Smash’s Floating Icons for Fortress Italy http://cmmodsiii.greenasjade.net/?p=7359 http://cmmodsiii.greenasjade.net/?p=7359#respond Mon, 22 Oct 2018 18:36:04 +0000 http://cmmodsiii.greenasjade.net/?p=7359 This mod replaces the default floating icons in Combat Mission: Fortress Italy (CMFI) and its Gustav Line module. These stylized icons are based on the U.S. War Department’s 1943 Basic Field Manual FM21-30 Conventional Signs, Military Symbols and Abbreviations. The icons have a slightly three-dimensional appearance so that they look like counters from traditional board-based war games. And, when the icon blinks (i.e., the unit is selected or wounded), the unit’s national flag is displayed.

The mod is probably not compatible with vehicle and uniform texture mods from other authors. For the longer version about the mods continue reading.

The pictures above illustrate the reason I decided to create these. The game uses the same textures for some soldiers/vehicles no matter the formation (or sub-formation) they belong to. And so the markings on a soldier/vehicle tend to not match with what your unit information panel states. Should you have some knowledge about the manner in which the British Army marked their vehicles and uniforms then you probably have noticed other similar conflicts with them also.

Seeing my gunners and sappers appearing the same as the infantry annoyed me. But I was otherwise content with the stock uniform/vehicle textures. The only practical solution seemed to be to remove any such identifying markings from the textures. So that’s what I did. Now with this mod it is just the names given in the unit information panel that try to depict whom your soldiers/vehicles are, and nothing in the 3D view should contradict that.

  • Formation Badges Removed From Uniforms
  • Arm Of Service Strips Removed From Uniforms
  • Shoulder Titles Removed From Uniforms
  • Cap Badges Removed From Uniforms
  • Tactical Signs (Coloured Shape and Vehicle Number) Removed From Vehicles
  • Arm Of Service Signs Removed From Vehicles
  • Battery Signs Removed From Vehicles
  • Bridge Rating Signs Added To Some Vehicles
  • War Department Numbers Have Not Been Added Or Removed

Notice any units continuing to show markings that can identify them as an particular formation then let me know what I missed.
