European Air War - The Gen

Can only find out. I'll send an email.

Sorry Ed, accidentally knocked out a bit of your text when editing the post. Re ships etc.

I'm sure you and Ray are right. Marginal differences between basic appearance of WW1 and WW2 ships etc.

Ed - saw the pictures of these forts, and also wondered if we could set up something like that. Verdun being good example.

Ray

Just curious, are you finding many appropriate TMOD's?

Yes, quite a number will be useful. Some may need some light editing for period - trucks for example.

This is what the one in Spain lppks like: 161 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 3 0 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5 6 0 0 0 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 8 0 0 0 10 11 0 0 12 0 0 13 0 14 15 16 0 9 0 0 17 0 18 19 20 21 22 0 23 24 25 26 0 0 0 27 28 0 29 30 0 31 0 32 33 0 34 35 36 0 0 37 38 39 40 41 42 0 43 0 0 44 45 46 47 48...

Anyone know what "bases.mpf" is/was for?

Is it just another multiplayer thing?

You really definitely do.

Not at the expense of getting this project done of course



I'm up to Tmod200 ingetting the object folders sorted with screen shots.

Regarding machine guns as AA guns:



My dad, Biggin Hill, sometime in late 1940.

:yes: Thanks Ed! Ray, you might like to hold off raking through the 2015 ground object list for a few days. I am completing creating an analytical set of folders, one for each 2015 object containing the 3dz files, skin files, pcx files, data file and screen shots for tmod, tmog, and destroyed mods. ...

Here's the 2015 target list: 1 Oil plant 2 Ball bearing factory 3 Chemical factory 4 Aircraft factory 5 Airfield 6 Armament factory 7 Railyard 8 Shipyard 9 U-boat pen 10 V-1 site 17 Heavy AA 18 Light AA 19 Large Oil Tank 20 Radar station 21 Large radar tower 22 23 Rec Hall 24 Fuel dump 25 Control To...

I can handle that with an assist from Ed. :beer: Moggy, I don't have a target editor set up at present so I don't have easy access to the TMOD list. Can you give me some of the appropriate hangar TMOD numbers to save time? At the moment the Tmod numbers only reach to the old default, so this can be...

That's the one. I think we can big up and reskin an existing hangar shape to create that.

Funnily enough I know and love that guy. His videos on the Mosquito, Percy Hobart the tank man, and Douglas Bader are particularly brilliant! On topic, we'll need a Zeppelin shed ground object, and a static Zeppelin. All subject of bombing raids from the earliest days of the war. I'm still gathering...

Thanks Ed.

I like in particular the Maschinenkanone!

1.6 can apparently support hi-res bitmap skins for ground objects. I've never knowingly used them. Anyone had success with hi-res skins? Is it a bit of a load on the frame rate?

Thanks Ed, will try and get some of these AA guns modelled.
