By the way, did you manage to find a way to get a "Major" when selecting squad like "Company HQ" and "Platoon HQ" because I checked and the rank is indeed in the "GameGadg.gdg" file and there are even sounds in "*. sfx" files.

I don't think there is a way to do implement the major as it is now, I've never seen a major used in any of the CC games I've played (except in COI). But you could edit the game to use a major's rank graphic and voice file instead of captain, but that wouldn't really be the same, and the voice file for "The Major has been wounded" (file no. 0032) will not be used in the game.
This could be done quite easily in LSA, WAR or TLD since they use several possible nation files. This way you could have one separate nation with these minor edits and only use it for company command squads.

Sorry for the slow reply, but you know: the weather is wonderfull, the birds are singing etc etc (not to mention 30+ celcius indoors!)

Progress has been slow during the summer but not halted.
Those damned unit card pics for the germans are coming along at an painfully slow pace.
At the moment I have put that aside to work on the vehicle wrecks as many are the ugly stock ones and some are missing for the new vehicles which will cause crasches if that particular vehicle wreck was ment to be present on the battlefield.

When that is done Im thinking of releasing a beta for you all to test while I finish the small things.
Any god idea where I can upload it? Unzipped its about 1,62 GB.

I get the feeling, dj! Wink

Sadly I have nothing to show for yet, maybe some ingame screens of the new maps?
Or screens from a test campaign playing as the allies?

Alrighty then, here is the first map: LZ-Z Renkum Heath
Map by southerland, coding and tree planting by me.

The scenario: A company from KGr Krafft has located one of the LZs and is attempting to delay the allied advance.

(This battle ain't in the GC as KGr Krafft is busy at Wolfheze. The company who did attack the LZ didn't stay very long and fell back to Krafft due to fear of being encircled)

The battle is over and my troops made very little progress. Most of the time they were suppressed by the enemy MG fire. The british could shoot pretty much where he wanted to: the map is flat after all and there is very little cover.

But thats how a landing zone is supposed to look like Wink

Next map coming soon.

Small update.

KGr Reinhold's Pz IVs were removed and they recived 2 StuG IIIGs. The Panzer IVs will later show up as reinforcements.
This is so simulate the ferry crossing operations the 10.SS were conducting at the Pannerden. They could only send 1 tank across at a time.

I did a check on the mortars as I felt they were too accurate. Their acuraccy rating were set to 252 (50%?) resulting in pretty tight clusters of explosions around the enemy with devastating results. They have now been lowered to 33 and tested.
Check the attached images ( in wrong order ofc) to see the results.

400m.JPG

Description:

Twice the range, just blindfire. Very few shells lands in the green area where I put the FIRE command dots. Red circles shows two concentrations of detonations about 30-40 meters from the green area. Note the yellow zones.

200m.JPG

Description:

Range to target is 200meters (minimum range for the medium mortars). Firing with 4 3-inch and 4 2-inch mortars. Results are pretty clear: at close ranges the mortars are still pretty accurate.

Thanks Gunsche. Are you using smaller maps similar size as original CC2? Actually I would prefer smaller maps - hope that can improve AI gameplay, similar to original CC2. Plus it should save a bit of time for creating the maps. How is the Strategic map looking? Keep it up...we are all looking forward to this mod!

The new maps are of varying sizes. Some of them are remakes of the original CC2 maps, so they are pretty small compared to some of the LSA maps.

Please observe: I have NOT made any of these maps. I have only planted trees and coded them.
All graphical-wise work was mady by southerland.

Good idea, no need to reinvent the wheel, might as well re-use CC2 maps. I thought they looked a lot smaller than LSA maps.
