Blue Companion

Post by MarcA »

Cobra, just found your blue companion and I like it.

One minor problem, the text does not fit in the white box on the transfer screen. I assume this is because I am using -altfont.

The icons in the hex display would sure look good with a similar blue work over, he suggests hopefully.[:)]

I will have a look at the blue companion should be easy to fix

could you explain a little more on this on what you want - do mean the ship icons (normal green) or something else

Cobra

I don't think I am explaining myself well here. Could you not change the green to a similar blue as used for the background opf the a05 and a06 panels. The white text shows up well on those.

I don't mean to be a pain, I could try myself but I am not half the artist you are.

Here's one i prepared earlier to give you an idea what I mean

why there are 4 columns of icons? Is there any difference (in use) between each column?

Hi mate you will find in most of the panels 4 columns of differant colours each color represent differant levels of numbers or strength
eg number of particular type of ship in port or number of particular type aircraft at a base
or how many troops are in a hex
I dont think the colors are explained in the manual but I could be wrong there

So colors of single airgroup does not depend from the group itself, but only from overall quantity of aircraft?

I know the small map icons are graduated in colour for size dependence but I have never noticed it for buttons on the hex display.

P.s. Thanks for the art work, it's looking good.

Excellent. My hex displays are starting to look good.

I don't recognise the last three icons does anybody know what they might be. Come to think of it cavalry units use the standard ifnatry symbol rather than the normal cavalry one, which is a shame.

US Ship sides

Post by ramc62 »

I have seen some very impresive Japanese ship sides from Freman come out recently (carriers, cruisers, and destroyers). I havent seen any US ships (except for some US CV and BB) of the same quality. could someone make some, or point me in the right direction where I could find some.

Has anyone done the planeside for the Navy version of the B 24, which only had the single rudder??
If not, It should be done as the PB4Y did not have the twin rudder and there is already a slot for the PB4Y.
BTW, some were painted all dark blue, like the PBY's....
This plane was called the "Privateer"....Thank you............
(I use CHS).
