Sprite Package

[makif130289]

here it is;

firstly, delete gfx/palette and gfx/map/units folder. Then copy-paste the content into AoD 1.6 folder. However, I must warn you, if you use this package, your loading time will be closer to 5 minutes. The package includes hundreds of sprites.

Few people informed some problems with earlier release. I tested this package myself and it is working very well.

 

[gapper4]

This package includes multi-layer sprites for majors and many sprites for minors; FIN,CAN,HUN,ROM,BUL and POL

multi-layer sprites mean that when you produce Panzer IV, you will se Panzer IV sprite, when you produce B-29, you will see B-29 sprite. There are also cavalry sprites. When you upgrade your cavalry into Armoured Cavalry, your cavalry sprite will be no longer horse sprite, but armoured reconnaissance vehicle sprite .And when you produce air cavalry, you will see helicopter sprite.

when unzipped, the package is more than 3 gb . Most of the sprites were made by Puma and some other made by Bebro.

size of package is 66 mb.

Actually, I'm having a bit of a problem. The planes seem ok, but the new tanks look weird. The textures seems to shimmer in a multicolored way, like a constanly changing rainbow. I've tried re-intalling the pack (although there are no instructions, I assume you simply unpack in the main AoD directory, right ?) but no joy. Any clues what might cause this ?

you will copy-paste palette folder in gfx/palette. Did you do this correctly ?

I'm not sure what you mean. I extracted the palette folder to gfx/palette. Is that the wrong way of doing it ?

no, it is correct. I took these files from my game and they are working perfectly. What country do you play and which sprites do have problems, can you specify ?

Thanks for the file, but Puma´s Sprite Pack for AoD is still not complete. Puma still works on new sprites and I think thati it will take a lot of time till he will be finished.

I''m playing as Germany. The aircraft sprites are not corrupted but they seem to be the vanilla ones, for some reason. The tank sprites remain the vanilla ones also but now shimmer like... well, it's like when you see gasoline on water in the sun... same kind of effect. Strange.

Please try this;

delete gfx/map/units folder
delete gfx/palette folder
replace those files with the ones I uploaded, I mean do not use copy-pasting. I think this should solve the problem.

Thanks for the package, makif!
I haven't had time to try it for long, although I did recognize the same “shimmer” gapper4 mentions with the tanks. The planes and soldiers are very good, no complains there.

Oh, just so you know, playing as Germany 36.

I write this post in the name of PUMA who made all this sprites.

Did anyone ask him if it is okay to offer his work here?
He told me that nobody asked him, so please remove this.
PUMA´s Spritepack for AoD will come out soon.

i have seen so many posts like this from HOI 1 thru them all. so what is the law, regulation, rule on this. if you post or link something to an open forum can someone reuse it ...???

 

[Amallric]

Everything on this forum belongs to Paradox Interactive. As for puma this guy seems more concerned with defending his non-existant rights than modding the game.

 

[makif130289]

hi, in the first post, I said that the work belongs to PUMA. In another sprite thread I opened, I also gave link to original DMP thread of PUMA. In that DMP thread, he released all his sprites for free download. I just collected them and chose the ones I like ( I must admit that some of them are quite rough and unrealistic) and released it.I also added BEBRO's sprites and some of PUMA's old ARMA sprites.I did this because if you want to use PUMA's sprites for now, you have to download all of them one by one from the original thread.

However, if PUMA send message to me asking about removal of his work from this thread. I will delete it.

Updated package

hi, I will release updated version of sprites.Use it with 1.6 official patch Most of the work belongs to PUMA. Bebro's sprites are also included.

If you wish, you can go to DMP site, and download PUMA's sprites one by one. I merged Bebro's sprites, Dr. Rare's sprites, most of PUMA's multi-layer sprites and again some of PUMA's ARMA version sprites. I didn't add naval and infantry sprites of PUMA, because I don't like them.For naval, Bebro's sprites are wonderful, infantry sprites are same because I like vanilla infantry sprite. I also didn't add some rough looking sprites. I also changed motorized sprites, in PUMA's work, motorized soldiers fight inside their trucks. I don't think that motorized units would fight from their trucks, so I made them fight on foot like regular infantry. SPA, POL, FIN, HUN, ROM, BUL and CAN now have their own sprites.
