    Default A few requests for the Great War team-

    Sorry I haven't been on the TGW forums for a while. Don't worry you guys still hold the title of my favorite mod. I just had some requests for 5.0.

    1. Please make "Desert" themed units. For example can the British please have Australian calvary with tan uniforms, and Aussie style Smokie bear hats. (The hats the US faction's troops have right now would be a nice start for an australian desert uniform.) And maybe the Ottomans can have tan uniforms which would be nice for maps that take place in the Desert, etc. (The pyramids is one of my favorite maps.)

    2. Please make a Canadian faction or add more Canadian units to the British faction.

    3. Please fix the Scottish Highland infantry. (Glengarry bonnets, bagpipes, and different color kilts for different regiments.)

    4. A question not a request- Will their be any new factions implemented in 5.0?

    5. Another question sorry.- Will we see the American Faction updated with better uniforms, etc.?

    6. Last question- What kind of updates will we see in the United Kingdom Faction that you guys are free to mention?

    1. I can't answer specifically, but if they are historical most likely yes
    2. We are still discussing how to implement extra units, though its likely we will be avoiding an excess of units... though its always a good sub-mod idea
    3. We will do the best we can
    4. Yes, and in 4.6, but they won't be fleshed out until 5.0
    5. Eventually, I assume yes
    6. Pretty much the same as every other faction, more news on that soon

    I hope that was satisfactory.

    It does amaze me how the NTW community complain so much should an officers button be in the wrong place. Let's get major things into the game first like modelled machine gun units and worry about petty small uniform things later.

    It's madness I've only seen this need for correct uniforms in ETW and NTW!!

    Well Aanker has done a wonderful job in texturing so that we do have some new helmets (picklehaube, adrians, etc), even if they aren't proper models or correct in every way.

    I agree. If I overly cared about uniforms, I wouldn't have liked TGW in the first place...

    If you model the helmets, texture them and then program a tool that can convert a model format to the variant part mesh model format and send us a link to your work then yes.

    Until then your gona have to stay annoyed.

    Yes, we have Picklehaubes, adrians, a new French hat and an altered British cap, etc. All added in with some cheating by Aanker.

    However the ability to import our helmet models created from scratch still alludes us.

    That said, the uniforms as a whole are a lot improved.

    I don't think that the Canadians, ANZACs and the Indian Army needs a separate faction. They were elite units that were fielded by the BEF.

    Agreed. The CEF as a whole would make a great submod, but atleast a single elite unit of Canucks is good enough

    By realeased i mean free the country of the german occupation,i think it would be better than seeing france getting control of all europe lol.

    Yes, it would be very interesting, but also rather difficult to work out well. Maybe if there's a way in the future
