Holy... This just blew my mind! Didn't expect such a big update at the moment but this is awesome! I love the look of Trench Raiders but even more the moustache of the Commander
Very detailed work, congratulation and a big thanks to the whole team. Just nice & neat
Wow, really cool, but which weapon do the trench-raiders use?

@huetti
as far as I know Trench Raiders mostly used effective melee weapons such as knifes and clubs but judging by the picture here I guess they are happy to use sawed-off shotguns or SBS'
Awesomebut i cant see the first picture..

Omg-tastic stuff!!! I cannot wait to play this.
The BEF stuff looks cool. Have you got any plans regarding the implementation of Commonwealth troops such as Canadians and Australians?
very nice. cant wait.

Thank you for the comments ^^
So... geeks dig moustaches? :P

We kept the faction sufficiently generic for it to portray any national contingent that served amongst the B.E.F., and that includes the dominions (not that it's hard given the high level of standardisation). If you want to consider your company to be from Canada, Newfoundland, New Zealand or South Africa then you can already do so with the current models (although Australia might need a bit of suspension of disbelief due to their uniform being the only one not to follow the cut of the British SD).
are you gonna include the Royal Welsh Miners (Demolition Experts)?? they were proved to be vital to Trench Raiding in 1918 (dug underneth the trenches and layed about 1,000 tons of Explosives and blew apart the entire Trench Line) they were 1st used in 1916 before the tank was introduced and they were used to break the stalemate of Trench Fighting, but they were still used in 1918
Im just glad that this isnt dead XD the space in between the updates is killer, its nice to get a breather
AKA Sad_eyed_Irony!!
any ideas when this mod will be released the ww1 theme looks interesting
Just take a look at previous page. #241
And hell yeah, this is interesting!
Awesome!! Nice job Jorge!!
That is amazing work. Nice job!

Just an idea, with ToV and the Reward Units tab, why not add reward units which replace the infantry units with squads using models skins of another nation?
If you've got an OE guy, you could even just have a state added to the infantry models that adds an entity upgrade that changes the skin. This way you wouldn't need a pile of copies of the infantry squads, entities, and models... just the one set of everything and a few different skins. It'd be a good way for a player to make his infantry represent the nation of his choosing without much extra work.
any word on this mod? The BEF looked INCREDIBLE! I CANT WAIT
Ja Vol?
Is it dead? I hope not ..
no,of course it isn't...don't you dare to say that again
no mate,just kidding but seriously,it isn't dead,sometime ago the developers said that it was a lot easier and time saving to work out the mod and then add a little update

Ok I really wanna see this mod out. I was just wondering because on there website and here there hasn't been a post for sometime.
Yes the mod is still alive. There's always something we are working on behind the scenes.
We only post updates in batches as they have more impact then.
Besides then it's unlikely we'll post here unless we're prompted to reply to someone.
I saw this on the mod DB website the other day and it looks truly epic.
I love the trench raiders and the Mark V models. Epic. Truly epic.
Please give us something playable soon!

This mod is going to rock, can't wait. Keep up the good work
UPDATE V: German War Machine
A few weeks ago the mod team finished some of its last ingame German Army faction models, with only buildings and the B.E.F faction left to do. To celebrate this important stage in development we’ll showcase a few of the models we haven’t shown so far, including basic and commander tree specific artillery.
7.7cm field guns: FK 96 n.A. & FK 16
At the start of the war the model 96 was the main field gun in service with the German artillery. It was very mobile, but otherwise outclassed by its Entente equivalents. As a field gun it was designed with both direct and indirect fire in mind and could shoot a variety of shells, including smoke and chemicals.
The FK 16 was based on the FK 96 cannon combined with the howitzer carriage. It traded mobility for improved accuracy and better long range barrage fire thanks to its higher elevation.

10.5cm light howitzers: FH 98/09 & leFH 16
The 98/09 light howitzer was the German field artillery’s greatest advantage. It was available in large numbers and its powerful indirect fire made it a straight answer to trenches and fortifications.
The need to modernize the FH 98/09 led to the development of the light field howitzer model 16. Its range and accuracy was improved and it gained the ability to shoot chemical shells.
Spoiler
Spoiler
7.58cm leichter Minenwerfer
The light Minenwerfer was the smallest model of mortar in the German arsenal; it was also the most ubiquitous. It was an important support weapon for the infantry. Indirect fire made it well-suited for trench warfare and to deal with strongpoints.
Spoiler
Spoiler
Ehrhardt E-V/4
Lacking armoured cars of their own and faced with skilful use by the Belgians, the German Army sought to develop its own models during the war. Introduced in 1917, the E-V/4 was heavily armed with machine guns and protected by armour impervious to small arms fire. It was fast, but its heavy weight restricted all movements to roads.

Your skills and resources are absolutely fabulous mate. The more previews I see the more I wanna try it out!
It's so awesome to finaly see big progress in this mod.
Holy moly! That's fantastic! Absolutely mind-boggling work guys! You deserve a massive pat on the back, can't wait to see more stuff of this caliber
hooooly crap!!! nicely done guys,all of u..this is sooo awesome,I can't wait to have this mod downloaded,installed,launched and ready to be played!!!
thx for the preview
#279
Absolutely awesome. It looks really good to see another update, and i really love how the German infantry models look completely different because of the new models added to them.
Are the live shells on the ground next to the setup guns part of the gun's model? The shells really add something to the guns, and it looks better than the loader simply pulling 1 shell out of thin air all the time. At least with a pile of shells nearby, you see that they have a supply of shells with them.
will the Damage system more realistic or like vanilla Coh?
i hope it will be realistic...

