    Re: XWW2 Update

    you know what - when i saw your panzer model i was a little skeptical of this mod but hey i'd play with these models! they're a little flat (is that another 2d hatch on the side of the grant? hehe) but dangit they do the trick. textures look better than panzer - lower saturation in colour seems to match the worlds better... always happy to see another ww2 mod update... thought of doing a mini release to the community? (like 1918 is proposing?)

    [to be specific on panzer the front and rear drive wheels look wrong - front plate single 2d panel? 3d wheels such as the ones on your grant look far better in my opinion...]

    bak to max with ye! lookin forward to "ingame" screenies [HUD etc]

          Both look rather dodgey.

                  yeah yeah yeah we all know FH is the best lookin mod - but is that what this thread is about? dont compare them - no point - they may be doing the same theatre but at least they are progressing. i'm simply givin them kudos because they're work HAS improved... at least they have given us shots of planes and tanks ingame.. quite frankly i'm at the point with bf2 where anything that is passable will do for me lol! if your going to post here at least give them a tip to point them in the right direction :laugh:

                  i.e
                  looks like theres a 6pounder on that matty, might wanna resize the barrel a little

                    That pretty much sums up your entire statement. If you don't care, thats your perogative. I do care. And I compared them with FH, because their work looked like work from battlefield 1942 FH(as opposed to FH2 stuff). XWW2 stuff really looks under-detailed, etc. I guess this is the first time people on Total BF2 are learning about me...Too bad none of the bf42.com vets are here to explain, heh...

                    Edit: Its pretty hard to give contructive critisicm, when the screenshots are in profile.

                      FH's 42 Mat 2 looks better than that though. No Grant or Lee to compare though.

                        Well, like I said, its hard to judge in profile.

                          hahahahahahahaha sorry this isnt bf42.com. i guess your coolness dosn't sway this way lol. GET OVER YOURSELF MAN. i do care about modelling but perhaps your right - my dissallusionment with repetative BF2 is swaying my opinion and i do recognize it as i said - but that dosnt mean you go takin that tone lol
                          jesus tap dancin christ :laugh:

                          oh yeah and how does havin screenies up make it HARDER to give constructive criticism... you type in your suggestion and compare with image...

                            yeah indeed, first time I learn about you Raslin. And I must say I do not like learning about you.

                            To all good guys here, I saw you guys mentioned the pz III J in our previous updates here, and I can tell you that the tools/shovels on the pz III J are 3d now, and we got the normal maps working too, looks much better now :) Also the Grant features normal maps and 3d tools(and in general more details. And the side window on the Grant is 3d.

                            And yeah, maybe some ppl say our models are less nice than FH's models. They're less poly, and maybe look a bit less nice. But keep in mind we can add over 7 Matilda II's for every Abrams BF2 has, which immediatly makes our mod the ultimate for tanking combat.

                              A. Did I talk about my "coolness"? No. Good job on making yourself look foolish though.

                              B. I'll take any tone I want.

                              C. I didn't say harder either, again, gj. I said hard. As in, hard as opposed to a decent screenshot, showing the model at an angle.
