And how about a background something like this?

I like the new one

@Vic

I would like to help Gary out with these graphics. I think I will start by making a modified version of newdawn2.at2 and incorporate the graphics into an atzip file.

Is there documentation on how to make a proper atzip file anywhere?

An atzip is simply a standard zip file (rename one zip and you'll see). Just get your folder locations correct and you're good to go. I simply create my folders, put my files in them and then zip them up. I then rename the zip to atzip.

I was snooping around the editor and this is what I just found.

You can use the editor or simply construct on your own as I described.

I have packaged up Gary's graphics, along with some others, and made them available as an atzip file at the Scenario Bank. I will keep the mod updated as the graphics are revised.

More info can be found here.

First thing I notice is that this does not use anewdawn3.at2 with unit templates and auto reinforcements. Nice work nevertheless but I don't see myself playing anewdawn2 games anymore.

Unfortunately I only have access to the Steam version. Once the new version is available on Steam I will be updateing anewdawn3 in the same manner.

If only Matrix could see fit to give me a Matrix copy to match my Steam copy I could get to work on this pronto. [;)]

The public beta seems stable so it won't be to long!

I had something weird happen today when playing. I had saved a game, closed it went into editor, then open the scenario, then open the saved game of said scenario. Made my corrections, then tried to save it. When I would click on save, then move to try and save it that whole section disappeared, and only the unit image and NATO symbol was showing. It did this 2-3 times but finally I was able to save it. I don't know what happened or anything but that is a first for me.

Was messing around trying to create an Operation Barbarossa scenario today. I ended up creating subformation graphics for Romanians, Hungarians, Finnish, and Bulgarians; including Bazooka, SMG, Staff, Rifle and Cavalry. Attached are versions without background. Next post I will attach SFTs with backgrounds for anyone interested.

Here are SFT graphics for Bulgaria and Finland with backgrounds.

Here are Hungary and Rumania with backgrounds.

And last but not least, here is a preview of the files. These are without backgrounds. The backgrounds basically have the same units only with a field in the background.

Also, for anyone interested, attached is a file full of different flags of most of the main belligerents of WW2.

Preview of some of the flags.

Interesting flags and national icons. I might just take them

Any chance you could be talked into Polish and Spanish (Nationalist and Republican) troops as well?

Yeah, those would be great
