Great dirty looking look on the Volks there. Since you're using Cross of Iron as one of your refs, why not make a Volks variation with the Splinter pattern helmet cover, as seen in the movie, and maybe one with chickenwire attached to the helmet?

Well, since the results are encouraging all the WH skins will receive the same treatment cause otherwise volks and grens will stand out too much.
Yeah, i don't think it's gonna happen this weekend. I'm using trying to finish off some skins instead

These Heer skins are nery good ,I like the dirt they look like they have all the dust from the air bombardment in Normandy , and the mountain troops are very good ,are you mixing the leader with something ? A good way to have the proper mp gear is to mix the volks with the old (beta ) fallshrimjager from BotB or Normandy mod, I have use this mix for my Luftwaffe squad Nco ( in my skinpack and my individual upload) and the result is very good.
Thanks guys,
Geo@ There is no actual model mixing, this is a straight up volk model. I'm not good at model mixing to be fair so I'm keeping things rather straight forward and simple. Also, I thought the only model with MP44 clips where the PE tankbusters and everything else had MP40 clips?
I can remove the Kar98 ammo pouches...but it looks cool on them so...I'm not sure...

The KCH are very original and look badass!
I have notice a flickering in the face of the 2nd pict and i have made suck hypothetic thought about mixing. You are right about the Tankbuster ammo but they are mixed with the volks model only with the medic variation, that was the reason I suggest the other model : ) . You can mixed the tankbuster with the original knight/officer but you can not have the field cap . A very good combination that I 'm working is the new pionner/Tiger crew model with m44 uniform and with the proper variation ( look at the rolevaration thread , I have posted there what this is) which will be able to have a M44 uniform with field cap and the Tankbuster ammo.
I love these KCH.Amazing work.
"Fire and maneuver.That's the name of the game."
You can't...yet. They're not ready nor released

Nice skins there once again!
P.S. the Officer has no gun![]()
Yeah, the officer i think is playing that old 'small violin' singing...'why doesn't anyone ever build me??' LMFAO
#518
hehehe, yeah indeed, but I always build him! Supervision <3.
Amazing Heer skins . The dirt is very special ,as I said before they had eat all the Normandy D-day bombardment dust. But even though they still was taught enough.. And the splinter cammo on uniforms are very accurate.
I want have this pe gren skin!
no link for this skin?
![]()
I never released this and I don't believe I have it any more cause I wasn't happy with it. Sorry
I might try and find it if/when I re-visit PE skins
#522
Is there any chance to see these infantry skins released this weekend?
what is so special about this weekend???Is there any chance to see these infantry skins released this weekend?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
@Widowmaker1 my offer still exists. ( Me JENA koliva kidia o filos mas!!!!!!!!!! this is an ancient phrase from the Down of 10000.)
Celestial@ I simply don't know.
Geo@ Mate I'll sort out what we discussed tonight. Thanks
#525
@Georider: Because this weekend I got three days off (including monday), so I get full attention for modding!
@widowmaker1: Your KCH skins look very good, keep up the good work and I hope you will release them soon. But I also have 2 things concerning their Feldmütze (Cap):
1. Normally the Gebirgsjäger wear the Edelweis emblem only on the left side of the Feldmütze. Is this possible to be skinned? On the screenshots it looks like they have it on both sides.
2. The Edelweis should be a bit smaller. I will attach a photo of it.
As I was at the Gebirgstruppe '94/'95 myself, I would be glad if you could change that.
#527
CoolCat, regarding Edelweis and the Volks M43... no it's not possible as the Volks cap only has one side skinned, with the other side mirrored over.
Widowmaker, i love the Grens and the KCH, espcially the KCH! I think they'd look even better though if you could mix them to have STG44 pouches and/or the P08 holster. If your not confident enough to do the model mixing yourself, PM me with a link to the base skin and i'd be happy to give it a go!
@lethal dosage: I just thought about that it could be mirrored. What a pity. But maybe it's possible to resize it to a smaller one.
I would use these KCH anyway, even if it's not possible. I just hope that it works with mixing these KCH with the Historical Skins Mod.
The grenadiers and mg are the best infatry skins I have ever seen they look very realistic because of the dirt on clothes and dust in faces exellent chosing of the clothes and perfect size of the helmet mark. Nicely done helmet 2.
10/10
Edit: And why u are making them so nice maybe u could throw in a real dirty and maybe rusty mortar 2 ?
Damnit, those infantry skins are the best ones I've seen up to date! I hope you are going to do most of them :] (allied/axis).
Looks awesome!
New PzIV WIP to go along with the new WH skins

