  1. 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.

    Not a big deal but theres a few untextured LODs here and there. I'll post em if no one has seen this before.

    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 sad_o.gif


  3. Yes but were the normal BIS files and setting changed in any way that would effect other mods? If so I'm reinstalling everything and taking out the FDF mod.

    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 tounge_o.gif )

    Start OFP with normal exe and BMPs are happily out of scale again.


  4. - great audio surround (voices, MUSIC!!! well maybe I'm fan of the nordic metal, but the band I heard was not what I personally like - matter of gust - but the other music, symphonic.. absolutely amazed me :])

    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 tounge_o.gif


  5. Why a new main executable? I guess partly you need it to load the sound and voice subfolders of the modfolder (afaik only addons, dta, bin and campaigns can be loaded via -mod= parameter), but are there any other changes to the executable? And if so, what has been changed?

    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.

    Quote[/b] ]Is it possible to use the addons with the normal executable or are some needed dependies in the sound and voices folders or something else that will make it not work with the normal executable?

    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.

    Quote[/b] ]Is it possible to put the modfolder elsewhere (i have all my mods in a folder called mods, so something like fdfmod.exe -mod=mods\finmod would be cool)

    Se Kegetys' answer above.

    Errata:

    Weapon and magazine names for Tak2000 (Sako TRG-42), Remington 870 and folding chair in README.TXT are incorrect.

    They should be

    Tak 2000 FDF_kiv2000 FDF_kiv2000Mag

    Remington 870 FDF_rem870 FDF_rem870Buck,FDF_rem870Slug

    Folding chair FDFtuoliFolded

    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. This bug seems not to affect single player or hosted servers.

    DOWNLOAD fixed PBO here. This PBO may also fix texture problems with some Voodoo cards.

    Any mission with BMP2 won't work on dedicated servers due to conflig in config.cpp.

    To fix this, delete s_o_fdf.pbo from finmod/addons directory on your dedicated server (or rather move that file so you've got backup). Clients do not have to delete that .pbo, it will still complain about "finnish_defence_forces" addon but otherwise missions will work just fine.

    edit: added bmp2 fix

  8. 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.
