mjkerner Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 I was going to do this at some point, but I finished it early in anticipation of sdp's upcoming Italian Campaign Mod. It has all the US Infantry divisions that fought in Italy, and the 1st Armored Division, the 509th Parachute Infantry Battalion, and the 100th Battalion/442nd Regiment of Nisei Americans as well. The infantry uniforms are the brownish-based OD Dark and have the unit shoulder patches added. Each division mod also has a variety of helmets and leggings. If you have my other uniform mod, you’ll already have some of these divisions. I tried to upload at the Repository, but it was too large, so I'll need to pack it into parts before I try again. Which is a pain. Get it here: http://cmmods.greenasjade.net/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjkerner Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 Thanks guys. I just uploaded this mod at the Repository. I had to do it in two parts. Here's the readme: US Divisional Patches Italian Campaign Mod Parts I and II Part I has US Divisions 1, 3, 9, 10th Mountain, 34, 35, and 45 Part II has US Divisions 85, 88, 91,and 92, and the 100th/442nd Regiment and the 509th PIB This had to be done in two parts because the original single file was too big. This is the same Italian Campaign Uniform Mod available at GreenasJade’s CMMODS website, just in two parts. This mod has all the US Infantry divisions that fought in Italy, and includes the 1st Armored Division, the 509th Parachute Infantry Battalion, and the 100th Battalion/442nd Regiment of Nisei Americans. I didn’t include the 82nd Airborne, since Vein has taken care of that mod. The infantry uniforms are the brownish-based OD Dark and have the unit shoulder patches added. Each division mod also has a variety of helmets and leggings. If you have my other uniform mod, you’ll already have some of these divisions. After downloading and unzipping the zip file called “Italian Campaign Uniforms_Part I (or Part II—whichever) mjk” to the desktop or wherever you store your unused mods, you will have a .brz file named either “Italian Campaign Patches Part I_(or Part II) mjk”. You’ll have to “explode” that .brz file using the mod tools’ “RezExplode” program. Once you explode it, you’ll find a folder with .brz files for the divisions/units inside. Each unit .brz is a self-contained mod, so all you have to do is to pick the unit you want to use and drop that into your “z folder” inside the game’s “Data” folder. The file structure is: Battlefront\Combat Mission Battle for Normandy\Data\z. If you don’t have a z folder, make a subfolder in the Data folder, name it “z” (without the quotes) and that’s where you put the uniform(s) you want to use. Because of the different types of uniforms used by the game, you can have one mod of each uniform type—armor, infantry, and airborne infantry--in the z folder at the same time without conflict. If you have two of one type, say the 1st and 2nd Division (type = infantry) in the z folder at the same time, the highest numbered unit will show up. Cheers! mjk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenAsJade Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Thanks for posting the note about it being at CMMODS. I haven't been able to close with BFC a way to make the automatic posting here work: I guess they are too busy with the patch to worry about that, fair enough.

Erwin Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 All we need now are some Italian maps/scenarios... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdp Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 I'm designing some maps to go with the Campaign Mod, but they´re all WIPs at the moment. Some of them are purely fictional, with typical italian culitvated areas or mountainous areas. I've also started on some maps in the editor that will be more true to real locations. I've collected some tactical/operational maps that may be used as overlays in Google Earth if you want to use them. Get them here (approx 65 MB download) Here are some screens of the maps I'm planning on releasing after the mod is finished; - and finally, a map of the Sant´Angelo in Theodice area (Gustav line south of Cassino) with Rapido river; cheers/ sdp 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkerner Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 sdp...my mouth is watering. Those maps look fantastic! I figured to wait until the Commonwealth mod gets here to do several 1st Canadian Corps battles based off of Mark Zuehlke's trilogy "Oratana", Gothic Line", and Liri Valley". I also want to build Cassino Town...I'm working on the Maori faces for the NZ Division. But maybe I'll start in around Salerno or Anzio instead. I'm also planning on doing Indian faces. Would be nice to make Goumiers out of winterized Brits or US (assuming that there will be long coats for some of the uniforms), but that will have to wait for the Bulge, I imagine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
