Main efforts lately has been improvements to the visibility of 2D map graphics, allowing for better operational planning without straining the eyes. Stone walls are more recognizable now as well:

2D extreme zoom:

2D normal zoom:

And 3D zoom has cleaned up rough terrain and other minor efforts:

Was going to ask on your forum but I don't see it anymore but I'm not getting any 3D units in the HPS Antietam game, just the bases. Any idea of what I need to do? I love what you guys have done to really breathe new life into the games.

No, not the map or unit graphics.

So you see 2D units but not 3D units? that's something odd. None of the Banshee mods change the actual units graphics. If you don't see either 2D or 3D you have probably toggled off units on the "View" setting.

Check your Campaign Antietam/Map folder; it should have the highlighted files which are your 3D bitmaps:

If not, let me know and I can email them to you.

Great work Rich, I must get back to the 3d units. I have got lost in the world of learning how to play guitar.
Nice to see the team is still having some input while we wait for a new civil war title. MUST BE ONE SOON!!!!!!
