Update #48
- Added : Possibility to change the graphical representation of ANY UNIT IN THE GAME, and super easily !
- Added : 15 new units : StuIG 33B, Nebelwerfer 21 cm 42, Kubelwagen, B-25 Mitchell, Jeep MB, Jagdpanzer IV L/48, Breguet 693, Bristol Beaufighter, Bristol Beaufort, LeO 45, Grumman TBF Avanger, Flakpanzer 38(t), PBY-5A Catalina, Savoia Marchetti 93, Oerlikon 20 mm for GB.
- Removed : NATO counters. They are just rendered useless to be in the base game because you can make your own now !
Now, how to replace the base graphics for the units ? Simple ! Just launch the game, go to settings in the main menu, click on the button that says "Custom units graphics" and it will open you the folder where you will just drop the new textures you wanna use.
Now, the new textures need to have a size of 1024x1024, and be of PNG format.
The PNG needs to bear the name of the unit you wanna replace, lets say you want to change the look of the Panzer I Ausf. A, then you PNG needs to be named : Panzer I Ausf. A.png
Basically, just look at the names in the store or once you deployed the unit.
Now for paratroopers, landing craft, and trains, simple too ! This is country based though. So to change the train sprite for Germany, you will add to the folder a PNG called : Nazi Germany Train.png
To change the landing craft for the soviets, just name the PNG : Soviet Union Landing Craft.png
and so on. Same for paratroopers, example : USA Paratroopers Paratroopers.png (here's there's a double Paratroopers simply because the unit is already called Paratroopers, but for the germans it would be : Fallschimjager Paratroopers.png).
Game needs to be restarted in order for the changes to take effect.
If you have any question, feel free to ask !
PS : There now also is an option to stop the rotation in all axis in the main menu. If you use 2D side view sprites, you don't want your unit rotating on the 6 axis, just left / right and thats all. Just dont forget to tick the option in the settings in the main menu ;)
Cheers !
