CoH - Modern Combat! "Patch 1.014" (April 17th 2013)

[DC53]

Ok, thanks for the quick reply!

[paradamed]

Ok, some 2v 2 maps would be great too. Im really enjoying the mod. I have played countless battles as USA. I will try some with China today.

[Beefy^]

@DB, do me a favour & give your web host a strong kick to the groin so I can get the patch with the Bradley fix (and a possible striker fix so it isn't immensely vulnerable to mortars ^^), still loving it, from what I've played there are no major bugs, just balancing issues which I'm sure that you guys will work on, thanks again for the eventual release. (I hate AT Guns )

[Squab66]

brilliant but i think that the us don't really have much in Armour variety in comparison to the Chinese also the Bradley m2 at least(i think is the one in the mod) has a six man carry capacity just something to put in tho the sryker fill this role

[escforreality]

Absolutely fantastic work! Incredibly polished for an initial release, to tell you the truth I thought this mod was a pipe dream, but god damn did you prove me wrong. Very impressive work.

[Niftyeye]

Just wanted to say fantastic job, the mod is everything I hoped for and people in my clan are starting to play it.

My only nitpick is TOW missiles and rpgs, they seem to be too accurate against infantry, to the point where 4 out of 5 missiles will one shot a soldier, is this intentional?

Thats me nitpicking, its nothing major

[Darkbladecr]

My only nitpick is TOW missiles and rpgs, they seem to be too accurate against infantry, to the point where 4 out of 5 missiles will one shot a soldier, is this intentional?

No it is not, we have already adjusted the RPG and Javelin accuracy towards infantry.
The TOW tent, has almost no accuracy to infantry, are you sure that is what caused the infantry kills?

[Niftyeye]

For me, the main thing doing the infantry killing was the PLA RPG squad, the PLA tow missile (the unit you unlock on 'The Future is Now Tree).

Iv only encountered american tows a couple of times, every other missile seems to land a hit and one shot a soldier.

[[]inveigle[]]

I can confirm this happening to me as well.

[Monkey Soldier]

You mean the PF-98? The directional anti tank launcher which sits on a tripod?

[Sgt Doom]

Loving this mod so far, only nitpick i've come across is the camera zoom makes me feel like i've got my face in the dirt and is rather dizzying to keep track of action along an extended front. Any possibility of allowing it to zoom out further?

[robotnik]

I can also confirm the Bradley tow missile bug, it has trouble firing when the target is moving or on an elevated surface, and if the target moves out of range or screws around the Bradley just sits there doing nothing for about 15 sexonda

Also the apaches chain gun does not fire if tanks are around, and doesn't seem to do much against infantry

[[]inveigle[]]

Any possibility of allowing it to zoom out further?

Yes please.

[Niftyeye]

@MonkeySoldier: Yes, that unit.

[Monkey Soldier]

@Niftyeye, we'll take a look at the stats, to see how it compares against inf.

@Doom & Inveigle, problem with increased zoom out is that it creates lag, with little benefit. We try to keep lag to a minimum, so people with low-end pc's can play as well. It would be nice for those people, to play the mod with relatively seen normal graphics and normal zoom out, than to cut even further on visual quality just for that little bit of extra zoom.

[Darkbladecr]

@Niftyeye, we'll take a look at the stats, to see how it compares against inf.

Fixed, although really not a major difference, must have been just unlucky

@Doom & Inveigle, problem with increased zoom out is that it creates lag, with little benefit.

Our LOD settings are setup for the game to work with the zoom settings of the normal CoH camera. It was gets the game to run relatively well for all PC specs (that support CoH obviously). However you will notice sometimes tanks disappearing, weapons disapearing if we increased the camera settings to something like double the range. You can always manually edit the camera settings yourself if you really want. Look it up here, there are several tutorials I am sure.

[[]inveigle[]]

problem with increased zoom out is that it creates lag, with little benefit.

You are correct. I created a camera.lua and put it in the mod folder. The lag was horrible. IMHO, it is best where it is. Thank you.

[robotnik]

Any news on when the site will be back up again?

[LeoPhone]

A camera zoom mod even creates lag if you don't zoom out any further than normal? just have it installed but not using it is what I mean.

[Beefy^]

Hi guys, I noticed that the PLA APC with the Repair Vehicle upgrade has a secondary hull still pointing at the vehicle it is doing the repair animation, I was wondering if it was accidental or necessary.

I also noticed that the wreck for the ZTZ-99's wreck apppears to stay on the battlefield the whole game even after its destroyed, again not sure if intentional.

[Darkbladecr]

PLA APC with the Repair Vehicle upgrade has a secondary hull still pointing at the vehicle it is doing the repair animation

You mean the vehicle rotates while doing the repair? or something else?

I also noticed that the wreck for the ZTZ-99's wreck apppears to stay on the battlefield the whole game even after its destroyed, again not sure if intentional

so its pathing block is gone, and units can move through the wreck? That is not intentional

[Beefy^]

so its pathing block is gone, and units can move through the wreck? That is not intentional

Path blocking is gone & units can go through the wreck but the visual wreck will remain there for the rest of the game.

You mean the vehicle rotates while doing the repair? or something else?

I will play a game & take a screen shot now to show you.

Edit: Never mind, the recovery truck thing didn't happen just then, it must have just been my system having a fit in a 4vs4

[Monkey Soldier]

A camera zoom mod even creates lag if you don't zoom out any further than normal? just have it installed but not using it is what I mean.

I tried that myself as well, but it's really annoying to constantly monitor you're not zooming out too much (especially during 1v1), lag again and scroll back. Kind of like a rollercoaster, besides as DB pointed out, it will mean that most vehicles and weapons will disappear because the LOD's are not meant for such distances. We will keep it as it is, as it's really not worth it for those few people who's pc can afford it.

[bangalor44]

Hey guy's the map 4p shaohui was'nt showing up.I had to change the module file the last archive was two 13's made the last one 14.work's now

[Darkbladecr]

Yes I noticied that too, it is fixed now

[Niftyeye]

Website and forums are back up

[OnkelSam]

Our website is back online!

I highly recommand to all of you to participate in the balance discussion and bug reporting on our forums! It is by far the easiest and most efficient for us to collect information in a structured environment like over there!

Read the official release news on moderncombat.blacksandstudio.com!

Ladies and Gentlemen, we aaaaaare liiiiiive!!

CoH: Modern Combat is finally available to the public!

But first of all, let us apologize. The overwhelming interest in our mod and consequently the refreshing of our website moderncombat.blacksandstudio.com while we were still working on the release lead our server host to the impression that he was the target of a DOS attack! It took us a few days, but now we're back online!

Unfortunately, among other reasons this didn't allow us to use the easy installer we had prepared for you, because it requires access to our server to ask for patches. To avoid a further delay we had decided to release a self-extracting archieve as an alternative solution. A detailed installtion guide is available on our website. Should you still run into trouble despite following the tutorial, please visit our technical support forum and notify us of any issues you've encountered. You can download CoH: Modern Combat using one of the following links

We are extremely impressed about the community support of our Mod! Almost 35000 downloads in less than a week is more than we could have hoped for!

We recommend that you also have a look through the mod section of our website. There you'll find answers to frequently asked questions, as well as detailed information on U.S. and Chinese tech trees, doctrines, units, abilities, and more.

With any luck you'll find plenty of other people online, and we encourage you to play with or against other human players. To make it easier to find and identify people who play the mod, we suggest that you frequent the "Gamereplays.org" chat channel and create a user account name that begins with an "MC" prefix (e.g., "MCOnkelSam").

So... we hope that you all have fun with CoH: Modern Combat, and help us to make further improvements by visiting our forums and providing balance suggestions and bug reports, or just discussing strategies and posting replays. Please pay attention to the pinned threads at the top of each section! And remember to keep an eye out for further announcements at moderncombat.blacksandstudio.com!

Good luck, have fun!

~The CoH: Modern Combat team.

