It turned out expensive but ZeeWolf installs mods:salute:
The file is compressed, but the box is 1.8GB

Found an original edition on ebay, installed it on my laptop.
Windows 7 + SP1, 64 bit.
Installed ok, including DirectX9.

Worked straight away, no editing necessary, including video's.

So I guess the video and audio card of my laptop are compatible, even though my laptop is only one year old.
Great relief though.

I also got SBPro, but on every shooting tutorial I get shot well within like 20 seconds.
Can't the enemy be disabled from shooting so I can get at least a feel of how the tank drives and how I can get a grip on the keys?

I also get killed constantly in TvT, but at least I get to drive and shoot, and as the missions do not start facing the enmey at 1000 mtrs I can practice views and key combinations.

So SBpro maybe more realistic, but in TvT I can make hours!

TvT does show op on ebay now and then, so there are opportunities!

cheers
Rutger

[Chucky]

Rutger,someone else complained on another forum that in the SB Pro tutorials they get shot at.

From Ssnake (SB Pro guru) If you're not using version 2.640, you should at least apply update 2.552 which can also be found on our website as a free download (http://www.esimgames.com/Downloads.htm) (please check the associated release notes (http://www.esimgames.com/downloads/SBProPE_2-552_Release_Notes.pdf) before installing).

Yes, your right. The ISU 122 and 152 is on the list but before that the
ISU-II will come first. Both playable and AI are in the works.
The 1600m is the maximum distance the sound files can obtain. To add more
would take mimicking the commanders voice - thus a big problem.

As for the install that is correct 2011 Members. But you could drop
number 4 it's in the January Update. Anymore questions on install just e-mail me.:salute:

keep this manageable or I could get overwhelmed - easily. :yep:

I pulled the trigger on this mod earlier today.

Been following the posts for awhile now and am very impressed with what I've seen.

TvT is one of my "older" sims I kept coming back to, especially after having installed the Christmas gift. Looking forward to enjoying your work ZeeWolf.

Hey ZW, nice work. I have two gtx 470's on sli and I notice that this game is only using one GPU. What gives? Is there a program or setting I have to employ to get TvT to use both Gpu's? My SLI works for all other games, btw. Thanks.

[ZeeWolf]

Thanks CZARNY_PLone, woofiedog, Jochem :salute:

And yes, LC, all Panther versions (D, A, G) will be playable. The interior for
the Panther and King Tiger is proving no quick easy task, but it has to be
done and done to "Die Qualität des Führers" :up:

Also welcome aboard plug_nickel and saltjunkie :DL

As for the SLI question; I do not know for sure about the SLI. But I would
sure like to have feed back from guys that do. I've learned an impressive
amount about T34 vs Tiger in the last three years, but not everything.
I was wondering about nHancer. It has the ability to turn on the SLI feature
for a created T34vsTiger profile, have you given that a try?

Here's a link: http://nhancer.com/?dat=d_sli

I'm having a very perplexing problem with TvT/ZeeWolf crashing.

I have zero problems running original TvT under W7_64 Ult.

I have zero problems running TvT with the "Christmas Mod" installed.

I have, initially, zero problems running TvT with Foundation/Jan 2012 Update. I can access all single missions and the campaign. Frame rates are good,etc.

The problem starts after I've exited the game and then go back to restart. Missions and campaign CTD.

Event shows an error: 0xc0000005;
TvT.exe relating to controls.dll

To play it safe, I've run diagnostics on memory, on-board sound and hd with no problems exhibited.

I've also tried the NT_Core 4gb patch with various compatibility modes and the same problem and error happens only after I restart the game.

I've never encountered this type of problem and since it seems to revolve around the "controls.dll" file, I'm at a loss at this time. I've even gone so far as to save the "controls.dll" before and after the crashes to open and compare them and don't see any difference.

Any and all assistance would be appreciated. I'm running out of straws to grasp.

Hey again. Thanks for the nhancer suggestion; unfortunatley, support of nhancer stopped around last May and no current nvidia drivers support it or visa versa. Do you know of any other apps that can force SLI in T vs T? I was reading that if a game isn't coded for sli, you can't force it...is this game SLI capable, or in the least able to force SLI rendering? Thanks agian.

