I replaced the Kubel jeep in front of the HQ in level "Cannibal" with a
Mercedes. This is more realistic, because the Officers usually did not
use Jeeps.

The second Kubel jeep cannot be replaced due to an unknown Bug.
It's the car near the officer who is talking with an SS-guard. This car
is also not accessable and therefore not drivalbe... :(

Thanks for Sgt. Schnitzel for this idea.

Level Wintercold
 

In level Wintercold there is now a drivable Mercedes in front of the
building with the first marked Officer.

The other one, which were in front of the other building, is not
accessable due to the fact, that it uses an other model without
animations. Sorry ;)

Thanks again to Sgt.Schnitzel

In Level "8 Snipers" I added one rifle magazin to the inventory of each of
the eight snipers. See pic #1

In the same level I added a drivable motor cylce in front of the house
near the train station (where some soldiers are sleeping). See pic #2

Thnaks to Sgt. Schnitzel for this ideas. So I implemented everything
which was possible...

@ Sgt. Schnitzel: any new ideas?

Courier
 

Am I wrong, or is the courier in level "Wintercold" wearing an soviet uniform?
At least he has got a red star at his hat.

If it's really an uniform, I had to change his clothes, because it is not
logical that he enters a occupied city in a enemie's uniform.

So what's right?

Also, soldiers with rifles only carry like one or two magazines. give them at least four or six. Thereis wayyyyy too little rifle ammunition of the maps. Its not like as if the rifle is that powerfull of a weapon anyways. Its so damned inaccurate.

I had a red crosshair over an enemy's soldier's head and when I fired it didn't hit him, I mean WTF? If its red hes dead. Yeah thats another problem, rifles need to be more accurate in this game.

Even sniper files can directly hit an enemy without going into aim mode! It makes the regular rifles useless.

Try to fix that If u can.

Well I don't think so. The accurancy is ok and realistic. But moving targets
are hard to hit. That's normal. Also all weapons without silencer are
useless, due to they are too loud, and every soldier nearby will run to
your position.

Well as I said, I don't think so.

Yeah that's right.

Well even if I wan't I cannot fix that, because I do not know where this
attributes are stored.

Thanks anyway ;)

It might be considered realistic but its think of stupid because you can never be sure of when you will hit an enemy or when you will not hit an enemy.

I went into prone mode with a K98 then went into aim mode and aimed for the head of an enemy guard while he was walking and unaware and it didn't hit him when I fired. This is frustrating, there was no way I could know whether it will him or not. This leads to trial and error gameplay which is not good. And we are talking about a very close range here. A sniper rifle can hit an enemy without using the scope from a very long distance. This renders regular rifles useless. Regular rifles need to be better in closer range combat. They need to have 100% accuracy in aim mode. Otherwise what the point of going into aim mode if it doesn't help you?

Sometimes you have to sacrifice realism in a few areas.



Also I don't think the jeep is necessary next to the three guards besides the church because the BMW R-75 motorcycle actually has three seats.

But maybe You should replace one of the trucks besides the command office in Paycheck with a jeep. I'm not sure.

One more thing since Paycheck and Winter front take place in occupied territory, Maybe it would be wise to place a Zis-5 somewhere, becuase it could of been captured by the Germans from the Soviet army. I'm going to try to replace the Soviet emblem with a German one on the Zis-5. I'm still experimenting with different paint programs.

Hmm, I will investigate the weapons.shadvs for such option.

Yeah, you're right.

Well I don't think that three soldiers used one single motor bike. It was
unneccessary that one soldiers was seated behind another.


Perhaps. I will think about it.


I could send you the dds converter so can use your favorite image
editor. By the way interessting idea. I will think about it.


Thanks
AHO

PS: How about the courier is he wearing an uniform or not? :o

Its really up to you though, if you think the jeep is suitable in that place then OK.

I just installed Gimpshop. I'm going to try to paste the German cross (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Balkenkreuz.svg) over the red star. It does not support .dds though. I can find a .dds converter don't worry.

[/QUOTE]

I think its similar to the soviet uniform. I'm not sure if it is an actual uniform.

Well I think the Kubel is suitable and IMHO more comfortable to drive.
Second think there is no Kubel in the whole level.
The pic looks really .... or let's just say funny instead ;)


OK, you know better.


Hmm...
