...if that makes any sense. Thanks a ton. Take a break man...play the game! Mord. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vein Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 not sure about the corn fields. June, July, August the corn is becoming ready to be harvested and is ,in my view usually more yellowed than strawlike in appearance You are right of course. The problem is keeping it all in the same vein (ho ho ho), so that none of the textures look like they don't belong. The wheat/corn is yellower than it looks in the screenshots but deliberatley less yellow than in actuality. And Mord, I play the game, don't worry about that. My modding doesn't take up all that much time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
