wow outstanding good models!
All SS models are very good detailed and realistic looking. Also the splitter tarn has the right colour and sheme!!!! Also the white stuff is nice detailed and dirty.
So I guess we wont see any coats?

Very nice models, they look incredible; when they are released I might spent some time adding SS runes for more realism. Anyway, too bad that there's no coats; the MG player would look badass like this:

Glad to hear that. There was a lot of torture involved getting it right in time for the Christmas news (hence the slight delay). Special thanks to Knoffhoff for the research and camo templates. :)

The winter gear looks awsom-0.

Also, those missing the long or "greatcoats", modelling and animating them might have been more difficult than it would have been worth in the end.
Title: Re: Forgotten Hope News Update: 26th of December

You can have many different animated playermodels in bf2. but not at the same time. We are only allowed to have 1 Set of Bones ( you need those for animations) at one Time. I saw running horse in BF2 engine before but again. Horse or Human! what do you want?  ;D

Anyway, nice news update! Short and sweet, but showing excellent new stuff in an awesome quality! I really love that white-washed helmet and the different camouflage suits. Unfortunately no great coats, but you don´t always get what you want.
I wonder, though, if these models can be used on the Eastern Front, too? :D
Can´t wait for the "big announcement", too!

The only things the models are missing are mitts or gloves for the Germans. The Americans can go without then since they were short on proper winter clothing. (if I'm not too wrong about that)

These where the men of the 101st airborne. The american troops in the bulge where mostly equipped with winter clothing. The problem was that it was like a resort. A place where troops could take a breather from the combat, as nobody expected that the germans would dare to attack via the ardennes

Deja vu on that last verse anyone?

Most of them by me. There's little coding involved, most of the time is spend (or rather wasted) on restarting  bf2editor between exports, to check if the vertex weights look ok. Tweaking the vertex weights is a difficult process because BF2 supports only one vertex weighted to two bones. That's why some FH2 skins look warped a bit in some poses, especially near the crotch are, and this is also what would make long trench coats warp.

Another problem is that many of the BF2 animations have very strange poses. The BF2 player models look reasonable in these poses because their player models have much fewer polygons than ours, so there are less distortions near joints.

Anyway, recently I've added animation playback to BfMeshView, which should significantly improve our player model export work flow (and yes there will soon be a new BfMeshView release).

Nope, the heads are the same as Normandy Heer/SS. But maybe I'll do some minor reskins to give them a slightly paler skin color and red cheeks/nose. :)

Ah, Remdul, the one who makes modders' life easier. :)

I have seen recently that you have made a new script to import colmeshes, it will be quite useful for me, since sometimes I have to modify exports and I don't have any export scene to work on.

Thanks for your answer. I have never had the chance to export soldiers (since Project Reality prefers using existing vbf2 models), it sounds to be the hardest thing to export in BF2.

*looks at his Allied things still missing list and italian things still missing list
Ahh that!


I do understand now why the germans used half white, half regular army camoflage.
We went on our own winter offensive airsofting yesterday. Some guys had full white the others full regular outfits. And both dint worked properly

exept when it went dark, then the Full army costumes where actually better then the full white

Post by: IrishReloaded on 27-12-2010, 15:12:10
tao: the german winter uniform was reversable. Outside it was camo, and inside it was white.
And it is better to have a mixed outfit. Clear white will stick out easier then little white and little camo.

And why they got half white half camo? Well maybe the uniform was so dirty, maybe this soldier liked white better. Why? there is not always an answer:P

ome guys had full white the others full regular outfits. And both dint worked properly
so half half is good. And on the distance you play airsoft (I play airsoft too so i know what im talking about) camo makes almost no sence.

Too bad WW2 was german biased.
edit:
I donno tao, you are complaining all time that there is no allied stuff, instead of being happy that we get news at least. remeber there was a time where got 1 news per months, and in last time we get really some kind of "weekley news". Be happy. I think there is a lot of alleid stuff in the backround, and they wait for the right moment( maybe the moment when you stop your "BIAS" stuff" ^^

explain then why the 111 pumas get added yet no Thousands of Humbers , T17 staghounds and Dingo's?

Mapper needs to request them? how can you miss the famous action of the 11th hussars at Villers bocage?
Or the Famous King force at el alamein? It was those churchills that captured AND defended Kidney ridge. As since it has been said in the past that a certain vehicle can only be added if it played major contribution to the battle (like tiger at mareth).


That sentence is just rubbish.Sorry.
All the fancy and super rare german stuff gets added, yet not the more common allied stuff. I can give you dozens of examples.

It is old, yet still true.

Everytime i got answers like=It needs sufficient numbers. Or it needs to be present on the map, Or played a major contribution
Yet when you still bring that, you still get the same old answer.

