Title: Unit Icons
Post by: TheVolskinator on November 04, 2010, 08:55:33 PM
Now, I can make the stats and have my graphs look all pretty, I can make a nice shiney concept. But I couldn't make Corsix work if you payed me and had Chuck Norris stand over me, knuckles cracking. I have no idea how; is there any way to edit the Unit Icons? E.G. seperate the photo/headshot of the vehicle/infantry from its white denotation symbol? Example; Swap out the Grenadier's '\/' for the correct '\v/' that was accidentaly assigned to Volks. Thanks in advance!  ;D 8)

 Yea.
 I was seriously wondering about that...
 
 It's different for COH_Blitzkrieg.
 So, it can obviously be done.
 (But then you won't be able to play EF with others) ;)
 
 But the question is...
 Which is the correct icon. And did Reliq fuck up on this??
 *GASP!*

Imo Volksgrenadier icon(\V/) is incorrect, is the grenadier icon in RL and vice versa.

Maybe this could be changed too in the allmighty 1.3 Patch

Anyway you're right.. I can imagine posts like "Where the fuck are my Volks?"

Just interesting to know that it's the other way round.

\/ is 'Shutze' or Private, and \v/ is 'Unteroffizier' or 'Under-Officer'; Corporal. As Grenadiers are more advanced and tough, and Volksgrenadiers were historically poor fighters (boys and old men :3), it figures that Grenadiers would have the higher rank of the two--think the Americans; Riflemen have the US' Private ensignia as their symbol, whilst their closest counterparts, Rangers, have the US' Corporal ensignia. /endnerdgasm.
