Frinik, if you could grab the download links, I will update the main post. I'm horrible at following directions sometimes :P

Hi Sledgehammer; here's the link:http://forum.sukhoi.ru/search.php?searchid=2488968.
I recommend that you make sure that your computer can translate cyrillic characters into latin ones.I downloaded a new version yesterday called Tiger 0.98 mod, in addition to 4 missions with the Tiger Auf.H and another 4 with the JS2 you get an additional 4 missions with the KV2(one ugly tank!).TPlease note that the Sukhoi.ru/forum is similar in concept to the Subsim website except that it's dedicated to flight sims.

However, there is a search engine.Just type in Steel Fury and it will direct you straight to it.You 'll find many interesting threads from Stone20009 a Russian modder who makes most of the new SF mods and missions.

With T vs T being rejuvenated by Zee Wolf and Steel Fury being modded with new missions and tanks) on a regular basis these are good times indeed!

Hello all,

Recently, I have begun to uncover some of the mysteries of the Steel Fury mission editor and started to create a few simple missions. These missions (missions 2, 3, 4) are my first tentative steps into learning the use of the mission editor. As such, they are still incomplete and lack many features you may be familiar with from the missions that came with the stock-version of the game.
However, I would like to share them with the community and I hope you will enjoy them. I would appreciate constructive comments and feedback.

Best regards,

FW

Re Friedrich Wilhelm's missions ; I have had the great honour of being the tester for his missions and they rock!If you want the challenge of your life try mission 3 and 4 without the invincibility and increased shell power features turned on , without the markers showing on the map and with enemy experience at max and force balance set at 10.They are amongst the best and most challenging missions I have played in SF.

Cheers

Ls , just check my previous messages ; I list the link to the Sukhoi.ru site where you can access the Tiger0.98 mod which includes 4 missions fwith the Tiger Auf H, 4 with the Soviet JS2 and another 4 with the KV2( one ugly tank!).Unfortuntaely as you will find out on the forum, the Hetzer and Panther are no longer available. The reason is that they modders took them straight out of a Red Orchestra mod. However once the modellers found out that some modders werre planning to use both Hetzer and Panther for SF they objected and as a result the mod for has been withdrawn.But take heart because Stone 2009 and some other modders are already working on the Panther and Hetzer and they will release thta mod before mid February.There's one mod with the SU152 , a hug Soviet self propelled gun but I haven't been able to make it work proprely.

Another good website to get downloads for TvsT, Steel Fury and others is the Tansim.ru website.

Good luck.

BTW, there's a new download of the T34/85 mod which makes it compatible with the Tiger 0.98 mod.It gives the T34/95 new optics( very nice ), new caterpillar threads.Remember to use these mods you need to have Steel Panzer version 1.4 installed.It does not work with previous versions of Steel Panzer.You can then install Steel fury sound mod or ffrontline accoustics,the T34/85 mod, the Trophy Mod and the Tiger 0.98.The T60 mosd is nor compatible with the Tiger 0.98 and needs to be diasbled if you have it.

Cheers

I tried both your link, and I dug into the forum myself and posted a link, and both came back with a "Page cannot be found" type error.

What I will do, in the next few days, is open up a new subfolder on my Mediafire account and download as many of these mods as I can and re-upload them on my page so they will be there for everyone who does not want to dig through the Cyrillic With proper mod credits.

This is Odd Sledgehammer because I bookmarked the Sukhoi page in my list of internet favourites and everytime I wish to read the forum I just click on it and bingo I get access to it without any problems(sometimes a broken link but I just click on refresh and I get the page).

What you can do is what I did orginally because the link posted by the Russian modders did not work for me either. So I just googled Sukhoi.ru and I got a page which lists all Sukhoi websites. Then in the middle of the page you will see sukhoi.ru forum.Click on that one and it will take you to the Aviaforum which is a forum dedicated to flight sims but includes one dedicated to tanksims including SF.I just click on translate on the upper right corner of the page and I get the Russian translated into more or less accurate English but I can fill in the gaps and make guesses when the translations are a bit off the mark.

Good luck!

If you have trouble getting to the Sukhoi.ru forum I can always posts the download links to the mods that you wish to have...

Cheers

Lc that mod has been updated to version 0.98.It includes a new tank, the Soviet KV2, with 4 new missions.Also the Tiger has now 5 Panzergranate 88 shells and 5 less pzgranate 39.It's got better armour protection in some places and the HE shells are a bit less powerful as per the original specs. Also that version is compatible with the T34/85 mod which now includes the T60 which you don't need to disenable whenever you want to play the Tiger one.The T34/85 has new, updated gunsights.All in all it's worth having the updated version.You can get it in the same thread just a a couple of pages after.

[frinik]

Lc my friend why didn't you tell me about the SF mods. Tiger 0.97 is old news.Since there's been Tiger mod 0.98 which adds the the KV2 in addition to the JS2 and Tiger 1.0 which now includes the Tiger II(Koenigstiger).If you need I can send you the download links????

Morty, I will try PM'ing you.Of course my user-made missions are free.They are simple, action-oriented, and mostly include Tigers. KV1s and 2s, Js2s, T34/76 and 85, and occasionally Hetzers, Stug IIId Panzer IV F1 and 2s.I am awaiting the new Steel Panzer mod to add OPanthers, Tiger II, SU 76,85 and others to my missions.You need to have either the TIger0.98 or 1.0 enabled to play them and the Hetzer mod for the few missions that include the Hetzer.My missions are datapack ones which means you only have to enable them using the mission editor in your game.It's very simple. You just open the mission editor in your game main folder.Then you'll see 4 sub folders.The first one is called Create New Missions.You click on it and a small screen will open up with on the right side 5 options; create mission, pack, unpack, open editor and exit,Just click on unpack option and match it with the folder in which you'll have my missions datapack.Once you open the missions into the un pack folder it will appear on your little screen and then when you open your game my misison will appear in your user made missions menu.Just play it.Anyway I can always guide you trhough it if ther are problems.

Will PM you soon

Cheers

Hi trek,

I saw your post on the Tvst34 thread about your problems with Steel Fury. I have 3 different installs of the game; one with Steel Panzer 1.3 and the Winter mod as a permanent install, one with Steel Fury 1.3 and the last one with Steel panzer 1.4 and all subsequent mods, including Sobolenskis missions(4 tough missions made b y Russuian modders on with the T34-76 the other with the T34/85), a Stug III campaign, the Friderikus with PZ III and PZ IV, the T34/85 mod and the most recent one with the T60 and 4 missions on the Soviet South campaign.

Where did you install those mods that don't work? I can check out my own game folder and tell you if there's somethin wrong with your install?

I am intrigued by your mod 0.97 Hetzer and Tiger? is it for Stweel Fury? If yes where can I download them?

Cheers

Frinik