Because 66 of them were issued to Panzer Lehr, 2nd Panzer Div and LSSAH. It was THE scout vehicle for panzer divisions in Normandy. It was relatively rare vehicle, but NOT IN NORMANDY.

And i agree it should be added actually. Because it was also with the leading elements of the Assault during Operation Luttich


Then why cant the same be done on for example, Villers bocage and the 11th hussars?And there humbers and dingos?

I dont have a problem with the puma ingame.Or other rare german stuff. i have a slight problem with the same situation with allied vehicles, with examples even being=more common and FAR more used. Yet STILL not added

You shouldn´t rant that much...
Say thanks because we got Churchills at all!
And if you really want that stuff, why don´t you get 3DS Max and start working on them?
Anyways, sorry if I sounded harsh!

I think that after the devs realised that the amount of vehicles on a map is limited, scout vehicles kind of fell out of favor. There are only very few maps where they make sense gameplaywise (I wouldn't even say that Lüttich is one of them). So after no mapper wanted a british scout car they just didn't make one and gave them the Stuart Recce instead because they already had it.

You can have many different animated playermodels in bf2. but not at the same time. We are only allowed to have 1 Set of Bones ( you need those for animations) at one Time. I saw running horse in BF2 engine before but again. Horse or Human! what do you want?  ;D
Hmmm. So if the player animations on a given map (surely, this is map-specific instead of mod-specific?) are the same for all playermodels on both sides, if one model is wearing greatcoats, all models should wear it, pilots and tankers included, or it looks funny? ;D I can see this as a distant possibility on Ostfront proper with both sides wearing greatcoats (as in the screenshots), but Winter War is going to be tough (unless you put in the Raate Road where the Ukrainian divisions did not have winter gear).

Yeah, I mean the MoH ones being posted here.  As for the post-war trousers, I have it on good authority that they are fixed internally, and that they just aren't gonna replace the renders that were in the update, as it would be too bothersome to do it for all the news sites it got posted on. :P

Edit: Wait wait wait...did you think I was talking about the trousers themselves, not the camo pattern?  I'm talking camo pattern here.  The trousers themselves are fine.  Its the camo pattern that is post-war.  Looks like you're the one who talks loud but knows little about what the other person is saying.

And what are you trying to tell me with this?

Your pictures of the "war time pattern tan/water camo" are pictures of cheap reproductions that look nothing like the real "tan/water" camo. You want the uniforms to look like that? You have to be nuts.

Nice that you own a BGS tunic. Those are getting sought after lately. But when you have the privilege to own one of these, you should actually take a close look at them before you make silly comments on the forums.

Of course I can follow how you come to the conclusion that on the render you see a post war camo pattern. Pattern is similar, colors are almost the same, they are easy to mix up for somebody who doesn't know much about it.

I have a little task for you. Try to find out what the reversed Splittertarn pattern is and with a bit of imagination you might be able to figure out how a render of pants in a pattern that is a mix betwen reversed Splittertarn and Sumpftarn occured.

I'm not talking about trousers. Just the pattern.

HAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHHAAH

Dude, I defy you.  DEFY YOU, to prove that the wartime camo I just showed you is incorrect in any way, shape, or form.  I utterly defy you to do that.  The camo pattern on those trousers right now is a post-war BGS.  I pointed that out to Kev the moment I saw it.  He told me that Remdul has fixed it internally, and that they posted the incorrect renders.  I posted a photo set, off Wehrmacht awards forum (if you don't know what that is, its basically a forum of guys who could put me and taranov to shame) showing varying patterns of BGS camo.  They are IDENTICAL to the camo pattern on those trousers.

M44 Tan/Water was a MUCH different camo than splinter.  It was darker, more mustardy, the edges were blurred and rounded off.  The M43 type, much rarer, is closer to what you have, with distint borders, but still far off:

A complete idiot for what?  Knoffhoff first claims that I "talk loud and know little."  He then goes on to say "You want the uniforms to look like that? You have to be nuts." and "Pattern is similar, colors are almost the same, they are easy to mix up for somebody who doesn't know much about it."  That's all nice, except he's talking not to some random forum lurker, but a guy who makes it his living to know about this shit.  He wants to go off and insult me on this, he better be able to get solid fact on it, which I know he cannot.

I did, long ago, when the pea-dot was first introduced.  There was an epic thread on that.

And if you look at what I wrote, I wrote that according to the people I've spoken too, that render was the incorrect one, and that it HAS been fixed internally.  Knoffhoff then came in and started saying that I'm wrong.

And the reason I do sometimes talk to much, and have a bit too big of a mouth, is because when I KNOW something is wrong, I point it out.  I was polite though.  I noted in my first post that it was incorrect, but that it was just the wrong render, and according to Kev, it had been fixed internally.  It was knoffhoff who insulted me, then started spewing that I was wrong.

How is it "completely different"? For instance, if you compare the pattern in the red circle with the one below the grenade, it looks exactly the same.

(http://www.abload.de/img/jh_yn9-835kzzp.jpg)

the only problem seems to be the tone of color, which might be caused by lighting.

They are similar, yes. In that the later ones evolved FROM the wartime tan water pattern and was used for quite some time. I see them in surplus stores all the time, they still even make my heart jump if im not paying attention.

The same is true of Italian camo schemes. The wartime camo was the basis of their camo pattern well into the 1990s. To the untrained eye, the postwar evolutions appear very similar and are often sold as "ww2 italian camo" to people who don't know any better.

They are similar, but for the needs of this game, they ARE completely different.

Tone of colour is extremely important in this.  Also, the greens on the BGS pattern are more broken up and thinner.  The 43 tan and water is fatter green, and they're far less broken, plus are much less jagged.  The browns are also larger and fewer in number.  These are incredibly important differences when looking at camo.  Just take a loot at the BGS camo and tell me that that isn't identical to those trousers.  You can't, because it IS.  Remdul put IN the postwar camo.  As I have said repeatedly, when I talked to Kev about this, he said, point blank, that Remdul did the BGS camo on accident, that the posted render in the newsupdate was INCORRECT, that it got out on accident, and that the corrected camo was already done by Remdul.

And Kading is right on that.  For example, here is wartime italian camo, next to post-war:

(http://www.dererstezug.com/images/sewn.jpg)(http://www.dererstezug.com/images/metal.jpg)

Other then fading, it LOOKS almost exactly the same.  However, the major difference is in a slightly brighter blue, and the edging being more ruffled.  Its minor, but it completely changes the authenticity of the camo pattern.

And if you look at what I wrote, I wrote that according to the people I've spoken too, that render was the incorrect one, and that it HAS been fixed internally.  Knoffhoff then came in and started saying that I'm wrong.

And the reason I do sometimes talk to much, and have a bit too big of a mouth, is because when I KNOW something is wrong, I point it out.

I never said you were were wrong that the pattern is not a accurate ww2 pattern and I agree that it has be fixed. I internally was trying to get it right done for the renders but I failed.
But what I say is that the pattern on the renders is not the postwar BGS pattern. And my honest opinion is that you don't know much about what you are talking about if you claim it is. And if you really earn money with that knowledge, I'd advise the one paying you to ask to get his money back. I'm sorry if that hurts you, but it's my honest opinion. You should remember that you will never know everything and you can always learn new things. And sometimes admitting that you are wrong might make you much more likable.

Here are some photos of camo patterns of german winter jackets that I personally own and are no cheap reproductions but the original thing.

First I want to show you the most common Wehrmacht camoflage pattern:
The pattern is the Heeressplittertarnmuster 31.
(http://img545.imageshack.us/img545/6733/p1020513n.jpg)

Second I want to show you where the pattern on the renders is coming from:

Again the pattern is the Heeressplittertarnmuster 31.
Outstanding is that in comparison to the best know variation that is shown above the colors are switched. Green parts are brown, brown parts are green. Color shades were different depending on the manufacturer (like with all camo itmes). However, the most common color is similar to the color of the postwar BGS pattern. Collectors use to call it reversed Splittertan. Items in this pattern are rare but still they were frequently used. This was intended to go into the mod on a very limited basis (Squad leader only). But it originally showed up on the render. 

(http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/580/revsplitt.jpg)

Compare the original render:

(http://img63.imageshack.us/img63/3383/splitt.jpg)

And at last I want to show you the Sumptarnmuster. Originally called Wehrmachtssumptarnmuster 43. Collectors sepreate the 43 and 44 pattern, but originally the name has never been changed (to my knowledge). This pattern with the regular Heeressplittertarnmuster was the most used on the winter uniforms. The jacket I own shows the 44 style of the pattern. I would have loved to see it on the renders, because showing the reversed Splittertarn without having Sumpftarn is just wrong.

(http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/5088/p1020516i.jpg)

Now to dissolve how those renders  originated here is the story:
The first render showed the SS stuff and regular and reversed  Splittertarn. I said we need Sumpftarn, the reversed Splittertarn can't go without Sumptarn.
We got a edited reversed Splittertarn that was identical to the postwar BGS pattern. I said,no way, we can't show that.
Then we got what we see on the renders now. Reversed Splittertarn with blurred edges that was supposedf to go through as the 44 Supftarn pattern. I don't think it deserved to go on the renders but couldn't say anything because I'm not online 24/7.
But for once and all the renders don't show the postwar BGS pattern.

