WW1 Mod Expansion Pack

[belgerot 33]

Awesome job! Will you limit the amount a unit can aim the mortar, so that it doesn't bombard it's own position (against the back of a trench wall for example)?

To avoid some trench wall troubles, i did make some "particular" weapons (including the LMG's : chauchat, lewis and mg08), which can be positionned close/inside trench walls (it must be positionned inside wall geometry, which needs some trials while making a mission...not perfect anyway...) :

Hi everyone

I just download the archive, and I had no problem. I opened the archive and there is what is described inside.

I take this opportunity to congratulate you (here) and all those who participated in this project.

[ProfTournesol 956]

Nevermind, i've dowloaded the file on another comp and it's ok.

[belgerot 33]

Judging from the screens, that's definitely a clever and logical way to get around that obstacle. With the holidays coming rapidly we can use one of the evergreens, only a shame we do not have Arma Football

[ProfTournesol 956]

@HxCxFxL : about Mapfact bunkers' doors, i'm quite sure it's not a config trouble but a model trouble, they should have added some properties to the geo lod, like "class house". I cannot do anything without any MLOD files and authorization from the Mapfact team.

[ProfTournesol 956]

For our young friend bennie1983nl, some Belgian soldiers in middle/late war uniform/gear (a mixture of British web equipement, Belgian and French ones) :

[ProfTournesol 956]

Thanks a lot, i've got a lot of work in my RL so less time for modding, i'm taking a little break but i surely will finish the expansion pack.

Suggestions are always welcome.

[Triglav 0]

Hey old friend,

Just downloaded your mod today. Glad to see you're still at it

Regards,

T.

[ProfTournesol 956]

@ Triglav : hi my friend, very nice to see you around here !

@ all : some updates :

Portuguese soldiers, a tribute to their quite unknown sacrifice on the western front :

Some expansion units, "southward", as they were dressed on the Palestine front : British / Indian colonial soldiers :

Annd German colonial troops on the same Palestine front :

Looking very good!

Keep up the great work!

[CAPTUSNR 0]

Terrific stuff ProfTournesol! Appreciate all the hard work on this project.

[WorschteStulle 0]

Delicious! I love this mod! Can`t wait for the next release.

[diggin.robat 0]

Very nice, Prof! Soon we can follow von Lettow-Vorbeck into the heart of Africa.

Although I wonder if the german pith helmets are right. I´ll check this out. They should look like this:

Please don´t forget the black men who did most of the fighting in East Africa: The Askari.

and the Kings African Rifles (of whom I didn´t found a pic)

cheers

Robert

[DespairsRay 0]

Can't wait for more releases, ProfT...

I was wondering, are you working on any other equipment also like canons and general objects for atmosphere.

Also, did the concertina wire idea ever work out or was it tried yet? I think it would be perfect for the mod still.

[ProfTournesol 956]

@ all : thanks for the support, i need it not to lose courage.

@diggin.robat : well, i'm working only on the Palestine front at the moment, the hat i try to feature is this one (i've changed a bit the helmet you see on the previous picture, and modified the cocade to put it on the front) :

Here

Other units are almost ready for this front, i'll show them soon.

@DespairsRay : i'll add stoke mortar (based on IOE model) and german light minenwerfer. I'm not working on specific object at the moment. PM me about the concertina wire to precise what you exactly want, i think it shouldn't be hard to make (just reconfig a BIS object).

[diggin.robat 0]

@ PorfTournesol

Isn´t it the british Woseley helemt? Anyway pictures of german troops are scarce, but it is known that it was odered to change pith helmets into khaki caps with ventail in the back. At least in East Africa also captured Woseleys were used.

Robert

[ProfTournesol 956]

Well, want a little "lawrence" taste ?

@diggin.robat : nope, wolseley is the one i tried to feature on the British units above. But i'm not very good at modeling helmets...

[diggin.robat 0]

Yes! With El ´awrence in the desert! Great, Professeur!

BTW dropped PN for you.

[WorschteStulle 0]

Must.......have.......it! Looks awesome, keep on doing!

[sudayev 27]

oYou gotta be kidding me ... Grade A stuff. I Cant wait to get it. Are you planning to include "desert" map as well ?
