(Modding) Forgotten Hope 2 Secret Weapon Minimod
« on: 14-09-2012, 10:09:32 »
I've just started doing my research into developing a bunch of maps, weapons, and vehicles that never had the chance to see full use or never seemed to work out. I have finally received permission from the FHSW team to use this name as well as any files that I may need to develop such a mod. If anyone is interested in helping just contact me since this is the first mod I've ever actually put this much work into. I'd love to one day see a Maus tank causing rampage on Allied tanks or the Messerschmitt Me-262 tearing through the skies of Europe.

Well its nice to hear from someone else who's interested in seeing the secret side to World War II. My only hopes from this minimod is that its done right and only helps to get even more attention for Forgotten Hope 2.

I'm still working towards that but I'm working on an Operation Sea lion map as well as a remade Alpenfrestrung map.

someone at Fht already ported Alpenfestung with Me262, tbh its not as fun in Fh2 as it was in fh1. Also I seem to recall a Sea lion map inspired by the brit sitcom Dad's army.

oh geez this kinda puts a damper on my plans. I thought a Operation Sea Lion map would do good for a vehicle like the Messerschmitt Me-323 Gigant to deploy a German attack force. Well if anyone has suggestions for what kind of maps to develop i'll gladly take them into consideration as long as it fits into the mindset of Secret Weapons. Also if anyone wishes to assist me in the mod, I could sure use the help.

well im still updating alpenfestung to the newest fh2 patch. when its complete i will probably release a public version which you are free to use for your mod. although psykfallet and a few others may have not liked the map, there are plenty of players that did enjoy the map in fh2.

Me-262 was not a "secret weapon". it was introduced in 1944 and saw quite a bit of regular combat.
Was in FH1 and may be added to FH2 someday (if we have more late 44 early 45 maps).

I believe they put the Me-262 into one of the WaW tournament maps or something like it. I also only mentioned the Me-262 because it was an experimental technology and the most advanced aircraft in the German arsenal at the time.

Does anyone know if they've created a map based on Arnhem or Operation Crossbow?

I've updated waw alpenfestung version: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0By17mLYB7EvqMzdPMWgtWGZfclU, but you need to have waw minimod installed.

What about Arnhem, somebody from waw ported it from fh1.

P.S. Updated Arnhem for 2.45 (originally made by Frodo), also requires waw minimod:

Started work on creating the Goliath Tracked Mine. I already know its not a secret weapon but I think it would make an interesting addition to tank combat and ambushes.
