Waxbutter 6 Posted November 30, 2012 (edited) Hell in the Pacific 0.5 beta release Finally after many years of development, we witness the first release of Hell in the Pacific, a mod that tries to cover the events that took place in Asia and the Pacific during the Second World War. We decided to give our first release the rather arbitrary version number 0.5. We felt the need to release the mod now for various reasons, but would like to point out that the mod is still in beta phase as there are many unfinished and missing things we have yet to implement. This first release is dedicated to land combat in the Pacific and the India/Burma theatres, mainly on the finished or at least almost finished maps 'Tarawa', 'Peleliu' and 'Kohima Ridge'. We will include other WIP islands as well, so you can see what we are working on. The same is true for many of the air and sea components of the mod. These things are still in beta stage of development, but will be included as some sort of sneak peek or preview. Feature List Below is a small feature list of what is included in HIP 0.5 beta: -Three factions complete with vehicles and aircraft -Three more or less finished islands along with some very WIP ones -Several Modules that add new features like Logistics, Artillery, Suppression, ... -A mission pack Requirements & Installation Hell in the Pacific requires: ArmA 2: Combined Operations (CO; this is ArmA 2 and the Add-on Operation Arrowhead combined into one game) with at least Patch 1.62 Community Base Addons (CBA) Installation: If you are installing the archive version of Hell in the Pacific: -Extract the archive and copy its contents (the mod folder) to your ArmA 2 main folder. -Get more information on how to use mod folders on Armaholic.