Post by: VonMudra on 29-12-2010, 03:12:45
You could have possibly, at any point, pointed out that it was reverse splinter?  Instead you debate me on if its BGS or not.  BGS basically IS reverse splinter with some fading a la tan/water, which, when you look at a render that is faded and digital, one can see on that, and from what you're saying, is what that is.  Now, if you came in, and said that "yes, that is supposed to be reverse splinter", we could have avoided this entire thing.  I was working under the impression that that was tan/water, and your continued fight with me on if it was tan/water or not would quite well bring anyone to think that it is tan/water.  If that IS supposed to be reverse splinter, then its technically mostly correct (other than the blur), though yes, EXTREMELY rare.  But that is ONLY if its supposed to be a reverse of splinter, and not tan/water.

Next time, correct me and say that "oh no, that's supposed to be reverse splinter, but a slight error was made on it" rather than fight me tooth and nail on what correct tan/water camo patterns are.  ::)

Well, I finally give up on you. It has been posted by me that you should look up what reversed Splinter is, it has been posted by Ts4EVER that it had something to do with reversed Splinter and if I remember right I never ever said it was supposed to be Tan and Water. All I said is that it is not postwar BGS pattern and that somebody who knows what he is talking about should be able to see it.

But it looked more like postwar BGS than your fabled reverse splinter pattern. The latter mentioned pattern being about as rare as a Vampir scope in the war.

Next time base your renders on uniforms that aren't very rare and you won't have this problem in the future.

All you had to say was that it was supposed to be reverse splinter, and I would have immediately conceded THEN, instead of a few pages later when you finally say it.  You did not.  Instead, you ran through a debate on what tan/water is, while I continued to not understand how you couldn't see that that wasn't tan/water camo.

Next time, say that up front, and we don't have this kinda mess.

Paasky, I fear for your soul, it's become dark with sarcasm  ;)

And yes I have my priorities mixed up. I think it's more important that the models have the correct source of water in their water canteens. Despite to popular believe it was not hauled from the German Rheine during the Battle of the Bulge but obtained from a water source in Spa.

There's not enough resolution in the texture/render to make any claim which version of the camo pattern is displayed here. I see varying claims here about colors based on pictures taken under different circumstances (lighting, camera settings/properties, monitor calibration, color perception of the human brain etc) of items that even IRL vary greatly (weathering, storage condition, dye degradation, fabric tension, age and variation of the quality of cloth, dyes and chemicals used at the time of manufacture etc)...

Lighting is incredibly complex. Outdoor lighting is affected by things like weather conditions (cloudiness, air humidity filters light differently), occlusion and reflection of nearby objects and ground, even our sun's light emittance varies from time to time (relative size in sky due to time of year, even sunspots). Indoor lighting is greatly affected by the type of light source, the chemicals in the light bulb and type of material. The colors on the walls and the chemicals and texture of the paint.

Anyone attempting to make definitive statements about color is nuts and only deluding himself. Colors and even contrast are not absolute and change continuously. As a graphics artist, I work with colors all the time and have developed an appreciation for the way nature manipulates color (and it's observers!) as it pleases. When someone asks me what my favorite color is, I honest to god don't know what to answer; for this color changes all the time. I see this as a variation of the Heisenberg principle, color changes not between observations, but changes because it is being observed.

The problem is that the trousers of the middle guy in the first pic look a lot like Sumpftarn, a pattern that was used post war by the Bundeswehr. Von mudra thought a mistake was made by the devs. He thought it was supposed to be a WW2 era pattern and that the devs had somehow messed up the colouring. However, what really happened was that they added a very rare pattern that just ahppens to look like that postwar one on the screenshot and which vonMudra had not expected (because of how rare it was).

I don't have any numbers about how many were produced and used back then in WW2. But when you compare photo coverage(most of the times hard to figure out the exact pattern though) and availability today, it becomes obvious that it was used in big numbers and for this reason deserves a place in FH2.

That's because it really wasn't issued.  There's always a difference between issuance and production.  The reason there are so many originals of that is because they sat in factories, never got issued, and so came out of the war with lots of them saved for collectors.  Actual photos of it, I've only seen once or twice....

FH devs, thanks again for all the work you've done, and keep it up. Happy new year!

With the move to the announcements forums, any chance future new updates thread titles could change?  Before when you would see "Forgotten Hope News....." as the latest thread in General Discussion, you had a hint that there was a news update.  Now you have to open the forum to check.  Perhaps

December 26th : Forgotten Hope News Update
Christmas with Christoff: : Forgotten Hope News

Or something like that? 
I second this


damn you! i trough we had an update :P
DAM YOU NOW I THOUGHT we had a update!

I thought so also.. new thread titles please. :)

The strange thing is, it is an announcment, they wouldn't have made normally.

So it has nothing to do with Bulge, but maybe an early release.

If you people are annoyed about people posting into this thread, then how about no one posts into this thread after reading this?

Saves a lot of frustration from everybody.
