Bugles & Flags XIX

This is where our experts try to teach you the very flexible modding system for our previous release - SOW Gettysburg and its add-ons. It's powerful, but dangerous. Post your tips and your questions.

Reb - do these new flags cover North Carolina and the great state of Tennessee?

Not the last four that you did, but the earlier ones in the HD set!

Hey D,

North Carolina has a unique flag I will be doing in HD soon, it wasn't of the 3rd bunting style. The Tennessee 3rd Bunting I didn't consolidate, it's rustic appearance was cool as is plus it adds variety to the 3rd bunting series. I may get around to making it HD, right now I'm doing a balancing act so as not to hit FPS rates, this is my present consolidation rationale. Was that clear as mud? :huh: Thanks for your interest. :)

Understandable, but I think that you should let the user determine what that is, considering that nobody gets the same fps with this game.

Yes, I think so!

Great Work as always, hey when you get around to it, can you save me the flags before adding the hi-lighted border.

Thanks!

I usually play with the GCM toolbar. I would like to see other toolbars and have downloaded this mod to try it out, as I think it contains a toolbar. I believe that the GCM toolbar is based on the Bugles and Flags toolbar. Is it similar, or the same? If the latter, please stop here!

If there is a toolbar in this mod, and it's different to the GCM one, then I'd still like to try it out and here's my problem. I've downloaded this latest version, activated it, clicked on the check mark,
The attachment BuglesFlagsactivated.jpg is no longer available
and then gone into a Sandbox game, using the Mac map and the Harpers Ferry OOB. I played on normal settings.
I was expecting to get a different toolbar, but didn't
The attachment nochangetotoolbar.jpg is no longer available
Am I missing something?

MTIA,

Very odd indeed. Scroll down in Modifications, maybe a hidden mod is activated there that you missed that is cancelling the toolbar. Otherwise, you've covered the basses...I've never seen this issue.

You just posted this screenshot on another thread and it appears to be this toolbar. Maybe it's the GCM one, which is really B&F edited.

Thanks RebBugler. Just scrolled down and there are no other mods.

Do you know if your toolbar is identical to the 'GCM toolbar'? If so, I've already got it :-)

edit: posts crossed.

So, you scrolled down and nada...this is crazy. Getting close to Halloween, gotta be Goblins. :woohoo:

The GCM toolbar is an outdated version of B&F.

Nope - it's me being clumsy. I've just been back to check my mods folder and found I had buried the Bugles and Flags folder inside another almost identically named Bugles and Flags folder! I'm a dolt. Thanks again for your help.

Thanks for this info. I'll play round with the B&F mod and see how it goes.

Edit: Have just started playing your GB in 3 days scenario. :woohoo: Amazing experience - thanks.

Thanks again,

Jeff

This HD Flag mod combines The Texas Brigade, the 3rd Bunting consolidation and four new state flag releases.

Attached is the stand alone mod, it is only effective with Bugles and Flags OOBs. This is presently planned to remain a separate mod, and not be consolidated into B&F with the next version. Feedback your ideas about this if you feel otherwise.

Place this mod below Bugles and Flags in Modifications and enable to replace the above mentioned flags.

HD ANV 1863 (12 Flags)

Shown again are the 3rd Bunting replacements plus four new HD state flags: North Carolina, Alabama, Virginia and Georgia
