High Res counter MOD (ready to download)

[SIPRES]

ORIGINAL: Hairog

Beautiful Sipres... amazing what you can do with so few pixels. Great job!

Thank you Hairog, the real challenge will be the zoom version, but I will find a way...

[ivanov]

Hell yeah! I'm biting my nails waiting for this mod.

[bootlegger267]

Great work Sipres! I use your current mod and find it fantastic...

[ggrewe]

Wow Sipres - love your work & continued evolution of your counter mod. The new version looks amazing. Thanks very much for your dedicated work. Really looking forward to this mod, when you're finished

Hey SIPRES!

Your counter mod made the game pop for me when I first started playing it, this new set you are working on is evolutionary and organic to the first set. I am looking forward to playing some more campaigns when you get the mod finished, the US looks great.

im glad it's not just me who doesn't like Nato counters, great work

[&o][&o][&o]

all games should have them imo

[SIPRES]

Thanks all

I did a complete rework a kind of "WW2 in colors"
Many changes compared to the original version I post but I believe it really gives a nice look to add colorized silhouettes.

Again still on going work and any comments are welcomed

This looks awesome! Great work, I like the colors and details.

[mroyer]

Agreed, they look superb! Maybe it’s just me, but I’m jtoo fluent with NATO symbols for the ground units to get use to silhouettes for them. but I love the colorized silhouettes for air and naval units.

[TheBattlefield]

Looks great! Now I know why I have not received a unit update for so long... [;)]

[ivanov]

They look gorgeous! The only issue I spotted, is that the last "X" of infantry army symbol, is covered by the soldier. Also, the first mechanized tech level, look like a supply truck, not a combat unit. So I would suggest maybe a riffle image above the truck or a NATO infantry symbol.

[SIPRES]

Here is latest progress

on right side of image you can see "high res" sample version for ground/air/naval
I did add small Natos to mobile units (tanks Recon and Mech)
Remove Nato for Special force (add a Ranger patch instead of)
I like to keep the GMC truck for MECH tech 0 as a kind of early war motorized unit

still to be done:
Field Arty
Heavy Arty
Few navy's
AA's

I couldnt find any USA armored train decent color image, so if anybody got one or knows a Web link, just let me know.

Also still thinking about USA partisan picture (actually a USA Flag with a black silhouette)

Thanks for your comments

[marcus725]

OMG Looks great! I wish I knew how to do this. Is it hard to do? Keep up the great work! Looking forward to the completed product!

The American unit counters are spectacular looking. I only wish they used the 48-star flag that was in use in WW I, WW II, and the Korean War, rather than the modern 50 star flag.

(You can tell which flag is which without having to actually count the stars: the stars on the 21rst century flag are arranged in a checkerboard, and the stars on the earlier flag were set up in orderly rows and columns.)

[TheBattlefield]

Formidable

I would not make it too complicated. I think for the armored train you could use identical bitmaps for all countries...

[ivanov]

Dear God, this is spectacular... When it's finally done, I'm going to play SC forever [X(]

[crispy131313]

These are very impressive!

[PHalen]

Wow!!![X(]
Those are, for lack of a better word: Perfect!

I really like the mini-NATOs on the mobile units!
Have you tried mini-NATOs on arty units? I mean instead of e.g. AT & AA for bit more uniform counter layout.

@ Hubert & Bill: We now need another zoom lever for those amazing his-res counters![:)]

[mroyer]

> I really like the mini-NATOs on the mobile units!

I agree - that's a huge plus from my perspective. Nicely done.
