With all these addons we can make a full mod!

With other words:

The OFP comunity made a WW2 Desert mod without seeing it!

Well i am still looking for more WW2 desert addons

Long live OFP.info

Maybe i can rebuild one of my IOH Dutch Army Soldier into a Italian Soldier

Pity there are not more Allied units.

Cheers Bennie1983nl

Is there something wrong with the idea?

[ProfTournesol 956]

No, nothing wrong, very nice idea, i checked my folders and i don't see other addons.

Will you add them in one pack or post ofp info download links here ?

I have a DAK kubelwagen, done a long time ago by Fighter . (a modification of the kubelwagen of INV44)

i'm going to put a link tomorrow

[bennie1983nl 0]

@ ProfT : Well i go alot of stuff form ofp.info but the idea is the creat a pack like the WW2 collection pack of Blackhawk 101 http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=6786

but this will only be Desert units/items.

@ D@nte

I don't have a DAK Kubelwagen yet, BUT you have aslo a reskinned IOE tank!

[Sennacherib 0]

sorry to be late for a link for the kubelwagen, but i have a lot of GO of addons

yes but the dak pz3 is not finished yet. some textures are not changed.

Bennie 1983nl, I belive ok if you can do a new WW2 Italian units for the desert, Vilas only made of the Fascist Republica of Salo, and have personal weapons.

But many time ago someone began mods and newer finished o launched (many of them of Italian ww2 mod of Dr. Rebus and another autors...), and no one have any news...

all of this addons can be used in a DAK missions.

http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=4860 Breda 32 hmg

http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=6178 fiat mod. 35

http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=4388 cv 33 and m13/40 tanks

http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=4629 Bereta 34 pistol

http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=7147 fiat 300 tank

http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=6449 autoblinda ab 41

http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=6436 sahariana and om-35 car

Another "light" army that we can find is the british army, we have a infantery, weapons, the vickers HMG, and a Daimler Dingo car and I use the ww1mod Rolls Royce AC, but we havent got any early tank like the matilda.

http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=5461 valentine tank

http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=6801 matilda tank

http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=6517 matilda tank and 25pound canon

If someone can contact with the autors, and it isn't deleted or destroyed it, please put in download. thanks

Afrika 1942

[Goth_Burner 0]

hi,

i've almost completed an other halftrack version for ya

Sd.Kfz 251/2 c

[bennie1983nl 0]

Cool stuff Goth_Burner!

But allot of stuff has standart bis crew do i have to ask for all the addons if i may change the crew?

Now in the editor i do this:

Empty object -- tank named it "tank1"

east --Dak tank crew (times 3)

take the tankcrew and put in the INIT lines :

This moveincommander tank1

this moveingunner tank1

this moveindriver tank1

[Sennacherib 0]

it's easier to change the CPP.

[bennie1983nl 0]

it's easier to change the CPP.  

I know D@nte,

BUT i change the addon a bit must i ask permission for that?

(just crew)

[zulu1 145]

Bennie,

Good to see you and Goth working on some new desert stuff. Something that was overlooked to a great extent by past modders.

If you are making a mission this would work. If you are

reworking an addon you would need to edit the config.cpp

and replace the standard crew with DAK crew.

nope, the crew is just a detail. but if you change the model or the textures, you need the agreement of the author

Nice to see you guys, still around ?

gorgerous looking addons btw

Quote[/b] ]Zuku1 seems to have been playing a few WWII missions recently. He might be prepared to opine on their suitability for inclusion in a WWII Collection Mission Pack.

As Walter very astutely noted I have been quite involved in the WWII side of OFP as of late. I have been using the WWII Collection mod ver. 3, it’s really a great package. It utilizes a custom GUI, animations, and effects by way of Nimrods effects addon. The sides have been changed from West, East and Resistance to Allies, Axis and Russian. The vehicle classes have been changed to fall into various groups. Standard BIS crewmen have been changed to WWII crews. Weapons have been reworked and swapped around with units. There are different config’s for a more realistic and much less accurate upminder weapons set or a more accurate I44 weapons set. Here's some of the readme file:

Quote[/b] ]Features:

Reordering of units

interchangerble weapons

weapon alterations (UP thompson has single shot mode)

armour & speed values are altered as per http://www.onwar.com/tanks/

note; this does not completly reflect the universal armor code.

FAB's panther packs armour tweaked so stronger (2 hits)

pak 36 is towable by  opels

fixing of major bugs

vehicles are assigned appropriate crews

Infantry equipped with UPMINDER weapons OR I44 weapons loadouts  

By doing this the creators of the mod have removed the config.cpp from some addons leaving only the model and texture files and have made some common config files. By the nature of this it would not be easy to just take the addons from the collection to use them in a retex rework.

For a while now I have been considering putting my collection of original WWII addons up on filefront. Perhaps grouping them by organization (ie AIA, ECA, WWIIEC, etc) in a single archive file. More or less like the collection mod, but leaving the addons untouched. Of course this would take some time to sort and pack them together and upload them.

Bennie, If you are still interested in the Collection the link Walter provided is for the latest ver. 3. ALso you'll need the Objects pack as well, should be on OFP.Info. Somewhere I found a small update for this, here is the link:

[bennie1983nl 0]

this gets confusing....

Well my first idea is to put the loose desert addons in 1 pack,   with some never released addons to create 1 Pack/Mod.

And rewriting config files is not my favorit thing to do!

(changing crew is something else)

[CAPTUSNR 0]

Hey Zuku. Should you decide to up-load your collection of WWII addons please let me know as I would be very interested in having them. And I'm sure that there are others in the community whow would want them too.

[Sennacherib 0]

in a few days, you will have a surprise.

[Goth_Burner 0]

here something new WiP

@  d@nte.. does that mean you'll release your desert stuff?

btw.. i've also an british version of an m4a1.. ( d@nte should know wich one i mean )
