In graphic folder copy soldierB file and rename/overwrite it to soldier file.

Be sure to make a backup of these files.

Can't attach a zip file, so send me a PM with your email

I can't find it anywhere.


I think they were a better compromise

They won't effect H2H and will be compatible with any mod.

What do you mean with 'won't effect H2H'? It doesn't work with H2H, or both should have them installed, or something else?

Cheers,

Purely aesthetic. These came about as a way of making the soldier scale closer to the scale of terrain and vehicles.

One person can have them installed and the other can have stock...it will not have any effect on play. The guy with the stock Soldier file will see normal size guys on his screen for both sides, and the guy with the small soldiers will see small soldiers for both sides.

In CC, the terrain is 5ppm, vehicles average 7-8ppm, stock soldiers are between 11-12ppm (depending on how tall you imagine they are)

I sent Andrew and Moss a set that I did at 7.66ppm that I think is a good compromise while still not needing binoculars to see them on screen. I think Andrew will be setting up a link for it.