(if anybody interested to create a late Tiger I model try this:
http://www.cohmods.com/tiger-i-late-t167.html)
This looks .... ... epic! :O
"If everyone smoked a blunt, relieve the mind, the world could be a better place."
@19.PzGrDiv..if I remember correctly the team said more than once time that the mod will have the v.CoH damage sytem or perhaps a little rised damage system,either way this is a mod I been really waiting for!!!
vCoH Damage system?
omg not another great mod with such a Bad unrealistic balancing....
i mean why do they all the work and make it look so Realistic and historical accurate if the Damagesystem himself is totally unrealistic?
(ive played EF one time and then never again because of this vCoH Damagesystem)
but the Vehicles/Skins and all the other stuff is a real beauty but with this Damagesystem i can say "bye bye" to this mod
I would have liked to answer "suit yourself, don't let the door hit you on the way out" since I'm that kind of person and I dislike hissy fits, however...
We raised the damage system from vanilla CoH. We've reached what we consider a satisfying level and just need to balance some weapons around it. As such we won't tweak it further.
I just recommend waiting until you can play the mod rather than starting to theorycraft about it now.
#285
19.PzGrDiv Balancewise the vCoH system is the best. However even in my mod I made my own custom weapon system (and after 2 years it's getting pretty well balanced). I like the way they want to keep the vanilla touch. If you don't like the fact the weapon system is not how you want it, you could also say it in a different wait instead of saying "now this mod will suck".
yeah sry but i was just suprised about this Damage system
because there are alot of better damage systems then the Vanilla one
Actually, I´m sure these guys are sadists...just watch - don´t touch...
Happy christmas to all and thanks for all your efforts these almost three years, jorge (and team).
How is the WW1 mod going? Any upcoming updates? Hope this isnt dead
Linux For The Win !

Of course it ain't dead dude, they take their time to make it of perfect quality
Oh by the way, it's forbidden by the forum rules to ask for updates.
Ok, thanks, and by the way, I really didn't "ask" for an update, I wanted to know if they were coming out with one anytime soon.
is it dead ??
"Of course it ain't dead dude, they take their time to make it of perfect quality.
Oh by the way, it's forbidden by the forum rules to ask for updates."
Seems familiar to me...
There will be an update in May.
oh by the way when i ask if the mod is dead i don't ask any update... just if i take time to see if an update is posted ... not the same thing ! I don't have time to follow a dead mod...
i know they're taking their time, it's a good thing but the previous message was from the 01.11, more then 3 months ago ...
good to ear that there's an update in may !! :o)
Any updates on this?
#296
Please ensure you read a thread before posting, Niftyeye. It doesn't matter if someone said there would be an update in May, the update will come when the mod team is ready to announce news.
There is no need to reply to this post, simply remember to follow forum rules and guidelines

This May update is skating on thin ice. Not long to go until June rears its ugly little head.
May isn´t over yet!

UPDATE VI: British War Machine
We are reaching the final stages of development before first release and this will be the last update focussing on a starting faction. All that’s left is some buildings, polishing the existing features and wait for mapmakers to finish their much needed work.
On another note, the TGW 1918 team has joined Inside1918, the team developing BF1918, the WW1 mod for Battlefield 1942. This has given us access to a wider range of talents and resources and it has already contributed to accelerating the mod’s release.
Now for a preview of the remaining B.E.F. vehicles:
Medium Mk A «Whippet»
The medium Mk A is a fast cavalry tank armed with machine guns. It is best used for breakthrough exploitation and harassment.
Spoiler
Mk V tank
The Mk V is the latest model in the line of British heavy tanks. Compared to its predecessor it is faster and more manoeuvrable. The inadequate Lewis guns have been replaced with Hotchkiss Mk I machine guns, and the upper cabin gives the tank commander a better field of vision.
Spoiler
Ordnance QF 18 pounder Field Gun
The main field gun of the B.E.F. is the 18-pounder. It has a higher rate of fire and range than its German equivalents, and is capable of both indirect barrage and direct fire. It can fire a variety of shells, including shrapnel, smoke and gas.
Spoiler
Ordnance QF 4.5 inch Howitzer
While lacking the 18-pounder’s mobility and direct fire capacity, the 4.5inch howitzer’s shells are heavier and more powerful. Thanks to its plunging fire it can easily destroy fortifications and entrenched infantry.
Spoiler
Rolls-Royce armoured car
The Rolls-Royce AC is armed with a single heavy machine gun in a turret. Its armour is impervious to small arms fire and it has decent off-road capacities compared to other wheeled vehicles. It is ideal for patrolling and raids thanks to its high road speed and manoeuvrability.
Spoiler
Models by Rataconfusca
Textures: Rolls-Royce by Chopin, the rest by don_Durandal
Special thanks to Darkbladecr for his animation resources and Aidas2 for contributing with the Whippet model.
We are still in need of skilled modders to join our team, be they mapmakers, modellers, 2D artists, etc… You can send a PM to the team members or post on the Inside1918 forum if you are interested.

Great update guys. Everything looks so damn amazing. And nice to see that you haven't forgotten me

Jorge, I'll re-join the coding/GUI team if you'll have me.
Fantastic update guys.
