I am reinstalling my nappy games.. I use a graphics mod for Waterloo from Volcano Man but is behaving oddly.

I have issues with the default set of 2D unit Counters and I play exclusively in 2D mode.

after installing the mod, some units are showing BLUE squares instead of indication infantry, cavalry or arty.

any thoughts? Thye worked before but that was before any changes WDS may have made...

if Volcano man is no longer good, does any on have or know of a similar mod?

I would say that the mod is outdated as it was made 2007, the changes that all the updates since then introduced have altered the scenarios in a way that some things don't work anymore.

I got in touch with Steve Trauth, former NWC member of the French side.

He has provided me with what I need. Note that he only gave me the 2DSymbolsLG file

He did mention however that the Volcano Man graphics mods will no longer work with the current version of the games. Something to do with changes to the map file but I could be mistaken made at some point in the past.

Not sure if we want to keep this particular mod around for downloading

I was just going to email Steve this morning! Glad he was able to provide you with something that works.

Please do send it to me, so I can add it to the downloads section. Do you still have my email on file or should I send you one?
