So today I decided to play a bit of bf42 to remember some goods times and downloaded a few new mods. Wow! I was amazed at some of the stuff done with the bf42 engine! Anyways heres the mods I've got for Bf42, I reccomend checking some out...
1.Desert Combat, yeah pretty fun, the helicopters were pretty interesting to me. Definitely fun to play
2.Interstate 82, love driving and racing while shooting hi caliber guns and laying down mines behind your car? This mod has it, fun mod for sure! One of the things I LOVE about it is the fact that you can go 3rd person and see your self flipping people off when your use a particular weapon
3.DC Realism (Desert combat but realistic)
4.Eve of Destruction, albeit some lighting wasn't good but this mod is WAY better than vanilla BFv. Some of the music is pretty good too, im starting to want to start up EoD and fly a huey now....
5.Fragfield, Made by Russian Comrade, Pretty fun lil mod definitely lots of CQB. Although the only drawback is not enough maps! (8 are included)
6.Untold War Stories, really fun mod, comes with 4 maps but definitely fun. HUGE tank battles for sure on one particular map!
7. Battle Field Anthology, basically takes BF42 BFRR and BFSWW2 puts them together and then tweaks weapons to be more realistic (I REALLY Reccomend playing Midway on this one. Pilots should definitely gget this one!)
8. Last but Most Definitely not least is Experience WW2, Fun mod similar to that of FH (I've never played FH 1 or 2 [ :'( Due to computer problems and getting a 2 year old computer that hasn't seen the light of day back to working order But from the screenshots of both ive seen it is quite fun, Im definitely lovin the sounds of the K98,No.4,and M1903. The mod is quite excellent and charging Juno is amazingly fun. Definitely reccomended!
What are some BF42 Mods experiences you've had or mods that you'd like to suggest?
-
BF1918 ftw! we are gonna release 3.1 soon.... which will bring massive sea battles!
-
I've never played FH 1 or 2 :'(
Um.
1. Why are you here??
2. Get them!
I also recommend SilentHeroes (http://www.silentheroes.se/). Modern warfare between Sweden and Norway. There is a regular community event every Tuesday with around 20 players.
And Galactic Conquest, epic Star Wars battles.
-
I'd suggest the Pirates Mod, if it was ever played anymore. I keep it installed because occasionally a server gets occupied. It used to be really popular and was in my opinion, the funnest BF1942 mod.

Silent Heroes is truly a great mod, IMO the best Bf1942 mod out there, they've done an amazing job. To bad it's hardly played...
Also, try out the Transformers 1942 mod, it's actually fun!

Bf1918, awesome mod. If I could turn back time like Cheer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEszTzdUMcY), Id convince fh1 to include this mod in to the Mod along time ago. Epic maps, great art and well, the best WW1 game/mod of its time.
Norwegian Resistance..same here.. with a touch up on the art-side, this also should have been in the Fh1 build.
Fhsw, well to continue, this add-on enhances Fh1 on all levels, and by all means could just have been pasted in to the fh1 build and shipped off as FH 0.75, no maps though but the content they edited or added is pretty epic. (unless they at the time had decided to close fh1 *scheisse*)
Galactic Conquest was also a mod I really enjoyed...sadly it felt like they stopped too early on it, the final mod never felt completed to me... had some good times in it though..
FinnWars is a mod I never really played online, but I still like its concept and think they should get their asses out of the sauna and make fh2 material for it, so we could experience it in the current engine (*slaps finnish modders*) 8)
-
FinnWars is producing their own game on the same concept.

I think it's halted because of financial trouble. :/

Was to be expected lol.

I played most every mod (Literally, anything that was released as a mod I played) for BF42 but I'd have to say the ones I played the most were:
1. FH1
2. BF Pirates
3. Desert Combat Final
I regret not sticking to BF1918, but when I had it for some reason I couldn't find people playing...

Same, then a clan elder banned it from our server because he felt it was too realistic, i.e. wait for arty to stop everyone walk forward and get shot. I loved it though - BF2 engine could provide much better terrain, and a sprint button, yay!

They started working on a BF2 version. But for some reason it got cancelled :(

It looks very very good

I remeber playing that - it was essentially a great little mod, but a bit buggy, then it was only just passed an alpha version when they released, some nice air battles - I did not know they canned the project, shame to see such an effort go to waste.
I don't know if you have ever played this (if you are interested in WW1 flight)
RISE OF FLIGHT
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nr97zNLFg1s < trailer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9Cj_cper5Q < fokker dogfight
http://riseofflight.com/tryrof.aspx < demo
It's a really nice WW1 flight sim albeit a little boring trying to latch onto a target who is throwing their plane about like a drunken whore, to be honest I had to put it away for a while it made me feel sea sick - nauseous, but that's just personal ailment

Thanks a lot for that natty! I will HAVE to join!

Man, I forgot how many mods there were for 42. Not quite halflife standards, but definitely getting up there.
I played tons of EoD, Silent Heroes, Desert Combat, and Galactic Conquest, all fantastic mods.
I also tried out alot of smaller esoteric ones that didnt last too long, but had cool ideas and worked well in the engine. I can't recall any of their names, so ill just give descriptions.
-Warhammer 40k mod. Play as space marines. Drive around in predator tanks with twin-linked lascannons. Cool.
-Post Apocalypse mod. Shoot people with rebar launchers and sawed-off shotguns. Had some awesome weapon and vehicle ideas. Totally mad max.
-Transformers mod. Pick a class. Use class to transform into vehicle (soldier=tank, scout=jeep, ect ect). Awesome.
-Medieval mod. Use swords, spears, and arrows. "drive" catapults and horses. This is the mod fh1 got the idea of "shotgun" melee weapons from. So blame them for uber-knives.
-
Ah, I feel so bad when you all praise BF1918. I tried it a few times back in the days but the lack of players never made it possible for me to see it :-\
-
Sengoku - was an awesome samurai mod with just freaking bizarre inventions done by modders. Never got that far but it was still tons of fun!
-
BF1942 has great mods.
Imo, FHSW is at the top of my list. Its soooooo epic. I love the sounds, effects, and gameplay has been tweaked too.
Norwegian resistance, FHT tried to save them by creating a Campaign. I joined them and i remember my very first battle. Attack on a island, whit a German Cruiser. It was epic, my company was pinned down by the angry norwegians and their coastal guns, and then from nowhere, at your right, the Cruiser, firing its overubersized guns at the coastal betterys.
So much fun.
-
Another mod that was a big hit at LAN party's all over Sweden and instant became a bit of a cult mod here was Silent Heroes.
Problem often was nobody here wanted to play as the Norwegians ;)
Anyhow, that was a great mod. Very well-made and I know still, a lot of people who get together and play it once every week.
-
Torenico, you mean this map?
(http://www.forgottenhonor.com/hoststuff/dutch/DrobakLoadingScreen.jpg)
It was fun indeed! as long as the axis didn't run the ship (the Blücher) on to the ground, which in bf42 causes horrendous lag and chaos... but it was an evil ship. :D

That one yeah!
The campaign name was Twilight, or something wonder what happend whit it.
-
Anybody play Battlegroup 42? http://www.battlegroup42.de/
They are also focusing on WW2 related stuff like FH and XWW2. It seems they have several unique vehicles that hasn't made it into either FH or XWW2 and also some 'forgotten' maps.
-
Damn i miss FinnWars and Galatic conquest they were so awesome and different. The player count was also totally different league what BF2 mods have.
-
Ah, Galactic Conquest. I feel so bad for totally missing that mod out. Never even tried it.
-
Apparently you missed a lot of good mods :P
