Very nice. In TOAW III I have used your graphics modifications for the terrain for a long time. I like them a lot, so I hope you also intent to redo the AT terrain in similar style. [:)]

FYI: I'm getting a bunch of "invalid or unsupported PNG type" when I try to open these in Irfanview and parse errors if I try to open them in Photoshop so I haven't tried them in the game yet.

Looking at your screenshot, I like the nice, large NATO symbols. Question, are they colored like that or have all of those units been selected already? The symbols look "grayed out" to me. ?

Thank you, JMass, sounds very good, it gives a similar look to your TOAW mods.

Thanks to png format it is a transparency effect (white 25%).

Would you be willing to make a version with the transparancy effect? To me, they look like they've all been selected and used already, but maybe it's just the screenshot that you posted, I'll have to see it in the game to make up my mind (picky bunch us wargamers, I know [:)] )

The difference is not great but you can see it in this screenshot:

I've tested and it's great to see nato symbols on the game, excellent job again, JM, but I agree on the idea expressed before, it's difficult to see if a unit has moved or not by it's counter color.

Thanks JMass! I knew you would come through...I use your graphics for TOAW....anyhow, one question, the armor icon seems to have a strange color discrepancy on the left side (appears almost white). Is this just in the screenshot?


Also, what icon are you using for mortars?

Maybe that's for a Lt Tank? Would Medium Tanks be 2/3 white, and Heavy Tanks all white?

AT,  the MG symbol file "MachineGunSymbol.png" is missing in SFTypesSymbols_Axis and SFTypesSymbol_Axis_West Facing.
You've included MachineGunGermanSymbol.png in those dirs but it's not always used in the scens, so both must be changed.
Quite easy, the "German" file has just to be copied and renamed.

Lt Tank left side white, Ht Tank left side black. Mortars have a normal NATO symbol:
