Pz Ia Icons
 

This is kinda a sample for WinSPWW2. There doesn't seem to be a demand for icons on this forum like on the WinSPMBT forum. But my originals are super old and WAY outta scale and I am shocked they have lasted this long....lol But here is an up to date set for the Pz IA. I have most of my other WAY old and outta scale stuff updated, but I won't worry about posting them unless I know they are wanted. So if you want them, let me know....If you don't let me know.....LOL....

Oh and Don if you want to use them for the next patch, drop me a line. Even if the next patch isn't gonna be out till fall.

A list of icons I already have done and are waiting for feedback..

1. Pz 35(t)s
2. LT vz 35
3. Skoda T-11
4. Pz 38(t)s
5. LT vz 38
6. Pz IVs
7. SdKfz 251s
8. SdKfz 250s
9. M3 Halftracks
10. 2cm FlaK 30 & 38
11. 3.7cm FlaK
12. 3.7cm PaK 35-36s
13. 5cm PaK 38
14. 7.5cm PaK 40
15. 7.5cm leIG 18
16. 10.5cm leFH 18
17. SdKfz 231 8 Rad
18. Krupp Protze
19. Buessing-NAG
20. Opel Blitz
21. SdKfz 7, 8, 10, & 11s

And others on the way for example. Pz IIIs, StuGs, Marders...etc, etc..

So as you can see. I have a lot to offer to those who want them. Oh, as you can probably tell I am kinda a Germany unit fan...lol... Let me know fellas. I can contribute to the community and like to, but there is a bunch there and don't want to waste the time posting all that if its not really wanted. Hope you understand. Because as you know if you have read my WinSPMBT forum. I do it for the community as well as for myself.

Let me hear yeah.

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

Well, 15 downloads and no comments. This meaning the icons aren't wanted or just guys are I'll take those and not want to comment?

If you like my stuff and want more of it, let me know. I have WAY too may icon sets to post if they aren't gonna be wanted. Or maybe there is a set on my list you guys want to see specifically? If there is tell me what it is, I'll post it for you to get a feel for my work, then comment on it.

Just looking for some feedback.

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

Sorry - I have a Russian long campaign, a Japanese long campaign and an Italian PBEM going so not much time for the Panzer I's...... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

The icons look great - I especially like the Polish campaign versions. You might want to consider putting them into the appropriate SHP files.

That generates a thought - we can swap OOBs in and out from the start screen - it would be nice to be able to do the same with shp files too.

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

That would be a great utility to be able to have a folder for custom shps just like custom OOBs. With the ever growing number of stock icons (more in WinSPMBT than WinSPWWII) this would simplify things a lot.

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

Other games have file swapping programs. Some of these are made by players.

An alternative is to have a complete graphics folder for stock and a separate one modded in different locations then replace them as desired.

I keep some folders with different colour infantry shps to overwrite as desired depending on the terrain colour.

M3 Halftracks
 

Can we have a look at your halftracks? I'm trying to make one myself.

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

Right you are!

A file swapping utility would be killer. I am getting tired of having to move stuff around all the time. LOL! Call it SHPSwap!...LOL. Andy you could do this in your sleep. I have faith. You wiped up Mobhack, wouldn't be too hard. If my C++ skills were better I would do it myself, but those are a work in progress...Of course when you felt up to it that is. No pressure though....LOL. You know me. Whenever. I know you like the details too. I remember all the personalized details you wanted for the UK in SPMBT with its units....LOL. Hook us up man..... LOL.

I was also thinking about, multiple OOBs for countries. For example, Germany could have one that isolated the Polish Campaign, French Campaign, Russia Campaign(early & late), Africa Campaign, etc, etc.....That way we could actually go into the detail that each could truly have, because it would free up OOB unit slots. PLUS, the reason this idea popped up. We could actually go into details for distinctive unit icons for each campaign. IE, my German Polish Campaign Icons pack. Imagine the detail one could get into their OOBs with that! I know, I know, crazy and it'll never happen.

Pierre

Which halftracks? Quite a few up there.

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

Sorry, I forgot to mention I had your point "11. M3 Halftracks" in mind here. So why not a Basic M3 in olive drab as a preview?

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

Aight! Here ya go.

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

Hello Oragus, I want to tell you what a fantastic job you did with the icons you made for SPWW2. I have enjoyed them very much and the detail is fantastic. I saw this post for Pz Ia Icons and saw that there was a list of previously done Icons such as Pz IV Protze, various guns, etc... I have been unable to find those downloads and wonder if you could tell me how I can download them. I have looked through past posts, but my forum page only goes back 4 pages and they are not there.

Thanks, Steve

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

srh501,

Thank you. I release the icons for the community to enjoy. Glad you are enjoying them as much as I did creating them. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

That list was a list of icons I have done but have not released quite yet. You can find all the things I have released on here by looking for the blue arrows. I use those to help people find the downloadable icon sets that I release. So far I have released these for SPWW2:

Pz Ia
Pz Ib
Pz II
Pz 35(t)
Pz 38(t)
Pz V Panther
SdKfz 251s
SdKfz 250s
M-26 Pershings
T-44s

I also released a "German Polish Campaign" set, that has many different vehicles in it for that specific campaign.

The other sets that are on that list have not been released yet. So check back for future releases.

Enjoy

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

Yes an SHP swaping Utility would be very good indeed. I have filled countless SHP files up by now and I must admit it can be a nuisance. Especially as I want my mod to be enjoyed by all of you without having to sacrifice new units for mine. Nice work as always Oragus.

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

Thanks Monty. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

I like the detail on the IA Polish campaign icon, right down to the white crosses.

Did these get included on the last WW2 update, 3.0?

Good job!

Joe

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

Nope, they sure didn't, sorry. You would have to talk to Don or Andy about that.

But thanks.

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

This thread seems to be abandoned, but I'd be interested in the PzKpfW IV icons and the M3 icons. :)

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

Actually I'd forgotten to go back and get them, very nice work the Polish Campaign one and the FlakPanzer I really got me. I have quite a collection of icons and had a bunch shp'd then accidently deleted them. :doh: Hope to restart that project soon once done I will post the shp'd copies.

Again excellent work. BZ!!:first:

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

As far as I'm concerned I am happy with Bitmaps since I totally reworked the .shp's anyways. ;)

Re: Pz Ia Icons
 

Actually it is easier than every body thinks.

I did it with my autumn camo for WinSPMBT. It was only for USA.

1.) Create a custom OOB and put it in a new folder and name it Germany Poland. Change all your icons to what you want them to be.

2.) Dedicate a specific shp file to only that oob. Depending on how many and turrets you may get all you need on one shp file. No need to change them in or out.

They will always be there, and all you need to do it change out OOB files and presto.

You can make as many custom OOB files as you like, they don't need to be the same.

If you want to do it by year or campaign.

This only really works for single play or PBEM as long as both have the same files.

If you make scenarios with it you need to specify that people need your files.
