Well, a lot of artillery fired in barrages and then stopped or were continuous. Would be nice if you could switch between the two or were able to say have 2 of the same, one you can Barrage with and the other is continuous.

its only actually changing 2 units atm, the pack howitzers have been continuous since they were put in, the grille was going to be continuous.. the 105 and the hummel are the only changes atm.

Mmm, the "barrage/single shot" idea sounds pretty good actually. Would be very intresting to see, can see that invisable arty shells is going to be a PAIN, specially since most arty will be out of the way with no chance of knowing what hit you
Salan, will you be on in about 5 hours? If so, would you be up for a game or two? I want to see the new Panzer Divison in action. And too pratice my Panzer Jager :3

it'll need testing im sure there will be something to fix so probably!

[MittinsKittens]

Awesome, might see you then dude
Wonder to see that Tiger Ace in the game. Really hope you put that smexy skin for that tank as it :p

[salan]

i am going to try to get the skin without the model, if you use teh model it doesn't have any shooting sounds, weirdly. i had it in easily just even spawning the vanilla one had no "shooting" sounds.. weird as its using the exact same gun as the normal tiger!

Going to work for 16 hours, any feedback would be appreciated on the official patch thread found here:
http://falloffrancemod.com/forum/index.php?topic=91.0

http://www.filefront.com/17263316/FOFHOTFIX009H.rar

this is a hotfix, you must have G installed for this to work, it has the directories included, just unzip into company of heroes as it has more then just the attrib file in it (local file and module).

this hotfix contains major game changes yet again to fall of france gameplay, and is a really SMALL DOWNLOAD

Me and Rifle just had an epic game on this Mod. Was loads of fun, and Frustrating.
This one unit sums it up

Want to see the replay for it?

oO Remind me to change the EBPS of that unit to say its real name..


I'll ask ya questions about it on the other forum ... But in response to how fall of france is running recently:

we played a 2 v 2 on rails and metal the other night, US ARMORED, BRITISH ARMORED vs PANZER DIVISION, PANZERJAGER DIVISION.

the game was on high resources, and ended in 23 minutes of absolute hectic destruction....!

one fight had all our super heavy tanks involved, A43 blackprince and a HVAP Super pershing vs a Jagdtiger and Tiger Ace...

only the pershing with support from a comet survived the battle.  epic push and counter push of destruction!

1 v 1.. play US Armored vs Panzer Division and your in for a running battle you will NOT FIND ANYWHERE else in coh!

[MittinsKittens]

Yeah, I just realised as I uploaded the screenshot xD
Will put it in the bug report forum for you.

[salan]

fixes for the CP bug in H can be found with this further tweaking Hotfix!

Alright, I here by declare the REWORK complete.  I worked hard in finishing it as fast as I could, well because I was absolutely addictively dedicated to getting it to the finished stage.

I am going to stop patches for a week at a time unless there are GAME BREAKING BUGS (these I have to fix, i can't NOT ... )

the next version of FOF will be version 1.0 and will be mostly an art upgrade, vet fix, pricing fix, cp cost fix.. balance tweaks on stats.
going to let the current version play out a bit though, we need good feedback now that I am basically done implimenting until 1.0 is done.  Then ... back to implimenting!

Canadian glider company (was a real regiment foo's)
US rangers
US Airborne
Russian Armor
British Commando's

Volksturm
Luftwaffe Glider division
Blitzkrieg tactics (those pesky kch)
Heer Infantry
Sturmtroopen

and a few more that aren't listed ... oo let the fun times roll, really need feed back on the current game play with the understanding that CP prices need adjusting, populations need to be balanced, unit costs, performance... everything is up for grabs, just critique constructively.


Thank you to those who have helped and been here playing it and testing it... good times ahead!

you should hop back on the eir coding wagon, with how fast you've done all that i'm sure eirrmod could use a hand and it would be for the best afterall

[Unkn0wn]

I'm sure we could use his help with some stuff :p

[Smokaz]

yeah come back salan put that energy to some use in eirr

[MittinsKittens]

Until everyone whines at him because hes "breaking" EiR. I rather have him stick to FoF, specially since its shaping up to be an awesome mod. Can't wait until it gets a player base

[MittinsKittens]

Looking for a game, Hit me up on Vent if you would want to play against me

i'd rather him break some stuff and bring in new ideas, than the launcher have 6 players in it due to lack of progress because there is only 1 person working on it

[salan]

woah don't get me in trouble with the powers that be guys..

I'd be more then willing to offer some RGD help if they need it, but in all seriousness they have the coders they need if they want to do the work, and as mittins kinda says, I'd rather break my own creation then someone elses when it comes to being responsible for taking the flak.   I've been a bit crazy with my patching of this thing, but that's because I wanted to find and fix as much as I could per small increment rather then have large things to try and .. unbreak.  Man If I had had 1 patch for this whole process I couldn't imagine the bugs and unplayability of it.  small quick patches are annoying for downloads, but it was so much easier to fix and maintain a playable gamebase then it would have been otherwise.



Also as mittins says.. the mod has shaped up extremely well.  Its a new. Its different. It's very unique, and its hella fun when you are willing to just take it as such.
