[Wilcke]

frinik,

Thanks for the help and there is never a hurry on this stuff. I like your independant installs. It helps to avoid mod soup.

Look forward to running SF with the mods, I currently just run it with 1.4.

[frinik]

That's right Wilcke, it avoids mod soup and by compartmenting my installs - in case one becomes corrupted - I can uninstall it without screwing up my good ones and it makes reinstalls or upgrades easier.I do the same with T vs T and Panzer Elite. I may even make a 4th install of SF on my external hard disck( I only use laptop no pcs) to have a new install of SP 1.4 with the updated Winter mod(Dec 2009).

What's fun too is the variety; I can switch to different versions of my game depending on my moods to avoid staleness.And that way I can see what the upgrades bring to my game compared with earlier versions of it.

Cheers

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.

Thanks a lot for your help, downloaded these mods even tiger mod 098.

One question remains.

After installing these mods, game menue is in russuian right?


Thanks

Txema, I am referring to a thread I saw on the Sukhoi.ru forum dedicated to Steel Fury. Stone 2009 I think it was gave a download to a new updated version of the Winter mod. I don't think it's a big deal it simply includes a few improvements over the older beta version of April or May 2009. I haven't had time to download it myself. Anyway Sledgehammer has asked me to lump all the download links that I have for Steel Fury and post them. So I''ll look for it and make sure it's amongst them Otherwise you can find it yourself it was posted in early to mid January 2010.

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

BTW for those interested; a new mod the Stug IIIG with 3 playable missions has been released a couple of days ago.Here's the link:

Cheers

PS; it's compatible with the Tiger 0.98 and Tiger 1.0 mods.

Hello frinik

If you are the same man who post message on FRANCE SIMULATION, my opinion about missions of Friedrich Wilhelm's is positive,he can continuous,they are interesting.
And you,you can put in download your "14 missions peaufinées".
I think community of steel fury will appreciate.

Cheers

Oui Bobosse ( amusant comme surnom) je suis la même personne qui affiche sur France Simulation. Je vais télécharger mes 14 missions( j'en ai 2 de Friedrich Wilhelm que j'ai modifées (dont une qu'il n'a pas rendue publique) et rendues plus difficiles mais aussi un peu plus épicées) ce weekend dans un espace approprié et je les afficherai sur FS. Attentions mes missions ne sont pas aussi sophistiquées que celles que produisent certains moddeurs(russes surtout) mais par contre je garanti suspense, grosses batailles de tanks , action à gogo et une certaine variété.J'ai également modifié 2 missions existantes( du menu user missions) produites par d'autres et sans changer le scénario j'ai modifié les types de char en jeu et j'ai surtout accru le nombre de véhicules impliqués dans le combat.Je les ai testées et jouées hier et franchement j'ai aimé le résultat( il s'agit de la misison Loz05 fcrée par Jake ou FabienFred et de la Mission Panzer IVF2 de Petrovkazzw485 crée par Stone2009 or SHUN. Je les afficherai mais en donnant le crédit à qui de droit.Je vais graduellement modifier toutes les missions existantes de SF que ce soit single, user, ou campagnes afin de les rendre plus difficiles et plus étoffées à mon goût.


Est-ce que tu es le meme Philippe qui affiche sur HQ SIM(More Steel Fury Goodness)?


Salutations.

Merci pour ta réponse.

Je suis satisfait qu'il y ai quelques personnes en France qui s'intéresse a ce jeu dont la "modabilité" et le potentiel mérite qu'on le valorise.
Je suis bien la même personne qui affiche sur SIM HQ,et je passe beaucoup de temps sur le forum de nos"comrad moddeurs russes".
Pour faire court je n'arrive pas ,malgré une remise à jour de mon mot de passe à me connecter sur France simulation donc je n'aurai pas accès à tes missions.
Bon WE et merci pour le boulot fait pour la communauté.

Philippe

[frinik]

Philippe ne te fais pas de bile donne-moi ton adresse email perso. et je pourrais t´envoyer mes missions en piece jointe par yahoo.C´est ce que Friedrich Wilhelm et moi faisons.

salutationsç

PS moi aussi je frequente le site Avia Forum a la recherche de noueaux mods mais je n´y suis pas inscrit.

Hey Frinik,

I would appreciate it very much if you could let us download your 14 missions for Steel Fury !!!

Are you planning to release them soon??


Txema

[frinik]

Hi Txema, actually I have over 18 now.I modified 2 of Friedrich Wilhelm's missions( including one he didn't post) and 3 user-made missions made by others(Loz5, Africa1 and Trophy Petrovka wwzzz485). I just finished a night mission with artillery strikes and flares and my skills are getting a bit more refined.I will eventually post my missions and the remake of others on this site and others.If you wish to play them send me your private email by pm and I will send them to you by yahoomail.

I am planning to rework some more user-made missions and eventually all single and stock campaign missions to make them a bit more action oriented, more complex and definitely tougher.My ambition is to remake all the existing SF missions.I will try to upload those I have created/modified into a sort of file sharing site this coming weekend to make them available to the community.Right now I haven't got the time.

Cheers

Frinik