Well saltjunkie you are probably more knowledgeable about SLI then I am.
I was sure (from memory)the nHancer program had a SLI enabling feature that
you could use to create a custom profile. But unfortunately nHancer I guess
couldn't keep up with the technology. It must be said that I never had an
SLI system and I think also T34 vs Tiger I know for sure only can use one
CPU. However, if you can do a search and see if you can find anything that
will help create a custom SLI profile, please keep us informed.

No, the cache folder content is deleted and resupplied with a fresh set
of files when you re-start the game. But German mission five "Holding
Hill 500" still uses the default map. and has a problem when replaying
the mission. :up:

Welcome aboard Newton, :DL
T34 vs Tiger with my mods and addons is very cpu and gpu intensive. This
is primarily due to the inability of the game engine to use multiple CPUs. Only
one CPU core can be used. This has been an issue since the beginning of Project ZeeWolf.
Your machine is on the low end and would be hard pressed
to achieve fps above 14- 18.

ZeeWolf

[Rutger]

Maybe I'm too impatient or not sneaky enough.
What are the best tactics for this one?
I actually get head aches from getting shot after having killed 5 to 7 tanks :wah: , must have tried way way over a hundred times.
I position myself behind the burning shed which gives me two easy kills on the two T34's driving by on the road chasing the German trucks.
I used to wait often behind that shed and try and take out the three T34's that come from behind the treelined ridge on slightly the left, of which two kills are usually tops best score, but when I'd run way up the hills on the far left I usually do get crippled or killed. When I skip the shooting of those three, I can make it behind the hills and peek around and get sneaky shots, sometimes even shooting with blinded gunner and only just visual from the captain on the cupola, using trees and captain's view of impact to aim indirectly. That's hard and costly on ammo though.
I don't want a cheat, I just want to have some simple advice.
I guess I should go on with them sneak attacks, as it sounds the most logical, but hey, maybe I can learn something :03:

cheers,
Rutger

Assuming you are talking about German mission 7 "Intercepting the Enemy".

1.) Drive your Tiger straight ahead until you just clear the first clump of
trees on your right and stop.
2.)Position yourself at that point where you have a clear view of the road
as it crests the hill and a sweeping view to your right about 30-40 degrees.
3.)The main attack will come from the right. Make sure you kill all those t34s,
Su85s first. Then the Su85s and t34s directly in front of you that come out
of the tree line. The sun is directly in your sight so be very careful.
4.)Now the left side assault my require you to reposition your Tiger before
they see you. With your right side clear you can go on the attack.

A Tip:Set your sights on the first tanks that crest the hill on the road.
They are the t34-76s. Then you can shoot high or low accordingly.
It is vital to acquire a six sense when it come to distance gagging.

[Short Final]

As a new member I`ve wriiten a short review of Project Zeewolf using Windows 7 64.
Project Zeewolf January update.

THE GOOD
There has been a huge amount of work and fixes over the original. All six vanilla missions have been reworked with an additional 2 missions, then there`s four Project Zeewolf missions and the Winter campaign has two.
The game looks and feels great. The overall draw distance is quite impessive, though grass and the odd tree popping can be noticed. Control of the tank is fairly simple. I find the missions quite challenging, big, replayable and plenty of room to move.
The Project Zeewolf missions look to go even further giving you the feeling that you`re involved in a massive assault.

THE NOT SO GOOD
The game suffers from a runtime error after playing around three missions . More than half the missions get the floating tank problem after one playthough needing you to restart the game (this is being looked into).
The control settings do not save and will be required to be re-entered whenever you start the game.
With an I-7 975 (4ghz) and a gtx580, frame rates would plummet to 7-23 fps on the Zeewolf and Winter missions, which I found unplayable. Reducing all settings from max to min made no difference (incl res change). CPU showed 2 cores working (20%-40%) and the gpu at around 50%.

There could be more information on the website, and it could be mentioned that Zeewolf will contact you promptly via email once you donate. Was hesitant in joining myself because of this. And I could only find one short vid.
Overall, I`m still glad I got this, just for the reworked vanilla missions and fixes. Best WW2 tank sim I`ve played since Panzer Elite.

That looks like something I've tried on quite a few occasions, it's the quick start suicide version of this battle, I do it when diner is about to be served but want some shooting.
I'll keep on with the sneak attacks, as they do keep me in the game much longer, and yesterday the last two remaining enemies got me because I got sloppy.

On a side note, anyone familiar with Kurowski Panzer Aces? Bought'em on ebay, haven't arrived yet, curious how they are rated as for both entertainment and accuracy in representing the way it happened back then.

Happy eastern to all,

Howdy Rutger,
I've previously read Panzers in the mud and I'm reading PA right now, I like em. I'm stuck on Intercepting the Enemy. I was having trouble with Attack on Beskudnikovo before that. Finally made it thru to Occupying Simashkovo which I completed first try after finishing AonB. Got to get my hands, eyes and brain working together

:woot::D:rock:

12 kills Victory at last (after a 100+ defeats :wah:) So much for an ace.
Hid behind the burning shed, front facing to the left, gun to the rear,about 4-5 oclock. Killed the two recce tanks coming down the road when the just passed the little bush that has a light German tank hiding in it. Move a couple feet forward to remain hidden from the tanks that will come down the same road, but enough to the left to see the three tanks that will show up on the left side of the bushed hill on the immediate left of said road. Kill them, race up to the bald hills and hide behind them. From then on its sneak attacks from behind summits, a few of them blind shooting with commander able to see impact only just and gunner not at all.
I was hit at both tracks and near the turret, but with carefull throttling nothing broke. Guess I was lucky, now I should do it another ten times to show progress. Gungho attacks I found suicidal.
By the way, I never use auto driver or auto commander or auto gunner. I don't know if it is sporty to do so, or if other players use it.

Yes Panzer in the Mud, I looked up some reviews, they are good, I think better than the reviews of Panzer Aces.

Hello guys,

I was just wondering if anybody would like to play with me Multipayer - MMP5 mod, I have created a server for 15-players on GameRanger and Iam waiting for anybody who would like to practice and so on.

MMP5 is free multiplayer mod with newer skins, diff versions of Tiger and better graphics, similar to Zeewolfs, but MP only.

Iam waiting for anybody and would be very happy if we can play together or against :)

Cheers

I sometimes consider it, never done it before. Will consider, but wary of all the software installed on computers, and ending up with ever slower working computer with increasing number of changes that cause trouble to other software on same computer.

[Short Final]

Thanks Zeewolf for the April update.
I would very much like to make changes to my review regarding better performance and the floating tank issue, though I found no difference to these upon testing the last German mission and the first Zeewolf mission I`m sorry to report.
3 is the default profile settings on Nvidia card for Max prerendered frames. Antialaising Transparency has been changed to Multisampling in the T34 vs Tiger profile.

Kameraden,
I am working on the Playable Tiger models and will have a new download
that will have both mid and early playable Tigers. This is the fix also for the
Early Tigers Turret animation issue. The problem is all the Early Tigers animations
became offset by a export glitch that reduced the time length,
and therefore is the caused of the turret problem. A last minute thing I did
that got by me before adding it to the Update.

Also if you have an e-mail address that ends with @orange.fr or
@comcast.net there is an e-mail problem that I can not fix on my end.



OK guys download the April update again and e-mail me if you have any problems :up:

Hi ZW,

its been a long long time..

The first thing that caught my eye... YES I have a wingman. This is what i missed.
The "game" is getting better. I saw you implemented the Panther Ausf. D too:up:

You mentioned it , there is a slight problem with the Tiger.
I refer now to the Mittlere Ausfuehrung.

Being inside / first person view (Commander),i have only three observation slits. The newer turret had 7 if i remember right. This is only for future updates.

Game is running smoothly. Have to test it a little more. Russian missions were not ironrd out as you mentioned it somewere.

The other nice feature is the 88mm. Great to have it and to "hear" it.

For those who had no problems downloading the patch, there is no v.2 or?

Old buddy, thanks alot and keep up that work. Cant wait to have some crewmembers in the future.

