Bug Reporting / FH Website

« on: 28-08-2012, 00:08:23 »

Hey, the FH website is looking a bit strange lately. I can see all the links to Archive, FAQ, Weapons, Vehicles, etc and the post text and photos, but everything around that is clear. All I see is the background. I'm not sure if this is a problem with my browser (which it definitely could be) or if there is some changes going on/it was changed that way.

Any thoughts?

Suggestions / Alternative for Italian Snipers

« on: 22-08-2012, 07:08:24 »

This topic has been brought up on several previous threads, and I had an idea about it while messing around on Keren the other day. My suggestion is sharp shooters. Basically, give them an M1891 Carcano like the infantry soldier but with some mines, smoke grenades, etc. Maybe give that specific kit a little more zoom when you go into the iron sights (if possible).

Any thoughts? Other ideas? I'm just tired of using the Kar98 on Italian maps.

Suggestions / Personal Weapons

« on: 06-08-2012, 18:08:19 »

One thing I love about FH2 is the large variety of weapons and equipment compared to pretty much every other game out there. I was reading a thread about someone complaining that on Tunis there are two identical rifleman kits, and someone suggested that they throw a Webley in with the kit and limit it. That really got me thinking, some soldiers would take personal weapons with them. I know my grandfather (who was a navigator with the US 8th Air Force) took his personal S&W .38 with him.

I know there are restraints on what can practically be done in this mod, but I think it would be neat to see some "personal weapons". Maybe a new civilian revolver or a knife or dagger or something. Simple things. They could be thrown in with officer kits or some pickups, just to give us something to hunt for and add more variety.

But, like I said, I know there are constraints on what can be made. What do yall think? Would this be something cool to have? And most importantly, is it practical?

Off-Topic / Spanish Civil War

« on: 02-08-2012, 06:08:06 »

So, I didn't really want to put this in suggestions because I know it can't be done anytime soon, but I was just thinking about how unique the Spanish Civil war was in regards to WWII and how it would be neat to explore it in FH2. It was a slug out between the Spanish that almost turned into a testing ground for German weapons and an early way for nations to show whose side they were on (Germany supporting the fascists, US, USSR and others supporting the other side). There were many 1930s planes and takes used, as well as nice old Mausers like the Spanish M1893 rifle and the M1916 carbine.

What do yall think? Would it be neat to explore the Spanish Civil war even though it wasn't technically part of WWII?

FH2 Help / Support / Hull Gun Traverse/AT gun problem

« on: 19-07-2012, 09:07:31 »

I am experiencing a bug on tanks with hull mounted guns (excluding the M3 Grant/Lee and the M11/39) and AT guns where the guns will not move. At all. Up or down, side to side. I'm not sure what's going on.

Any advice appreciated.

FH2 Help / Support / Aspect Ratio Adjustment

« on: 19-05-2012, 18:05:42 »

Hey guys, So I just got a beautiful new widescreen monitor, and FH2 looks amazing on it. Except....there's a small problem. The aspect ratio isn't right. All the menus and HUDs are really stretched out. I've looked around in the video options menu but there's nothing for it. Any tips on how to adjust it?

Bug Reporting / FH2/BF2 Spawn Screen Freezing - Offline account

« on: 08-05-2012, 04:05:01 »

So, my internet access on my gaming computer has been down lately due to a lightning strike (yes, a lightning strike), and when I log in to my offline account to go blast some AI, I have an issue when loading a map. I load it, hit "join game" and go to the spawn screen, the mouse and keyboard immediately freeze. The trees, bushes and sounds still go on in the background, but I can't do anything. Eventually I either have to control-alt-delete or alt-tab it and go to the desktop. The thing is, it's affecting all of BF2, not just FH2 (that's why I think it has to do with my offline account).

I would appreciate any advice or fixes, thanks!

Suggestions / Portable AT gun for Italy

« on: 07-04-2012, 02:04:55 »

I was looking at pictures online for my Facebook page, and I came across this:

http://www.antitank.co.uk/images/20mm/solothurn-PhotoItalyBersaglieri.jpg

It's a Solothurn S-18/1000 in Italian service. While it was very bulky, it was fairly powerful. I'm not sure if the Devs have a candidate for an Italian man-portable AT gun, but if they don't this could be a good one.

Does anyone have any other ideas?

General Discussion / 2.45 ETA

This is probably a little far out to be asking, but do we have any idea of the ETA of 2.45?

Suggestions / Grant 37mm turret view

« on: 26-03-2012, 02:03:43 »

A friend of mine and I love to hop in Grants and coordinate the 37mm and the 75mm to use the vehicle to its maximum effectiveness, but in the turret there seems to be a situational awareness problem because of the limited view. I always seem to be spotting targets for him and things like that. Would it be easy to add another camera view on top of the turret? (And would it be historically accurate?)

Bug Reporting / Tank gun elevation controls bug

« on: 15-03-2012, 04:03:32 »

I've had an issue that pops up every so often, and I haven't found a way to fix it other than creating a new profile, which is not fun.

Basically, the controls for elevating tank guns becomes inverted (push the mouse up, the gun goes down, and vise-versa, as opposed to push up and it goes up). I've tried messing around in the controls menu, but it doesn't seem to work, and I'm not knowledgeable enough to figure it out.

Is anyone else experiencing this? And does anyone know how to fix it? Or is it just me?

Thanks.