[Darkbladecr]

I had trouble with the extracting. this error comes up on the extractor.

"CRC failed in ModernCombat\Archives\NewModernCombatSoundHigh.sga

Must be due to corrupted download, try to redownload or try the torrent download

[The Omega Pyro]

Thanks for fast reply. i'll try that.

[Instago]

I can't get Modern Combat to load, either from the launcher or a modified CoH shortcut. I have the steam version of CoH & OF fully patched. Also, I have the folder "ModernCombat" in the CoH root directory. My shortcut looks like this "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\company of heroes\RelicCOH.exe" -dev -nomovies -mod ModernCombat. Here's my Warnings.log:

How can I obtain the tusk version of the abrams? I only have the regular version in my tech tree.

[Zupadupadude]

The CQC doctrine has the M1A2 TUSK.

[paradamed]

Thanks for answering!

[Squab66]

any ideas for the campaign so far? and also perhaps modern combat versions of the operations

[Niftyeye]

How about a mission where you have to escort an Abrams tank through Chinese Infested areas?

Similar to the mission 'Warpig' on the first Modern Warfare.

[Instago]

Hey again, I got Modern Combat to launch. I had to reinstall CoH and OF for it to work.

[Squab66]

well for one mission i was thinking of a small outpost which is right in the path of the enemy advance you must hold the line for however long but you have a very small pop cap but a good position with only three lanes of attack and only tanks can only get though one lane and airborne will drop behind your lines and raid your base?

[OnkelSam]

Hello CoH: Modern Combat fans,
It's time for our first wave of bugfixes. Thanks to all of your contributions on our forums, we were able to identify many of the bugs that made it into the release version.

The balance discussion is lively in our feedback section as well. We encourage you all to take part in it and help to improve our mod, so that it can become as balanced as possible. With this patch, we have mainly concentrated on bugfixing. Any further balance issues should be clearer than before and we hope to effectively resolve them with our next patches in the coming days and weeks.

People who use our launcher will be automatically notified about the update. People who have had problems with our launcher (resulting in them needing to create a custom shortcut) should download and apply the patch manually using this link.

Find the changelog of patch 1.001 attached at the bottom and watch out for further announcements on moderncombat.blacksandstudio.com

[BazzBrother]

If you want some ideas on good American/Chinese missions, look to Battlefield 2 Modern Combat


You might not get too much out of it, but maybe a couple of missions from the game sound like a good starting point. From a Chinese para drop to destroy American submarines, to an American defense of a strategic town.

The primary thing you should focus on rather than missions though is "whats the story". Not so much a character story, but what are either forces trying to accomplish in the long run (Americans want to reach a major city to take, Chinese forces need to defend said important city for example). From there, you will have an easier time coming up with ideas of what kind of terrain will they have to traverse, and what kind of opposition and threats they will find on the road to said final objective.

Also, taking the game itself into account, start off the campaigns with a small focus, giving the player small units and weapons to accomplish things against a relatively light enemy, and then progress to use more complex and wide scoped game play of having to produce and use hvy tanks and loads of powers to grind on a relentless enemy.

[Niftyeye]

Thanks for this patch, a lot of fixes in there that I didn't even notice, now downloading

[balosc]

Fatal Scar Error when skirmish starts post patch...so how do you uninstall Modern Combat?

It was working great until I applied the patch - now I get the fatal scar error as soon as the game starts and I go to move my engineers.
I'd like to uninstall and then re-install from the mod from scratch to see if I got a corrupt update.
I can't find an uninstall prog in the add/delete program folder, CoH folder, or the modern combat folder.

It is a great mod and I look forward to it working again.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Update / Edit....

Jagdpanther - thanks for the info.

I tried re-installing but no success.
However, I went through all the issues at blacksandstudio web site.
In delving through the issues there, it turns out that the reason it "stopped" working was because following the update I did not run the Modern Combat launcher as an administrator (which I must have done initially).

