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.

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.

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

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.

Which halftracks? Quite a few up there.

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?

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
