I'm still around - just busy
Hi Zee like the idea of seasonal changes in landscape for the future anyway - v.nice.
I'm hanging around --- but not idly!! Mrs PC has made me decorate the house. A project avoided for 9 years but now retired I've been caught in the barbed wire So I get a games fix now and then, between coats of paint. Still listening out though!! Peter Sellers ---- on painting: "Vinston Churchill vas a painter? Ja, but no good!! Adolf Hitler? Ja He Vas a real Painter: one apartment two coats four hours!!" |

Dancing in the moonlight
Thanks Zee
Paintbrush in one hand and brain in the other!! just wanted to say I liked the new May missions especially the mass attack, my downside as others found (German Mission 4) was lowest FPS was 3.4 (very stuttery) improved when I switched views to commanders F5 but it was a bit heavy for my PC until a few T34s and SP guns had been "harvested". Nice change to be able to enjoy some night action, would think any difficult missions would be checkmated by limitations in graphics for "player" targetting though. Nice to see the Tigers "earthbound" and not elevated like we're viewing the game after eating "Magic mushrooms". I knew Lc would be about in that night mission - he never sleeps. You will notice I'm late commenting on the May missions but it would be out of character to be anything else now!! BTW Zee my little Gal ain't so little anymore and she ain't no Gal either - BUT she's all mine If she sees this I will have a retrofitted paintbrush somewhere "up" me!! All the best Mort |

I'll get the Gun site range fix out to you as soon as I have a few more updates to go with it (like more trees, etc). About your wife, you say she ain't no Gal but praise God she ain't no Guy either It's been kinda quite lately, I hope it is because everyone is playing TvT And yes, the night mission is a true night mission too I'm sure LC will make us all proud. Vorwärts Kameraden! ZW |

Mooney talks!
Zee, the night mission is quite stunning with the bright and beautiful full moon.I have a technical question related to it.How did you get that full moon into the mission?Was it a lot of work to put it there?
Hi Morty; how much are you willing to pay us so we don't leak your latest post to your GAL???? I am sure being retrofitted with a paintbrush somewhere up is going to be more painful than any alms you'd be willing to fork out????? Lc will probably use the full moon to romance a grey mouse....

The full moon is part of the Sky image used. The technical part is the aligning the the Sky image with the light direction and the color adjustment of the fog and light as well as intensity settings. Easy as painting by numbers. Cheers ZW |

Was Machen Zee?
I told you he is Leonardo da VinZee or is it Michel AnZeelo?
Lovely work Zee! Can´t wait to see battlefield with mist or even those looming dark stormy skies that you posted in one of your early posts about Kursk. What are you working on these days besides heavenly designs?????Please don´t tell us that you´ve become one of those wandering French artist who suddenly struck by a Muse left everything and found inspiration on some forgotten South pacific heaven surrounded by Hula-Hula girls.Next we´ll see paintings of you depictings Tiger camouflaged with banana leaves or even worse you´ll be painting our Tigers with stripes and surrounded by howling monkeys....

See if you can paint a tiger to camouflage with these young ladies.

Hey Guys
I did take a few days off but I back in full production. I solved a couple of issues, one was the AI Tigers moving with destroyed track and the other was a mistake I did with the Missions Menu. Also I've been digging up battle details that involved Tigers that will be the bases of new Campaigns and missions. This research has taken a solid week of some real fun stuff. Things like locating the digital elevation data the will be used to create the new maps that will make the terrain as authentic as possible. And of course maps and unit histories that I will incorporate at a playable level and still attempt to hold true to the event. There is a strong possibility that the first winter battle will take place in February 44 at Korsun west of Chercassy. A ferocious battle that I am still doing research on that is sure to be awesome. There it said the JS-2s attacked in numbers. So that's something to look forward to. The Kursk Mission #2 is coming along nicely and you are sure to notice a few changes, for instance the swamp effect it just about a thing of the past but will still dog the slower computers. The FPS are less of an issue in this mission compared to #1. Meanwhile I will keep you posted on it's completion with some more screen shots. Cheers ZW |

Here We Gau Aguin!
DB MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM! I like their camo very ...natural, very simple.But I am afraid the only shells these 2 have ever seen are those you comb on a beach and as for the tanks only those used for scuba diving.Thanks for the thought though!
Good news Zee about Cherkassy-Korsun.Is it when you are going to introduce the IS(JS)2 as a playable tank?Not a bad tank if you make exception of the low shell load( 28 including only 8 AT ones), the abysmal reload rate( 3 shots a minute) and the terrible Soviet optics... |

like to have the JS-2 (AI) included for sure. The work on playable units has had a low priority while I work on and improve on the exiting Playable units and terrain and all else that needs the ZW touch so-to-speak And DB you definitely got to be a old man Onwards! ZW |

They were from the 19th century, and I think Leonardo da Vinci & Michelangelo were from the 15th century. The masters would be proud of your work ZW I use a lot of impressionist art for my desktop wallpaper. |
