Some games never die...

The one thing i loved with that game, was the easy modding of the .ini files, to make the units sit down, light a fire and so on. You could possibly script those soliders to do anything!
I havent played that since "resistance" was released...Thats a long time ago.... Oh memories.....

Well, dont want to hijack an important thread...Sorry mate.,..

Talking about FPS's.. what is that Russian game, or the one with the Russian soldiers in Berlin (WW2) on the front cover - this one was supposed to be a good one. any idea what it's like ??

@ Seth

If you didn't play OFP since resistance, you wouldn't recognize the game with today's supermods and terrain/trees/sky etc.. textures.
It's like going from stock SH3 to GWX, may be even more...

I played them ALL, OFP was a very nice game back then, but as much as I respect the OFP modding community, they have made great if not superb vehicle addons, but the arms elbows, legs and so on of soldiers still look much like stock OFP.
here's a pic to demo:



Now and then on http://ofp.gamepark.cz you see that people actually mod different real looking faces for them soldiers, but the problem is, they are all the same height, and they seem like all having the same bodyweight. Armed Assault has that same problem, furhtermore the soldiers in AA don't even look real, they should've taken the soldier models from BF 2 instead.

Once I recall for OFP, someone made a mercenary addon with different soldiers, now that rocked. Even a girl was included.

One thing I am still wondering about is, what Flashpoint in The Falklands will come up with, if they ever make it past the screenshot phase.

Sorry bout posting this in your Superb Sextant mod Vanjast.

"Nothing is impossible, the impossible just takes longer to do.."

Yes I remember the mission. You had to escape from captive and follow the stars to find rescue.
I didnt mean that it's not possible in a game, but I had heard that it wasnt possible in SH3 since the stars werent modelled right. But I guess I've already being proved wrong so thats AWESOME. Feels good to be wrong sometimes :rotfl:

Speaking of OFP.. I'm going to install the game right now..

Thanks for bringing the game up, Seth!

I advise you strongly to try FFUR 2007, you will see the difference, specially in the way they move - features thks to SLX...

Hey guys, thanks for the heads up, OFP used to be my favorite first person shooter, and the game I played most, despite its age.

It still leaves most historic shooters for dead, I'll check out the web site (http://ofp.gamepark.cz ) again I havnt had a look in years. I was really interested in the Invasion1944 Mod has any one played this I could never get it to work.
