BattleGroup-Frontlines Mod Update

[Spawndemon]

There is a new update posted today over at the BattleGroup-Frontlines mod website. Here's what they had to say:

Hello and welcome to another Battlegroup - Frontlines news update. Today we have two German weapons to show off. It is the Mauser K98 Rifle and the Walther P38. One of our main features are the 3D ironsights that can be seen on both the P38 and K98 and will be present on all of our weapons.

This pistol was designed from the beginning as a military weapon, suitable for mass production to replace the P08. The first designs used an internal hammer. This was refused by the Army as soldiers viewed the hammer as a visible sign of the readiness of the pistol. It was promptly changed and was adopted into the Wehrmacht in 1938. It was a robust weapon and performed particularly well on the Russian front, where the extreme cold put many other weapons out of action. Read more...

Re: BattleGroup-Frontlines Mod Update

Great work as usual guy! And I agree, we don't need people comparing mods. Each mod is unique.

We desperately need some WW2 action!!!!!!!

Re: BattleGroup-Frontlines Mod Update

Can't wait for this mod or FH2. I've tried going back to play BF1942 once in a while but it just isn't the same.....sigh...so we'll just keep on waiting.

Great work BTW!!

Re: BattleGroup-Frontlines Mod Update

Yes, I can't wait till a WWII mod is released!! I just hope they add SP support too because no one seems to play the mods MP like they deserved to be played.

Re: BattleGroup-Frontlines Mod Update

Great job, and I agree, we're all dieing for some BF2 mod WWII action!! Can't wait, keep it up guys.

Re: BattleGroup-Frontlines Mod Update

sorry about the lighting on the K98. the wood isn't quite that orange, I accidentally took those screens on the wrong map, and the light settings weren't completed

I have a strict policy about touching up photos, especially ingame photos, so I didn't edit the wood color to make it look any better.

Thanks for the comments, rest assured we are testing as hard as we can to release a bug-free mod to you guys :)

Have you tried playing FH 0.7... ppl still play it

Back on topic, nice to see BGF coming along, there are never too many quality WWII mods, especially since the early focus is on different theaters with different mods. I'm sure there will be enough players for SP support to be indifferent...

Re: BattleGroup-Frontlines Mod Update

That looks good, first time i've seen 3d ironsights for a weapon other than a pistol. (They're usually those 2d blurred images)

Reminds me of CoD's style of ironsights. Hopefully you'll bring a smoother animation from going from hip to ironsights, PR is trying to do it. Right now it's like you can go into ironsights instantly.
