The question is... Is a US priest needed by someone ? Actually priest seemed to be more used by US than by brits that used a the "sexton" a kind aof priest with a different gun as far as I know...
@Celéstial:
The one I will release will replace the brit one in game.

Is it possible to actually replace all of the crew with american troops as It could possibly appear in Afrika mod if tweaked... -ponders-

Crew_Ext in Vehicle EBPS.

Ok. I was just wondering whether the Us crew had the right animations for the different roles.
Cheers
That was one of the first things i did was change the crew to the americans, as luciferum said it was more commonly used by the americans, and supplied to the brits, and they quickly changed to the mobile 25lber "sexton" i belive it is.
Want the SS volks..... NOW!
Ok... ok... I will release SS "volks", BMW and US Stuart this week...

Damn it, i go away for 4 days and i got to browse back a page.BTW, i'm writing this in Word, so don't judge me!
Well have tons of books and info too, mostly from an unhealthy interest in military vehicles, which spawned from a culmination of CoH and militaria collecting. Judging from the pic of that model, it was painted to represent a M3 Stuart from early on in the US Pacific campaign.Well, LD I agree with you about the first Stuart, but the second is good, modellers know what the paint with wich colors, they ahve tons of books and information. And how Luciferum made it, I think it is still too green...
Luciferum, the BMW looks much better now, and i do like how the bike's MG42 isn't heavily rusted like in the stock CoH one, and the camo and even the colour of the leather side bags looks much better now. As for transparency in the spokes, try just erasing the areas, as the BMW i'm looking at ingame is transparent around the spokes, so maybe use the eraser tool, or maybe place a texture over the areas you want o disappear and make it 99% transparent. But thats only a suggestion, i don't know the limits of skinning tools and CoH.
Matter of fact i don't know if the BMW ingame is the standard CoH one or if Halftrack modified it. I do know it's awfully rusty looking with a rusty MG42 and no spare wheel.... might be Halftracks, but that's my comparison.
The M5 Stuart looks much better now too, now that the skins is more faded. I could do with a touch of rust and a tad more washed out, but thats my opinion when compared to Halftracks skins and the Relic ones. It's really fine to just leave it how it is now.
Yeah it was mostly the US which used the Priest, by 1944 the Brits had pretty much completely phased it out of combat by the D-Day landings, replacing it in favour of the Sexton, which was armed with a 25pdr rather than the M2 105mm howiziter. The main issue with the Priest was that the main gun couldn't be fully elevated in the mount, to attain full elevation the gun had to either be in a raised mount or drive the vehicle up onto an incline slope (or entrench the vehicle with the rear end lower). Priests were still being plagued with this problem in Korea years later, as the US seemed reluctant to completely fix the problem.
Yep, as Panzer Jager said, the crew_ext in the vehicles ebps. Animations aren't a problem as their generic to all infantry.Is it possible to actually replace all of the crew with american troops as It could possibly appear in Afrika mod if tweaked... -ponders-

Website may have been down for a while don't know.. seems to be ok now...
Volks within 48h... I promise.
#615
Celestial, i only enjoy the things considered "unhealthy", such as PC Gaming, late nights, heavy social drinking, and running around a field full of tanks and vehicles shooting guns at other people doing likewise (a.k.a. re-enacting).
Heading over to download the US Stuart now, and whats this about a Priest?
#616
LD, That's what I ment.. but next to that, I'm also interested in WWII vehicles, and more detailed stuff about them.
Luciferum, you're a damn good guy.
Hell, I already figured that out half a year ago in december.

