OK, Correction done with Boehm-Bezing_Diether_von_colour_ger pic.

Click to expand...

that should be the right one (from unithistories.com)


EDIT: L60475 and L60476 (US Admiral Turner) - is that a double?

Gauché was an infantry officer so his uniform model 1931 (Grande Tenue) should look like this one (which is an infantry major uniform).

v23 is mainly about France/Vichy and SOV + the vichy event and the purges event.
a few germans and USAians as well + a bit of random, hope u like

(now preparing for hibernation)

thank you benden - just in case you spot a mistake in the vichy event, or other mistakes in general, please let me know. this was a hill to digest and to paint, so errors are possible.

as for the 33 scenario, i didnt make Fleck, but Schaumburg
http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Personenregister/S/SchaumburgErnst.htm
http://unithistories.com/units_index/default.asp?file=../officers/personsx.html
(ex Mölders position)

thanks!

theres another detail in the SOV CSV, a land leader with the superior tactician trait.
i missed to switch him to air force (do this and the mistake is corrected). iirc it was Kutsevalov http://generals.dk/general/Kutsevalov/Timofei_Fedorovich/Soviet_Union.html
if its not him i dont know, i corrected it and forgot who it was, just search for the "4096" with a missing "2" for air force in the CSV.
he is a replacement; most "originals" can be found here

thanks, the catroux pic is great!

benden said:

and yes I remember this link on soviet aces and PI making some of them Commando leaders!

Click to expand...

funnily there is also Alexander Rutskoy as a soviet general (was replaced). his name ingame was Ruckoy or similar.


i think Rubtsov is still in, but a lot has been replaced

EDIT: just found 1947 pic of general Darius Bloch a.k.a. Paul Dassault (1882-1969)!! artillery, BG 1933, MG 1936, LTG 1938, G 1947, end 1948 (in reserve from 01/42 by Vichy then reactivated in 08/44).

i already have him since stonyroad times, i was holding him back as i thought this pic was made later (1953 - as described at the bottom)?



i'm kind of inactive right now, if you dig out more it would make sense to add the new findings in one post and update this one. last time we discussed the french leaders i had to search 3 pages to find the links and promotion dates when i had the time to paint them - just to make things easier for me if you dont mind - but i'm kind of a "dormant leader" right now . just doing research, eg expecting some good news for ITA air force HERE.


liked the Bertrand pic a lot, though.



btw as theres no new version in sight it would make sense to play a bit (if you like) and hunt down mistakes if possible. every little typo or tweak for promotion dates or traits is welcome.


i uploaded a file for dormant german leaders and the anschluss event here - just in case you're interested. hungarian ss leaders stay dormant as those divisions were created in a certain situation; Falkenhausen stays dormant as well as AoD has a "giveleader" event-command (dont know exactly if eg DH also has this) - just in case this is needed.



EDIT: btw, we have this guy in france called Paskewicz (L24208)
the pic can be found here:
http://www.history.navy.mil/photos/images/h79000/h79962l.htm

Major Paskewicz, French Air Force;

i think we can exclude this one.

however theres a person with a similar name:
http://digicoll.library.wisc.edu/cg...=div&did=HISTORY.OMG1948N135.I0019&isize=text
memeber of the allied control commission after the surrender of germany (maybe 47)

Mr. Burck
Eng. Gen. E. Paszkiewicz
Principal Eng. (Major)

Click to expand...

and i think i have the pic of him:



should be the person on far left (together with Westropp http://generals.dk/general/Westropp/Victor_John_Eric/Great_Britain.html

Mr. Raw
Maj. Gen. V. S. E. Westropp
Air Comdr. R. N. Waite

Click to expand...

i think the "S." is a typo) - do you know him?

How do you install?

Click to expand...

well you take eg the soviet leaders CSV from "ZZZZZ - CSVs" (make sure you have made a backup of your original) and drop it at the right place (db/leaders)
then you copy the pics in (gfx/interface/pics) - those wont overwrite anything.

load game to see if it works. - same for the rest.

NB this uses AoD or my JAP/ROM mods as base, for those countries.

rwglaub said:

And what about the ones in misc?

Click to expand...

these are country specific gfx for GER/JAP/SOV. unlike the skins you can only use one set of gfx. so if you eg play SOV, copy those in your "gfx/interface" folder.

should look like these images if you for example attack:

i'm slowly but surely defrosting; here's a little preview for those interested



first line POL (eg Langner, Fabrycy, Boncza-Uzdowski, Grzmot-Skotnicki, Jagmin-Sadowski, Knoll-Kownacki, Prich and others - dang i had to copy-paste those names lol)
2nd line SOV (3 admirals - 2 new - + Kozyr + Bagramian no 2)
and an alternative for Johann Pflugbeil, GER



EDIT:

Karpon;9999;SOV;1942;1944;1990;1990;2;6;4;2;0;5;0;L9999;1942;1970;x

Click to expand...

L9999 = this image

thanks, i'll remember this one.

little preview: Sava Ivanov TT pic:
