OMA PzC Kharkov42 Graphics Mod

[OneManArmy]

This mod is for HPS PzC Kharkov42
Only graphic files were modified. No scenario files were changed, so you can continue a current saved game without any issues. This mod is intended to be used with Volcano and Map mod. Install this mod last. Should you not like this mod, simply install Volcano and Map mod in the normal way. 

List of features:
1. New Unitbox graphics for all nations.
2. Jison's WitE counters ported over for all nations. (with his permission)
3. Unique portrait style graphics for Army Group, Front and Corps level units.
4. Alternative highlighting for selected formation.
5. Additional counter detail;
    a. HQ units have a yellow stripe
    b. Artillery units have orange corner
    c. Engineer units have green corner
    d. Motorized units have red corner
    e. Hard Target units have white corner
    f. Anti-aircraft units have light blue corner
   g. Armour units have white around the NATO symbol
(The color corners are only visible on the top counter in a stack)
6. Rivers are darker.
7. Strela's mine and fortification hexes (with his permission) 

It is possible to use selected parts of the mod should you not like the complete mod.

I have tested the mod on #02 The Second Battle of Kharkov_Alt battle. Should you find any mistakes please let me know.

Version 1
Repacked the mod in .zip

Version 2
Added purple corner for Anti-Tank units

Version 3
Added photo portraits for all HQ units. Should you spot errors or can contribute a accurate photo I will correct or add it.
I mostly used http://www.generals.dk/  

Version 4
Added photo portraits down to Panzer Regiment commanders. The Kharkov_Alt3_McNamara oob file was edited but only name changes of commanders. Backup the original file before you copy the file over. It is not necessary to use the modified oob file, you can still enjoy most of the features of the mod.

Credits
All credit goes to the original designers. I just put it together with my spin on it.

Cheers

Hi David, didn't realize. Thanks for being cool about it.

I'd like to try out your mod but when I try to unzip it gives an "invalid zip file" error. I have tried downloading more than once to see if that's the problem but still no good.

Any ideas or is it just me?

I had the same problem running Windows 10, but used WinZip.

Running Windows 7 and using WinZip but don't know what's the problem.   I can unzip other files sent to me.

Might be something I did. I had to change the file extension manually from .7z  to .zip or was it from .rar to .zip 

I'm running Windows 7 too

I did that when uploading the mod, seems the upload process did not recognize a .7z or was it .rar file. (sorry can't remember which file extension I tried first)

Do you mind trying http://www.7-zip.org/ It's free.

That worked! Thank you. I kind of figured there probably was another extraction program out there that would do the trick.

BTW - your mod looks really good. Nicely done.
