FH Modding: Bloody screen HUD effect released!




Hello friends of modding!

Today we want to you the new blood optics for FH 0.7 of the modders "TomPL" and "WoWo_Soldier" imagine. .

The new effect you will now get after each hit a bloodstain appears briefly on the screen. Then the stain disappears.
Then, when you're as good as dead, you still have a pale red border that draws attention to it.
If You were shot dead, then is a unique red spot on the screen, which will disappear after a short time.
If your installed once the Blood HUD patch for Forgotten Hope, then it will automatically already with FHSW as both mods like twins together hang. If you found the effect known? Yes, there are at Finn Wars for example. We find the reaction at FH succeeded.

The Battlegroup42 team reporting as promised with the second part of the model concept back.
And we from [HG] News Team are faster than the police allowed and report well as the first community about it.
In today's news vehicles are presented, which should help the battlefields more authentically represent the Battlegroup42 world.
The works come from the experienced modellers Gauranga and scratches.

The first model comes from scratches.
It is the newest / latest work, the Renault UE train. This unarmed vehicle was used in 1940 in Belgium and France as transporters and gun tractor . Although many of these vehicles were captured by the Wehrmacht, but only two ways to program this type of vehicle on the French side with Repair- / reload function for vehicles of their own troops, as well as a tractor for the French 47mm anti-tank gun in Battlegroup42 used .. So that the vehicle is on the Western Front Laffly S15TOE replaced, which was used only in the French colonies.




In the second bite is an unarmed tractor from the modeller Gauranga , which was used by the Wehrmacht.
This zugstarke half-track tractor Sdkfz.7 model as a support vehicle with Repair- / reload function, as well as tanks mountains, troop carriers, tractors for the gravity field howitzer 18 employed almost everywhere in the Wehrmacht.
The model was often wished from the active Battlegroup42 fan base, thus it was with or without hood on the roof to find his way in the model of the mod. Now the Farhzeug is in Battlegroup42 be. As a treat for all fans Battlegroup42, the modders have SargeSurfat (skin) and Sarge31FR (model) the model Sdkfz.7 to Italian license version Breda 61 rebuilt. These will be found on many maps there and replace unsuitable German equipment, which previously served as a stopgap.




Last but not least, thanks to Gauranga the American M3 half-track from the original game replaced by a private Battlegroup42 model. Sarge31FR took over the model and adapted it in various versions, such as the mortar carrier M21 , the self-propelled guns M16 , the T19 and M3GMC . The Sdkfz.4 / 1 turn is new, also known as Panzerwerfer 43 . It is the armored version of the half-track truck Opel mule , which in 1943 was used. The vehicle is equipped with ten pivotal 15cm launcher tubes for artillery rockets. It is now to be found on the maps of the second half of the war and be there accompanied by a version without the launcher, which secures the supply of ammunition - the Panzerwerfer Features a shooting performance of two salvos.




That's the second part of the presentation Battlegroup42 model. Rejoice forward to the third part of the series of presentations. Also there you can surprising yourself and exciting last-minute additions expect as next- so check back often for battlegroup42.de stop by, when it came to our news!

The map was also created by the mapper "Nanntekottai".
In this second night Map it comes to stop the advancing German troops transporter to be able to capture additional supply routes for themselves.
These are the Brit's armed forces tank available.
Skirmish is reminiscent of a jungle fight because the map is a large area covered by forest.
Tucked in between the supply lines of the British.

Hello friends of the modding!


Today, we report the "Desert Combat" mod mod "Super DC", which means you need to play super DC desert combat. The idea to Super DC to continue working the Modder has launched again "bbfplayer".On the article we have on the battlefieldsingleplay.com website: source

It writes "bbfplayer" that he could use the help of experienced modders, because he wants more vehicles and maps in Super DC hinzunfügen?


"Bbfplayer" would like to add:


-WW3RA (russian assault, BFV) t95 Omar, smerch...

-Nightfighters(BF1942) B2 bomber...

action bf(bf1942) atomic bomb effect...

-SILENT HEROES(bf1942) EU some tanks, tiger...

-BF2 (bf1942) china tanks, plan...

-FB42 (bf1942) some vehicles for russian and Caryl side

-OPK(BFV) german vehicles for EU side

-DC_UNAUTHORIZED (bf1942) bm21 standard mesh, some hellecopters, maps

-FH (bf1942) maps

Who of dares WINS (bf1942) SAS, specnaz, чечня skin, b52 bomber...

-Global front (bf1942) mi24 E, skins, maps...


According to own "bbfplayer" has been only a small part of the work. So far, he has only the permission of the experienced Modder "Apache Thunder" to take advantage of content. ("Apache Thunder" known by: DC series, BF242 redux, BF heroes 42,Mario Kart, radio Conroll cars, Ragdoll, flat wheels, rally) to name only a few projects from "Apache Thunder".

So if one looks the devs, old and new mod projects to, "bbfplayer" sets the stones in away? And get in contact, insofar as it is possible.

Kindly "bbfplayer" received permission to use FH content, but at the moment he has not before FH maps to Super to add DC.


In the below presented images "bbfplayer" has taken over the Russian skins from the mod "Who Dares Wins". Also can you now ammunition and devices drop, just like we know from BF 2 here. And you can still classically with the Medipack in the hand heal and give out ammunition. There are still the 5/10 seconds of explosive packs, busting themselves.


But looks even has to offer the mod already in the basic framework:



"bbfplayer" has to make warfare realism mod Super DC similar as 2 here seen by BF before a modern. A few weeks ago were added to the MOD, according to "bbfplayer", new weapons and vehicles, but still not all the participating groups and maps distributed.

