New Units!

[phcas]

Hello,

Just started to make a equipment mod. You can use this file with no problems for your campaign and saved games. (there are no graphic problems becausse only existing graphics were used*)(*Later more)

THIS IS JUST A SMALL TRY OUT

A lot of Dutch units are added so you can make a "Raid on Holland 1940 scenario" now.

In the file you will find renamed units and new units

Oké so far so good.

Now the real work. I have some problems with the graphic .PNG files. As you can see a made a new graphic of Polish paratroops. I used the British paratroops and give them helmets instead of red barets.

There are 2 problems.
First the picture in the game seems a little darker after rework and saving?
Second, I can see the picture in the Editor/units BUT I CAN'T CLICK IT! If I use existing graphics I do not have this problem. Who can help me?

Do you have white or transparent background in your PNG? It must be transparent, or the icon will not work well.

Hi Michael,

I first have to leave for a 3 weeks hollyday with my family.

I am trying to make bigger maps for PC but run into the problem of range of aircraft. In bigger maps the airfields are at greater distance from eachother. This makes aicraft have a very limmited range or you have to make unrealistic many airfields in your map, how do you fix that?

Greetings Caspar

(I will be back in 3 weeks)

Hi Caspar
I will modified all units with realistic movement and supply paramenters for 1km = 1 Hex - Than a Bf109e can fly 800km (1575km with additional tanks), but with a smaller ammo parameter - similuate a more airfield base Airbattle - all planes fly out - can fight 2-3 times and must fly back to his airfield.


I wish you nice holidays my friend ! Come back recovered again to work with a fantastic game engine - Panzer Corps.
