Well hell no!

And tonight you were 55 in total. I like to be free in FH2, i dont use VOIP, i enjoy the ambience of the game.

But i'm really worried about the ending of FH2... Sooner or (hopefully) later it'll pass away. And i wonder if any game will be as passionate, as accurate, as epic than our dear FH2...

I think maybe Postscriptum but hey... That's not the topic huh?!

Good evening everyone!

I try for a long time now to replace the mg42 sound.

I did it for other MG or SMG but this one is Killing me!

I always have looping issue no matter what timing set for the cue points and regions.

I tried 0.926 (same value than original wav from the mod), 0.897, 0.800...

Each try includes to modify the pattern and I'm getting exhausted and hopeless with this MG42...

So can someone explains me where i'm wrong?

My file is 44100hz, 16bits, stereo (1p) and mono (3p) and my region is set from 0:00.000 to 0:00.926 at the moment but doesn't work.

Please help!

For my part, I think there are some really interesting maps in the CMP, such as Argentan, Battle of Salerno better in PUSH mod though), Bloody Gulch (better with Push), Bloody Marsh (Better with push), Brecourt Manor (better in PUSH mod), Etna line ( with tickets problem resolved when all flags captured by US), Orsholtz Switch, Sidi Muftah and Ste-Mère-Eglise. On the Pacific theater I like Tarawa even if there's the problem of balanced gameplay.

I don't really like the FH1 conversion even if it's fun to have 50 planes in the air in a gigantic mess (Bombing the Reich and Dover one) because I think the main difference between FH1 and FH2 is the realistic approach of mapping. FH1s'maps are fun and somewhat representative of the region of the battle, FH2 are built to be accurate even if the scale is not 1:1. And I really really appreciate that work from the devs.

Finally, I said there was the balanced gameplay problem on Tarawa, let me explain my thought.
In WW2, there were hundreds of soldiers and vehicles at the same time on the battlefield (especially during a landing operation) the defenders were entrenched and often less in number than the invaders. In FH2, and every games for now, the game model is asking you to have 50 against 50 or 32 against 32, there is no place for assymetrical warfares and that's the problem with Tarawa in my opinion. I played it 6 times I think, 4 times the US captured the HQ (last flag far right) by a SL piloting a warbird that intentionally crash landed to be able to bypass the coastal defenses, the other 2 times were actual squads heroicaly made their way at the pier or at the southwestern emplacement.

Overall, CMP is adding to the game, new theater, new enjoyable maps but often are less detailed, less polished (but hey... I tried twice to make a map with BF editor, I know it's hard, and long) but mainly, I don't really like the FH1 conversions maps and I would appreciate the conversion of most of the maps to the PUSH mode and to be balanced without interfering with realism (Tarawa is really well done, a nice job!)

Anyway, thank you to the community to let us enjoy these maps and to add content!

BIG THUMB UP

Good evening!

I wanted to open a discussion and have the answer of the devs about tanks and vehicles in general.

I have to say at first that the amount of work is just giant and it's the only game I keep playing because no other game or mod put me in the famous WW2 battles and in a degree of realism for landscapes and material used never seen elsewhere.

But due to the engine of BF2 (i'm pretty sure this is its reason) I feel like vehicles no have the weight they're supposed to have, their handling doesn't seem right.


Let me explain myself,

First example, the bren carrier, it weights 3.75 tons (Wikipédia) but in game, it feels like a car and breaks itself very easily when taking a slope too rapidly and when driving by the craters...

Second one, the Stuart ( works with any tanks really), 14 tons (average), accelerates like a race horse and performing wheelings when getting uphill or any slope.

I think you get the idea of what I want to say, is there any chance to make all ground vehicles HEAVIER so that you really feel its weight and its corresponding handling, in order to have most of the time the tracks or wheels on the dirt and not in the sky?

I appreciate any answer and opinion about it!

Again, thanks to the devs for having created an enjoyable WW2 experience!

Hello everyone!

I always loved the tracks during loading times.

I thought maybe a Soundtrack would be cool.

Even with other WW2 themed songs or music tracks like the Community Map Pack.

I recognized most of them, I have them on Deezer but not in those versions, especially BF1942's theme.

And maybe why not opening a Community Soundtrack? And adding suggestions and additions from the players too!

It's 18:31, time to load the game and to enjoy both loading and gameplay!

Hi there!

I downloaded it and that's a common Reshade install, you just have to drag the content of the rar file into your bf2 main installation location (where bf2.exe is) and it may work also if you put it in bf2/mods/fh2 but only if Forgottenhope2.exe is there, i'm not sure right now.

Reshade, ENB, Mastereffect are MP ready, no problem with that!

I got trouble with Reshade lately, I posted a thread about it on the forum but after some times, my game didn't want to start at all, only black screen with no option but to reboot...

I'll give it a try though, i've got ENB working but I don't like the settings, not as effective as Reshade and Mastereffect.

Good luck and enjoy if it works!

Hello everyone!

One simple question, is there a way to get ENB working again? Seems like an update made ENB crashing FH2 when launched.

Thanks again!

Thanks for answering that quick TS4Ever and Matt!

I got it for the third person animations. And good news about the passenger thing, no more soldier crouching on the back of the tank, is that so?

And a question for you Matt, do you plan to model infantry units too?

I already love your vehicles stuff and I wrote it in your thread.
