DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO CHANGE THE COLORS OF THESE ITALIAN UNITS TO MATCH WWii ANNIVERSARY ONES
-
I HAVE TRIED TO GET THESE ITALIAN UNITS TO BE BLUE LIKE IN WW II ANNIVERSARY BUT I'M NOT HAVING ANY LUCK. I DO NOT LIKE ITALY IS GREEN AND SO IS UNITED STATES.
I LIKE THE FLAGS AT THE BOTTOM OF THESE UNITS.
THANKS

@TonyMez You can try an AI image editor, instructing it to change green to blue.

Having to choose, it makes more sense for the Italians to be green than the Americans. Green is the traditional color of Italy, sort of like blue for France.

@Cernel actually the current set up is more historically accurate the US basically had an official color (olive drab) for everything but naval units in ww2. so troop uniforms vehicles and aircraft

this color is basically what we r using now for US in most maps.
italy on the other hand had a mix grey green or light grey green for troops and vehicles, ash grey with red and white stripes for naval vessels and kind of all over the map for aircraft.

@ubernaut I meant as a national colour. The French were also not blue any longer in WW2. Obviously, the Russians were not red either: that is the international colour of Communism made into a national colour. The actual colour of the Italian infantry, though, was actually mostly grey with a hint of green: it was called "grigioverde", which means "grey-green".

China is green, United States is green. I like blue. I tried using an AI but couldn't seem to figure it out. I have paint.net but can't rub out every unit with an eraser. I am trying to use these units because they are color enhanced, the rest have flags under them but Italy in blue. Anyone know an AI that cleans off these flags or 1 that adds flags or 1 that changes colors. I played around with a few ai's but couldn't get it working.
I like the infantry units from the oil and snow except Italy. I got those infantry only and for Italy have this 1 because it has blue sort of in it.

If you like the Anniversary ones, you can copy and paste from it's units folder to your game.
Edit
will ping @ebbe as he did Oil and SnowEdit 2
This a good guide by Elk https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/3435/a-brief-guide-to-making-units-colorize-re-scale-etc -
@beelee I would suggest erasing the flags which is easy to do in Paint. There is no reason to have flags in unit images, as you can turn flags on with View/Flag Display/Small.
