I used the one horse as scout. Two horse as mounted troops (not regular cavalry). Three horse I used in the cavalry transport (mounted infantry on the move).

There is Nbw 41 and 42 both. See my mod. Both have new model as well!

I liked the remarks about too much Sake/Schnaps :lol:

Cool unit tests. Yeah, many (special) infantry animations look still weird. And especially the cavalry units are not getting any love - you know what I mean. :wink:

And I think I'm gonna change the Endsieg campaign tree like you suggested. It's just one scen after all, no "real" branching like with Sandstorm. Thanks for the "do-it-yourself" screenshots!

PS: And also thanks for recommending the paint.net software. It's much easier than the one I've used before and it's free. :D

Soviet Conscripts have a very strange Effect Sequences Attack :shock:

On the 4 soldiers only 2 shoot, the other two twiddle their thumbs :shock:
The soldier n°0 can shoot twice kneeled and the soldier n°2 shoot after getting up :o

:arrow: My suggestion : shorter version (deletion of useless sequences) but better with 3 men shooting this time :!:
Only the real Soviet Conscript (soldier n°1) twiddle his thumbs...

The whole Soviet unit roster is quite unbalanced and full of stat bugs and inconsistencies at the moment. Many copy&paste errors and such. I've deliberately left them out when fixing the stock units stats in my mod. There should be a Soviet DLC soon and then they hopefully get some more attention.

Yes. Although, as we've learned, "time is relative". :wink:

You know I'm no history buff, but from the information I was able to "assimilate" so far, my personal theory, purely speculative of course, would rather point to an "Allied" type of DLC, to be honest. But the Soviets will come, eventually - that I do believe - firmly.

I agree with you: first the Allies and then the Soviets (last?) as for PanzerCorps. So we might wait a while before we get the Soviets. In the meantime, it is very easy with a freeware like Notepad++ to correct the file EffectSequences.txt :idea:

PS: all the last download links will be found in the 1er post :!:

It’s just a test, not hard to do using the mod Admiral's Alternate Arsenal but unfortunately given my 3D knowledge = null, without texture I can do nothing :cry:

A last test to answer the question : with the same mdb file, is it possible to create different units using the mod Admiral's Alternate Arsenal :?:

Yeah, those are the model files that have to be ported from a 3D software.

What's up with you and the KV tanks? :wink:
But here you go with the KV-2 AT (stock) version for you to reskin.
( :arrow: Should work with the same texture as the ART model. The model has two weapon points (MG & main cannon) and you can use the vanilla firing effects)

PS: It would be nice if you could share your German KV2 texture and unit pics, so I can include this "Beutepanzer" into my mod, too.

Ferdinand VS Elefant :

Elefant has better statistics against the infantry :

Why :?:
Because the Elefant has a MG (difficult to see I admit it) :

Ferdinand VS Elefant :

Elefant has a MG (difficult to see) but the bug is that the Elefant has the same weaponEffect that the Ferdinand :

[AT_90mm_01]
0.0 AT_Shell 0
0.0 AT_90mm_01 0
0.7 BarrelSmoke 0
1.0 damage

No MG Effect for the Elefant :shock:

The Effect Sequence for the Elefant with MG exists in the file EffectSequences :

If you correct the good weaponEffect , the Elefant will use his MG:
