hello, sorry for the delay but i was in exam period at my university, i tweaked the mine a litle bit, now it has 1500 poly, similar to the american one, i think it's ok now. Also i updated the texture adding extra detail with the normal map. I think it's ready for export

i have reduced the number of polygons of the mine, now fh2 engine can handle it? also i have finished modeling the low poly wersion of the italian grenade SRCM mod 35, from which it derives the smoke grenade which differs from the original for the yellow coloration and various holes on the body bomb.

In the specific i'm working on the smoke grenade, anti-tank mine, binoculars, mortar and anti-tank rifle

Are you doing the Brixia light mortar and the Wz. 35? That be really, really cool.

im doing the heavy one, the 81mm Mortaio da 81 also the Wz. 35 was a polish made anti-tank rifle and was gifted to italy after the surrender of poland by germany, the official anti-tank rifle of Royal italian italian army is this one Solothurn S-18/1000, regarding the Brixia i will make it, since i think the coding for the weapon can be copy pasted from the japanese ligth mortar of comunity map pack

Nice looking mine. :D I made the same one a long time ago, but the poly count and UV sheet wasn't optimized as best it could be.

What did you use to create it? afaik BF2 has some strict rules about needing to have the models in 3DsMax9 so it can be exported properly.

Can you post the triangle count, and texture sheets, sizes? etc...

i used 3d max 2016, the texture have been made using substance painter, i havent exported the texture yet because i dont know the parameter of battlefield 2 for exporting, the mine rendered in substance painter is the low poly model with a normal map applied to it from a high poly model

Hello, I would like to lend a hand to the mod, I'm working on some Italian weapons to finish the arsenal of the Royal Italian Army, here the B4 Italian anti-personnel mine with textures, you might be interested? excuse me if It's the wrong section, but I did not know where to put the topic.

Hey, have you looked at these(?):

http://www.t.lonesentry.com/articles/ttt34/italian-l-type-grenade.html
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_L_grenade

I wrote the Wikipedia article look the history im defly94 and yes i saw that article and i quoted it in the reference

Hi, i'm writing the wikipedia page of this grenade, and i'm finding a lot of trouble finding information on this misterious grenade. Since the grenade is featured in the game, I was thinking if maybe the devs can give me the source where they took information on it and maybe a real life picture or the contact of someone that posses it?

I think avoiding subjective sentences and providing a minimum information is enough to be accepted by wikipedia

;) check https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Reality, their page is poor but was accepted.

Well i think we did it finally. I created the page the 30th of september and since that date the page has been corrected multiple times by wikipedia's comunity and has not been marked with negative templates, i think that is ok for them

In the 'awards' section you said 'fh2 scores a very good user rating'. Please take out the phrase "very good". It is an opinion and subjective. Think about, who rates a game on moddb. These are usually people, who like and look for the mod.

Write in a more neutral tone, like "on moddb fh2 recieved a user score of 9.4 based on numerous user reviews."

And what about a citation pointing to FH1? Or even better writing a joint article on FH1 and FH2? This way you can include more references and have an article with a broader topic, which makes it less likely to be taken out of wikipedia.

Ok i will fix it, concerning FH and the joint article is difficult to do since i must rename the page to forgotten hope and add the section regarding the first mod. This is very hard because require a special procedure and the approvation of the admins. Instead i think is more easy to create the page of FH1 and add link between the pages, unfortunately i'm not very documented about the game since i never played it maybe someone with more documentation can?

You should start with citations already in your introduction and in particular use the most valuable ones first, like the game magazin links. Now your problem is a lot of references pointing to the fh2 site at first, while having the award winning stuff at the end. Make it the other way around. Moderators possibly do not read until your references, because they come so late.

It should look something like: "forgotten hope 2 is an award winning [1,2] game modification of the 2005 game battlefield 2. It is set in a ww2 setting [3] and offers a heavily modified gameplay compared [4] to bf2."

Everyone, who reads your first paragraph should immediately know, that it is a credible article. It is not only about havjng references, but also using them for your message.

 Also, the weapons table is peobably too much for wikipedia. Is there any way to hide it, so it only expands on click?

And for reference: did you include the MoTY award aswell as the honary mentions on modbd?

Are there any other sources, like minimods or cooperations with other mods (PR with the gamesp shutdown issue?) which can be used as outside references?

Ok i modified the heading, yes there is a way to hide the weapon table but i know how to do it in the italian wikipedia, in italian wiki it is called"cassetto"(drawer) i'm still searching the eng wiki for a tutorial.Yes i mentioned the award on ModDB

[EDIT] ok i figured out how to add the show/hide on the weapon table

There is a mention of FH2 on IGN, I guess that could work as a valid reference?
http://www.ign.com/games/forgotten-hope-2-a-battlefield-2-total-conversion/pc-114673

Thanks added on the page.

The main work with the page is finish the weapon table, since FH2 developers made a shit-ton of weapons

I tryed to make the page on English Wikipedia, they took about 30 min to take it down even if i added quotation. On the other hand the italian version is ok, maybe i will attract more of my countrymen to this splendid game. I also found that the only other version of that page that still resist are the finnish and the japanese one
delete what i said, the page is still there. It have been review and is now marked with a "more quotation" banner, maybe this is the luky one. The page is still a WIP maybe someone can help me since my english is not very good.
