Player icon mods: wants

Nothing undoable... except possibly that awful black slat pack under the engine exhaust. Slat is a bugger to figure, since it is mostly vertical.

Should give it a try, the thing will look like a Magach-Abrams Frankenstein tank!

Oh, and 3-tone center-europe camo version as well...

Err, Laurent, do you mean Panzer or pachyderm?

cheers

He means pachyderm...

Yeah, I know, but that's for his Vietnam mod. Quite like the cavalry units really, only when you don't have horses you make do of elephants ro water buffaloes...

I was hoping someone would eventually quickly hack an actual ACH-47A icon, and perhaps a UH-1B/C gunship icon without the M5 nose turret, since none of the units in game actually have the AGL fitted (though I did make some that did). Also, an Australian Bushranger with the dual support assemblies would be nice.

nothing about the LBM and really didn't read the older threads about this since I just got interested in doing something with doing something with the OOB's and Icons with the new release.

1. what format are they?
2. can you import from Photoshop( witch I know) to make a LBM? If not, what can you mport from?
3.I think there is a program in WINSPMBT to do them right or wrong?
4. can you make a color LBM?

I want to start with making a M-60 blade tank and a M-88 to start with.

Oh, I just can't refrain from posting a wishlist...

Not sure wether the 1410/1411 are CV90 or Warrior...
If Warrior the CV has been exported enough to warrant their own icons by now I'd think.

All in both winter/summer camo anyway.

Leopard 2A4/strv121 with mineplow (1416)
Leo 2A5/strv122 with mineplow (2255)
CV9040 and CV9040C
AMOS on a CV90 hull
CV90120-T?
CV90 SPAA (lvkv90 w radar dome)
CV90 engineering vehicle (bgbv 90)
Archer 08 SPA
CB90H/HS
CB90E

Icon 1410 is meant to be a CV-90, the chassis looks right enough to me but the turret is realy close from that of the Warrior, and I don't know what the side boxes are meant to be. But maybe some have been put on since the last time I checked a CV-90

Mine plow would be right on a Leo2, probably it will be added officially any time now but I guess I can fix some quickly enough.

If I have enough time I should finish my XA-180/ -200 -etc. with the AMOS turret, which can then be put on both CV and AMV.
I had no plans for a CV-90 series, and then again there is enough basis already for an oficial upgrade, so I won't step on that ground!

There IS an icon list and it DOES say...

//1410. Strf 9040 (Sweden)
//1411. Strf 9040 IMP (Sweden)

and at the time they were done ( spmbtv1.5 ) I didn't have much of a photo to work with.

I just noticed that three of the five OOB entries for 9040's ARE using Warrior Icon 71. They shouldn't be. I build the icons then hope they are used in the OOB's correctly. Sometimes I catch them when they aren't and sometimes I don't.
