Are those wrecks coded onto the map? Its more wrecks than I've seen on any map.

It's a Der Ost Front campaign. Pretty normal.

Over fifteen days for an operation the wrecks pile up.

I was thinking of trying to port in the wrecks and some of the tanks from Stalingrad for CC5. I'm not sure exactly how to go about transferring between game versions though. Are there different bit rates and sizes to change?

To change out the graphics is easy enough. Just unpack and change the old ones for your new 16bit tga images. A limitation has been that you could only replace a wreck that was already present, with a new graphic with the same name. There is totally just 11 wrecks or so. - Good news is I recently discovered that the WHeader file in the Wrecks.zfx can be hex edited to allow for more wrecks.

So the fun really begins if you want to add more wreck types than originally in CC3/COI. Thats when you would have to hex edit the WHeader file. Steve recently gave us the format of the file so it is well within reach to add different kinds of wrecks.

See this thread for some info on the WHeader file:

If I get round to backporting wrecks the Stalingrad parking lot is going to look a lot better.

Maybe it would be worth adding a Hoff unit to the game in the Steiner/Ivan tradition? While switching over the artillery spotters to crewed weapons there's likely to be a spare unit space.

You are as old as you feel; so about 60 when I wake up, otherwise 32 Razz

I used to have a great time making the Hinds fire flamethrowers in Red Alert.

No StuGs though sadly...

Talking of StuGs though:
