theavonlady 2 Posted April 28, 2003 Now, that I44 has put together a standard zip file, letting me manually install everything, I've taken the plunge. This is much more exciting than when the mini-demo came out. Some comments: 1. Need an American flag with 48 stars. In fact, someone should produce a WWII Allies/Axis flag pack. 2. The polish on those boots blinds me. Could use a little scruffing up. 3. I noticed as I came near several other living AIs on my team that the action menu would pop up and I could take grenades from them. Ha! Try that in real life! Those halftracks and tanks are such a big improvement over whatever WWII vehicles had been tentatively available until now. I am genuinely impressed. Looking forward to a campaign and hopefully, a few islands. Thank you, I44. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ReaperY2K 0 Posted April 28, 2003 Thanx for the demo invasion44 team  Only several small critisicms i have (plz dont flame me for this!! 1) Being in a DoD clan i feel that with permission those weapon sounds would have been better (the bass on the BAR and the thud of the grease gun) 2) While holding the Thompson in first person mode, go to freelook and look at the rear sights on the model.....they r V shaped yet when you go to iron sight view the sight is round with a triangle. 3)The US troops are meant to be paras so the M1 Carbine should have folding metallic stock (think its the M1A1 Carbine) not the wooden one. 4) Muzzle flash is still visible on the springfield. still a gr8 job though  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanadianTerror 0 Posted April 28, 2003 It's been brought up before but I'm still not understanding why the Tiger and some of the other units are in desert cammo!? The tank is great but if this is supposed to be "realistic"....was there a reason for the sandy look? If there's a DAK campaign, its a step in the right direction though.

HotShot 0 Posted April 28, 2003 Not sure if anyone has said this before (i'm not gonna read 15 pages of posts), but where are all the missions? I was told their was gonna be 1 SP and 2 MP missions, but i cant find any in the folder On the whole, great work, and is their any kind of approximate date for the full Mod, and will their be any upgrades made to the demo? Also where can i find the script needed to use the Trip-pod and MG together? Great work. HotShot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gollum1 0 Posted April 28, 2003 This is certainly the best WW2 mod yet and I salute the I44 team for that. That being said, I´ve found a boatload of bugs and stuff: 1. LOD textures for U.S soldiers: Am I the only one having this problem? The second LOD looks like they´re partially wrapped in blue/white paper and they stick out VERY VERY well. They aren´t completely white as if they were missing their textures, some parts are brown and some are a mix of white and blue. I think this is due to the textures being too big, i.e the textures occupy space that should actuallty be empty. You can see this on some low-quality weapon mods for OFP, and also in Mailman´s Russian weapons pack. I don´t have the vis quality and framerate settings on max, but if I do they still turn into snowmen a good distance away, otherwise they turn white about 10-20 meters away. And this is only for U.S soldiers, not Germans. 2. Muzzle flashes: Not sure about this, but why do for example Grease guns, Thompsons and MP40s have star-shaped muzzle flashes? Their barrels are round and solid at the ends, so shouldn´t they have round muzzle flashes? I know the M16 has a star-shaped muzzle flash because the end of the barrel has small "exhaust-ports" (someone please tell me what these are called) to the sides. 3. Thompson LOD texture: The second LOD for the Thompson makes the wooden parts look a lot more orange than it is. Same goes for the MG42, but in that case it looks very blocky. 4. Sounds: The .30 cal sounds a bit muffled, the Thompson and MP40 sound a bit unnatural  and the Kar sounded a lot better in the demo, now it sounds a lot weaker and poorly recorded. The .50 cal sounds a bit weak and quiet, too. Also, some reload sounds, like the Kar one, have some hissing static noise in the background. The MG42 and most of the other weapons have kickass sounds, though! 5. No Pak36? 6. The Tiger: Why is it in desert camo? And the inside of the tank looks as clean and lighted as some Star Trek spaceship! The textures on the Tiger really sticks out like a sore thumb, even in desert maps. Those textures need some work, methinks. 7. The Springfield: Why is it so shiny? I doubt that it could be kept that clean in combat without constant waxing and polishing. Also, why is the glass on the sight red-tinted? When you look through it it´s just normal glass. 8. Medics: They start with a "rifle" but aren´t holding anything in their hands. IMO a very major bug. 9. Ranks: Some of the Platoon commanders etc. in groups have rank "private" and  skill 0. 10. Nonfunctional (?) tripod. 11. Grenades. Why don´t you remodel your hand grenades? I know of at least one crappy old WW2 mod that had real stielhandgranate. The grenades that U.S troops have on their uniforms aren´t the ones they use! 12. Editor: I would REALLY like it if the units were under I44-units in the editor. It takes a HELL of a long time to scroll in my East men list to get to the wehrmacht and fallschirmjaegers. 13. Blood: Some faces can´t get bloodied. Also, why do blood textures look more orange/brown than red? The Fallschirmjaegers´ blood textures look ridiculous, like someone sprinkled them with orange powder! 14. Iron sights: At least the iron sights on the MP40 and STG44 have given me problems on one occasion each. Once, when I switched to the MP40´s sights, the pin in the middle of the sights was replaced by a black box that obscured only the middle part of the sights, but it was gone in a second. Another time, the sights on the STG44 nearly crashed OFP. The same thing happened, only this time the box kept flashing back and forth, causing an fps "hickup" every time it changed from pin to box. 15. Jeep muzzle flash: If you turn the .50 cal on the jeep around 360 degrees while firing, you´ll note that the muzzle flash turns blue when it´s pointed backwards and to the right. Also, it seems to turn blue in 3rd person view. 16. Faces: Is there any way to make a customized random face selection for the troops instead of the default East/West faces? The U.S forces should really be rid of the african-american face and the guy with the goatee. The East units have that low-res-sneaky-rat-type face that I HATE, and not enough Aryan-looking guys. 17. Scripts: There are a lot of nice scripts that could be implemented, like one for random tank numbers, burning and tank shock dust, but you say you won´t implement them because of 1.46 users? Doesn´t the "lower windshield" option on the jeep require 1.85? Also, why not release a 1.46 version and a 1.91 version separately? And what´s the point of making the demo compatible with both OFP and OFPR when the final version will be Res only? That´s just torture for 1.46 users! 18. No pistols?: Haven´t you posted pics of the Colt and P38 on the site months and months ago? Phew, I can´t think of anything else right now. Understand that overall, I think this is a great mod, I wouldn´t want anyone to think I´m whining. I know that I can come across crude at times, but I really really like this mod and appreciate all the work that you´ve put into it. I only want to make it better! Kudos to I44. Edit: added some stuff. This must be my sixth edit! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
