Thank you, JMass! The map looks great.

However, I notice that I don't get an image on my "front page" (the first screen shown upon starting TOAW III), just a black rectangle. In the zip and in my "alt graphics" directory I see that you've used a photo of two tanks for this picture (cwtitle.bmp), but I don't see them.

(I have also installed the rounded tiles file, but I can't imagine that this is the problem.)

Fixed. It seems to be the "Text Contrast" setting that's the problem. Setting it high obscures that image.

Here's the new version of tiles_misc with smaller numbers (please remove the suffix ".txt"):

And now the version of tiles_misc without numbers (please remove the suffix ".txt"):

Has there been a MOD posted somewhere that has the counters on the 3d map? The pics look great and I would love to play the game with this.

I just downloaded the mod and put the unzipped files in the Altgraphics folder. This might be a stupid question, but do I need to activate the graphics in-game somehow to get it started or delete the regular graphics? Oh, by the way, there was already a zip-file in the AltGraphics folder called "Patch 4 Graphics" - should I unzip that as well?

Regards

No, files in AltGraphics override those in Graphics.

No if you prefer to use my mod.

No, I'm sorry.

Now I got it, by mistake I created a new AltGraphics inside the old one - deleted it and it works. Looks great! Finally I can see those blown bridges.

Great work JMass!

Alright I know I'm dumb but for some reason I can not get the attached misc file. Do I have to rename it say by clicking save target as? Thx!

You must rename files replacing the suffix "txt" with "zip" (in this forum it is not possible to upload zip files).

Well problem solved sort of. File was already included with the zip on GS so I'm off the hook. The problem wasn't renaming the file, just how to download it. Cheers.

The links don't appear to be working. I had to reinstall the game and after being advised to delete all my old files for a successful reinstallation, something that didn't work, I find the only copy of my saved, scenarios, graphics and Alt graphics folders is on a hard drive that is no longer installed. What I'd like to find is the entire JMass package, preferably with the square units.

Let me know if you can't find it I'll email it to you. Cheers!

Files are expired, I have uploaded a new zip with inside the last version of my mod and my squared counters:

Jmass to the rescue!

Thank you JMass!!! That was fast. It's amazing. I haven't even wanted to play until I get this installed. I'm getting spoiled.

@JMass,

Thanks for putting together a new link.

Unfortunately, I just tried it and I get stuck in a never ending loop. It tells me that the download link will appear after x seconds, yet when I click on the download link it simply bring me back to the beginning download screen and I have to start the cycle again.

Yet, oddly enough, the count of downloads is incrementing each time I try and it is also updating the time of the last download, but there is no new file on my computer.

No success also for me, try this:

Hi JMass,
 
That did it.  Thanks much!

Just curious. I keep seeing illustrated posts with better looking, larger font for map names, etc. Is this available for download or might I already have the capability to change map font?
