Part of the map looks a bit familiar.

Regretfully, I can’t use the counters, have to rely on my own for ETO, but I really like the fortress solution. Since you have my hills and mountains, I take you won’t mind me trying your fortresses for the ETO graphics?

Keep up the good work.

I doesn't want to say it's my terrain's mod. No, no, it's almost all your works.
It's just your terrain's mod is the most beautifull to play with this kind of counter... Thank you for it.
(I 'll modify the download page to mention it)

And, of course you can take everything you want, this mod is for all the community and if you want me to draw some graphic for your ETO mod, it will be a pleasure...

I like the map also, but it is hard to see the movement numbers and colors. Of course it was January in Russia, somaybe the snow was washing out the numbers and colors for movement.

Thanks again for this mod.

Hi everybody,

As a great fan of old style boargames, i'm working on a graphical mode for the game. The objective is to make me feel like playing good old boargames (such "World in Flames" or "Third Reich") on my computer. This is for now a work in progress, but the finished mod well be available soon...



That’s is some outstanding work there damastabongo, just what the doc ordered !

Well done…………well done !

During game go to preferences menu, select other map skin that works for you, confirm using OK button, go back to preferences menu, select this skin that does not work, confirm and and close game using "X" button on window if windowed mode, or Ctrl+Alt+Delete and kill game process. Then go to game main folder and send me consoleout.txt file from there, using PW here at forum or by e-mail (bleck[at]wastelands-interative[dot]com)

Status: offline 		Kudos to you master bongo! Your mod really brought the game to life, and added a level of visual familiarity that has more or less changed the whole game for me. The boardgame counters simplify the visual process and enhance the level of attachment you have with your units. I found I suddenly cared about the units, rather than have the more drab and sterile (but rather well done) 3d sprites.

I bought Storm over the Pacific, I do hope you continue your excellent modding work with that, and bring another game into my play realm and my heart.

I had the same problem and the fix is simple. Go to where you game is stored. Make sure that the two folders the mod is in: data/gfx/[UnitsSkin]boardgame & data/gfx/[UnitsSkin]boardgame contain just the mod files NOT another folder which then has the mod files.
