I like those flowers Murkz, and that Tiger skin looks familiar.

Thank you Zee

We added a new member to the test last as we want a few more European time zone guys for stress testing.

It is surprising when someone new comes in, how much they point out that we have done and now take for granted.

One thing that we have more or less now taken for granted, which was expressed is the fast loading times for the game and our new guy was getting 60 70 fps per second with a lot of dead tanks on the map!

Having been lucky enough to see this Mod (Thank you guys!) in development, all I can say is wow! The final effect is not so much a mod as a re-birth. The graphics are enhanced with awsome new skins and lighting effects while at the same time fps has been improved beyond what is believable, I saw at least a 3 fold increase over mmp5 at the same time as being able to max all my graphics settings. The tiger drives like, well a tiger (serious sources have been consulted) and the sounds are fantastic, you find yourself turning off your engine from time to time to listen for the tell tale crash of falling trees of your enemy ambushing you through the woods! There is so much work going into this, from game play and models to maps, it's a mega mod. Testing and development continues but I can see this having everyone trying to find that old copy of TvT again. It will in my humble opinion, make this game the definitive WWII mp tank sim.

Thank you Q for the very kind words. The PzU team has been hard at work to make it the best MP WW2 tank sim we can.

More excellent Snorri work.

Here is proof of ownership of the dunkelgelb skin as all snorri's own hard work. We respect you're work ZW and would never take what you have done without seeking permission first. As I am sure you will do us the same courtesy when we release.

Oh no, murkz I was not making an accusation , I was genuine in my compliment. As for snorri's work it looks top notch. I would love to have
him do some skins for Project ZeeWolf. Old Zzzz is more of a "snorrer" when it comes to texture map creation.

They do apply, if it's a russian tank firing, lol. I never realized the 88mm was so much rubbish, I wonder why the Tiger was the most feared tank of the war?!

Snorri's re-worked smoke effects and T34 skin.

Default Kudos!

Wow!You guys are defintely making worthwhile changes to the MMP.

The smoke effect in the stock game are indeed understated.A tank smokes for 5 minutes tops and then no more.

Any changes contemplated to the sound of the guns and exposions?

The thumping noise the 88 mm does when fired seems not terribly reaslistic?As well the explosions on the ground are a bit timid....

Hi frinik,

We have indeed edited many sounds for TvsT, including the main gun sounds for the Tiger and T34
