Model graphics

[unmerged(61671)]

Hello my little easter bunnies,

Can someone tell me how/where a unit is associated with its particular model image (the pretty pictures stored in the models folder)? Somehow, regardless of nation, the images for units are the same - I mean, a German and soviet basic tactical bomber will both have a HE-111 pic (which is in the folder as model_2_0 or something similar). Now, I don't mind the kraut images being like that, but why are the soviets also using model_2_0 and not sov_model_2_0. I use graphics mods (Skif and GIP). Any ideas?

Happy easter to all,
Tidilicious

Obviously they don't have a picture for that Soviet model, whatever that is. If you want a nation-specific model picture, there must be one with the nation's tag titled like "sov"_model_2_0, otherwise the game will just use a generalized picture for all models.

At the top of my head: the ill_div_sov_15_0 should depict the basic tactical bomber. But I am somewhat surprised you're actually missing out on it, actually. AFAIK the majors all have reasonable coverage modelwise, and certainly the basic model by and large is present in the original graphics setup.
