Pic mod

Would people want that? I just did a handful of the images...

Oh, absolutely I want this. I've hated those cartoon drawings from the get-go; I thought they looked totally unprofessional and really undercut the credibility of the game. Redmarkus, if you've got the time, please carry this mod through to conclusion, and thanks!

Best,

Tim

I would certainly prefer great pictures over the cartoons, I can live with losing the weather/terrain info. I can understand why the developer chose to go with cartoons due to copyright etc etc on pictures, but that wont stop the modders!

I'm continuing with the B&W photo mod but I also found a couple of books on sale at the Duxford airshow today - WW2 tank and aircraft images in fantastic color and detail. I'll be upgrading my other units mods as well. See sample below.

I know not what i ask ,but is it possible to change pics without losing the info about terrain? I know its available above also.Just asking. Thx again for your work.

[Redmarkus5]

Terrain info is lost from the Pics area if you use photos. However, terrain info still appears at the top of the map and weather is notified by the mud or snow map hexes...

You can't have everything

Sadly, they don't have every tank type in the book, so I'll do my best.

redmarkus, i wish someone had put you in charge of the photo illustrations for WitE -- these unit photos are awesome and much better than many of the blurry, indistinct unit photos used in WitE. (FWIW, though, I actually really love the aesthetic of the DC unit illustrations)

Thanks. You probably know what I think of WitE already...

I produced this mod in about 3 hours using Google and almost all of the images are in the public domain with no copyright indicators.

Would anyone still have the photo portrait mod discussed in this thread?

Old links seem broken.

My old PC died and I'm trying to make DCCB atmospheric again.

This mod did a lot for the feel of the game ....
