Kerch peninsula into Tunisia, Sicily..

[Beebop]

You're doing some awesome work there mate!  The engine looks really good!  Nice touches with the emblems.

 

I know I'm probably asking a lot, (but they say if you don't ask....), would there be a way to disable the "Afrika Korps" train repaint if I wanted to use the map for a WWI Middle East mission that used trains?  I'm thinking that even if I used the "Russian" engine the boxcars ( and any others you might add) would still have Korps markings.

If it's not reasonable/possible/easy or for whatever reason, you'll hear no complaint from me.  Just askin' for  the ?

Did you manage to slightly make lighter backyards ("gardens") of villages of Kerch sandy peninsula ?

 

Could you see any "semi-open doors" in that effort ?

Hi Esk,

This is probably as good as the backyard gardens are going to get in the city blocks and villages. unfortunately the city blocks share tiles with forest area's and when I removed the forest base to be desert it also changed the city backyards. It would have been good to have some small market garden type textures for the back yards.

Mate you let me know what you want and I'll make it for you.

 

It would just be another set of train textures in a jsgme ready set that you would apply after putting in the desert map set in game to replace the AK train stuff with trains and carriages without the WWII logos. 

 

The Afrika Korps has arrived. Still WIP but getting there. theres one very obvious mistake I just noticed making this post, that I'll have to fix.  

regards Rob.

A couple more Afrika Korps WIP shots. fixed the obvious issue from the previous screen shots.

Please note the cannon/vehicle repaints are not mine (trains are mine though  ), these are a set that was uploaded previously which I use. I will make contact with the author of this set to ask permission to include their work, but if not I'll include a link to the set I have used here for people to load.

 

regards Rob.

More nice work!  ?  This is on par with the best repaints available and is top shelf quality work.  The Devs would be blessed if you were a member of the Map Making Department.  I think this will be every bit as good as the Velikiye Luki Summer map when it's finished IMO.

 

As for the train, yes, making the "stock train" into a JSGME friendly add would be perfect.  I think most people will use this repaint as a Mediterranean stand in and the Afika Korps repaints fit in perfectly.  But for those few of us who might want a desert landscape for other missions, being able to have "Stock Trains" will be a real boon. The uniform repaints and German camo repaints will not be that much of an issue when atacking targets in a hail of AAA fire.  I don't think I'll really notice. ?

 

Thanks for adding this feature to your already great work.

 

Addendum;  I tried to give a reaction to two of your above posts but was denied.  I had already reacted to several other posts for help I had requested on another issue but apparently there's a maximum number of reactions you can give in one day???????  We are not amused.  ?
