I use transparent material only on some meshes, If you are able can you check my file in 3DS?

I found out that deleting meshes with transparent materiál dont do the job....it must be something else

Going back and rereading this thrwad, i have to askmif you've read The War That Came Early series by Harry Turtledove. Same basic priciple (war kicks off in 38) but a somewhat different how things go. Might want to give it a look

Posted

Thaks for pointing me to that title, it looks interesting.  I personaly doubt that war that begins in 1938 would be that global as he writes.

Germany doubled number of the tanks by the czech one when they invades france. If they fight with Czechoslovakia they would not have

any tanks to fight other nations as Harry Turtledove writes. I think that it would with putsch in germany after month or so.
