So no images in the database?

Disappointing!
It is a 'must' for me - open the database and thereby take a look at the object.

I will now wait for now.
Command: Modern Air Naval Operations has not convinced me until now, precisely because of the "castrated" database.

First of all disappointed. [:(]

Images were deliberately not bundled with the game in order to avoid IP/copyright issues.

You can, however, download community image packs from here: http://www.warfaresims.com/?page_id=1876 . More than 2000 images and growing.

On the same page you will find extra scenarios and alternative unit icons.

Thanks!

Thank you Sunburn [:)]

It starts to get interesting! [8D]

Can I add my own images to the database and write descriptions for my own personal use? If so, where would I put the images and how do I link them to the database entry, and how would I write descriptions?

There are now two packs availble...one from the developers at the top of the forum. The other is in the mod forum that contains all US planes in DB3000.

Yes you can. The top line of each database entry has a number at the beginning (#1234).
Now an example for the chilean PCFG LM 30 Casma:
The Number for this ship is #1701, so you have to put a image of it in the database image folder as
[Path_to_COMMAND_game_folder]\DB\Images\DB3000\Ship_1701.jpg

For the description you create a .txt file with the description in it and save it to
[Path_to_COMMAND_game_folder]\DB\Descriptions\DB3000\Ship_1701.txt

Now you have an image and description for this ship in your DB3000 database.

For the other types use:
Aircraft_[number].jpg / Aircraft_[number].txt,
Submarine_[number].jpg / Submarine_[number].txt and
Facility_[number].jpg / Facility_[number].txt

Edit: I would suggest not doing this just for your own, as others, me too [8|], certainly would want
to have that too. And since there are thousands of objects in the database it makes sense to share
this with the community. But for this one had to respect the copyrights of the images and description
texts. On wikipedia the most images are applicable by mentioning the creator. There is some info about
the conditions for using them under the images.
As Sunburn and thewood1 pointed out there are already image packs available.

Edit2: I just found a thread that adresses enriching the database with images and descriptions, but
are not allowed to post links right now: matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=3421711
