troop 0 Posted March 19, 2002 Phantastic first mission! Great intro! Just starting up like the official '85 campaign with brilliant [and believable] russian voice acting (love the laughter..) The ambush is an deadly lookout on an upcoming, I believe, very hard campaign. Good! Will sit and wait anxiously for it to arrive. There are some typos in briefing and onscreen messages, but nothing serious. --- (An word of warning [when playing with headphones] and one dislike though..) I'm playing with headphones and usually turned up with OFP. When you get captured, there is that grenade xplosion and this VERY high-pitched, sharp sound. It really did hurt my ears as it was too much. Could you please tone down those and similar sounds just a little bit? It is _not_ annoying and fits quite well;..just way to intensive. Realism; but game. Many thanks in advance. Again, looking forward to this campaign !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theavonlady 2 Posted March 19, 2002 May I suggest ZIPping the PBO? Sometimes raw PBOs get corrupted on downloads for some odd reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Postduifje 0 Posted March 19, 2002 Wow, this is amazing! Both the intro and the mission are of very high quality, and I'm looking forward to the rest. The mission is quite hard, but that's a good thing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
troop 0 Posted March 19, 2002 >May I suggest ZIPping the PBO? Sometimes raw PBOs get corrupted on downloads for some odd reason.< oh yeah; exactly that happened the first time, I've downloaded it. As soon as I copied the [indeed corrupted] Retaliation.demo.pbo into the missions folder and choose 'Single Mission', OFP crashed violently with 'no entry in missions.sqm' Since yesterday evening, when everything was alright, it could've been caused only by this newly copied .pbo file. Easy fix. Thanks for zipping it up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phisher 1 Posted March 20, 2002 Wow great mission, I hope all of em are like this.. If its not too much could you tone down that 'ringing in the ear' sound when you die, It really did ring my ears, scared the sh*t out of my dog too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WKK Gimbal 0 Posted March 20, 2002 I was lying paralyzed behind the Jeep wreck. No way I was gonna stick out my head! The voice acting is supreme... it really adds atmosphere! Great work - I'm really looking forward to this. You've done what I wished they had done in Red Hammer: Made all the briefings, storytext, etc, sound like the Russians are there to free the island and that NATO are evil! Great feel of propaganda!

Antichrist 0 Posted March 22, 2002 We've encountered some problems with fonts while translating it into German We put all the German letters in, but after the save it just changes back to default letters Any ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goetterfunke2 0 Posted March 22, 2002 try to use the german double "ss" insetad of the sharp s :"ß" this would fix the "?" occuruing and the old sharp s is outranged anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theavonlady 2 Posted March 22, 2002 I just played this now. Really nice work! Comments: 1. It's nice to no hear RH voices for a change. However, some of them clearly sound like they were recorded in a roombut they're played for outdoorscenes. 2. When I got wounded, I had to rip my earphones off. Ouch! Is that intentional or could it have to do with Satchel's DR addon? 3. Consider refraining from using harsh explitives in voice and text. I'm looking forward to this campaign.

Antichrist 0 Posted March 22, 2002 1. We don't have money or resources to hire professional actors and record all the sounds at the studio. It has to be done at home using conventional methods (cheap microphones and soundcards) 2. It was half-intentional. The sound was suppose to be loud, but not that loud. I can certainly say that some human error was involved in this 3. This is Russian Army, so it is pretty much impossible, at least in speech. Will definitely use other words in text Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WKK Gimbal 0 Posted March 22, 2002 Might be because I only know 2 words in russian, but I found the voice acting great. Also all the screaming and yelling at enemy contact - it was as effective as shell-sounds, to add atmoshere, rather than a casual "Oh no, 3 is down..." Swearwords? Did they utter swearwords? Could you please add those to the subtitles? Why am I to be cheated from enjoying them? That ringing tone is still hanging in my ear though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spankz 0 Posted March 22, 2002 Oh whats wrong with a little shit, fuck and ass? Sure, the large slaughter of you and your team is JUST peachy, but we can't stand a little nar language? It adds emotion to the moment " Aahh, we've been ambushed, No!! Johhny get up!!, fire back at those fukkers... " Golly Gee Willikers! I'm terribly sorry guys, I don't know what got into me *tee-hee* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antichrist 0 Posted March 23, 2002 But seriously people! Any ideas about the fonts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
