Sorry to hijack your post Pete, being the work of Dimon most of you will know where to find.

Superb, Dimon must have seen your request a while back and answered your prayers.

Maybe he has ran out of aircraft projects to post.

Take care and be safe.

Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

Hey Pete, the strange contraption in front of the radiator was also installed on a lorry in The Australian Armour & Artillery museum walkaround on youtube. I looked through their vids but I couldn´t find the one with that truck. It was a walkaround in the museum and in the american part of the collection I saw the truck front part with that same kind of bar similarily attached to the front. So I guess that it was used for many vehicles back then.

Hello Flying H, it is for sure a feature for many of the Bedford variants besides the OXC I am making, that family of trucks is vast especially those used by the UK and allies through WWII and includes all kinds of tankers, troop carriers et al, so far I personally have not seen it on others but I will try and find the walkaround, thanks.


genXgamer, if you are looking in, I cannot find that Dimon tanker anywhere, could you tell me the site please so I can have a look, no need to post a link as long as I know where to go.


Take care and be safe.

Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

Thanks Frankiek

Apologies to those who sent private messages, only seen them now (no email notification).
Should point out there are 11 vehicles in total, no stationary option though.

[stanislao]

   Yes, I confirm, I posted them on behalf of Dimon on Il2AirCombat and I confirm that in addition to the Bedford tanker you will find a Bedford with covered body, two beautiful Fiat 38 SPAs, a German Krupp truck and a beautiful collection of German cars from 1940.
Unfortunately they do not come with "stationary" and this limits their use for diorama creators, if anyone
manages to complete the job will be welcome and will be included in a completion patch.
I apologize to Pete for intruding on his topic.

[Mission_bug]

Thank you very much guys for the info, really appreciated.

I forgot about that site and had lost the link but I have them now thanks to all of you and Mick.

I do like the civvy cars, superb, as for stationaries they would need to be added to the java from which the moving vehicles were created so it would be necessary to open the Dimon java and add a section to that for those.

Take care and be safe.

Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

Hello guys, I have added the stationary vehicles to the Dimon pack and will send the update to stanislao once
I upload to Medifire so he can post them in his original thread or send them to Dimon for approval, whatever
he thinks is the most appropriate.



Take care and be safe.

Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

[genXgamer]

Thanks so much Pete.
Could I ask one small favour?
Would you be able to create the java files for the following,

MATADOR_Fuel_Green
Fiat_Fuel_Desert (Stan request).

I have done the skins, chief and technics entries but yet to set up a Java/modding environment.
If not, doesn't matter just means they'll appear sometime later on.

EDIT:    The green could be a little darker, but I guess it depends on the theatre.

Hello genXgamer, I had a message from Dimon this morning indicating that stanislao had a crash at 70%, so a question, did stanislao send you the link and was it okay for you?

As for further tinkering, please ask Dimon, it is his project afterall.

For colour changes you should be able to set yourself up with the usual summer, desert and winter folders and something like Gimp should allow you to replace the existing colours of the TGA files, for the Thorneycroft I had just the original folder set in the java I think and just renamed the second and third folders as Desert and Winter then added extra details in the technics file as far as I remember, I do not recall writing anything in the java as the sim is already set to accept the usual summer, winter and desert folders, just check how I set up the Thorneycroft if you have it. For the Far East CBI works for the aircraft, not sure about the vehicles. Sorry to say I have too little time with my two existing projects at the moment due to the chronic pain I endure so I am not going down the rabbit hole with this, you guys will have to tinker yourselves.

Dimon mentioned something about renaming the driver textures or something to make them dissapear in the stationary models, I have not tried and left mine as they were, I also tried them in BAT #WAW3 with no issues using the same files and entries I sent to stanislao.





Take care and be safe.

Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

Pete,
Again great stuff with the OXC, looking good as usual...you do realise that it is good base for the OXD lorry and other OX and OY vehicles.. lol.

Also Dimon's vehicles, looking forward to those.  GenX sent me to IL2AirCombat for them, still waiting to be accepted there, can they be uploaded to SAS as well?

Cheers

Shessi
