Looking for Art Mods

Post by GaryChildress »

I just bought this game and really don't like the stock art a great deal. Would someone be willing or able to point me to any modified art packs in existence? I did manage to find the Nato counters pack and have that in game. What I'd really like to find, though are some new graphics for the different unit components like Machine guns, mortars etc.

I am with Gary on this too. I know a lot of you guys have some really cool fotos and artwork for this game
and I am always insanely jealous when they slip into the odd AAR or article. I am not an artist and my computer skills could be rated as evolving and almost at the eukariotic stage of development. So if someone was kind enough to point out something to prettify my ATG existence by pushing a button I would be grateful.
I still can't make the Bombur mods work right on the newer versions but my skills are so paleolithic that I don't know why.

As far as I am aware (and I might be wrong) nobody has made a mod that replaces the original graphics with new ones, without making it into a mod that only replaces it in their own mod.

But it could be done...

Go to: http://www.advancedtactics.org/scenario ... &tengine=0 FourSeasonsBIG.atzip is the file...

You may be interested in the 'wargame mod' that is under the graphics mod section and has improved nato like unit graphics. There are plenty of other mods as well...

Yeah, but does it create a new mod with new graphics, or does it actually overwrite the old ones?

When AT was released Vic used some very old WWII photographs and no one ever complained about it. Then ATG got released and it had new graphics from a well known artist, the same from the "Decisive Battles" also from Victor. Those graphics, as much as I like them, got quite some Flak. You're not the first one saying this, so yeah maybe Vic needs to replace them with his upcoming AT Platinum [:D].
Personally I'm in favor of either NATO symbols, *or* original WWII pictures. The latter should be original German, British, Canadian, Polish, Australian, Russian and so on. Lots of work.
I never replaced my graphics, but I totally understand you, they have a very generic feeling. They're nice but not *that* nice.

Does not overwrite the standard graphics but does create a new "standard" at2 file with just the new graphics as well as several modded at2 files.

You just bought this in Nov of 2014 and you have managed to do all of the graphics mods I see you have posted since then!?

All I can say is...WOW!
