Disk Small ID Flag Mod

This is a mod that Lahtinen aka. ‘Nox’ (from Finland) made for WinSPMBT back in 2006.

The mod changes two things:

1. It moves the ID flags from under the unit icons to above.
2. It reduces the size of the ID flags by about 40%

Unit icons are less obscured, and it looks more natural when flags are above the units.

Here’s a before and after image:



I checked Lahtinen’s mod against the current game flags, and the flag of Imperial Iran (pre 1979 revolution) was added to the game in the MBT 4.0 update. I added the Iranian flag to Lahtinen’s 2006 mod.

Download

Download the attached zip file

Installation
1. Unzip the ‘WinSPMBT_Small_ID-Tags_v3a’ folder to your desktop.
2. Go into the folder and copy or move the 2 ‘shp’ files into the games graphics ‘folder’, and ‘replace all’.

Before you replace the original files, I recommend backing them up, by renaming them Icon0097.orig.shp, Icon0098.orig.shp or moving them to a folder called Original ID Flag Icons or something.

Your Graphics folder is located here:
WinSPMBT/Game Data/Graphics

Only these two files are modified:

Icon0097.shp
Icon0098.shp


NB. This mod only changes the flag icons, so can be installed mid-battle with no PBEM, security or OOB problems.

However, this mod is not endorsed or supported by Shrapnel Games or The Camo Workshop.

This is the same mod I posted back in 2010 here:
http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=46335

Thought this belonged in the new Mods sub-forum.
