Hi everybody!

I have something to tell you...

There should be about 46 new winter unit icons in the new H2H version! I put here only an example, since I want to leave some secrecy and surprise around the new H2H. First I did not think of editing this many icons...it was just experimental... I think a great deal of this inspiration came from Rockin' Harry's great Ardennes '44 scenario!

The new wintericons are:

Soviet Union/Finland:
T-28
JS-1
JS-2
T-34/85
JSU-122
JSU-152
SU-152
SU-122
SU-85
T-26
T-26a

Germany:
Koenigstiger
Tiger IE
Panther
Jagdpanther
PzKpfw IV Ausf. C, D, G, J
PzKpfw III Ausf. E, G, J, L, N
PzKpfw II Ausf. C
PzKpfw I Ausf. B
PzKpfw 38
StuG III Ausf. B, F, F/8, G
StuH 42
StuG IV

SdKfz-221

SdKfz-251/1
SdKfz-251/2 GRW
SdKfz-251/10
SdKfz-250/1
SdKfz-250/9
SdKfz-253 Beobachtung

Absolutely amazing!!

Great job guys!!

I'm quite sure that Panzer Leo can answer this!
I want to credit Pz Leo: he has been assembling my icons into shp format!

Without some kind of programming, no, it will most likely be a shape-swapping deal, you will probably need a seperate folder for winter, and one for stock, where you swap them out as needed! Clunky, but there is nothing in the programming to tell the exe to pick shps from any folder other than SHP, and then, also the new files.

While looking thru some updated files I received from Rockin Harry, I found a few winter buildings that he added:

Yes, that's the only setback of this project, but not really a big deal. If you want to play a winter battle you will have to "Alt-Tab" from SP and double-click the installer provided in the H2H patch...you just gotta make sure that you extract to the right folder, but that's about it...then you're ready to go for some real cool looking East-Front battles

Yeah baby!!!:D Good work PL!!

tracer, Rockin' Harry & PL (and any other graphics artists): nice buildings there again! I think that together we have been really succesful in this new graphics update! :p
Just waiting for the new cool winter battles....