S!

LC


PS: GIVE ME THAT NEW SKIN TOOOOOOOOOOO

[woofiedog]

Agree that this is an excellent update and it is great to have a wing man that stay along side and helps out with their share of fighting. :D

Seems that the Floating Tank is still popping up though.

Quote... For those who had no problems downloading the patch, there is no v.2 or?

When you open the update it states that it is the ZW_April_2012_v2 exe. But the name once you open the application is the Project ZeeWolf's Techincal Update v.1A.

Again... thank's for this update ZeeWolf.

[ZeeWolf]

Thanks LC, woofiedog,
Do not think that I've been on vacation Kameraden. On the contrary, duty calls and I have been at it. :up:

Here are some screenshots of the new Playable Panther Ausf D.:woot:
http://www.tanksimzw.com/images/PlayablePanther_3.jpg

I plan on giving the Panther projeckt my absolute best effort.:03:

http://www.tanksimzw.com/images/PlayablePanther_2.jpg


My war study has been very encouraging. The Panther missions will start at
Zitadelle. And include the heavy fighting that followed the July struggle with
the massive Soviet counter attack that ensued. Having been reading of the
heroic effort the II SS Panzer Corp made shoulder to shoulder with their
Wehrmacht brothers. To fight with impossible odds and grossly out
numbered by the godless hordes - they fought on. I will do my best to
honor them in my up coming missions.

Vorwärts Kameraden!

PS: I have a Kamerad that will help me with translating for a German version of Project ZeeWolf.:rock:

[Newtonious]

I downloaded the Xmas Gift a couple of days ago, the only problems I've encountered seem to be related to my PC performance. FPS was under 10 usually 6,7 or 8 and sometimes down to 0 but I was able to make it thru mission 1. For some reason I'm not able to get SLI to work on my Alienware, I think the new Mods would probably work if I could get the other card in tandem. The new mods made the play more exciting and has spurred more interest on the rest of the project but I definately need to get my PC in better shape
Keep up the good work and I'll try and figure out my SLI problem

Hi ZeeWolf! I am very interested in your mod...! Can I ask, did you fix the enemy AI having x ray vision? that almost kills the game for me. Tactically, using trees and brush for an ambush is so important...but that whole aspect of the game is ruined by their x ray vision.

Thanks...!:)

[charon2112]

Hello again ZeeWolf. I am very interested in purchasing your mod. My only concern is my systems performance. I think I have a very decent system, but I've read a few comments in this thread that suggest very low FPS with systems that seem more powerful than mine. My specs are below, what do you think? Thanks very much! :salute:

-Intel Core i5-750 @ 4 ghz
-Gigabyte GTX 560 Ti
-8 GB DDR3 1600 Memory

Hi woofiedog,
I have yet to release the latest improvements that are in the video.
The next update will include the new changes. You will also notice the
change in overall mass of the playable tanks too, in which I am very
delighted about. However these new changes will require more cpu horsepower.

ZeeWolf :salute:

[woofiedog]

A bit more horsepower you say... well I'm not too worried with my rig's powertrain at the moment and should be able handle the increased load.

But then again... we'll see soon enough! LoL

Will be looking forward though to seeing and playing the new updates you are working on, for as in the video this will be a hec of an improvment to the overall looks and sounds like with the other change to the mass of the playable tanks this will help with the gameplay of TvT.

Like those katyusha rockets screaming in at you... it should be a blast! Wicked :D

Thanks guys!,
While I was in the brig I used my time wisely and worked on the Panther interior.
I also had the entire week of the July 4th holiday off (from my day
job). A hurdle that was somewhat complex, has now been understood and
now is another fine detail for the driver compartment [Panther]. The issue
was the modeling of the vision port hatch assembly, used on the Ausf. D and
Ausf. A. This "must have" detail for the driver has been very well done and works
like the original unit. I am very proud of myself on this effort. :shucks:
To making of the interiors is a grueling task when the standard has been set high.

