How long are weeks in Germany?Anyway, how long will it take untill the next release?
Please be patient, am sure Halftrack&BotB Team is working to get a release for you guys atm.
I just hope this will be "steam-compatible"![]()
ok, so i have the root folder, but how do i start it? wheres the .exe file?
#1359
its in the rar file. To extract that, you will need winrar.
I recommend to wait for the next version, which will be released this week
and which provides an installer.
This week....??? OH SNAP!!!! CRACKEL POP!!!! HURAAY!!!!!!!!!!
Never confuse a single defeat with a final defeat!
Huzzah! I've been waiting for this release since you updated the thread title :P

Will the installer version install correctly with the Steam version of COH OF?![]()
Also, will you allow us to pick the directory?![]()
#1365
I am not doing the installer,
but as far as I know it works without problems with steam,
but chooses the directory by itself.
With great mods comes great responsibility.
Seriously now, no need to pressure the team for a release. We can all wait as long as nessecary.
I'm a little confused with the installer thingy though, but I don't think there will be any instalation problems.

Joke between German soldiers (mid 1943 and afterwards).
Certainly a highly anticipated mod, a total new gaming experience as i could see it from the current version. No rush taken, surely Halftrack will deliver a big hit...and with the installer too!
Eh...that was the longest week i ever had waiting lol... patience![]()
Yeah! It certainly is a highly anticipated MOD!!! The work done on it has saved me from doing my own realism project!!!Certainly a highly anticipated mod, a total new gaming experience as i could see it from the current version.
I just want to add, it is safe for me to say: "this MOD is made of game experience dreams come true."
#1369
well, just wait and play before making such statements![]()
Nice to see it's released THIS week.(as it said in the topic title)

Sorry couldnt resist![]()
Update 'THIS Week' to 'Tomorrow' or 'Friday' and It would be awesome.
DANG IT!!!! I'lll head over there right now... wait... I"M AT WORK!!! WTF!!! I would have taken today off had I know this yesterday or this AM>That is very likely. In fact, it HAS been released some minutes ago. exclusively for our Forum Members. It will completely "go public" on friday.![]()
I can survive till tomorrow, but...i hope the installer will work.
I know how fucked up things may get with installers...they are relatively easy to build but many things can go wrong. It's time to lit a candle and start the prayers so that tomorrow everything is working fine. After such a wait ! lol![]()
#1382
#1383
officially, yes. reading posts might help.![]()
the mod works for me fine, nothing wrong with the installer, nice work and many thanx to the whole BotB team
holy sh
I just realized I took tomorrow off of school before you announced Friday was release. This was a good decision. o.o
were the hmgs damage lowered? as they completely owned in the earlier versions and now they dont
#1387
as the pre release is BotB Forum related, please be so kind and ask THERE!!!
i play BotB v2 and i must to say that i very like the new symbols and resources system (the manpower isnt decreases when you are building or reinforce infantry), but i think that you need to increase the damage of the small arms and increase the cooldown of the panzershreck or the bazooka when it in ambush postion (i never saw someone which can fire and reload bazooka or panzershreck in this speed)
I guess a good changelog from version to version could also be useful...as well as a full documentation (apart from the excellent pdf manual) of changes from Vanilla to BotB. These things should be kept both in forums and in the mod dir as docs to be consulted anytime.
I must say the presentation with the movie and the music is awesome...leaves me to wonder the title of the song...whose beginning is basically the same of Battlefield 2. Been wondering since then. Anyone knows?
Another song i would have always liked to know the title for (and maybe someone here knows since the team is german i guess) is the one coming from Silent Hunter 3, the greywolves mod.
Speaking of mods? This one surely makes the vanilla game outdated. I wouldn't mind if i was the producer to really enlist these guys into professional modding...give em the tools i say!![]()
#1391
Yes, its released right now. First Post updated.
@GShock: Yea, a proper documentation would be very useful, but
my spare time didnt allow me yet to document all the changes....

Just go to YouTube, and type in BF1942 theme.Originally Posted by GShock74
Halftrack,
Is it maybe also possible to remove the resource system myself? It's really nicely made, but I prefer to capture points.![]()
Hehehehe it takes a tome to write down all the changes
Great job nonetheless...who's gonna ever play OF again? Not me that's for sure.
Some more training with it, then im all on the MP with BoTB
#1394
yes it is... go to BotB/Data/Scar and rename the atc.scar file.
BUT, beleive me, if you played that for a while, you wont like anything else again.![]()
Downloading right now. Will it harm my original CoH, or is it paralell to it like the 1st version?
I will use Google before I ask dumb questions!
#1396
like said in 1st post, it doesnt alter anything of original CoH
i think the US easy 8 is overpowered. My tank solo took out 1/2 of the enemies. And my AI allies all cluster in the middle of the map.
But overall great mod.
just watched the replay...my tank took out 4 stugIV, 2 puma, 2 halftrack, 2 hezter and 2 marder howitzer. LOL![]()

I don't think it is overpowered. The AI is certainly not up to par. Try playing with a human opponent. You'll find that even a STUG will/can take out your Easy 8.I think the US easy 8 is overpowered. My tank solo took out 1/2 of the enemies. And my AI allies all cluster in the middle of the map.

What you will find is that Line of Site is what will win you almost every tank battle. Thus, infantry is imperative to the effectiveness of your tanks.![]()
