Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

[Spawndemon]

There is a new update posted today over at the Forgotten Hope 2 mod website. Here's what they had to say:

We would like to kick off the update with the Supermarine Spitfire Mk. Vb in its tropical plumage. In total, 6,479 of the Mk V took to the skies during WWII. Considered to be one of the best fighters of the war, its armament consisted of four .303 machine guns and two 20mm Hispano cannons. The FH2 Spitfire was modeled by Rad, skinned by Toddel and coded by ctz.

The main attraction today are some interior views of the Daimler Dingo scoutcar. The Dingo was a speedy and rugged vehicle with four wheel drive and five gears in both forward and reverse. The rugged and dependable Dingo was so successful that it remained in service until 1952, and the design influenced scout cars developed during the war, in both Canada and Italy.

Last but not least it is time to unveil what our animator Killi Vanilli has been up to. This video shows the animations that bring the weapons created by McGibs, Rad, and Omni to life. Sounds for the No. 4 and K98 are provided by out betatesters FatJoe and Freggel from actual vintage weapons, with sound engineering by Bizness. Coding on the falling clipper strip was by ctz.

Re: Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

OMFG! The Spitfire! And the videos are insane. The Dingo looks like "the real thing". It really feels "in there"!...

Re: Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

Excellent work! The detail on the Dingo surpasses all other BF2 models I have seen. The reload animations are very nice and professional. The FH2 team is really paying attention to detail.

Best part:
No crosshairs!!!!!!! :)

Re: Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

THAtS what i am talking about some serious modelling and texturing..

Thank god some mods still makes TEXTURES....(For whom the bell tolls?)

Keep up GUYS!

Only thing i didn't like its the way the Kar returning from the sights position after a shot to the normal position. I find it a little too quick....

Re: Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

Everything coming from FH2 looks really really great! I am just worried how this is going to affect playability on my P4 3.4, 1024 RAM w. GF7800GTX (256) PC.. ?

Re: Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

you guys wouldn't happen to have uploaded full quality versions of those videos anywhere to download have you? its just that youtube absolutely butchers video quality and i know you guys were using some nice machine to show off those animations and youtube kinda ruined it. gametrailers.com, they stream a much higher quality video than youtube, best resolution and quality free video hosting ive ever seen, puts youtube to shame. i just want to see that animation video in all her glory, hehehe.


one more question, is the sound for the dingo engine in the video just a place holder? i found it eerily familiar....NJ 2046 from vanilla?
