Graphic mod. What do you think about this ?

[bongo]

Hi,

Some exemple infantry icon for WinSPWW2 :

Germans


Germans (Afrika Korps variant)


Italians


Italians (Desert variant)


Frenchs


Frenchs (color variant)


Americans


Russians


Britains


Japaneses


Ingame screenshot (playing with the french)


It looks good.
There's a batch file which permit to attribute any icon you want to any nation. (That's the only way to adjust the right nation to the right game's unit because it's hardcoded in the game. The color of the little soldier symbol (in the old soldier icons) seem to depend on a choice made by the scenario creators.

Looks great!

Hmm will those infantry icons have size of unit numbers too? Like "10", "8" etc.? And they decrease as losses come during battle?

[bongo]

Yes, the green, orange, red level on the left of the infantry icon symbolize the size of this unit. It have 19 different increments to represent the number of soldier in the unit and decrease as losses come. It represent the same system as with the top down soldiers view but much synbolic.

I think it looks absolutely superb, you really did a great job and the concept is really nice.

Reminds me a lot of some of those old avalon hill board wargames we used to play with some friends, for that nostalgia feel alone i really like what you are doing.

I appreciate the original WinSPMBT/WinSPWW2 graphics and continue to like them, but i see this work is an excellent alternative for the game visual presentation.
I would certainly play from time to time for a change other my usual WinSPMBT.

Again, superb job !
