Mini Mod "Counters in Flames"

[Fernando Torres]

I made a mini mod which changes some counters. The colours are those used by the old boardgame "World in Flames". This mini mod is compatible with all mods and all versions.

A Preview :

PS > I'm using the "uncensored" flag for Germany but due to the forum rules, i've hidden it in the preview.

Download V 0.2

Read the "Read me" for installation instructions.

Changelog v 0.1 :

- Added counters for China, Germany, Soviet Union, Italy, United Kingdom, United States, Nationalist Spain and Japan
- Added a new counter strip in order to see the air symbols

Changelog v 0.2 :

- New air symbols
- Added counters for Germany, China, USSR, UK, USA, France, Vichy France, Free France, Communist China, Nationalist Spain, Republican Spain,
Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxemburg, Slovakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Turkey, Greece, Switzerland, Yugoslavia, Italy,
Japan, Rebels, Allies, Axis, Poland, Austria, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Siam, Manchuria and Argentina

I am currently working on a V 0.3 which would also change the map colors.

Comments and suggestions are welcomed. ​

I have updated the first post. A new version (v 0.1) is available with a new counter strip in order to see the air symbols.

like it...but little suggestion...is it possible to make different naval flags too? (i dislike the japan naval jack used for army - it had the sun centered instead of naval flagstaff orientated sun.)

 

[Fernando Torres]

I'm not sure.
Try this one and tell me if it works > http://www.sendspace.com/file/kv4bsj.

no

no

Then i think it's not possible.

Anyway, i'm preparing an 0.2 version. The air symbols will be changed and there will be new counters (i have included Germany, China, USSR, UK, USA, France, Vichy France, Free France, Communist China, Nationalist Spain, Republican Spain, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxemburg, Slovakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Turkey, Greece, Switzerland, Yugoslavia, Italy, Japan, Rebels, Allies, Axis, Poland, Austria, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Siam, Manchuria and Argentina so far). Is there any country that you would like a new counter for ?

[Fernando Torres]

Yes, i'm using WiF boardgame's colors for the counters.

sorry... ...anyway, if you will make new roundels, there is nothing to ask (there is truly many minor powers which needs new air symbols - the original look messy)

 

[PANGI]

It is. But i think there's something wrong with colors. im not sure. i tried to put different flag in the counter, remade the flag to 8 bit and copied it into the file, but the game still show the original flag...i have no idea

 

[Fernando Torres]

Send it to me by PM, i'll see what i can do.

Interesting.

2 points.

1) I have only looked at your preview, but I have attempted to try and make new counter colours and I haven't got it to work. Have you actually tried your counters in game? If they do come up OK, how did you do it?

2) You need to brush up a little on the roundels, a few of them look like you have cut out a square from the old counters as you can see some of the old background colours in the corners in some of them. Though nice roundels if I do say so myself.

Actually, i'm no longer working on this or more accurately, the mini mod will be included in the next WIF release.
Anyway, i'm using the counter maker.
