+Gepard Posted October 11, 2020 Posted October 11, 2020 I must correct my statement, that different skins for groundobjects are impossible. They are possible, but only in campaigns. For single missions it does not work. For using in a campaign you must edit the campaigns data.ini file. example: [GroundUnit014] GroundObjectType=T-54 UnitName=Polski 3. Pulk Czolgow ForceID=2 Nation=Poland DefaultTexture=Green <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< This line defines the skin of the vehicles of this unit. Here: Green BaseArea=PQ76/22 RandomChance=100 StartObjects=100 MaxObjects=100 Experience=40 Morale=100 Supply=100 Intelligence=100 UpgradeType=NEVER [GroundUnit015] GroundObjectType=T-54 UnitName=Polski 4. Pulk Czolgow ForceID=2 Nation=Poland DefaultTexture=Camo1 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< This line defines the skin of the vehicles of this unit. Here: Camo1 BaseArea=PQ76/21 RandomChance=100 StartObjects=100 MaxObjects=100 Experience=60 Morale=100 Supply=100 Intelligence=100 UpgradeType=NEVER Of course you must have the skins Camo1 and Green for the vehicle. Interestingly in a campaign the insignias will not shown on the groundvehicles, but the tactical numbers and different skins are visible. For single missions insignias and tactical numbers are shown, but no different skins. 1 Quote
+Menrva Posted October 11, 2020 Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) If you had read my previous post, I already explained that different skins are possible in campaigns. They are also possible in single missions if you use the Mission Editor or edit the missions manually. Otherwise, single missions generated by the game use Green or Tan as defined in the terrain's.ini. I won't repeat myself a fourth time. As for tactical number decals working in campaigns, that's no mystery, that's the system the game uses for applying aircraft carrier numbers dynamically. They are in the same ground objects folder family, like all the other stuff. Edited October 11, 2020 by Menrva Quote
yakarov79 Posted October 11, 2020 Author Posted October 11, 2020 Thanks for your answers. Anyway.

However, the only way I could see it working practically is if it's used in either the mobile or static AAA role. If used in the APC or Tank role you'd find it damn near impossible to pass a formation on the move! Quote
yakarov79 Posted October 12, 2020 Author Posted October 12, 2020 1 hour ago, Piecemeal said: is if it's used in either the mobile or static AAA This is Mobile_AAA. 9K32M (SA-7). But... Before we had a lonely guy starring at the sky with a fiberglass tube in the middle of nowhere... Silly. So I decided that I want some more background to this. For some middle east scenario, I have two guys in jeepo.. For more formal formations (like Soviet Army) after Gepard's suggestion, I have mounted them with BTR... And I think BTR adds KPV to AA fire. Not sure because something hit me on my test run...and didn't check who was shooting. But that is the idea. Not a single guy with a launcher posing as 'SAM site' or serious AA defense. Was also thinking of adding maybe Strela/Igla guy somewhere near the Command truck or some other AAA or artillery formations (as a part of it) Will see. 2 Quote
+strahi Posted October 12, 2020 Posted October 12, 2020 Maybe you can create a ISIL (Mujahedeen) squad, for Afghan-Iraq-Syria mods. Quote

For now, I am focusing on the regular armies of the Warsaw Pact and then a few countries that fit into my over Israel, over Iran mod. But also regular armies. Such inferior formations like ISIL and similar have absolutely my disrespect as groups not lead by any code, morals, principals, etc - meaning I am not gonna waste my time for those (even if it is just a game). Meanwhile... finally finished OSA-AKM. and some missiles for it. 11 2 Quote

yakarov79 Posted September 17, 2022 Author Posted September 17, 2022 This time something not very useful, not even posing a serious threat. Just a piece of equipment to populate airfield areas. Have to admit, inspired by Gepard's terrain work. RSBN-4N Radio Engineering System of short Range Navigation with AD-30T-230M3 generators KNS-1PM-2 on Zil-130 chassis. Light beacon Zis-151 and ATZ-3 (only a few will see differences with Zil-157). I think 4-5 models more and I will upload something for modders, anytime soon. 2 weeks standard CA time. 12 1 Quote
