Just try it out. A lot of research and work has gone into this. I'm still working on this mod. This mod works with the base game V1.047.0 and the ENGLISH localisation of the game. It changes all unit descriptions and font colors in Campaign, Conquest, Skirmish and Multiplayer. It also changes the Buy Menu in Skirmish and Multiplayer.

At least for me, it makes the game a lot easier to play because now you know what you will get. It does not change any values of units (range, damage, etc). You can easily see the changes in EXTRAS - UNITS LIBRARY. Feel free to post any comments, critics etc.

I concept this mod as a good addition for my other mods:

V1.050.0 Germany Uncensored

V1.048.0 Finland Uncensored

This mod does not change the Buy Menu in the Singleplayer Campaign (I'm still working on that files...), because the singleplayer files are completely different from the multiplayer files used in Conquest, Skirmish, Multiplayer etc.

• German "Wehrmacht" units vehicles/weapons are now highlighted in a Light Gray
• Soviet "Red Army" units vehicles/weapons are now highlighted in a Light Red
• Finnish "Puolustusvoimat" units vehicles/weapons are now highlighted in a Light Blue
• American "US Armed Forces" units vehicles/weapons are now highlighted in a Light Green
• Commonwealth units vehicles/weapons are now highlighted in a Light Brown

• In the Buy menu, you can see now the amount (X) of soldiers you will receive
• In the Buy menu, the correct caliber of any vehicle, gun or rifle is now displayed

• Red Army units names are changed back to their original cyrillic name
• Corrected Sd.Kfz. and Kfz. numbers are added and displayed in Dark Grey
• Historical suggestive names are now displayed in Dark Red for all factions
• Improved weapon / gear / ammo / magazine / caliber descriptions for all factions
• Corrected many german spelling errors (I'm german...)
• The kill log / event history is now easier to read (who kills who - with what?)
• Many upper and lower case corrections and other small changes

• Replaced "Squad" with "Gruppe" for Wehrmacht (9-12 soldiers)
• Replaced "Team" with "Trupp" for Wehrmacht (2-8 soldiers)
• Replaced "Engineers" with "Pioniers" for Wehrmacht

Is this/will this be expanded to Valour/compatible with Valour?

Okay :steamthumbsup:

Its a small fix and will be in the next update

With the new update adding armor thickness values when hovering over an armoured vehicle, there is the bug caused by the mod to instead write: mp/scene/hint_armor_thickness

I'm not an expert, but I think it is caused by the colors being.. incompatible? I don't know if this can be fixed. Just saying.

Ok I see what you mean. Improvment will be in next update.
Colditz  [author] 3 Feb @ 9:20am 
Thanks for the hint. I will take a look at the original files and compare them.

Think I found another minor bug. Both of the Jackson variants are classified as (Early) when I am guessing the M36B on the sherman hull is supposed to be (Late)

Why? Found any important bugs or huge changes?
