All right everyone,

It's finished!

Tested on Doomsday only! May work on Armageddon as well, HOI2 incompatible!


Download link for Filefront:

File size: 320Mb in .rar format



I'm through creating a compilation mod of all of my favorite graphics mods, which my reasons for are as follows:

1. To provide an easy to use, all-in-one style package with multiple mods from existing ones.

2. To save time from having to dig through my CD archives to find each mod when I need them.

3. So everyone can enjoy (hopefully) the game even more through having a complete graphics makeover.

(I did not make these mods myself and do not claim them in any way and the mod includes a "credit given" page in the mod in which I give credit to the makers of the individual mods.)

The GCM mod includes the following already existing mods made by other users:

SKIF mod
GIP mod
BeBro's sprite packs for HOI2
Improved Interface mod


This will be a HUGE revamp for all of the HOI2, DD, etc. graphics.

Remember, I do NOT claim these individual mods as my own work and I respect that they are the intellectual property of someone other than myself and full credit is expressed to others in a "credit given" page in the mod itself.

:cool:

could you tell me what the Improved Interface Mod look like?

Thanks to you for your effort to combine many good graphic mods in one pack! (why haven´t i done this before? :confused: :D :rofl: )

BeBro's sprites look really good. I am also curious about the Improved Interface. Does it look more smooth or something?

I used the imrpoved interface very loong and yes, it's very stylish grey/silver color. Really beutiful as with all BeBro's stuff!
 
I have the first version running on my computer at the house and I will upload a screenshot when I get home.

(At work)

:D


Version 1.0 will be available hopefully within the next week.
 
I believe I had it running on Armageddon at one time so the answer is a 80% yes. I have been known to be a tad forgetful though...

But - yes, I'd say it will.

The only thing I can think of that could cause problems with the interface mod, is the brigades, but I belive BeBro made a fix for that?

Well, looking forward to a nice compiled release. :)
 
Well, well, well.....

I have finally gotten around to putting them all in one file.

You will still have to install them just as you would normally, this includes no self-installer but will include instructions for those who are new to the process. The reason for this is that you have to put the mods in one at a time versus all at once. I have tried that multiple times and been met each time with failure in the form of jumbled sprites, icons, or a CTD.

I did say it was going to be a collection though. ;)

Estimated size of the file is 320 MB in a .rar format.
Not as large as I thought it would be.

The first version includes:

The SKIF mod (which IS self-installing, but is the only one)
The GIP mod
BeBro's sprite packs
BeBro's interface mod

Hope you like the mod,

Kellister

The file will be available for download shortly and I will edit the first post to include a link.
 
Probably tomorrow. I have to go to the public library with my laptop because they don't offer DSL or anything faster than dial-up where my house is. I'll put it up at filefront most likely.

Sorry for the delay.
 
All right - it's on Filefront!

The top post has been edited to include the download link.

Enjoy! :D
 
The GIP mod appears to not have been included in the ZIP file. Everything else from BeBro and SKIF is there.

Also, I noticed there were not regular infantry sprites. Did BeBro make any infantry sprites? (The land units mod in the pack only changes armor and mechanized infantry sprites)
 
GIP was not included?

I distinctly remember including that......I believe it's in the file under the name "gfx"....

Well then..... :confused:

And no - BeBro didn't make infantry sprites....Sadly.

I might make some when I have more time.