For China, the specific handgun type95 added only this is there already in the Russian group. If anyone knows what modern weapons use the Chinese, can you tell like that? Maybe gabs thereof a statement in one of the BF 1942 mods?


Now comes the highlight for you. You can already now the Super DC beta test demo download, note that their desert combat 0.7 needed: download


Notice please that unfortunately only a torrent to the Super DC 2 download available is: download torrent


"Bbfplayer" would like to deliver the full credits yet.

That's it with the good news from the modding scene for today.

Look forward already to more FHSW custom map presentations that we are present here.
This fiction fantasy island map has been created by the Mapper "Xenanab".
He insists that no Funmap.
The island "Occean Town" kind of reminds fighting Midway, also Japanese and United States to the island. The map is of a fight around the mysterious town. Tanks, APC's, flight are bomber and PT boats available. This map uses the "CullRadius" mod of the Modder "eYe" and the revised "lightmaps" come from the Modder "Radiosmersh"!
This city invites you to discover hidden paths, finding alternative tactics and requires skilled capabilities with the represented type sense of space to cope... It is a sophisticated infantry-focused map!

You can conquer seven flags points.

Once again a great new custom map, with which this time Europeans Flash.
The Map Pack is just the hammer. Mapping at the highest level. Class work.
We stay tuned to FHSW.
The map comes from the FHSW Mappack published recently on the 30.01.2015 from Japan.
There the download to do this only in the last map presentation, as a little treat for you.

Dnamro tell us about his work on the BF 1942 AI Enhancement Mod: After many years and several requests, I have finally updated Realplayer AI enhancement mod for BF1942: BF 1942 AIE Mod Download

Copy the file to your hard drive, unzip it and then set it up in your Battlefield 1942\mods folder as mods\Realplayer.

not mods\Realplayer\Realplayer


I have combined Grenademan's AI enhancement mod with singleplayer support for all standard BF1942 maps.


I will do an installer when I get a chance. This way, it can be installed on other than windows systems.


If you want to disable targeting corsshairs, the files and instructions are in the readme.


This is mostly Grenademan's work from his AIE42 mod. He used Realplayer as the start of his mod and then went on from there. But, he left out the AI from multiplayer DICE maps that had been created by the BFSP community. So, I just combined his mod improvements with the AI support for the rest of the DICE maps. The previous version of Realplayer was a WIP that I had on my hard drive when Filefront dropped it. There were plenty of other mods that used the Realplayer improvements to include BF42, so I did not see a reason to clean it up and release a new version. I would just direct people to the other mods. However I when found AIE42 on my hard drive that is when it came to me to use his mod to update Realplayer. I have not heard from Grenademan in a long time, but I am sure he would like to know that his work is being continued on. The advantage of Realplayer over other mods is that it's a small mod for those that want to enjoy BF1942 with the best possible singleplayer support.

As far as adding support for other mods, that would involve some work integrating the changes without interfering with the existing mod functionality.

On the other hand any BF1942 maps can be added to mod just by extracting and repacking the map with the MDT tools to change this line in the map's menu\init.con file as:

game.setMapId "Realplayer"

Now, as far as possible future improvements, the subs and PT boats could be made to fire torpedoes. For another mod, I set up subs with deck guns and enabled the bots to use the subs. As long as I did not have them try to submerge the subs it worked fine and the bots could fire the torps. It's just a matter of having time to make the changes and considering that subs don't play a big role in the game, it did not seem like it was worth the effort.


Also, it would be good to make the maps from the expansion packs (Road to Rome and Secret Weapons) enabled for realplayer as part of the mod available as a separate download. They are no longer sold or supported by EA but can only be found in then BF1942 collection from a game resellers to include Amazon. Now that would be fun to be able to play all the expansion pack maps in Realplayer.

News of the 21st century, "What Even Is This Mod" (WEITM v1.5)!


Anarchy! Mayhem! Holy crap, look at the size of that turret! "What Even Is This Mod?" Is made by Mirage521. It teaches a very old dog new tricks. Cars will fly, The Force will be used, and that thing with the really big head will get flung across the map with the slightest touch. Oh, did I mention flying submarines, infinite ammo, and a custom soundtrack?

Download "WEITM v1.5" Mod: click here

NOTE: THIS IS THE ENTIRE INSTALLATION, WHICH IS MEANT TO RUN ON A STANDALONE BASIS. THAT IS WHY IT'S SO BIG. A readme file is included, which will guide you through the steps necessary to use this mod. Changes include some balance fixes, a few geometry modifications, a new sound effect (more will be added in the next update), a soundtrack composed entirely by me, a new intro, and a new main menu background video.

There is a movie of the "WEITM v1.5" Mod: WEITM v1.5 MOVIE
Mirage tell us:

To the people whose questions went unanswered: I'd kinda forgotten about this mod after its initial release, as I wasn't expecting anything big to come of it. Alas, that was not the case; I was recently contacted by Indies Crash E3 about the potential for it being brought to a booth at E3. As such, I re-opened this delicious can of worms and began working overtime on it. Changes include the following:

- A soundtrack that I made myself - A customized firing sound for the K98 rifles and the Blackmedal's horn - Reworked German and Allied assault rifles so Russia isn't ludicrously OP anymore *Note: ARs can no longer destroy tanks. - Reworked K98 and No.4 to have uniquely ridiculous performance traits - Added a self-made background video for the main menu - Changed a few geometries around for maximum stupidity - Reworked the MP18 into basically a Force lead-beam (with a complimentary Pez dispenser!)

More changes to come! V2 will (hopefully) feature a customized UI and new loading screens!
