looking for a mod
 

At some point in the last few years someone posted a mod where they turned Icons into what looked like cardboard game counters...........now........I'm not interested in that for the game but I wanted to check some info that had been provided at the time BUT...... I've searched both forums and I can't seem to find anything that resembles those posts...........does anyone else remember that for either game. ??..........I can't recall if it was for WW2 or MBT but leaning more to WW2

I had Freds windows programs but I couldn't find them on my HD and I recalled you posted links to them...........after I had DL'd them and knew what they were called I ended up finding the ones I had "lost"......and YES the SHP files are build the old fashioned way, one Icon at a time with SHPEdit......I have little need to extract a SHP full of Icons but when they are being entered for the first time I need to record what each one is into the Icon list and the only way to do that and keep things straight and set the center points of the hull and /or turret is one at a time.

That said if I ever get the time or inclination to expand the Terrain tiles these will come in handy. I used the DOS versions to build all the new stuff we added but it's a PITA to fire up the win95 computer, copy things to a 3.5 floppy, copy that to my win XP box --which has a 3.5 flappy drive-- then copy all that to a stick so I can copy that to my win 10 computer but right now if I want to make terrain that's what I have to do which might explain WHY I don't make new terrain:)

Made me smile & peeked my interest, not going to ask what your up to or when it might arrive.

Things are definitely looking good on the map making front, lukerducker123s work on height maps & you might be presenting something new.

Re: looking for a mod
 

well..............there are 400+ new vehicle/ aircraft Icons spread across both game for one, scenhack scenario searching which makes finding a scenario you might like enormously easier.......and entirely new routine for NLOS missiles in MBT and a few other things to make it worthwhile

correction..........500+ new Icons across both games
