Some new weapons images

Post by Audie Murphy »

Just some small improvements to the great work done for CCMT:

Versions of infantry weapons
- longer M16, modified stock version, also with M203
- version of AK-74 with a brown clip, modified stock (the metal version can then be used for later AK models, if someone makes more up to date OPFOR)

In progress
- tank cannons, based on the versions Rouge5 made for athe Road to Baghdad. They are in desert color, need to be repainted green. The current cannons are ok but look a bit WW2.

Anyone interested in these new icons?

I would be interested in such images.. I was playing around the other day actually with making similar icons for the AK-74 / Rpk-74 series to denote unit structure differences in Soviet and Russian forces over the coarse of the past few decades. Red-orange Magazine for 1970's to mid 1980's To&E, Plum (red brown) for Mid 80's to Mid 90's, Black for Mid 90's to current. Also to distinguish the AKM from Ak-47 gave it the Red Bakelite magazine in common use during the late 70's and 80's.. Little details I know, as all the weapons are the same game wise but I like it...Me personally I have obliterated the original games unit structures, offed the Nato based stuff and now just have changed the whole thing to model the Soviet-afghan war and Russian-Chechen war...Also working on making a Balkans conflict force structure.

Have to say I love this game for the fact it is so easy (With a bit of patience) to modify it to exactly what one wishes it to be. There is no end really (Aside from some aspects hardwired into the game) to how this game can be modified and altered to whatever level of realism one wishes to place on it.

There is a ton of images Rouge5 made for the game Road to Baghdad and you may even like those better. 
The tank barrels are finished. 
 
The Soviet period is exactly what is needed for the Eastern side, and the Russian-Chechen war has come with some new weapons.

Sounds great[:)]. Do you plan making it a full mod?

Eventually I see this spare time playing around turning into a mod of sorts.

Thanks

I have the images on my HD. Nowhere to upload but maybe I can send them to you?

Added some later versions of AK rifles, AN Abakan as well as the Vintorez and Val rifles and the SVU sniper rifle.

What form are the weapons icons in?

They can be hosted at CSO and CCS if you pass them on.

thanks

They are in tga format, upside down (to be used with Gadgetmunger).

There is a WWII icon library by Rouge5 on CCS, so they can be posted there. I will contact the CCS and CSO.

Rouge5's weapon icon library has been available at CSO since 12 January (beating CCS by almost 3 weeks)

http://www.closecombatonline.com/CSO/in ... erby=dateD


Please note these icons are for use by modders, they are not to be inserted directly into the game.

That is a WWII icon library. Rouge5 made some more icons for Road to Baghdad, as the initial weapons icons and graphics altogether were taken from CC5 "as it is". The Iraqis had MG42 for RPK-47 and wore WWII German airborne uniforms. Rouge5 agreed to make Soviet weapons for RtB and later he also made new icons for the US weapons.
 
There are more icons in the package than RtB actually needs, including many versions of M4 and M16. 
 
This could be something the community mod could use.