I reset the launcher to run as administrator and all is well again. (right click the shortcut - properties - compatibility - tick the box...)
It is kind of weird as I'm set up as the admin, but there you go...

great mod - thanks for all the work you all put into it.

B...

[Jagdpanther]

There is no uninstall program, because there also was no install program involved, it's only an selfextracting archive.

Simple uninstalling process:
- go to the gamefolder and remove the folder "ModernCombat" and the module files starting with "ModernCombat". That's all. Then you can again "install" the mod from scratch.

[rev_draconis]

Just want to say that I am really enjoying this Gr8 mod guys. Can't wait to see what you have in-store for future progress.

Between yours and the Cauldron of War (Little Wars), by Mr&Mrs Smith, I am a happy camper, lol.

Now for the the Zombie Mod to get completed and all will be good in the world.

Keep up the good work.

[OnkelSam]

Hey folks, we're back with the newest patch for CoH: Modern Combat!

While we generally concentrated on bug-fixes with the last one, this time around we've decided to focus on balance-related changes as well. We want to thank the community for all the informative feedback and discussion on our forums... your input has influenced many of these changes (read the complete changelog at the end of this post).

We've also done some work on the aesthetics and acoustics of the mod, much of it made possible by several new members of our team: evilSpike (2D artist), omnicron (2D artist), robotnik (3D artist), skylineGTR (2D/3D artist) and Sando (level designer). Their help is greatly appreciated, and they've already made some fantastic contributions!
Thanks to them and veteran team-members Darkbladecr, Chopin and SuiXo, we were able to add a ton of new custom gear to our infantry models, add unit portraits to our user interface and create additional environmental assets for use by our mappers.

And they aren't the only ones that deserve credit! Others have selflessly dedicated their time to improving the mod in various ways, even though they aren't members of staff. We want to acknowledge their contributions here:

DMz and Beefy^: created the new M3 Carl Gustav/MAAWS for our revised Airborne squad. They've also optimised several existing textures in order to improve their appearance and impact on performance.

Aidas2: created the new M14 EBR rifle model for the Airborne squad and our new Humvee model (originally for CoH: Zombie Mod). Its new texture was created by our very own 2D artist Chopin.

We've also taken the opportunity to replace a number of generic sounds with those from the excellent CoH soundpack made by RazorR, and Loran Korn (RIP).

The Modern Combat launcher should automatically notify you about the patch and download it for you the next time you start it. If you run into problems with the automatic update, you may download and apply it manually, using this link.

The soundpack by RazorR is available as a separate (optional) download here. Just save the ImpactSounds.sga into your "...\Company of Heroes\ModernCombat\Archives" directory and it will load them instead of the default ones.

~The CoH: Modern Combat team


Note: As of now (april 18th, 9pm GMT) the RelicOnline server is offline. Any connection problems you may experience are not related to our patch release!

[ChickenNuggets]

Amazing update you guys!

[Niftyeye]

Love it, playing as the US seems a lot more balanced now, I love the fact that US Infantry can passively heal in the field (fairly expensive though), really gives them staying power, especially on the defensive against hordes of chinese.

[sirpsychoj]

Hey guys, just got back from a long work stint in the outback. Gotta say I was excited to see the mod has finally been released whilst I was away. But moreso, after a fair few games last night I played, the whole game experience was incredibly enjoyable, the whole package has been implemented with perfection, it really plays like an add on and not a mod. One map in particular ( forget the name- but is a 1v1 valley map) the map layout and design along with your new assests was purely a joy to see, it really felt like i was playing abroad and not ww2. Great job for all those involved. btw, I'll clear out my inbox as I'm only back for a week and have to go back again for a few more weeks, so if I'm needed for any reason, this week will be your best bet to catch me. This is only a temp contract for me, but unfortunately takes me away from home at lengthy periods

If you listen closely at 0.02 sec you can hear the Davey Jone saying "What A nice penis".

I hardly played this new mod as soon as it was released because it's frustrating to see that you rarely have the M1 Abrams at your side when the PLA often has the most tanks in the game! In a real war, the M1 Abrams is not a rare sight.
