Any idea where I could get this mod from? TIA!

You could combine my mod with Telumar ones to have a nice compilation.

Thanks, got it! [:)]

I have a question though: why am I unable to see the damaged bridges special icon? E.g. Tiles_improvedroad_damaged_bridge.

Do I need to make copies with s_ and h_ prefixes? It is not only with your modification, I have not been able to see them at all. I am testing with Oberst Klink's Tutorial 41, I have blown the bridge on the improved road but do not get the damaged bridge icon.

It's almost comical that after what, 15 years of development, that there is still a bridge in this hex. [:@]

Yes, as I said I was pretty sure I had messed something up. As it was, I had simply configured all the mods to install to \Graphics folder. Seemed to work to a treat as it was, apart to this bridge thing. Now that I configured them to install to \AltGraphics instead, the damaged bridges showed up as well. It must have been because there was already some damaged bridge graphics available in AltGraphics, the game reads that folder first, then continues to Graphics, right?

Anyway, your mod works now as supposed to, including bridges [:)]

Additionally, I added damaged bridges just by themselves to my JSGME configuration, and can now easily add them to other mods as well:

I hope it was useful at all, aye?

Herr Oberst,

It was very useful indeed :)

Veteran of quite many wargames, the multiple rounds in the same turn thingy was quite something new. I would have struggled with the concept if not for the excellent tutorials here. As always, I spent minimun time with the manual, instead picked up the first interesting looking scenario... and was lost pretty much immediatel, being used to action points type of approach.

Curtis Tomay's / Bob's articles were of great help, I started with your tutorial scenario, must have played it like a ten times before I was sure I got the game mechanics right. Then graduated to Kasserine 43 scenario, and won a convincing victory on my second try

Now I have been playing with the corps level scenarios. Fun stuff indeed.

Don't care! The mod provides best graphics for TOAW I've ever seen. And there are people still playing TOAW.

(And many thanks)
