I found this:
- NO green (red and yellow) outlines in 3D icons for SS Panzergrenadier Platoons, SS MG Platoons, German Para Plt 44 (Roam mode)in EF.
- no "flamethowers" icon in the left-hand side of Info Box units in EF (russian SMG platoons, Mtorcycle platoons, german Pz II Flamingo etc.)

THANKS GUYS FOR ALL THE HARD WORK

Hi All

Ive enjoyed the game so far but some of the graphics are driving me bananas the 3 nominees are:

Trucks going dark grey/canvas up when loaded..please note to all players playing PBEM..if its dark grey/canvas up its loaded and it means lots of points..except on my CS..fixed it!

SSpz grenadier 44 platoon unit..bit hard to manipulate cant fix it

PzIV with head guy sticking out

fixed it

otherwise the other graphics look great!

I don't know if you saw this, but I posted it in another thread:

quote:

I took a second look at the SS Pzgr 44 graphic, and I think it's the same as Finland's Jaeger platoon but with a different color scheme. If I'm right, then you can copy Op05209.bit and rename it Op01205.bit; that should give you an outline when the unit is selected.

Did you give that a try?

Try this:

quote:

NO green (red and yellow) outlines in 3D icons for

SS Panzergrenadier Platoons,

edit Op01205.bit to be 16 bit graphic.

quote:

SS MG Platoons,

rename Up01214.bit to Op01214.bit

quote:

German Para Plt 44

rename Up01225.bit to Op01225.bit

There may be more, I don't know. hope this helps

Simovitch,

I stand corrected.

I had not noticed that those Op.bit files had been misnamed as Up files. My apologies and nice catch.

Took another look; there are at least 15

other Op.bit files in EF that are misnamed as Up files. Easy enough to spot in Windows Explorer (change View to List).

Ooops again. Started renaming and found that most of those already had properly named Op.bit files. I guess these others are just extras.

So in the end, the only 2 I found in EF (other than those you mentioned) that need renaming are Op01404.bit & Op01617.bit. That'll teach me to look twice before I leap.

Thanks for help!!!

I corrected and renamed "wrong" Up. files to Op.bit files. Many icons and outlines works fine.

Only one icon not display with outlines - SS Pzgr42 -(Up.01210 file?), scenario "Objective Kharkov" in EF - roam mode for this icon not work.

This is the same problem as Op01205.bit. for some reason the graphic needed to be upgraded to 16 bit in order to show up.

Gentlemen:

I've got the same " no outline" graphic problem with the EF German side on the light brown colored trucks. Does anyone know why there are 2 different colored trucks?
