With the profileration of new quality skins available I have a question to the devs.

It would be useful to be able to add skins to a scenario or campaign folder and then add these skins to on-map or spawned units, player- or AI-owned.
These could really add immersion to scenarios and campaigns.

Skins should be expanded to air and naval units as well. The various camos changed quite a bit during the war, also for these units.

This is 2 skins with a not historic camouflage. First is early desert camo, second is early camo 39/40

Hello Erik. I agree with you.

I discovered that there is a limit of 23 skins not to be exceeded. Another skins here : standardized desert camo 41 and standardized desert camo 42. Here is the result

@nono (I hope I can address you that way )
Very well-chosen colors.
I like your projects, maybe I would lighten German Early Camo 39/40 a bit.

I think that there is no limit with the number of skins. I have actually 84 active skins
Be carefull with the name. Do not use the caracter "_" in the name. Ex "german_22_land_germany.png" does not work.

Your skin german_22 is too dark.

-Your original "german_22" skin :
-Your "german_22" skin with brightness +20 (Paint.net) :
-Your "german_22" skin with brightness +30 (Paint.net) (maybe the best ?):

Viking PzRgt orange camo darker (for Terminator )
Vehicles on the both sides left for comparison

1. green - 7th kompanie, II. Abteilung, 5th SS-PzRgt, 5th SS-Viking Panzer Div., eastern outskirts of Warsaw, early August 1944
2. orange - an unidentified unit from the 5th SS-PzRgt, 5th SS-Viking Panzer Div., Warsaw surroundings, August 1944
The Viking division destroyed 107 Soviet tanks, for the price of 6 own tanks lost during the battles in Poland in early August 1944

Green, definitely green

and now?
I corrected this camouflage (compare with the original )

I was just saying that if there was a choice between the green or the orange, I would definitely vote green. Just not crazy about the orange But kudos still for all the work you put in

For terminator. I find how to modify brightness. I've downloaded Paint.net. Thanks for the solution. I show you an image who explain my limitation of skins : 23/23

The attachment $matches[2] is no longer available

84 skins (In reality many tests)

You're right my fiend (if I can call you so). When the game and the answer are in English, it's very difficult to me. But, i try your solution and great, it's work. Thanks for all.

Need some Italian patterns.

Are all of these historical camouflages or are you experimenting now, kondi? There are so many, it feels like every tank was painted different colour in ww2!

Hello. Answer to my question by Kondi : Camo for Italians doesn't work, aircraft and warships - the game designers didn't foresee the use of camouflage (only land vehicles and guns), at least for this moment. Also, infantry units don't have the possibility to change uniforms. Wait.

I try to make my camouflages as compatible as possible with the historical ones.
While creating them, I'm based on real ones, I think that another path doesn't make sense.
When it comes to German painting of vehicles, it was very modest until 1942.
The real development of camouflages is the battle of Kursk.
As part of one large tactical unit, which is a division or even an armored regiment, the variety of camouflage was enormous.
It can be said that each company had its own painting.
The truth is also that other patterns were painted on artillery units vehicles and guns, so here's a bit simplified.

Ferdinand N°150100
The last one Ferdinand: the Ferdinand N°150100 Niebelungen
The vehicle always carries its rust-proofing red livery and was covered by the workers of the factory of grafitis in the chalk.

Example:
camo used by German on Italian front
1st battalion (abteilung), 4th Pz-Rgt, Italy, May-June 1944
