Status: offline 		Hey Crispy,
I’ve made some further adjusted German NATO sprites with the following changes implemented:
1. Very slightly adjusted unit color.
2. Army symbols are lighter and Division symbols are darker to make their unit sizes easily distinguishable on the map.
3. All air unit silhouettes have been adjusted to German plane types.
4. All naval unit silhouettes have been adjusted to the German ships.

Please send me you e-mail address and I’ll mail them across. I hope you’ll like them!
I personally feel they add flavor to the gaming experience.
I would also appreciate suggestions about how to proceed with all other nations.

Status: offline 		Those empty slots are not used in the mod, so are you changing research limits? That is the only thing I can think of. If you have blank spaces after downloading and playing right away it is something to do with the download itself and not the file which I have uploaded.

I will upload again today just in case though.

Are these all isolated incidents? I would like to know if there is a problem with the mod or if this is a dropbox problem. For me everything works well. I will double check though.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/il377ldrrb1bzii/FW7.2.zip?dl=0

Version 8.0 will be released at some point this month based on the changes made in 1.09 by the developers and other balance changes I will be making, including some additional content and updated NATO sprites, building off SIPRES great work.

If there was any other problem with the sprites other than the USSR level 3 3-D unit sprites please let me know.

Status: offline 		The 3-D sprites are sufficient for this campaign. I am quite sure all of the slots which I use are finished and the units should display correctly under the existing research tree. The Soviet Mech Division was the exception as I later decided to make the unit eligible for infantry weapons 3, when originally I had only sprites for infantry weapons 0-2.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/m8f8h1fifqv197s/FW2%208.0.zip?dl=0

This version is based on the base campaign from 1.08. I will update with changes from 1.09 once the developers finish beta and release the version.

Major changes from Fall Weiss II version 7.2:
- New NATO Sprites created by Phalen, based on the NATO sprites created by Spires. - Thank you both!
- Added some new what if decisions in very specific scenarios
- Tank Divisions are now cheaper to build (175 MPP) and can upgrade to Tanks Level 5
- Mountain Divisions bonuses in mountain terrain have been increased to +2 ground combat, +10% Damage Evasion, +1 Entrenchment and +1 Action Points.
- Added some additional units to the map to start the campaign
- USSR AI will now not surrender unless Baku is also captured
- Added additional scripts to increase German Industry beginning in 1943
- Romanian Oilfield increased to value of 50 MPP
- Invested 1 chit in Naval Warfare (Italy)
- Added Mine To Portugal
- Increase Anti-Air Combat values vs Aircraft
- Added Some Foreign Volunteer Units for Germany (avoiding SS designations)
- Added some additional units for USSR AI on higher levels in 1942 and 1943
- Some other tweaks to scripts, AI research/diplomacy
- Fixed the missing USSR Mech. Division Level 3 3-D Sprite

Italians too are too similar to Germans.

You can still use Sipres' original design if the color is more suitable. Simply replace the bitmap folder in the campaign with this one.

I've made a lot of changes so far, if there is any comments on balance they are very welcome!

The Army/Corps/Division distinctive color gives a really better reading and Thanks to Phalen to arrange Tech level for each nation Airforce.
However for the Nations colors I like so so...
The soviets rendering is good but I prefer the Vanilla colors for all others nations.

After all anything is just a question of taste or perception

- Italy will receive 2 Littorio Class Battleships in 1940 rather than 1
- Increased Strength/Experience of Graf Spee if returned to port safely
- Fixed a scenario where the Vichy Collaboration policy would not initiate
- Decreased Soviet AI Bonus Units at the Intermediate or Higher Level
- Lowered the cost of establishing some German Trade Agreements
- Added some more what if events in specific circumstances
