He's really good at trying to tempt guys into coming over to "his side"!
I too, play in all of my JT HPS/JTS games is 2D.
To clarify things so I know what needs to get added to my MODS folder, the units 50 and 100 files are the new files?
Yeah, in the info folder: units
map folder: units 2d50 and 2d100
vehicles 2d50 and 2d100
And I threw in the 2d50 and 2d100 symbols file I'm using. Ed's are in the 1.0 folder.
I changed a couple things and made a composite of the good stuff that is already out there.
I put it all in one .zip, just to keep it simple.
I like all my stuff to match. Meaning like there is a info vehicle file for Korea, but no 2d50 or 2d100 files to go with it. I'm working on that when I can.

I put a ton of time into them in the first place and thought they were nice, but Dan put even more time into them and made them even nicer! I too only use the 2D views, but Dan went even deeper into the project
to make up the 50 scale units!
I knew that do updates was hard, but the time you put into each one is crazy! Winter War was
kind of easy since there isn't that many units to do. I was nutty on trying to find period correct
units. I spent hours/ nights looking for the Soviets with the 30's type hats & helmets!
Dan is a hell of a great guy like you! He drove me crazy! I would spend hours/ nights cleaning/ trimming/ touching up images and getting them scale to the proper bmp maps and he would take what I thought was good and send back an image even better than mine LOL!
Then Dan went one step further and took Bill's awesome art and changed around colors and added more details to the 50 & 100 bmp files!
As Dan stated before with the bmp maps. I had to do a unit map and then
start over and build a new info bmp map. If you try to just make one and
scale it up or down, you get the pink pixel issue. It will drive you fruity trying to fix it!
Again. Thanks to you & Dan for pushing me to a higher level!
PS: Speaking of "Dark Side".
We have 27 World Series titles vs 2?
Even Luke could see that the "dark side" is brighter in the end
Well Ed and I have had some great Squad battles matches and we are often up working and playing until the wee hours. He's turned out to be a great friend and as I mentioned, really a lot of fun to work with and to shoot at