So, just know that old ZeeWolfy is committed to the task,

better movement. And, a new mission winter 3 that has excellent performance.:sunny:
But there is still more things I have to catch up on while I work to complete

[Tiger von Witebsk]

Hello, i just joined this site and would like to ask a few questions about this cool looking mod.
I know there is a lot more tanks in this mod, I saw the pics of Nashorn, Wespe, StuG etc, but are they playble? or are they just for AI? can you choose which tank you want to be using before you start playing? or you have to be in Tiger/ T 34 everytime?

[woofiedog]

Tiger von Witebsk... welcome. :)

Nashorn, Wespe, StuG etc, but are they playble? or are they just for AI? They are AI at the moment and only the Tiger & T-34 are playable with your choice of German or Soviet missions.

But checkout the info at ZeeWolf's site.

http://www.tanksimzw.com/

And also at Panzer Sims.

http://panzersim.forumotion.com/forum

Also do you have a TvsT DVD... if not I did see these copies at Amazon UK.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss/280-6826142-0199212?url=search-alias%3Dcomputers&field-keywords=WWII+Battle+Tanks%3A+T-34+vs+Tiger

Good Luck and Welcome Aboard.

[Tiger von Witebsk]

Not playble :cry:....ok thank you.
Nashorn is my most favourite WW2 Panzerjäger, you cant see or play it in any game, so when I saw the pic of it it, it made me very happy.

Btw, I already visited the site, but could not find any info if they are playble or not, also I already own T vs T, but there is only 6 missions for Germans and only with Tiger, so I became boored very soon.:)

Not playble :cry:....ok thank you.
Nashorn is my most favourite WW2 Panzerjäger, you cant see or play it in any game, so when I saw the pic of it it, it made me very happy.

Welcome aboard Tiger von Witebsk,
Hey, have you checked out World of Tanks. I hear it is great entertainment,
never heard of anyone who likes it complain it's boring. It has lots of playable
tanks as well.
As for Project ZeeWolf, it's focus is on the Tank simulation aspect and it is
not for everyone, the guys that really like it are WWII die hards (like me :)).
As for the six German missions I would like to say you missed the Kursk and
the Winter missions also.

I know, i like this game very much and i am also big fan of WW2, especialy tanks. Honestly in my opinion WoT is just a crap arcade, i play only realistic tank simulations like Darkest Hour 44-45, Stell Fury Kharkov or TvsT.
The missions in TvsT are good, but if you play them over and over again it becames booring.
Btw, as woofiedog wrote, the tanks are for AI at this moment...do that means, that you are working on it to be for players to? or it is not possible due to the game engine limitation or what ever, to make them playble?

Sorry for my english.

That is good, TvsT has the capacity to become a great tank sim. The main
limitation (as I see it) is the inability to use multiple CPUs. As for the ability
to mod TvsT, the sky is the limit. And yes new playable tanks are coming.

I have read that in the latest updates ZeeWolf has been working to increase the Frames Per Second obtained in the missions. The very low FPS were really a problem for me in this sim.

Has this work produced noticeable results?

I know it depends on the specific mission but how many FPS are you getting now with the latest update? Can you give me some numbers please?

I bring good tidings from the front,
The new playable Panther Ausf. D is very near complete. I have been blessed
by receiving all this week and half of next off from my day job. This is perfect
to do the extra things necessary to make the first playable tank (that has been a Project ZeeWolf creation from top to bottom) a real delight.

http://www.tanksimzw.com/images/ZWPanther_GunSite_1.jpg

It has been a struggle, but thanks to your patents a vary pleasant experience.
The Panther interior details needed to be model accurately the
driver compartment as well as the inside turret detail was terribly time consuming,
taking months of researching useful data that would satisfy my "Perfectionist tendency".
However the work has been worth it and of course there is still things that I will be
adjusting and modifying until I am absolutely finished, but these things you will hardly notice.
And any changes made will be sent out in new updates and will not effect the planned release date.
Meanwhile, 2013 looks like another good year for tank warfare !

Vorwärts Kameraden!

Cruising in a Panther Ausf. D model sounds excellent!

By the way since they are coming fresh off the assembly line is there anyway we can preorder heated leather seats, tilt steering, cruise control and a multi changer CD player.

