Thanks for the feedback guys.
I've uploaded a new build with lots of little bugfixes.
It's located in the same subfolder as the other one. Just get the link I gave you, remove the filename, and go to the folder. The bugfixed build is V0.03b.
And as for effects.. not sure which ones you mean, but it'd be preferable to wait until Nemo gets back before we start messing with his effects. Then you and he can discuss it.

it was a british armoured car, and a german MG iirc, i will run more tests
also, I think infantry corpses should yeild a small amount of metal, maybe 5-10M to represent looting equipment but more to the point so capturing territory of post battleground is important for resources and cutting down on the number of corpses that build up in a long battle (encouraging reclaiming) would be nice too.
also, if this isnt on the things to do, engineers should have some kind of representitive animation when they are nanoing, maybe turning a wrench or somthing, and also, they NEED to move their arms when they run because atm they look like they are wearing straightjackets

Armoured cars are slightly vulnerable to MG fire because of their rubber tires. They may perhaps be too much so. I expect it would be the daimler rather than the AEC, AEC is quite a tough vehicle so far down in the buildtree.

I think Nemo and I discussed this several months ago, but I recommended actually changing the corpse to another feature with open packs, etc...

Alright, I've uploaded yet another build (V0.03c).. good thing we have so many letters to go through
Didn't get to fix those issues j5, but plenty of others were.
Again, the new build is in the same folder as the last two.
And Felix, I sent you the link on MSN.

)

Mello, if you need somebody to test with and nobody is in s44, try to look me up. I may be free at random times this coming week, and I tend not to channel lurk these days.

well i have to say CoH: Opposing Fronts is very confusing... seeing as this is the location of the resident WWII nerds i have three questions stemming from questionable units in CoH: OF (sry for this i know its off topic)
1. an engineering vehicle based off the tiger chassis
2. a german medium bomber (possibly Heinkel) with a large arty cannon strapped to its under belly
3. a British tank that was transportable by glider (Tetrarch is the name iirc)
the first is a controllable/build-able unit, the other two factor into support abilities.
oh and if im in the lobby ill look for ya neddie no promises what with 2142 PR and Rising Eagle on my comp (not to mention MoH: Airborne DLing as we speak).

1. an engineering vehicle based off the tiger chassis
Bergepanzer Tiger:
2. a german medium bomber (possibly Heinkel) with a large arty cannon strapped to its under belly
Was it this?:
or this?:
The latter is more likely; Hs-129, several armed with a 37mm cannon in the underbelly. The Germans also experimented with 75mm recoilless rifles on several aircraft...
3. a British tank that was transportable by glider (Tetrarch is the name iirc)
Yes:
What are your questions, exactly?

You've answered them all... they did their research, and didn't add vehicles which did not appear.

yeah, if you ever feel like you need to add a tech 4 (tech 1 inf, tech 2 light vehicle, light - medium tanks, tech 3 heavy tanks) just try recreate some of the unused super-heavy tanks, whitch most were only on the drawing board and none of them saw the battle feild

What, like the Maus? With a top speed of 13 kph on flat ground? It would be interesting in naval games, though, since it was OTA-style amphibious (crossed rivers by submerging).

jeez what the hell were the germans thinking... 75mm on a plane...
and yes it is the hs-129 though the ingame model has a bigger cannon than that...
