MilitiaSniper 0 Posted October 31, 2006 I just want to make it more realistic. I like the FFUR 2006 conversion. Except the guns jump to much when you shoot them. Sincerely, MilitiaSniper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scruffy 21 Posted October 31, 2006 Try WGL 5.1, it's great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MilitiaSniper 0 Posted October 31, 2006 Whats better? WGL 5.1 or the ECP? Sincerely, MilitiaSniper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Sarkey 0 Posted October 31, 2006 I use ECP, I think the explosions are so beautiful Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scruffy 21 Posted October 31, 2006 Whats better?WGL 5.1 or the ECP? Sincerely, MilitiaSniper ECP "only" changes the effects and enhances the AI, WGL also changes the weapons to be more realistic. That's a bit simplified, both have things the other mod hasn't, but if you want more realism I'd say try WGL. But if you have time try ECP too, we played with that before WGL5 and it's really great, too.

NeMeSiS 11 Posted October 31, 2006 Whats better?WGL 5.1 or the ECP? Sincerely, MilitiaSniper ECP has nicer effects (and immersion-y stuff like talking people), while WGL is very realistic (noticeable in gameplay, not talking about correct soldiers uniforms etc, i dont give a fuck about that, but they are probably correct aswell ) ECP says it has improved AI but i dont really know how it works (IIRC), WGL has improved AI which uses a very simple concept but it turns out really well (+it is performance friendly) EDIT: Ah, just too late Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattxr 9 Posted October 31, 2006 IMHO i think FFUR2006 is teh best conversion, but it looks like 2.5 will be better but has been delayed again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ase290406 0 Posted October 31, 2006 Hey you might want to try FDF. It has realism enhansments and nicer graphics than vanilla OFP. Besides, it's a classic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MilitiaSniper 0 Posted October 31, 2006 I downloaded the WGL. But man I tell you.., I'm stupid when it comes to renaming stuff the right way. Cause I've in the past screwed things up, by doing that. Sincerely, MilitiaSniper PS.Could someone tell me a easy, EASY way of installing WGL? Sincerely, MilitiaSniper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MilitiaSniper 0 Posted October 31, 2006 They kinda dumbass-proofed it by making it an installer? Â Go to their website and DL it I went to the website. But it just talks about how to install the file by making a new folder and stuff! So.., Where's the self installer at? BTW..! Thanks all for your opinions and help! Sincerely, MilitiaSniper PS. Can stand alone addons work with them? Like: RHS's new releases? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MilitiaSniper 0 Posted October 31, 2006 Man.., I did not like the WGL pack. It was alot like a modified OFP/Res. {Sounds Change!} That seems about it! Sincerely, MilitiaSniper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MilitiaSniper 0 Posted October 31, 2006 I guess.., I'm staying with the FFUR 2006. Sincerely, MilitiaSniper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
olemissrebel 0 Posted October 31, 2006 WGL isn't about looks. It's about AI, if you actually make a mission, they will behave totally different from res. FFUR is mainly a visual asthetic, and isn't catered towards realism maniacs, althogh it does change some things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andersson 285 Posted October 31, 2006 I would like a merge between WGL and ECP. Both are serious outstanding projects. I sort of did it once but never again... I took all the values from WGL and added it into ECP (very simplified explanation...) Today I play WGL because of the gameplay (and FDF ofcourse! ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
somebloke 0 Posted November 1, 2006 If ECP, WGL and FFUR merged, well, enough said. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pathy 0 Posted November 1, 2006 FFUR is just other peoples addons wrapped up as a total conversion. ECP is a very nice effects package. WGL is something else entirely and imo is the best of the 3. If you were after visuals only you might have said, but i thought you were after the "most realistic". Try WGL again, it is awesome. Plus i love deployable support weapons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggyluv 2133 Posted November 1, 2006 WGL is the best of the 3. At first I missed the eye-pleasing flameball explosions of ECP, now I prefer the gritty explosions of WGL by far. They are oh-so satisfying If your still having problems with the install, the WGL guys are extremely helpful... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MilitiaSniper 0 Posted November 2, 2006 I got, WGL to work finally. But I like the looks effect the most. ECP seems to be a pain in the butt to get to work. But like some of the last comments. Why not merge all 3 into 1..? It probably would be a pain in the neck to do. But someone or team would become, "HERO/S!" I just want to make my, OFP look good and playout better. What about, Y2K thing? Is that a conversion? And is it good? Sincerely, MilitiaSniper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AfrographX 0 Posted November 2, 2006 From all total-conversian mods FDF is still the best. Second is ecp, because it adds a lot of cool features and you can add your own set of units. I've never understood the fascination of FFUR or WGL. FFUR just seems to be somebodys addon-folder warpped up into one download. And WGL has CWC-like graphics and some changes to the weapon-values. I highly doubt they managed to make significant changes to the AI. I've tested WGL both in SP and MP but have to say it's not better than the normal OFP. //Deployable support weapons can be found in most addon-packs/mods nowadays (FDF,OFRP,SFP,etc.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted November 2, 2006 Quote[/b] ]I've never understood the fascination of FFUR or WGL. FFUR just seems to be somebodys addon-folder warpped up into one download With no offense, you should get a look at it once again to know what you are talking about, of course, the FFUR mod, like several mods around use the best of the community in order to carry out a decent combination that respect the wanted theme and era, but it's not just a "combination" that regroups a bunch of addons and release the pack like that, it's much more than that, otherwise we would have finished a while ago... Several of us volunteered hundred of hours to make this project a reality on, despite the amount of work we had to face during these 2 years and the various real life issues that everyone could experience... As mentioned above, the FFUR 2006 has been especially carry out to allow everyone playing again BIS campaigns and missions with the best addons released thus far, and that somehow fit with the current era, respecting modern gear and loadouts of both sides, featuring new effects and countless enhancements. Furthermore, there is no "best" mod in my judgement, all mods are different in aspect and they can't be compared in the same way, all of them are good as long as people behind' em do their job to the best of their ability. regards, Thunderbird84 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
