pzvg 0 Posted February 14, 2003 Note, you would have the make the Maxim into a vehicle class with probably an adapted bicycle rider animation to work, otherwise the pinheads would pick it up and hold it like an AK (I once defined the IG33 I'm working on as a weapon just for grins, man talk about your Aryan supersoldiers) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Royal_Blackwatch 0 Posted February 14, 2003 Well, here´s my solution (a bit faster than expected) I´ve cut this together to the vital parts and (tried) to translate into english. The location this had happened is the village MELK in Austria (near LINZ) quotation "... And now it happened, the tanks with the red and white stars fought intense against each other. The Russians did not want to be the second here in MELK, like in AMSTETTEN, and did not want to loose the informations to the americans. Informations available to me, the russians won the battle and the americans withdrew, not without clarifying the "misunderstanding". ..." quotation end My Source: "Hitlers Siegeswaffen" by F. Georg page 117 As his source the author states an eyewitness Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pzvg 0 Posted February 14, 2003 Hmm, interesting Could youpost the ISBN of that book? I'd like to read it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Royal_Blackwatch 0 Posted February 15, 2003 Of course. Here we go: 3-935095-02-3 BTW It´s a bit difficult to get. @ Stoppelhopser To return to the topic Nice Addons of course. I´m sure I´ll download the russian addon. I´d like to see both MG´s How about the Maxim as a static weapon (like the M2)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stoppelhopser 0 Posted February 15, 2003 nice u like it well i gotta see about the mg´s. time is short and i want to get the units done first. i am doin a nagant that is almost finished, and i will add more weapons... actually i wanna try make a mchine gun crew for the watercooled mg with custom anims so they pull and push it and set it up before firing. but time sets the limit here....

CanadianTerror 0 Posted February 15, 2003 What about getting a couple of extra addon makers to help out for things such as extra russian weapons like the maxim? Even just getting the model from someone would help out timewise. just a thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desantnik 0 Posted February 16, 2003 Since time is short you could release it in patches. I would very much like the machine gun crew and it would be one of my favorite units in the game. But focus on the Russian units first and then afterwards, there might be patches just like your landsers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Secondly the model flash bug Thirdly, it was a p3d edit. It could have standed a lot of improvement. Bump, I wanna keep this thread afloat... since it is 5 days till StoppelHopsers Russians are released. edit: Just wondering if there were any news....

By the way, how can you get the Invasion 1944 units? They're not out are they? :/ Also excuse my ignorence but what are landsers and where can I get them? I just tried the MOH weapons, they're awesome! but what's wrong with the machine guns?? :o I type it all in and when I enter the preview the bloke has no weapons D: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desantnik 0 Posted February 19, 2003 Sorry I must have not been clear enough...:D I use those weapons like the thompson and springfield rifle with I44 demo units. I just use the removeallweapons this, and then the addweapon/magazine commands to put in new weapons. The Landsers, created by Stoppelhopser are German infantry, his are high quality and the weapons and textures are kick ass. You can get them here Stoppels unofficial addons just head over to his download page... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desantnik 0 Posted February 19, 2003 Here is a treat from Stoppel, an update on his Russian soldiers For those of you that dont know, here are his high quality Russian troops 4 more days! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianTerror 0 Posted February 20, 2003 Looking good! Would we be able to get some info on what soldiers/weapons will be released. Also, any other variations in uniform(white perhaps?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desantnik 0 Posted February 20, 2003 I dont know that yet but remember, this is beta release so dont expect everything there. </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">Also, any other variations in uniform(white perhaps?) <span id='postcolor'> what what do you mean?

desantnik 0 Posted February 20, 2003 Oh! Sorry my mistake, it didnt click in my brain as to what your talking about. Again my mistake but maybe you should have said snow camo. Anyways, I dont know yet as, this is only a beta version and there are not many snow addons for WW2 soldiers out there. Besides, Stoppel has not give his landsers a snow uniform so therefore I dont think he will give the Russians snow uniforms Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
