Where to find? Just visit us at http://www.designmodproject.de

Huhu.
Those mods only change pictures and graphics. so, of course it'll work in the english version

(afaik, there is no other language available right now)

If you're talking about, for example, the "Suchradien" in the last picture: Untill now it wasn't planed to translate those little phrases. But let's see. It shouldn't be such a big deal to release an english version, too. I'll let you know.

Nice work guys. The map icons look bigger and should help at higher resolutions. Thank you.

Maybe you're interested in this, it has a some extra information and errata for the manual, maybe you could work this into your German version. Nice work by the way.

I downloaded the three uploads last night, and I am enjoying them very much, especially the earth-toned screens. The map icons are alittle too big for my taste, yet they are much easier to see in 1920x1200x17 inches. Thanks for a great project!

Yes would also like to add my thanks. This mod certainly adds something to the game. Makes it look even better. Well done.

Fantastic. Thanks Pogotorte

. Hmmmm... Having problems with this download. It won't let me open the Rar file. Also it's downloading very quickly and if I try to re-download it it only d/l's a small portion of it.

Edit - Now downlods ok. Not sure about the brown sea but perhaps that's the sea floor.

Thanks a lot! Installed and being played with :)

I agree with moonraker, though. The brown seas are a little... different. Maybe a more greenish brown would keep the feel of an old map (which the current color portrays beautifully), while at the same time feeling a little more "natural", if I may call it that.

Buth the whole thing is beautiful... I am eagerly waiting for the ships :)

Yep, the file was a little buggy earlier this day - should be fixed now.
As for the brown sea: I agree, some may like it, others not... The plan was to let it look more like "old paper".

You know, after looking at the brown seas for half a PBEM campaign turn, I have to say I am beginning to like it. Both islands and task forces jump at me and are far easier to see (I hav a bit of a problem with the DMP icons on a blue background). Now I can't wait for the ship art to be finished. The brownish, old-looking feel of the whole mod is more comfortable for my eyes, as I need hours to do a turn, and my right eye is not in the best of shapes.

A GREAT mod, pogotorte. Please express my congratulations to the modding team :)

I will!

I had to laugh: After some of you said that the brown map was... yeah... a little different, I asked the guy who made it, whether the colour could easily be adapted to whatever one likes... Long story short: It's not that easy to change it and the reason why he choosed this brown map was exactly what you sad: "old-school" and "comfortable for the eyes"

Though, we know, that modding is always a little differant: Some like it, others not. Mostly you can't do a mod that everbody likes. So Riko (he made all this stuff) made the mods so that the overall product fits HIS demands.
So, we hoped that some of you like it (that's what modders work for, I guess) and obviously you do - so everything's fine

(sorry for my wooden "englisch"

)

All folks using these mods - Number 5 has been released which (Correct me if I'm wrong) is the final one unless there are more planned which I don't know about.

There was planed to change music and sounds a little, but due to copyright reasons this mod wont be released

One "mod" is still to come - but that's nothing for you english speaking guys: a translation of the szenario and brieffing textes...

I downloaded the mods and installed them, uninstalled them and re-installed but they are not showing up when I start the game. Is there some way to turn them on?

Never mind. Enlightenment exists when you reveal your stupidity to yourself before anyone else can. In other words, I found my mistake.

Make sure they go to the correct path - C:\MatrixGames\War in the Pacific. Not Program Files x86.

Mod 6 available on the website

Pogotorte - I think you mentioned that there might be a sort of retro mod to retranslate the German in the new Interface back to English. Would this be possible ?
