To rename open cmd prompt and type ren AnShip*.bmp AnSide*.bmp

ORIGINAL: BigJ62

Ok noticed a small problem, shouldn't the backs be named AnSidexxxx.bmp instead of AnShipxxxx.bmp?

That's not a small problem, that's a BIG problem... Didn't even notice it when I DL'ed myself this morning.[:(]

OOOpppsss, too right! Looks like the factory got a wire crossed. Fix is on the way. In the meantime, just do a global search & replace. Sorry about that.

New file with correct names sent to Spook & Rogue. Sorry about that.

Work around for those comfy with the command prompt, you can do the following:

In Windows, drag & drop the AlliedShip_Back folder into the top level directory so it's just under C:\

open command prompt and type: cd\ [enter]

then type: cd\alliedship_back [enter]

make sure you are in the right place by typing: dir [enter]

if so, type: ren AnShip*.* AnSide*.* [enter]

to verify, type: dir [enter]

go back to windows and drag & drop the AlliedShip_Back folder back under the Art folder in the game tree.

What a cluster! Real sorry about that. Should have the fix up soon.

IJN stuff looking great too - thanks for all hard work - gradually working my way through Allies with my preferred background and flags - again thanks

Thanks undercover, and thank you for your patience. I hope Mrs.undercover didn't whack you too hard.

Wouldn't you know it; we tried to get everything possible right, but at the bitter end, at the mechanical yank'em, crank'em stage, we have a cluster like this. Oh well, totally my fault

Ciao. JWE

A "catastrophuck" as it were... By the way, I totally support the idea, posted elsewhere, that submarines should have full-hull shils...

BTW, thank you very much for noticing the error and alerting people to the issue. It's people like you that make this work.

As to the full-hull shils, I personally agree, but that is outside the scope of the 'art replacement' set. There is so much to do that we cannot afford to make any 'additions?' 'enhancements?' that fall outside the scope of the stock art. If we were to do one, then we must do all, and we have neither the time nor the brief to do so. I'm sure you understand.

Frankly, I think the people who want the full-hull shils would be very well served by DL-ing fremen's sub files. This project was never intended to to be all things to all people, and clearly fremen has some beautiful art that is very well suited here.

Wasn't me that noticed it, and I do understand what you mean. I use fremen's files, plus some extra ones for some of the other non-stock subs in my mod...

OK, Monsieur le Spooky has advised that the new files are on his system. Merci Marc, et les meilleurs voeux.

Amazing work, you guys -- major kudos to all the artists involved!

What, did I read that there was a temporary recall on the art?  I want my money back.

The fixed package is up now...

I need a Dave on white camouflage, and a seagull on blue... any idea where to get a side drawing? thanks

Well, seems the Allied stuff is finally settled in. So, begins the Japanese. Panel 1 is done, hers's a sample.

i saw the thread in bold - and thought oh no, after all the bleating for the updates theres going to be the IJN now, and im still copying and pasting the Allies like a good 'un!!!!

They look awesome, bring em on, cant get enough - ill copy and paste til the sun comes up [&o]

i dont suppose you could just send me that blank panel eh? i wont tell

Still bashing on in the tutorial scenario - played the tutorial as head to head, just getting used to it now as the Allies, all on my own, no bits of tutorial anywhere - and i just sunk most of these guys in a huge battle off Guam

Amazing, simply amazing! [&o]

don't know if this is exactly the right way to describe it, but...

Woof, Cathartes, a man of many talents.

So, the latest update; almost finished with panel-2, just a few more to go. Panel 3 is mostly the subs and those were done about a month ago, so I would guess the Japanese should be ready next week. Sample below.

JWE

This is going to be great...[&o]
