Francesco's Models : are they useable in DCCB?

Post by Kel »

Just bought DCCB and perused through the mods, who greatly enhance an already fine game.
When I see the unit drawings mods, I wonder if someone contacted Francesco, the Hearts of Iron modder who created something that would apparently be an awesome starting point for a DCCB unit drawings graphic mod ?

For those who don't see what it's about here is the link:

Quick answer.

The download link to Francesco's art is here - no login required: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/sho ... Models-Mod

However, there are two problems:

1. The size of the HOI unit graphics is much smaller than DCCB, so the resolution will be lost I expect and the units will look crappy in the game.

2. The HOI units have a background in the same image, no transparency, so you would not see the DCCB backgrounds, or you would have to delete all of the HOI background pixels, which is a huge job.

The best option is to get Francesco to start playing DCCB!
