I have uploaded one map and three counter mods.
I have taken some of the ships from Aqent S counters, also I have edited his eyecandies qraphics to make the map compatible with Aqent S beachead mod.
download

Instalation:

1: Extract and place the map and counter folders into the \Time of Fury\data\gfx folder.
2: duplicate the [MapSkin] Peter folder and delete the eyecandies.png file. Thats all.

Now you have two versions of the map: the first one will only work with the beachead mod installed scenarios, the second one will work with any scenario (but will not render beachead mod).

divisions mod:

Thanks,I�m glad you like it.

Looking at the images above, I have noticed something wrong at Normandie rough terrain: it seems to change to plain when in mud condition. If you have downloaded the mods, please replace the sprites_depth.csv file in [MapSkin] Peter folder with this one (for new donwnloads, the first post link has been updated):

Please excuse my ignorance but I do not understand number 2: duplicate the folder were? Why is the eyecandies.png in the folder if we are deleting? Yup, I'm a rookie.

Thanks

Peter 123 : Thanks for the update, also like your GUI mod (top screen info panels), nicely cleans up more space to see the map, is that available ?

I tried to reduce the size of the top info panel, but yours is much neater.

Hi notti75. I did not uploaded it because it is not a "general purpose" mod. It is made for some home made scenarios designed with this mod in mind from the start. Its use is different from usual counters, and does not fit well with standard scenarios.
Anyway, you can download here

How to use:

1: it is made for playing Germany against the AI. It can be easily changed to play another country though.

2: it uses counters for all countries land units except player country (Germany). For Germany, it uses just the unit name, no image at all.
It uses a particular font for the name text. In this font, some caracters are assigned to markers, so you can add markers to any unit by adding those caracters to the name.
These markers tell about the unit type, size, stance, facing, etc. so they should be added/changed/removed as the situation requires. Its like drawing on the map.
you can use the character map to choose a marker and paste to the unit name (Ctrl + v) or copy from a unit name (Ctrl + c) to another unit (Ctrl + v).
So, you should install the font and copy the mod files to the gfx folder to use the mod.
For standard scenarios you should make an extensive renaming because german land units names are too long to be properly displayed on map.
you can take advantage of the replace feature of wordpad to change all ". Panzer-Division" to ".Pz."; ". Armeekorps" to " "; etc. in the land_units.csv file.

3: of course, to see your units, you must set units names "on". But then you will also see all other countries units names, with same font, color, size than yours, making
unplayable the scenario because of confusion. So, for standard scenarios, you should remove all other countries land units names to be playable.
this can be done instantly with a spreadsheet, but as the AI buy new units, you should remove the new units names once in a while in the save folder.
