We just found one quite nasty bug. Using Leopard will crash dedicated servers, due to invalid aspect ratio in one of the interior textures. This might also be reason why some people are experiencing sudden crashes to desktop with FDFMod. We right now are investigating how to fix this in best possible way. Just releasing fixed PBO would result in patch size of at least 18MB, so we are researching other options too. This bug seems to not affect singleplayer or hosted servers.

Could you please specify what units have untextured LODs? I guess this is known bug. After running binarize, some LODs were missing small patches of textures on backside of soldiers. It affects almost all models

No. If you start OFP with fdfmod.exe or -mod=fdfmod, it just uses our config.cpp which points to new BMP model in finmod/ directory. No original OFP files are modified! (If installed correctly ) Start OFP with normal exe and BMPs are happily out of scale again.

Well, this is total modification after all so we changed default east BMP model too. They are both same size because both models are on correct scale.

Oops, we found another mistake, this time with weapon and magazine names for Tak2000 (Sako TRG-42). In readme, where it mentions weapon and magazine names, line Tak 2000 FDF_tak2000 FDF_tak2000Mag is incorrect. It should be Tak 2000 FDF_kiv2000 FDF_kiv2000Mag

Most of the classical compositions used in FDFMod are composed by Jean Sibelius. Exceptions are: Finnish National Anthem - Fredrik Pacius Farewell Slavianka - Vasiliy Ivanovich Agapkin Muistoja Pohjolasta - Sam Sihvo Porilaisten Marssi - Christian Fredrik Kress I'm not 100% sure I got them right though

Seems like our quality control slipped a little bit Here is fixed version of single player mission Hard Times Download fixed version of Hard Times here

FDFMod forum contains few threads with screenshots. Some of the images are over 100kB so I wont post them here (and there are too many pictures to post here anyway).

New executable is only for users who might not be familiar with how to edit their shortcuts and use -mod parameter. Practically all new executable does is to add -mod=finmod parameter to command line before executing flashpointresistance.exe. Well, I'm running FDFMod with normal shortcut, just using parameters -mod=hisky;finmod -nosplash. So nothing fancy there. However addons do not work without -mod parameter since they depend on changes in game's main config.cpp. So you can't just place them into regular addons folder. Se Kegetys' answer above.

1.0 has been released, new thread here! For more details take look at FDFMod homepage

Not yet, we are currently just uploading it and getting ready to distribute it to hosting sites. Since whole mod is almost 200MB, this is going to take couple of hours on 256kbps ADSL.

This is the announcement you all have been waiting for :D:p I'm pleased to announce that FDF Mod 1.0 went through some very intensive testing last night and it should be OK for release.

We've posted some new screenshots of F/A-18 Hornet, now with new textures by Norsu. Some pictures are over 100kB so I'm not posting them here. Right now Hornet is almost finished, so it should be included in FDFMod 1.0. F/A-18 Hornet screenshot thread @ FDFMod forum

NSV in action 21.5.2003 - FDFMOD Team FDFMod Team proudly presents the Russian made 12.7mm NSV AA Machinegun, also known as "Utes". The NSV forms the basis of the close air defence of the Finnish jaegers and APCs. Our NSV works without any scripting or tweaking, it only needs to be placed on the map and it will work as shown in this multiplayer video. Video is available at FDFMOD site, look at the news section. Finnish Defence Forces Modification site
