Can you tell more about it. Are all soviet heroes missing or only a few? Is it a bug that makes all heroes missing or are just a few pictures missing?

Greetings PHCAS

Just a few pictures are missing : viewtopic.php?p=956521#p956521

Will there be conflicts in MODS pack after 1945 ? Many former SS joined the foreign Legion in exchange for new documents and bank accounts !

The Legion was tight with supplies — and they continued to fight under the French tricolor in the uniform of the Waffen‑SS.

Graphic update and extension of all Ju-87 Stuka units
Bruno from France is making desert camo for the Afrika Korps units
Tony from the UK is making more DLC GC scenarios/campaigns ready for PAK mod use.
More of them in the next update also updates from previous ones with corrections of some errors.

Greetings PHCAS

Hi Everyone
I am still working my way through the GC campaigns, I am currently working on the GC45 West campaign. When that is finished the first draft of the GC should be complete.
The Afrika Korps campaign as been finished, and as Phcas mentioned, new desert icons are being produced for these scenarios.
There was an error in the first drafts of the GC39,40,41 and Soviet campaigns with the white cross insignia German armoured units turning up in post polish scenarios and black cross insignia German armoured units turning up in the Polish scenarios. Hopefully this is now corrected.
After the GC45West campaign is completed I will continue working on the US Corps scenarios.
Best Wishes
TonyAfan

For people who wants to understand how we make the MOD or who will do some modding themself, some explanation, part one.

HOW TO SHOW PHOTOS AND MOVIES IN PANZER CORPS

It is possible to place photos (.PNG) or small movies (.GIF) in Panzer Corps. The photos and movies you want to use must be placed in the "Panzer Corps/UI" folder. What you have to know about your photo or movie is the name and the size of it. For example "Photo1.png 240x320 pixels" or "Movie1.gif 250x300 pixels".

To let a photo or movie show up in the game you must add a "text line" somewhere. This textline can be placed on various locations depending on the moment the photo or movie has to show up in the game.

If you want to add a photo or movie into a briefing of a scenario (start or end of a scenario), the textline has to be placed in a briefing file (.PZBRF). For the normal scenarios of the game you will find these briefing files in the "Panzer Corps/Data/Briefings" folder. But for add on campaigns it can be "Panzer Corps/DLC/GC39/Data/Briefings" for example. The files can be edited with "notepad". The files have a letter behind the scenario name from A till D. For example:

ScenarioA
ScenarioB_decisive
ScenarioC_marginal
ScenarioD_loss

ScenarioA will be shown at the start of the scenario as a briefing and ScenarioB C and D are debriefings at the end of the scenario. If you open a briefing file with notepad you can add a photo (.PNG) or movie (GIF) by placing the next text line in the briefing:

<CENTER><p><img src="Photo1.png" width="420" height="320"></p><CENTER>

Do not forget that the photo/movie with the correct name has to be in the "Panzer Corps/UI" folder or it will never show up.

For a movie the textline will look like this:

<CENTER><p><img src="Movie1.gif" width="420" height="320"></p><CENTER>

There is a limit to the size of a photo/movie. If the size is too big it will not fit well with the game layout. 420 x 320 is a good size.


If you want photos or movies to show up in the gameplay you have to use the game editor. The textlines you have to use are the same as in the example above.

Open the editor and open Edit/Scenario Params/Scripts

In most scenarios you will see some text lines. If you edit or make an "Actions" "Display message" you can add or edit a text and add the text line

<CENTER><p><img src="Photo1.png" width="420" height="320"></p><CENTER>

like in the briefing files to add a photo/movie to the text. If you make the text file without any other text only the photo/movie shows up.

By using the editor you can make all kinds of choices when a message (photo/movie) shows up in the scenario. This can be fixed at a given game turn but also more dynamic like if a named unit arrives in a hex or units cross a river or if a unit gets destroyed and a lot of other triggers.

As far as I know no winter camo units available in Pak Mod have you seen any in any of the scenarios you have played?

It's strange like there is an operation in winter, but there is no camouflage, it's sad (

Only 29 SU-26 self-propelled artillery units were built. All of them were destroyed in the battles. But they managed to restore one for the museum with the help of search engines and restorers.

Hi Vano2004

I am only involved with scenario editing and map creation, I have made a few simple canal icons in my time but found the job quite time consuming. I don't know if the Pak Mod team are looking to create winter camo icons in the future but if they are it would be a very big task.
I am waiting to see how the new desert icons will look in the next update.

TonyAfan

Yes, I understand, I hope that over time they will make winter camouflage)

Hi volks! I would kindly ask you to make some skins for existing Italian airplanes. Mostly tropical, but a few normal ones too. It would be great with the same patterns, as from Battlefield Europe, for example SM.79, or Cant1007Z
With your talents, probably for you it is a routine. Thank you!

Tropical:
- G.50
- Br.20
- CR.25
- Ba.88
- SM.81
- Ju 87 B (Done by Guille)
- Re.2003

Normal skin:
- Ba.65

Very nice! Great icons of the wide spread variations of the 110 (and 210) destroyer family. But what is the Bf 110T? Sounds completly Fantasy .