New version of HSM is avaible for Download... It includes the new Volks, new BMW R75 and an update of the "SS" Pioneer.
Thanks Luciferum - awesome work!
Quick question - how did you get the BMW motorcycle to appear in Worldbuilder without a driver? I only ask because I'm trying to include an abandoned motorcycle in a map.
Cheers,
GG

Checked out the US STuart, and i got to say, spot on! No need to edit this anymore, i think it's great how it is.
And BTW, the motorbike i used as a comparison to yours is the default Relic one (halftrack didn't do one AFAIK), with the rusty MG, no spare tyre and transparent spokes.
Don't suppose you could upload the BMW R75 up as a seperate download so i could take a look at if? What i'm curious about is wether you can get a motorbike without the sidecar ingame? Does anyone know if there's one hidden in the files somewhere, or would i have to do it with extensive modding and skin editing?
I have a bug with Bren Carrier Texture with the last version.
@ Lethal: Ok... I will have a deep look at the side car ...
@ Leclerc : sounds there's a "marking" texture trouble... how did you install the mod ? have you used "my" xxx_tc.rgt file of the Bren ?
@GreenGriffon: Well.... I'm using NIS module of worldbuilder... the one needed to make "movies"... so I'm not sure you can use the bike alone for a map...
The SS Volks skin is awsome, good work!
I install the mod with CMS 0.5.5 and not modify your files. When i use the stand alone skins (Bren Carrier HSM v0.36), i haven't this problem.
@Leclerc:
Damned you're right !!!! I will fix it soon.
******************
To fix the problem, just copy the content of the Brenv0.36 from the standalone downloads over the mod v0.38 and pack to a new ww2Art.sga... the problem disappears.
Sorry for this trouble.
******************
I will release an update tomorrow of Historical Skin Mod v0.38. This will include the "Blue Bren's bug" fix and an update of the R75 with transparent wheels and a cleaner MG42...
Thank you Lethal Dosage and Leclerc for having reported those troubles.
*******************
Historical Skin Mod update v0.38a is now online

Very good work!
Despite the prospect of being annoying I would like to ask you if you have made any advance with your Kingtiger skin?

No progress on king tiger but working on panther... kind of training for KT...
Here is a preview...
I'm working now on zimmerit... you can see a preview of the result with squarred pattern zimmerit which was used quite often on Panther.
Hoho...nice work there. Can't wait till you remake all units beautiful luciferum. Keep it up.

Nice Panther
I like this camo
#631
OMFG! The R75 looks absolutely awesome now, and the transparent wheels really add to it! Now where's that panther? All i see is a field of grass and trees!
hi how do I use these they didn't work for game itself when I copy and pasted them in places but I installed a mod and they worked with it but not all of skins appeared the motor bike skin didn't change but nice job overall

With so few informations, quite hard to answer... I send u back to the skin instalation guide on my web site or about the use of skin installer on other threads...

I will be on vacation for a while so if some people can help IRGC it would be great !
I loooooooove the Volks skin ! Great Skins
Here is a shot of the second version of the modified panther for the "wehrmacht" faction.
Oh damn.... soooo many great Panther Skins... and only 2 positions in CoH. ^^
#637
Love the Panther! It just looks awesome! When will there be a release?
That looks awesome!
More!
Would be quite nice if people would start to make screenshots of their skins from the front, side and top of the vehicle, not only a classical ingame-screen...
I will release this skin asap.... but the idea is I do finish the panzer elite version of the Panther too before releasing it...
I will also apply zimmerit on Jagdpanther.
Other shots:
Nice
Do you make more Skins for the Marder too?
Hi again...
Since my Panther seems to be quite expected and I don't want to release an update of my mod with only the new panther, I also made an update of the Jagdpanther: adding zimmerit and shortening side skirts.
I just have to finish the PE panther skin and the mod update will be released.
#643
Looks much better!
looks pretty cool
Nice Zimerit pattern ,very good ,but i thing you should change the camo pattern of jagdpanther
nice jagdpanther
#647
The Jagdpanthers camo liiks great, and toning the brightness down from what it was originally really improves it and makes the paint look more worn and sun bleached. Good job!
Where are those Commando skins you've been promising to do? lol
I'm part of the Pofia mod team looking for commando skins. If we do use them, we will give you full credit on the forum and release notes.
Here is some information to help you:
Info on Commandos
6 Commando
Pics
Their Combined Operations badge
My main concern is that they should be wearing Green Berets in the game.
Thanks in advance
