Wow!!![X(]
Sorry about my long absence.
I got engulfed in the Napoleonic era until I overdosed & took a long gaming/modding break.
So I didn’t even notice when Warplan Pacific released.
I had no idea the “Packed WP NATO counters” mod had such dedicated users!

@ OxfordGuy3 & ppmd: Thanks!!!
I’m very flattered & grateful by your efforts to keep this mod alive!
(I can also imagine how pissed off you must have been, so sorry about that...)
The release of must-buy Warplan Pacific has scratched my itch again so I’d be happy work with you to improve the mod further.
Meanwhile, you’ve both done great jobs with adjusting the mod in line with the ways I would have done.
Ppmd’s WP Pacific mod looks great! Glad you found the USMC counter.[8D]

I'll to post an “official” version 3.2 of the WP mod later today.

Yes, I’ve only used 4 counter colors for all minor nations (with Poland being the he only exception).
I don’t think more counter colors add much, and many people have problems distinguishing between especially green colors.
And I do feel it’s important to keep the counters clean, simple & easy to distinguish.

By the way:
I use Inkscape before exporting to Paintnet png files.
(Over-kill to use vector graphics I know but great fun…😊)

Cheers!

PHalen! Nice to see you back on the forums. I love your mod and love that you had already done the work for all the Pacific nations. I personally like the colors you used and think they work great together (in WarPlan Europe and Pacific). That you are an artist is evident in your work. All I did was hack at your mod using paint 3d. Very happy to see you back in Warplan. I just found your version 3.2 and looking forward to any future work you may do!

I'm using it with Warplan Pacific, and when in the fog of war, the counters are not displaying correctly, they just appear as these small black dots.

I dont know how to add images, if someone tells me how I'll post a screenshot.
