Tested by Dave Molinarolo (Maximus), Gordon Molek,
Marco Bergman, Michael Dorosh, and Marcel Vie (Pawbroon).
Based on: Original BTS CMBO textures. Basis for some
of the .bmp's from the Carrier mod created by Marcel Vie (used with his kind permission).
Some nationality / divisional markings are taken from Michael Dorosh's websites CANUCK and
TOMMY (with his kind assistance) The bogie wheels are modified versions of Marco Bergman's
work from his excellent Stuart mod, and are used with his permission.
Resolution: High
Programs used: Adobe PhotoDeluxe; Paint
Shop Pro 4.12
Compatibility: Mod Manager & CMMOS
compliant.
Known faults: Nothing major at this time. The 3D
model for the Universal Carrier provided with the game appears to be based around a 3 in.
Mortar Carrier. My reasoning for this is that on the rear panel of the personnel
compartment there is a 3D shape which appears to mimic the shape of a stowed 3 in. mortar
tube lashed in place. The stock CMBO .bmps would seem to bear this out. If you use
the 3 in Mortar Carrier option you will see the shape textured to look like a stowed
mortar tube as was originally conceived.
NOTE: users of the Mod Manager compliant files will notice
that there is no extra"_"suffixes at the end of each file in the individual
folders. The "_" suffixes are only for the CMMOS version.

Polish 3-Inch
Mortar Carrier:
This mod was done to provide a basic Polish Universal 3 in. Mortar Carrier to use when

Polish 1'st Armored Div., and is based upon my interpretation only.
