OK, thanks. Glad you are using it but I am keen to get feedback from users of version 3 with the modded scenario because that's really where the mod was designed to get to :)

In the next release I have finally opted to go for an almost 100% board game look - removing the 3D mountains.

An optional Red Roads Add-on for those who struggle to see the vanilla roads on the map will come packaged with release 3.2.

My personal preference is Vanilla.

Where are the download links for this mod? Is it finished yet? Does it contain new scenarios as well? I finally broke down and purchased Case Blue.[:D]

Hi - welcome :)

There's a sticky at the top of the thread with all the downloads. tm.asp?m=3147536

Most people miss it so I am looking for a way to make it a sticky sticky ;)

It's a map mod at the moment, but we are working on new scenarios. There is a set of vanilla scenarios with the big cities modded to fill a single hex and the next release replaces the city image currently used by the mod.

Hope you enjoy using it.

PanzerKrieg 3.2 includes an OCS map-style option. Here's a sample, also highlighting some of the other mod changes coming in the next release.

The OCS color scheme is now my personal favorite.

Maybe the rivers need to be a bit more blue...

Rivers once again blue, edited the sea hexes to match. Even more OCS-like, IMO

Anyone who owns OCS and has a good scanner - please scan some high res (600 DPI) examples of various terrain and send me the links or email them to me.

Non-commercial modding use of the color scheme only - I won't cut and paste their images onto the map mod.

One of the final additions for 3.2 will be sharper officer pics, with the identity card effects removed:

Are you familiar with vassal? Good quality images of the maps can be found within the modules.

There is also this PDF http://www.gamersarchive.net/theGamers/ ... in_Key.pdf
Which has the colors...not a great image though. If I get time I'll see what I can dig up

Thanks - the image on the link is way too low resolution for me to grab the colors. I know Vassal but haven't used it for years. Will check it out.

Try this, it is a slice from one of the Case Blue Maps...it includes the terrain key and most of the rougher terrain...the vassal mod has all of the maps but the total size is around 160MB...let me see if I can figure out how to put in a dropbox link...will advise

I do wonder - is this mod "easily" transferrable to WTP?
Are both games basically using the same picture system, or has something changed, which would require tweaking and adjustments to be made for WTP, on top of simple hex-to-hex-image transfer?

Which mod are you talking about? Unit colors, map colors or unit images?
