It uses FDFMod weapons, objects et cetera, so you do need FDF Mod.

Ok, thx for this really fast reply, feersum.endjinn

[bonko the sane 2]

Thank you very much once again, excellent work as usual

[TeRp 1]

Excellent work. Thank you guys.

WHOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!!

Awesome!! I love the desert island and the FDF desert units.

Awesome work. I too wasn't expecting these untill fdf 1.4. Very nice release. I already loved the desert units in the FDF 1.3 release (even though there were only two).

Keep up the great work!

btw;

Are those buildings self-made? I haven't seen those "arabic" buildings before, but I could be wrong. They look very nice.

Really nice work guys, thanks, but i think ive found two small bugs, here u can see one of them

If u cant see the image here u have the link

Shadow bugs

As u can see, the shadow doesnt appear if u are on roads. I also noticed that if u place one vehicle on roads the wheels looks like "inside" of the road, like some kind of clipping.

PD: Sorry for my baaaad english

[Tomislav 0]

at least the fins are controlling the desert now.

They're not bugs, they are "OFP features". OFP does not render shadows on regular objects, which road blocks are. Also, it has same limitation with vehicles. Just place car on a side of a road in the beginning of the mission, when AI drives it on the road it will behave properly.

Looks nice, downloading right away!

edit: oh, damn, it's big!

[gandalf the white 0]

well, i've played with it now for a bit with my clan... and i gotta say... nice work! BUT!

1) armpatches are sometimes hovering 2D textures in the air

2) those vests look REALLY green for a desert dude... maybe a bit of mud / dust on it?

3) i want a desert pilot!!

[Cpt. FrostBite 0]

he's right. Those vest are indeed a bit too green (on the QRF guys).

There are also some texture bugs on the special jeagers; on the arms and on the bottom of the legs you can still see the green camo textures. Fors the rest this is a great pack.

Although I don't like the shadow 'feature' and some roads (especially the one on the far north) should have been dirt-roads and not those hightened blocks.

is i the only one to get a 'model special' error on all units exept the desert east and west units?

i downloaded from ofp.info (mirror 1)

like what i have seen though

[bonko the sane 2]

played just a little bit but:cool dustscript (it doesnt work if u drive in reverse gear though), together with that lone eagle sound it really sets the ambience, excellent island IMO.

looks good on pic, dl now and fdf are known for good stuff!

[m21man 0]

Excellent work as usual. The elevated roads are a brilliant idea, they definitely add a new twist to combat in towns.

I assume you have a working version of FDF 1.3?

[sanctuary 19]

I tested quickly with an fdf squad fighting 2 soviet teams in one of the town , and liked it so far.

I like this new desert themed malden-like island, but i wonder why people living on this island are not more cautious with their own towns : all their cities have a lot of ruined building .

They should hire a better architect to make more resistant buildings

Excellent work as usual.

The island looks sweet. To bad I have to redownload the FDF mod. Had to reinstall the OS. 1 hour and a half to go... Looks great tho. Can't wait to try it.

[miss_cleo 0]

I like the island, and i like the finnish units alot....

the opfor leaves a little to be desired, however...I havent seen those units since the days of 1.46! Lots of cool desert units and islands...still no good desert opfor. They could have at least had arab faces!!

[Acro 0]

Yes, arab faces would be cool. Wasn't there some arabian face pack or do I remember wrong?

The island itself is very good. Number of nice places to fool around.

yes, naturally...

if it hasnt been a later update for it...

think i have th original FDF 1.3 releace, and now the desert stuff

Well, there are there mostly for sake of having at least something besides Finnish units. Disk space considerations were also an issue, island and textures for it already take quite a lot of space. STT & UCEEs old units take only couple of megabytes of disk space, we just modified them to work with resistance features like pistol proxies.

Nothing stops you from using some excellent existing stuff already out there, like Tonal civvies or HYKs modern US infantry pack.

I have no idea what is wrong.. BUT... i have installed the desert pack pbo (there was only one pbo file in the zip wasnt there??) into the fdfmod addons folder, and nothing happens. the island, and the units, do not show up in the editor.

I have tried moving it to addons and res/addons but the same thing.

I am using the fdf mod exe, and all the other fdf stuff works fine.

anyone know what im doing wrong??
