Have you looked at Cabido's Mod? Or is this still too populated?

Redrawn, cleaner looking movement arrows and colour adjusted brass cursor.

As I am always playing around with the graphics I thought I could share some of the things I did in this thread from time to time.

Those who maybe find the Mod's clear terrain too bright for their taste might like this. A darker and more saturated version of open terrain. Also a subtle light hex ...

You do great work. I use almost everything you do.

I really like the new snow and the cleaner urban look, and I will be using them. Probably the blue for the steel cursor too - it makes a lot of intuitive sense.

Thank you.


Thank you - you are welcome.

I primarily chose yellow and turquise ...

Now this might be viewed as controversial ;)

Note the snow symbols depicting snowy ground and the combat markers (planned battles, battle results and battlefield timestamps).

As the snowflake might not be everyone’s taste and the combat markers block important ...

This is a major update to my previous “Best of both Worlds” Mod.

The mod relies heavily on Cabido's Board Game Style Mod (https://forums.matrixgames.com/viewtopic.php?p=4345991#p4345991). “Best of both Worlds” is a combination of modified versions of Cabido’s graphics with my own or modified ...

It is not entirely clear to me what you mean with "a random unit". So I opened the Hungary-Romania 2000 scen in hotseat and clicked myself to turn 4 when the Romanian airmobile/airborne units are released.

I airlifted the three airborne units via heli transport (yellow circle and arrow) from the ...

From the attached document--

" Following is the key to the fields. Fields 01 through 35 correspond to the 35 terrain tiles in the map editor, starting with clear terrain (01), arid (02), sand (03) ... hills(6), mountain (7), alpine (8), forest (28), light woods (29) and ending with broken rail ...

Hi Telumar,

One way to make these map mods without the scenario editor.

- Save a scenario file as a .gam file. In the .gam file, a text editor can edit the lines that define the terrain in a given hex.

Attached is a mod I did to your test scenario. It shows a hex with a minor road joining a ...

Sent you a PM as I don't want to capture the sce thread.

Telumar,

That is very cool, looks like you found an Easter Egg in the code! I like the minor river flow into the major river. Does the hex report as a "super river" ?

Makes me wonder if one could edit the .gam file to produce these effects. Be a real pain for larger maps, though.

:D


The hex ...

Maybe maybe not.

But you could not have both tiles (river and major river) in the same hex. Also the feature is not accessible when you open an already existing scenario.

This seems like an undocumented feature or did i miss something (which could well be too)?

I found this in the map editor part of the sce editor. There are two new(?) draw modes which you find when you cycle through the draw mode options, called "river draw mode" and "super river draw mode". I have ...

There is no such thing as a transport ship unit in TOAW. We don't have that here

Instead sea transport is regulated through the Sea Transport Capacity (see 11.4 in the manual) that a designer can set in the scenario editor.

Thank you for the explanation of the sce mechanics.

So, also as you describe Chris , we are still in for some interesting surprises

And here's a look at some of the other adjustments: Unit/Formation names took advantage of the 32 character limit. Sizes and Service Arms were set for formations and (not shown) units.

Yes, I'm interested. Either side as well. You can just contact me through the e-mail in the documentation.

As for what is the optimal choices I can't give you an answer. I would say that the Soviet player should at least make an effort towards Leningrad, even if not selecting Vega. He could still ...

Volkhov Front and NW Front both have two RR-repair units and Leningrad Front have a single, that either can be taken out if a land corridor is opened, or just sail it across Ladoga, so 5 in total. Fully fit they have about a 75% chance of repair, so if they are in place it can be done quite ...

Can’t blame him with a strong attack on the Northeast being the plan.

Slightly eastward extended and thinning out the amount of towns, but other than that it's the same as the Neva map yes.

No plans for PO, unfortunately. I started out trying first to see if I could just get it to hold the starting frontlines in a defensive stance, but my initial attempts gave very ...
