New Improved artillery pieces.

Hey Guys, here you have it finally. Sorry it took so long, longer than I anticipated, but better late than never.Thanks for being patent. Ive already posted this at AAA.

Please take time to read this, for better understanding. Follow read me included and install the folders in the mod folder after extacting, back up .ini and place the new entry as required in proper files. Should work without problems. If you do encounter a problem and I dont get back to you right away, ask on the forum and you should recieve assistance from some of the vets around here.However I will check here periodically and try and help.

NOTE;I use the old AAA modding file system example The Mod Folder. So any newer mod system assistance should be availible on the forum. This is probably due to being busy with these mods and RL Issuses and no time to look close at others.

Artillery

-some of the artillery in the game are just plain aweful and I completely replaced them others are rather good.

-replaced all the old soldiers with better detail ones
-most of the new soldiers have their own dead meshes,so if killed,the artillery wreakage will also include dead soldiers.

-I have included new brit soldiers applied to a couple of USA Art. pieces in its own folder. I think we need more Brit Artillery.
Maybe someone here can apply these british into new proper Artillery slots.


Note; I have'nt done winter skins yet, no time. If you use winter maps you will get stock artillery. I will add winter and desert skins in time. But in the meantime all of you excellent skinners can change the colors to your liking,the possibilities are endless.

Important; put all the new enteries in the techics ini file for these to show up and function properly, also other issuses that correct proper position. For example the game has 4 artillery pieces without characters
 
1)Rus 25mm AA Cannon
2)Ger 25mm AA Cannon
3)Ger 150mm AA Field Howi
4)Ger 50mm Pak 38

New single soldiers

-added single soldiers with own dead meshes in objects, to add to artillery pieces especially japanese which do not have any dead meshes not yet added

-new BMW Bike with new soldiers and you'll notice the german fuel truck has a new character.

I was going to replace all of the old characters in thenew vehicles, but soon realized it would drag on longer especially for those
people waiting for new links.


I also have but not quite finished for future release, folded artillery and bomb carts for airfields. Hopefully someone can link these with trucks or jeeps for towing.

I want to get back to doing more tanks and vehicles in time.


Anyhow ,let me know how you like them.  Have fun and happy hunting.    CHEERS Wingflyr.

Excellent stuff, Wingflyr! Many thanks (for the correction too...)

[Dunois]

Wonderful!

I always said this part of the game was in some ways "forgotten", in comparison of AC, buildings and maps, many thanks to you to fill this gap!
You've already done amazing work concerning german and US trucks, and like you said we need British guns and also trucks (these last ones are my wish).

[KWM_Schnaps]

I will try these.
May I request something, as it seems you're getting ready to expand your mod?
There's at least one artillery piece that would be REALLY necessary : FlakVierling 38.
It only appears in game in the guise of the Wirbelwind and IMHO would be agreat addition as a ground piece.
Thanks in advance.

[Tomoholic]

These are fantastic, Many many thanks

One small bug to report: The static versions of the US and UK bofors guns have the shadows of the transportable versions.

Do you have any plans to add troops, like as a single artillary object or something?

[Koi]

I cant see  the german  Flak30_20mm  in the  artillery view menu in FMB nor in game. Does anyone else have this happen or is it just me? I had revert to the original for this gun.

[Gumpy]

    Here's the British 40 MM Bofors gun in action on one of my airfields.This is some fantastic stuff wingflyr "BIG ASS THANKS"

[wingflyr]

 8)Thanks Guys Im glad you like them WFlyr
