Description:

From the original author of a popular mod for Men of War!
Limbs and wailings will fly high above the burning battlefield, blood will flow through the misshapen landscape, air will thicken with gunpowder and death – the Gates of Hell are wide open in this reworked conversion of the 2011 classics!

– Explosives and vehicles have a chance of ripping a soldier apart on contact
– Blood decals have been reworked, adding more variety and subtle details
– The number of decals, debris and bodies have been increased, along with their lifetime
– Original handmade 3D models and textures based on vanilla game
– NEW! You can pick up some of the body parts and throw them at your enemies, or just store them on your belt as a trophy

* This mod disables unlocking of Achievements
** Did my best to optimize all values, model complexity, and texture size to have a minimal impact on game performance

Multiplayer compatibility has been confirmed by one of the subcribers*

*although I haven’t tested it myself

this mod works for me in multiplayer with my friend @xzTWINzx, last night we ran it alongside the Boikovo map mod other than those 2 mods we were running it vanilla

Only a handful of files has been edited, and BM Mod should work fine with other mods that do not alter materials’ properties.
You are welcome to leave a comment in case of compatibility issues, and I will look into it. Screenshots of the crash message or in-game bugs are very welcome too.

Always load/activate as the last mod on your list ( Main menu –> Extras ).

– Cold War/Hotmod 1968 should be working fine.

– Conquest Enhanced V2 reported to be incompatible with BM Mod. Testing needed.

– Battlefield is incompatible with BM Mod.

The chance of corpse/body explosion depends on the blast power or vehicle size and a flat 30% chance when explosion is triggered. In other words, small AP grenades or a motorbike will cause way fewer explosions, in comparison to a 150 mm HE shell or a heavy tank.

Currently, the following mod options are available:

"___high_res_textures"
Copy and overwrite to try high resolution textures for the bodyparts.

( to make sure you are in the correct folder, you can open a file called "preview.jpg" – it will show the same "BM Mod" image as on Steam workshop page )