Very good zimmerit approach and the camouflage pattern is excellent , try to make the base color yellow/sand with more green and perhaps more lightness , I think the result will be also great but I like the approach very much on the turret shield zimmerit
Thanks mate! I still need to add zimmerit to the gun base, sort out dirt and more weathering. I do prefer a more vivid sand colour unlike other skinners like Luciferum/Ginguru/Wagner and I'm sticking with it where as theirs looks more like a sort of 'pale stone/beige' colour

Total agree with you , i have also used the both combination
#535
Looks awesome, but I'd prefer some smoke dust on the gun barrel.
Celestial@yeah I want to make the gun barrel black too...just not sure where it's located on the skin file at the moment LOL
It's not hard to find it.
And you should change the skirts spc in the final release, cos' atm they look like they were once thoma![]()
You should remove the "Balkenkreuz" inside the turretarmor. Otherwise great work. I like it.
Kind regards
Yeah, the spc file file will be the standard one. I noticed the 'squares' from some angles but thought I'd replace it when it came to releasing it. Plus...for my own use I'll have a version with your thoma as well for the 'ambush' version of my P4 lol.
Unfortunately, I can't remove them from inside the armour because they are mirrored

Part of a mod I believe. I do run a seperate v2.3 for skinning as it makes my life easier
@Widowmaker1 also it is easy in 2.502 , yes the Thoma shield is a very good add on from @GnigruG and it is a MUST have situation in this game, I remember in older version 2.301 I have made 2 panzer IV build able with the same attributes, one with side plates shield and one with thoma. A very good result.
As I have said before it is a big benefit using each other ideas for making the skins and the view result of the game better. Also many skins much more competition for a better result , a big benefit for moders and for community.
Does anybody know the name of the mod for these vet icons? I never had them in the german version of the game and would like to implement them, if i can figure out where these icons should be placed in.
hi great work mate , but the link on the first page dont work, hope you can fix it thanxs in advance

Cool. I'm using the Cuckoo in my mod for a 1 limited off-map reinforcement for the British. Nice work!
Yeah, a german Sherman.
Yeah, I think I'll make the firefly/sherman but since I don't have a mod I don't know if anyone would use em sadly
@Celestial,I guess Royal engies are gonna have a nice heavy not just the churchills hey? LOL

@Widowmaker1: I got a problem getting the Cuckoo working for the British without replacing the Wehrmacht skin. The problem is the Panther uses a Wehr or PE state, so if I apply it, I get the Axis skin or the PE skin. I tried alot of things, but I either get the skin from: Wehrmacht, Panzer Elite, a fancy pink one, a fancy white, or a missing .rgm blue box.
I first copied a Wehrmacht Panther folder into Commonwealth\Vehicles, and then copied the cuckoo files in there. The .rgm looks very different from the normal Panther's .rgm, which I find strange.
Could you make a modified folder (with correct files) that will work when I put the folder in Commonwealth\Vehicles for me? I am a advanced and experienced coder, but I can't find the problem. I'd very apprieciate if you did this for me.
And by the way, yes I did add it to the Royal Engineers tree, but sine I removed the Crocodile (it's now if an upgrade for the regular Churchill) I got a free spot for the Cuckoo.
