[CuteQA 0]

i can't run their mission, and it caused my ofp crash ( i think the ammo apc is the problem)

anyone got same problem?    

[lee_h._oswald 0]

Nice one.

To choose Resistance as Side is perfect!

Textures differs from "very good"(tanks) over "ok"(helis) to "not so good"(jeep/truck).

Some sounds are good, others bad. Try yourself.

Soldiers are quite ok(funny camo ).

Not a "must have" but something different to play with(or against)

[edit]:

M1A1 + M2A2 + M113(all AI)

vs.

Typ90 + Typ89 + Typ96MG(all AI)

=

Typ96MG is history.

M1A1, M2A2, M113 are history.

-----

Typ89 is firing his rockets from a very far distance and gets the most kills.

Very heavy to fight against!

Lee, do u have any problem running the campaign or single mission??

[lee_h._oswald 0]

Not tested yet.

I first take a very close look on the vehicles.

Btw, Typ89 takes 2LAW or 2Sabot(fromM60) befor it blows up.

Now someone must make a M2A2 and a BMP that can take also 2 Shots from LAW/RPG.

They realesed on their site a patch for the demo apparently for the campaign..Boy this Japs work fast..I am still downloading so I will have to wait a little longer for first opinions...

Hi, I'm one of the BOH members (translation, terrain and music)

We will appreciate constructive critisms and feedbacks as we are trying to polish this MOD to the best of our potential.

As of now, I've heard that if you have TOW's M249 installed, the addon names will conflict, which will be fixed ASAP, so the leader of the project suggests not to make a SP mission for this release of BOH.

We also see a few buggy parts and minor problems which definately will be fixed (ex. Vulnerability of Type89, some things that are "not so good" etc)

For those who have problems running the mission, the mission patch is released as quicKsanD has pointed out.

Hope you'll enjoy the beta release!

[lee_h._oswald 0]

Hi Yamato!

A big thank you goes to the BOH Team.

Very nice first beta.

Quality of tanks and apc´s is great!

The OH1 Ninja needs texture improvements for the cockpit, and does it carry really only 4 stinger missiles? No MG?

First of all: Congratulations to the team, fantastic add-ons. Also a wise desicion to put the units under Resistance, very good.

I do have some comments though:

1) The Readme is totally wide, maybe pressing ENTER a few times would help

2) Most of the communications is done by the TITLETEXT, thats OK, if there are some sounds with them, now I know this is an early DEMO. I'd really like Japanese voices with english subtiteling.

3) Talking about the subtitling, there are quite a few spelling/grammar mistakes, I'd suggest to make someone very familiar with the english language check them for these mistakes to make this MOD totally awesome.

I'm off now, gotta complete those missions  

- Sander

PS. I was just playing the third single mission, and I must say. WOW! The intro was very good, nice music I'll give my comments on the mission ASAP.

[9mm 0]

Well Done! I see a lot of potential in this mod! Most of the units are of great quality (especially the armour pack).

I was just playing with the units in the editor, but i got some comments and suggestions.

'73 jeep looks llike it needs ittle more work to fit well with the rest of the units.

I guess some modeling into soldiers would be nice. The good thing do do would be remodeling helmets to aquire more of a PASGT line.

Implementing Asian faces via units' cpp.

Putting the same soldiers (i prefer modern ones) into all vehicles in the pack.

Maybe some internal insertion/extraction helo scripts, as proven by BAS MH47E, very usefull in SP.

Anyway great work! Nom i'll play few BOH missions.

I like this heli

ps: just my opnion, the oh-1 and ah-64s engine sound is a little bit annoying me

[theavonlady 2]

A most enjoyable mod. I put up a nice review page on The FAQ's MOM section. Also mirroring the files from there should anyone want to download.

[Guest]

Yep...this is some excellent work It's always great to be reminded of just how worldwide OFP is

[hellfish6 7]

I am very happy with this mod! The single missions are great! I did have a problem with the campaign, though, as I relieved 1st Platoon and killed all the Russians, but the mission didn't end. And strangely enough, the Japanese and Russian troops were moving right past each other on the base, and nobody was shooting at anyone else.

But, as everyone else has mentioned - the whole effort is outstanding. I love the Type 98M/G - they're my new favorite vehicles to play with.

Thanks for all your work, guys. I can't wait for the full mod.

Same problem for me. Crash with the two missions pack (original and update) with no error message.

[TopCover 0]

Same here.

[theavonlady 2]

Those of you crashing:

1. Does file Flashpoint.rpt have a report of the crash that hints to the cause?

2. Did you install the addons in \OFP\Addons, \OFP\RES\AddOns or in a -mod AddOns subdirectory? I used a -mod subdirectory and had no problems.

[miles teg 1]

Same here Al. I used a MOD subdirectory (I finally got that working) and no problems at all. I really love this mod. My only gripe is the Automatic grenade launcher on the wheeled APC (I forget Type) looks just like a .50 cal with the barrel cut off. In fact the ammo can on it says .50 cal on it. I hope this is replaced with one of the many good MK-19 models floating around. There was a very good MK-19 made by the Taiwan Workshop as well as another one made by GFX707 awhile back. I'm sure they'd probably let you mount these on your vehicles.

Oh...one more gripe... please stick a automatic cannon of some type on that OH-1!!! I love that helicopter but you can't do much dammage with it with only 4 stingers.

I'm sticking all my North Korean addons in this mod folder so I can get some really kewl fictional Japan vs. North Korea missions.