Just kidding :D

[ZeeWolf]

Howdy there Kameraden!
Ole' ZeeWolf here and I just wanted to give you a "Sneak Peak" at a high
lighted component of the new Panther interior. This is the new drivers hatch
(that is fully functional) that is included in the new interior. Also I wanted to
give you an idea what the kind of work you can expect and a glimpse of the
methods used to model objects using photos and assembly drawings

Tanks woofiedog and Priscalan,
I have another image it's the drivers compartment.
I have the (painful) decision to make on what details
to leave in and what to leave out. Alredy the total
Panther interior is a whooping 37000 plus vertices so
I what to focus on what will be seen in the game.
This image was a quick render in the modeling program
with out texture maps that will be used in the game.
This is definitely not finished but gives you an idea of
what we're all be waiting on.

Hallo flying-kane,
like I said, I am working about a year behind
schedule, so no new announcements until I get
caught up.
But just to remind everyone, before I got
this day job the hours per day that went in to
Project ZeeWolf was a minimum of 8 hours a day.
Although if I told the actual time spend you
probably would not believe it :)
I really miss those days however. But the reality
is, I had to take a job because Project ZeeWolf
was not generating enough income. As retirement
age nears (my age is 58) I need to be ahead. :yep:
But the good news is there is no plan to stop or
change my long term plans concerning T34 vs Tiger.:up:

Finally I can report the new playable Panther Ausf. D is complete. :woot:
With some very fine tweaks and as soon as the new Panther mission is complete, I will send it out to all whom have been so patient.
It has been a long road to get here. The amount of work and research has
opened up some of the last mysteries of T34 vs Tiger and I can truly say
the next Playable tank will be much easier to produce.
The Panther Ausf D has been a wise choice to tackle first, like the original,
it will be the one to work out the teething issues.
After I send this new update out the details on renewing 2013 membership
will be posted. And hopefully get some new members too. :up:

The Playable Panther Ausf D update which has been a huge effort to
finally finished. I have to say this was no easy task, it has been
six months from the last update but I am happy to share it with
my members with much more to come. However, I do not see any
updates taking this long again, most will be 1 - 3 months between
each new release, although I am always behind now I'm working two
jobs, my commitment is firm. :up:
The Panther Ausf A and Ausf G will come much sooner now the hardest
part [interior model] is done. The changes to the later model's
interior will be much easier using the modified D interior.:yep:
And of course the new Panther comes with a new addon called
"Panthers of 1943" where both the Ausf A and Ausf D play a huge
roll in some awesome battle history on the Russian Front.:)

Greetings krieg,
No new updates yet. I have rested for more then
a few months from working on T34 vs Tiger to
avoid burnout.
But I have been slowly getting back in to
production again. As you know I work full
time as a machinist and that takes a huge
part of my time that I normally would spend on
Project ZeeWolf.
When I took my day job I was almost broke,
But now my situation is much better, thank God :)

The next update will be around Christmas.
Although, there will be no new playable tanks yet,
there is some cool stuff to I will have for you.

As many already know I have a full time day job and this has a

However, my pre-day job drive has returned (which is very good news btw).
The source of frustration for me has been trying to do too much at one time,
thus throwing my time management in a tail spin.
So, my solution is to get back to basics and producing the innovations
that should come first.
IE, halt all work on new playable tanks until the hard work of creating the static objects

and being fully focused on the Tiger E1 (still my favorite). :sunny:

BTW:i think you should make a battle which is famous in the world,"The battle of Villers-Bocage"..Michael Wittmann was an legendary Tiger commander in the WWII,he made a miracle in Villers-Bocage,so if you recreat Shermans, Cromwells，and so on ,you can recreat the battle again..most people who like Tiger should love it,and thank for your job.

Sorry ,my English is not very well,hope you can understand what i say..

i have got it, the network or something but i fixed it..


i install your new mission 6,and found something different from the stock version:
1 did you change the rpm of tiger to 3000?i found tiger could move at the highest speed of 46km/h at 3000rpm,but you couuldnt maintain it too long,becasue the engin will worn out?

