The latest version of TS3 and volume control plugin do not seem to work with BF2/FH2 (3.0.8.1 TS and volume control v1.3 ASI1.8)

It is not limited to just BF2/FH2 - Age of Empires 3 and Far Cry 2 are the same

Previous versions were nice with 70% volume reduction, but now there is none

Anyone else having this problem?

Would love a solution as not being able to hear anything when in a tank/heavy combat is a pain for organised battles

Cheers!

Suggestions / Colour-Blind friendly maps
« on: 19-04-2012, 20:04:57 »
I'll keep it simple

I am colour-blind
Reading the reddish names of points on maps is often difficult to do - especially when in battle over TS and you are trying to tell someone to send troops/support their over TS

I propose a white border around the names of points on all maps

Here is a before shot:



Here is an after shot:



I struggle to read any of the point names in the above shot
The only point I could say I can read even remotely well is East Giarabub

The after shot I have no problems with - perhaps the outline/glow could have been a little stronger, but for colour-blind people like me (roughly 10% of the male population) it is a lot easier

Cheers

FH2 Help / Support / ALT+W causes CTD?
« on: 13-09-2011, 08:09:40 »
It's not happened to me many times, but it is very frustrating when it does occur

I have ALT mapped as PTT through teamspeak and on the odd occasion, when I am talking and moving forward, the combination of alt+w causes the game to CTD without an error message

It has probably only happened around 5-10 times in total so I've not bothered to run it in windowed mode or anything like that yet - a few of the guys I spoke to on my TS chanel said they had heard of the bug but had never experienced the issues themselves

Suggestions / FH2 Awards: An Italian medal
« on: 02-09-2011, 08:09:23 »
Would love an Italian medal - say 5 wins each on the Italian maps

Would this be too hard to do?

At the moment it seems the Italian wins are counted as German wins towards the Africa star (which is fine) but would like the Italian maps to be seperate with a seperate medal

I don't have any problems with the commonwealth star containing Canada/NZ/Aus/GB

I'd even be happy for the Africa star to say "5 wins on Giarabub as Italians" instead of Germans lol

Needs more Italian recogniziton! Mia familia!!!1!!!1

Thoughts?

I thought the Lees and some of the other Allied tanks featured in the Africa maps were invincible to rounds from the Panzer III or AT Rifle - this is in 2.26, but have experienced it in 2.25 as well

I tried flanking around them and ended up getting taken out as any shot made did nothing

The AT rifles - both the German and Boys anti-tank did squat from any angle/distance - though, interestingly the AT grenades the british have were effective regardless of where the nade landed - as long as it was near the tank

Only the stationary AT guns did anything - namely, the 2 pdr

I noticed the effectiveness of them in Gazala

El Alamein is another map where the Panzer III's (both J early/late) do nothing against some of the tanks - from memory I think it was the Crusader that seemed invincible

Anyone else noticed this at all?  Don't know if it's just isolated to the British tanks as I haven't played much with them lately, though have been taken out easily enough in German tanks in Africa maps :)

FH2 Help / Support / Freezes on Server Join
« on: 21-11-2009, 06:11:43 »
Hi

Whenever I join a server online, FH2 freezes totally a few seconds after I have joined and the map loads

So I get approx. 1 - 5 seconds before it freezes

No ctd or anything it just freezes and I either have to ctrl+alt+del it or restart in some cases

It's really annoying

I've re-installed both BF2 and FH2 three times now and still no luck

Anyone got any ideas?

Cheers =)

FH2 Help / Support / SP/COOP CTD - XP SP3 - GOOD SYSTEM
« on: 15-11-2009, 13:11:22 »
I've searched all the other threads and haven't found much about this on

After a while - usually 10 - 15 mins - FH2 will CTD in SP/COOP and I've no idea why

It's happened on every map I've tried so far

I'm running

e8400 @ 3.6 ghz
9800 GX2
4 Gb DD2 800 (3.5 Gb XP)
Windows XP Sp3

Hopefully you guys can shed some light on the issue

atm i'm thinking it's just some AI/Bot issue

Cheers =)
