Gounded aircraft and various civilian vehicles are available in winSPMBT in the ONU OOB! Take a look at them!

Hi,

I have looked,just did again. I don't see any trains in there...

[FJ_MD]

I have not mentioned trains but they will be surely done by PlasmaKrab!

[PlasmaKrab]

Nope, no trains AFAIK.

Found something in SPWW2 like a German turreted wagon, see some use for that? Big grey slab with two turrets.

Also got some things from SPWAW, one engine with tender, and one closed wagon. Both are also german dark grey, could be exploitable.

[Skirmisher]

That stuff would certainly be useful in the ww2 era.

I'm thinking a couple kinds of boxcars,a couple kinds of liquid /chemical cars, a couple kinds of flatcars,maybe one loaded flatcar.

[PlasmaKrab]

Flatcar can count as tank transporter, cargo boxcars as troop carrier (ammo variant?), but why cisterns?

Looks cool, accordingly, but better see them empty, we can't consider chemical explosions...

DO NOT use Icons from WaW and put them in any user mod for either SPWW2 or WinSPMBT for ANY reason at all.

If you want to produce Icons, draw them yourself from scratch. If you want to build vehicles from other vehicles use your own work as a base not other peoples. Everyone will be much more impressed.

Not sure if this is right place to post this but....
the M113 106RR icon is not centered correctly.
also one of the Jeep RRs cant recall if is is in usa or usmc
it was a 1965-68 battle I saw it in I believe.

Alright, I had forgotten about that point.
Don't worry, I wasn't going to copy-paste these so as anyone would recognize them!

These were just meant to be a work base, since I never saw a wagon icon from close up, so I had a chance to see what it was meant to look like! Anyway, as I told before, these I found were very clearly WW2 German stuff (dark grey), so practically unuseable as such.

Sorry for the worry, Don, I assure you I don't mean to break anyone's coyright. Thanks for having reminded me though. Now when I issue something I will make sur it looks like nothing you could find!

Regards,

Plasma

Do you mean A] the RR was on the wrong side or B] is an Icon way out of line in relation to the hex

if it's A] the game is designed with the Icons facing "east". If they need to face "west" the game produces a mirror image which put's everything on the "wrong" side when you view it that way. If it's B I need to know the unit name and OOB number. Half the world uses M113's

They are not centered...north to south.
They were almost out the hex at the top.
M113 Recoilless and M113 TOW shp files.
USA/USMC
The two icons are non-centered, so these wehicles look weird.
I believe its files 0066 and 0077

There was a fix posted by Wanker for this back in spmbt ver 2
I am sorry I have already fixed them and dont recall which exact unit number.