2 i shot some T34 on its turret,and the turret was pierced, the T34 should be destroyed in stock version,but i found the T34 can still move around in your version,although it couldnt fire anymore,why? i must fire another shell at its engin, so it will be destroyed completely...

That's great!
The 2 issues you mention is good, more like reality.
1. Do not run your engine at full rpm or it will ware out.
2. Hitting the the turret only disables the turret.

hi,zw,do you have changed the ballistic trajectory of PzGr39-1?i found the PzGr39-1 and PzGr39HL have different ballistic in stock version,but when i install your ZW's Christmas Gift plus Mission 6,i found PzGr39-1 and PzGr39HL have same ballistic...

the two type of ammos' ballistic are all straight ,PzGr39-1 should be more curved than pzgrhl in stock..

same question..

[daskal]

Hi ZeeWolf,

I have just recently bought into your expansion. I have only tested a couple of missions, but I like what I have seen so far. A couple of questions regarding the current release:

- Key Settings are not saved - I guess this was an issue with the original game as well, but would it be possible to fix this in your future releases?

- Magnification in the Tiger's gunners view - as far as i know the Tiger I should have a 2.5x scale magnification available in the gunners sight - again this was missing from the original game, any chance of adding this in the future?

- Different mouse settings in turret/gunners sight and external views. Any chance of adding this? Inverted view works fine in external view, but in gunners view its a pain in the ass.

- Tiger sounds - the movement sound effects are incorrectly looping in the current Zeewolf release

- Loading sounds - these seem to be missing for the current release - is this intentional?

Btw. here is small video I recorded from my first engagement with project Zeewolf installed:

At the moment I only have a digital copy of TvsT, but I prefer the old fashioned boxed/physical copy version, so I made up a custom cover for myself on TvsT and ZeeWolf's expansion that I will use with my physical copy as DVD sleeve:

Well - I guess you are better off retaining your current job - just keep the updates coming as well. I think your mod has great potential, but relatively few people know about, lets see if I can create a bit more buzz with a few more videos.

Hope to see couple of new scenarios in the near future :cool:

I think people have to face the facts.T his sim is not going anywhere. It's dying slowly. ZeeWolf is a courageous man but he is alone and I think the amount of work between his job and this game are finally taking a toll. It's hard to find the motivation to keep going when there's nobody to help you. Read the first posts going back 5 years ago and the enthusiasm and see what has been happening for the last year or two and you'll understand what I am talking about.

The irony is that I could barely play his Kursk mod in 2010 when I bought into it for one year. They were just too tough on my pc or laptop could barely get 15 fps. Now with my latest Asus Rep of Gamer laptop I get easily 40 to 50 with everything maxed out.

It's sad but I think people have the think twice before investing in this game.

[Sepp von Ch.]

I bought before Christmas original T-34 vs Tiger sim, I was hoping, I can play the Kursk and other missions during Christmas (and that I will support further development) but nothing ...:-/

Finally some feed back. 40 to 50 fps that's fantastic frinik!

This my be hard to believe but a little real data feed back goes along way with me :yep:

I might add too that around April 2014 I was hacked and that kinda hurt :oops:
However, you guys have been very respectful and patient and I will never allow that to
go unrewarded.

Meanwhile, with all the type of work [in TvT] that was fairly easy is all behind me now
the challenges are more a programing language issue (more tedious) and pure
graphics, like finishing the model's texture maps and adding more objects etc..

But, regardless, the 2015 release will be one hell of an improvement from the 2010
release that frinik is talking about. :up:

Oh! one more thing, buying a baseball ticket, going to a movie or paying for a
subscription, etc. is not an investment. It's just something you decide to spend your
money on. :know:
But, if you do need some investment advice stay out of that dam stock market it's
rigged by those (well I just better leave it at that).

Vorwärts Kameraden!

ZW :salute:

[frinik]

Sad to hear you were hacked. Can't understand why so many people abuse the internet which brings so much to so many people on the Earth!

Wish you all the best Zee! Hope you can get your work on track and keep this sim alive. I am not overly optimistic; as you are alone in this endeavour but as long as there's life there's hope. Happy New Year to you and everybody else on the forum!
