Question on Renegade:Peacekeeper mod

Recommended Posts

I was recently reading the Wikipedia article on Flashpoint, and came across this:

"There are well-known inofficial add-ons also, including complete campaigns. One of them is Retaliation: Peacemaker, released in 2003 both as a freeware download and on CDs. It includes full voice acting, cutscenes, complete campaign structure, consisting of 17 missions, and is regarded by most players comparable with the official Cold War Crisis. The game is set in 1985, and you mostly play the role of Dmitry Astakhov, a Russian soldier send to help the official government to keep order. This campaign is more focused towards team interaction than the official ones. For about third of the game you are just a private and have to execute orders, then you are promoted to a sergeant and command a squad. There are a few single-handed missions as well. Storyline starts from your arrival to Everon and ends with a beginning large-scale conflict on Malden. It was supposed to be continued with part two, possibly with an alternate story ending, but there is no public information about further development."

Interested, I immediately went to the site linked from Wiki for this addon: http://retaliation.flashpoint.ru/

I used one of them mirros, got a Russian version, then used another mirror listed there, this time a FileFront mirror, and got it in English. Installed it, and played the mod...right up to the end of the "Forester" mission (about maybe after an hour of playing or so)

Then, the game simply send you back to the menu screen. Is this mod only completed to this extent? The wiki article seems to indicate that it has much more...I was wondering if I could get some help with this matter.

Thanks!

There are 17 missions in the Retaliation campaign, and some mission custcenes between them.

If you were sent back to the menu after 2/3 missions, it is certainly because of a crash.

As the campaign play flawlessly for me, maybe you are using a mod that could make the campaign crashing, and in this case try without the mod you are using.

It is always possible you got the wrong download , as i think i remember there was a kind of early short demo of the campaign (the latest Retaliation campaign is a 130mo download) , check here.

Even after all those years, it is definitively the best unofficial campaign for OFP.

Amen. I hope to beat it (fat chance, I know), but I'm not sure how to get that pro voice acting - and how much it'll cost!

Play it with FFUR 2006 - and be amazed.
