really nice.
Are you drawing them by hand using some sort of sprite creator tool? how do you plan to do the animations?

another couple suggestions if other patch is in the works: -Survivors from teams that get disbanded due to high casualties and merged into depleted teams should get to keep their original weapons they had from their original squad. (present in the original CC2) -Wounded (yellow health) soldiers shou...

And immediately performed 2 acts of cowardice with his gun crew lol. The poor guy needs some R&R. No I think you got the timeline wrong: -Schwarztkopf was a member of a PzGrenadiere team. The MG42 gunner actually. -His whole team was killed by a tank, he was the whole survivor. -He panicked in ...

just occured to me... could it be possible to use say PNG format images instead of TGA with this new render library SDL?

is the reason for the videos not working the format they are rendered? if so could one convert them to another more modern video format in order to have them play in-game?

Hi,
This is a big surprise, I will check it out once when I get home.

what is meant by this?
-Has a rewritten renderer based on SDL. It is more likely to work properly with modern Windows.

Also, do you plan to improve the AI on other games from the series?

cheers and keep improving!

At least there's a small chance of a new game. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for answer.

Cheers!

Hi,

Is it possible to add Turret/Cannon shadows for vehicles? So when the turret turns, you can see the barrel shadow (and Turret) turning and casting a shadow on the terrain.



Thanks.

You can choose to not use that feature.

I think it represents that the losing side disengages and retreats to better defensive positions, where the attacker has to once again rethink his attack options.

It's a help for the A.I. mostly, in multiplayer I think it's not used.

Hi,

Nice looking sprites there. How did you manage to make them?

Very nice job!

Very nice tutorial, the sprites look so sharp and colorful, full of details.

Is there a guide showing how to make a sprite from scratch? maybe using a 3D model or a schematics image?

Thanks!

He was reunited with his beloved gun after all. Thanks to mick(xe5) for posting the hexadecimal table in another thread.

Hi, I posted this in another thread discussing something similar: a gunner from a pzgrenadier(mg) team, the sole survivor of said team, got requisitioned into a depleted Zugtrupp team; he even retained his position 'Gunner' but Zugtrupp teams don't have MG42's. Also retained his kills and acts of co...

maybe try on the discord channel.

All right.

I appreciate the feedback, many thanks!

Hello, Steve, Thanks for the offer, I sent you a PM. And another thing we found out was that the campaign intro video (not the game intro) plays only if the campaign is named the same as the stock one: "Grand Campaign". Presumably this is also true for the other campaigns and operations an...

Indeed, changing bitrate of video allowed it to play fully.

But still would like to know if there are some time and resolution size set limits? fwiw I managed to have a video played in fullscreen but the game cuts the play time.
thanks.
