add into shortcut
+fullscreen 0 +szx 1280 +szy 800

and replace 1280 and 800 with desired resolution of window

[J.F.Leusch69]

just a note about the prefix, you should rather use the country shortcut, like germany GER or great britain GB etc

[Hulabi]

run game in windowed mode, it will give you error message instead of plain CTD most of the time

CTD at 14% map loaded, no error message of any kind, when i tried in windowed mode.

EDIT: I changed Kozelsk back to default rus - chechen and changed all russian player models to pr_ru_soldier1 (just so see if theres any change) and now the map loads 100% but i get this error message:

just a note about the prefix, you should rather use the country shortcut, like germany GER or great britain GB etc

Ill try to keep that on mind from now on

EDIT: I quess ill just get back to modelling / texturing stuff and figure out a way to get it ingame later on.

Nice idea, but you're obviously not doing this alone..you need a team.

The highest priority would be RK-62 and RK-95. FDF doesn't have too many vehicles anyway and the focus is in infantry so infantry stuff should be the highest priority.

Anyway, Finland as OPFOR is a good idea since more OPFOR factions are needed and we are going to have enough Afghanistan based maps anyway. Russia would of course be good opponent on some maps ( ) and Norway might be another good opponent.

If we really can get some people to do this, I might be able to make a map.

Just gathered 100's of ref pics of RK 62s and 95's gonna start modelling today. And yeah, OPFOR isn't such a bad idea.

Change content of this file as well so it will load the fdf faction:

levels/kozelsk/server.zip/serverarchives.con

[H.sta]

If you do decide to make Finland OpFor, i suggest we start working together, we can offer some help on making a PR with finnish forces, possibly incorperating FDF in the same build we are working on now and then possibly sparking new interest in the mapping section, where russian style buildings allready are in PR, making it alot easier. (Thats if it is the same style of houses as in northern Finland)

allthough i would have to talk to Pleym to see if all that is possible

Design plan updated on the first post.

Also a very minor retexture:

I got a friend making a map, He says he'd love to make it for FDF.
It would be Russia vs FDF, 4km, Sorta close to Silent Eagle but more mountainous and with less darker sky and fog.

He'd gladly show a minimap if you want to see.

[Hulabi]

I would love to see the minimap and hear more of this map

[Element-X_IV]

I would love to see the minimap and hear more of this map

I uploaded the new minimap a two weeks ago, can't find the link or the file.
I will just show a minimap from a month ago.



It's about 65% finished, most of the areas have overgrowth set.
I work on both this and Panjwai for CF.
Village area in the center and several more smaller villages around and a small swamp area.
The road in the NW corner was changed into a tunnel for traffic.
The SW corner will be changed into airfield for FDF if you guys want it.
I will try getting a new minimap by tomorrow.
I can give screenies from editor right now though.

[Not_able_to_kill]

Remember that the minimap above is old and the new one we have right now is much much more detailed

[Amok@ndy]

create and Topic with screens in the Community Map section and you will get some feedback

[Hulabi]

Some editor screenies would be nice, can't really say much from the minimap

The minimap isn't that updated though, i'm still using old lightmaps.

[Hulabi]

Map looks real good Would love to have this map for FDF.

Created a google document for translating the sound files from English to Finnish. Made it publicly editable and posted the link on a finnish forum. In 35 minutes it was +80% done already

Here's the link for the publicly non-editable spreadsheet: Click

EDIT: People most likely don't understand a word of that, but atleast it shows that we're getting stuff done

New subforum in pelitutka.fi opened for the development of the Finnish Defence Forces faction: http://www.pelitutka.fi/v4/keskustelu/v ... m.php?f=47

Regarding NLAW, its red so its not done yet... but the NLAW is in Project Reality used by royal armed forces, HAT kit, for your information

[eztonia]
