For those of you wanting to go and play MP with these right now, sorry.. but you gotta wait an hour or two. I'm still uploading them to the server. The patch is up, but the server isn't.

feersum, what files should I have in my fdf addon folder - I don't have any sound, and i converted the names to lowercase so i could use them on my linux server, and may have made a mistake in between.

Great job! smile_o.gif

I love the new island, mig21 and tons of other goodies.

Just few questions,

Whats the difference between T54 and T55M? Other than weaponry and armour? are there any special scripts for T55M?

Also, is there any readme which would list all the scripts and stuff?

In FDFmod thread you mentioned about sanla artillery script, how can I use it in my missions?

I'm sorry about this, but we bit screwed up the FAQ and there is no notice about SANLA.

But you can use it by inserting artillery object in mission editor. It can be found from "EMPTY -> OBJECTS (Finnish Defence Forces)"

Mortar squad, medium artillery and heavy artillery. After you've placed one of these objects to map, you can order fire by using finnish radist that has LV 217 "Venttiseiska"

Shame that I am at work now...

I would be happy If someone could post some more information or maybe even screenies!

-Are there new changes to the config?

-I remember that the FDFmod refused cooperation with the GMR_exploMOD because they made their own explosions? Are there new explosions in the update now?

-Are there new standart animations?

I´m just curious...

Even if its just fixing the bugs and some new units I will be happy with it. Best MOD so far... (only the GMR mod makes me not use it sometimes)

Yes, ofcourse there are tweaks to config.

Yes, there are "new" explosions.

Umm yes, there are two new gunner stances  biggrin_o.gif

And there's FDF textured version of RHS T-55! unclesam.gif

Don't forget "finnish-look-a-like" island in both summer and winter versions!
