Ingame screenshots

Why not make some of our favorite screenshots public?
- No such reason! Let' put together a gallery of nicely shaped ones.

I only humbly suggest not to publish some excessively brutal ones, if you happen to have such (torn apart people etc.)

This one is from a two-hour competitive game (with strategic points) on "metal and rails". We even managed to be at par on number of infantry casualties (about a thousand each side), while being ahead in number of destroyed tanks by about 30 (60+ on our account)!
Why I am describing all this? Well, it was the only game to turn that long and mercilessly bloody for me on that map ever. And I don't even have a damn replay (I deleted it about a week ago with all the unnecessary/outdated crap) :'(
Oh, yeah, about 15-20 percent (or so it appeared) of my casualties were due to "God of War": I've seen two of my guard squads vanish in bloody rain with one shell right in front of my twitching eyes, before the blood-lust had me blinded >:(
The level of play was rather at medium, since a really good players would have made short work of me and my occasional companion, I guess.

Re: Ingame screenshots

Sure. We could do with a Screenshot thread, think i'll sticky this.

Although, I think people should be able to post whatever they want... brutal or otherwise.

Did always like this early screenshot we showed off before release when v1.0 was nearing completion.

I still oppose to any excessive and explicit violence (such as dismembered bodies), since I consider myself a humanist, and, I hope, others mind themselves that as well.

Well, you know, I'll kill a man without a slightest doubt, if necessary, but I won't hang a picture of his corpse above my bed.

Enough OT. I'm out on that.

Re: Ingame screenshots

Well, I doubt people will post pictures of just body parts as they don't make for interesting screenshots, although I wouldn't cast somebody down if they posted an image of a howitzer shell landing in the heat of battle and there just happens to be something that resembles a dismembered corpse being flung into the air because of it.

Anyway, some more images.

Partisan smash!

Re: Ingame screenshots

Wish I had my screenshot of my recon plane attack. The Wehr player had a Flak 88 set up, with a forward HQ not too far from it, guarding it were 2 MGs, a couple gren squads with shrecks and a Nebelweffer.

I called in a recon plane to see if I could find any other units, such as PaKs expecting an approach and possibly get a bomb run to obliterate them.

The Flak 88 immediately shoots the recon plane down. I'm sitting there cursing the enemy to death when I realize what just happened:

The plane went directly down towards the flak, giving a direct collision into the Foward HQ, destroying the building and some of the MGs/Grens near it. The flak took extremely heavy damage (The explosion killed the crew!) I was so thrilled, in essense I had inflicted about a 1000+ manpower loss on the enemy, sad I don't have that replay :(

#63140

Re: Ingame screenshots

No the Stuka screenshot isn't from another mod; I took the screenshot while watching my EF replays.  My skinpack just has the Stuka do the AT runs instead of the Henschel.  I finally got the siren sound for it working today too, so I got excited and posted some screens.

Re: Ingame screenshots

oh quit whining!  ;D  Here you go...

Chancellor's Stuka

The stuka in my skinpack represents the Junkers Ju 87 G version (nicknamed Kanonenvogel), which means it has 37mm flak guns to attack enemy armor.  It was the perfect plane to replace the default Henschel HS 129, which was both inefficient and also produced in small numbers.

Re: Ingame screenshots

Chancellor, which mod is this? I know the taskbar is the one by Steiner, but I'm interested in the StuKa  :)
By the way great sound on it. Scares the shit out of the enemies.

I shot this video watching my EF Sublime replays with my personal skinpack on.  The only mod I ever play is EF.

Credits for Stuka skin (which was further modified by myself) go to Slayerknecht
Credits for Stuka model go to Mr. Scruff
Credits for Stuka siren go to Crasius

The content these modders contributed are on Relic's Ammo Box.  However if you want to get it in your game or your own skinpack, you'd need to do a lot of modding.  It took me several hours to implement this into my own skinpack.  The stuka siren was especially a pain to implement.  All is not rosy yet either, since I still have to find out how to get the front propellers working.

So Chancellor, where did you get the SS thunderbolts for some unit from?

The purple actually has nothing to do with my skinpack.  Its turned on by the team colors option in CoH.  I use it since I think it gives an advantage in competitive play.  :)

The SS unit symbols are used for my Pgrens.
I think I got them from Celestial, but I'm not entirely sure since that was a long time ago.  I might have even made them myself since I'm 100% sure I personally altered the PG portraits.

Here's a longer Stuka video, since I believe the first one was too short.  It also shows the team colors, which makes all players have a different unit selection color.  This is good when you are playing 2v2, and you are facing something like dual American.  It helps to know whether you are being double teamed or not.

Yeah, i realize the player colors aren't part of a skinpack; It's that i really hate those colors, because all they do is confuse. Purple is a mix of blue and red, so how the hell are you supposed to tell if they are your allies or not?! Sure, it's easy with some units such vehicles, because you know what army has what vehicle, but the spanners of builders for example are the same, so on the Tactical Map you don't know without looking at the unit models, or perhaps the number of units in the squad. It's just so much easier with you blue, allies yellow, enemies red.

Re: Ingame screenshots

My skinpack is 100% online multiplayer compatible.

However, before I can publicly release, I'd need to get permission from A LOT of skinners and modders; and some of them may not be too pleased that I edited their work.  Also, as we all know, there is a new patch coming from Relic, so I'd have to re-mod some of the contents to make it compatible with the new patch anyhow.

But to get you guys more excited, I have another screenshot to share:

Awesome! And the female skin actually works with Medics, because they don't have voices. Although i'm not too sure how historically accurate that is...

Re: Ingame screenshots

I'm not too sure about that, since the model generously provided to me by Tiger205 only works on the volks / medic uniform.  I tried adding a naval cap on her head myself, but it didn't work out.  I'll try to ask the man himself later.

Re: Ingame screenshots

But, you have to shoot the medics  :'(

Seriously though, where is that female model from originally? Maybe we can obtain some voice lines( don't have to be much) and turn one into a female soviet sniper

Its the best I could do with what I was provided.  Also if you look closely in WB, their bodies are actually a little slimmer than volks, although they have the same height.

Re: Ingame screenshots

It's easy. Just do the following to make it look best:

- open console (depends on you language, for you Ctrl+Shift+~ I think)
- type /taskbar_hide
- type /game_hideui
- if you are watching a replay, you may also enter /message_hide
  to disable the "Replay" message on the screen
- Now simply press the "Print" button on your keyboard or use a
  screenshot program like Fraps.
- if you want to go another step further and take an ultra high
  resolution picture, type /Misc_SuperScreenshot

Have fun :D

Re: Ingame screenshots

When you take a screenshot with the print screen key, it should automatically save here:
C:\Users\pariah\Documents\My Games\Company of Heroes\screenshots
Alternatively, you can paste it in Paint or a similar program, but that will of course only allow you to take 1 per game.
