View Full Version : Eye for an eye - a Faces of War and Men of War modification

The former Battle of the Beasts modteam presents you, Eye for an eye modification! We've been leaking small drips of intel of it some days, some of you may have noticed the sigs of our team members, some of you might have gotten some privileges to see WIP pics and so on.

EFAE is a mod in its Alpha stage and nowadays is the pain in the butt for six community members ;

C0ntrol : Soundwork - Skins - Some minor mapping - Some models - Overall handyman
HrcAk47 : Mapping - Some skins - Notepad wizard - Overall handyman
alimoroz : 3D models and textures
matty148 : 3D models and textures
kapulA : Mapping - Some coding if needed
Tigerkiller : Scripting

The mod is based on fictional war between USA and Iran.

2010 - US launches an all out attack on Iran without any obvious reason. US officials say that the reason is that Iran is supporting known terrorist cells that operate all over the world. Rest of the world are sure that the reason is totally different. The black gold, Iran's oilfields... Iran quickly mobilizes it's army and soon the war rages at the soil of Iran.

Features:
-A total compilation of modern warfare. Tanks, jeeps, assault rifles, light machine guns and very probably some aircrafts and helicopters too!
-Every single new entity has a new sound, weapons, tanks etc.
-Iran army actually speaks Arabian
-Beautiful and unbelieveably detailed maps by HrcAk47, the mapper who finished the 2nd. in DMS mapping competition and kapulA.
-And much more to come!

At the moment our mods size is around 100 Mb so there really is a lot of stuff in it. Stay tuned and please do not ask when will we release it. The answer will simply be, when it is ready.


I also made you a quick teaser trailer video of two months work.

Ps. I excuse the small linqual error at the end of the video...

Wow that teaser got me riled up... now I gotta wait for this :evil:

Oh well... I have one quick question, it said in your post that your just adding new weapon skins, new character skins, and etc. But are you gonna redefine the damage modifiers to the weapons to something authentic (Like the BRTH2 mod) and shoot pretty far away?

Looking Good with the mod so far, Good Luck!

C0ntrol
18-02-2008, 05:40
Of course! We have already removed most of the dummy armor system to make tanks behave more realistic. Weapon ranges will also be tweaked by the caliber they use + if the weapon has a silencer/scope the range will be smaller/longer.

I will try to get you guys a devupdate during this week with loads of screens about the new skins, weapons and if you're lucky you might even see some of our armored beasts ;)

Maybe you should consider teaming up with Modern Warfare aka Jozor, because its better to have 1 Modern War mod, then 2 mods :grin:

Anyways, this look sweet, the demo video looks awesome :hurray:

As I said before, end of conversation. Please do not turn this topic into warzone of written word.

And I never asked stuff like that. I've only asked if Schneider could've lent me your helmet and a basis Iraq skin (which we would've used as an example...), due that ali has huge amount of work with the vehicles (few of them are already finished though :toast: ) and weapons.

Afterall, we - every single soul in our modteam - disagree the idea of joining mods at this point of the progress. We want to do atleast the first release and see how the community reacts to that. If we're successfull we're going to keep supplying you guys with major updates.

E: I was supposed to post this in the first post, the M203 launcher you see in the video actually works ;) Thanks for that to HrcAk who spent many days figuring it out :booyah:

Jozor
19-02-2008, 16:53
Yes, you don't like to debate things such as these do you..
You did ask things like that.

This Ali:
http://www.digitalmindsoft.eu/forums/vi ... f=14&t=829 (http://www.digitalmindsoft.eu/forums/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=829)

Ali dosen't model, everything you've showed me, That you've said that "Ali made", I've been able to source.
And even tho your going to reply saying that the stuff you showed me was "temporary markers", I highly doubt it. Now C0ntrol, are you going to go press the "!" button I do wounder..

C0ntrol
19-02-2008, 16:57
I gently asked in the latest post that do not turn this into warzone. Do I have to beg that from you or will you just keep going afterwards?

And I am not going to comment the AMX tank, I know that it is a 3d model from the website, but so what? As far as I can see that website requires a payment if you want to download stuff there.

You have no idea what we have in storage. And yes, everything is made from scratch as far as I know.

END OF CONVERSATION

Ok, guys let's leave it here.
But C0ntrol, if you name someone and give him the fault of a situation, you should atleast give him the chance to clear up things or just don't mention him.

Also you should inform youself very well from where your stuff comes from, an as far as I know doesn't help in the end.

Good luck with your mod!

Thank you for that one, we'll try our best 8) .

Well, I guess WIP pictures from the work are something to prove that the stuff is made from scratch.

Just to make it a bit cleared, the AMX tank is not going to be used in the mod.

Sorry for being such a jackass n00b. :oops:


My opinion:

Like Bush... I work on what I've got information infront of me at that time... And like Saddam, Saddam was going to buy WMD's prior to iraq, but thought it was an american sting operation.. :ninja:

Very confused about this all now tho. :confused:
Wtf was up with those other models that wern't your's that you said Ali made if he can realy make stuff? :confused:

I do't need a Certificate from u, can i realy make stuff or not.
1- I know what I am capable of.
2- For me i making a mod just to add some excitement to fow for me and othors who whould like to use . if u do not like to use a mod that containe a models downloded from the net this is ur problem ,don't use it.
U said that i'm downloading stuffs from the net, as i know net for evreyboy so download from the net as much as u like.
when i take your models and using it in my mod then hold me else keep you comment for ur self.

I never said I have a problem with <Downloaded models> (with credits), just with <Downloaded models> that <one>, aka you, were saying you made, Or atleast thats what C0ntrol and HrcAk47 were saying..

If you use a Model of the internet, free or payed, YOU GIVE CREDITS to the PERSON who MADE it. It was very hard to belive you made anything when all I was ever seeing was stuff that you were taking credit for, but had obiously not made.
There is a diffrence between a private mod and a public mod, If I were to release my private configuration of DCG, I couldn't and I certainly wouldn't say "Hey, I made all this stuff. (Cause I downloaded it Free of teh Internetz!)".

And, I can't comment on this DUE to none of my models being used? Wow, Sir you are such a gentleman. Know all the rules now don't you.

But, It's just not on, If you want to continue to argue about all this, fine. But if not I'll end it here.

Also, Yer english be better than C0ntrol/HrcAk47 said it be..

Jozor, please, stop flaming on our topic. From behalf of our team, i hereby end this argument. If you have anything else to add, please use PM or Xfire. You know our adresses.

Anyways, you may rest assured we will use only models made by us - and even if it comes to importing, it will surely be mentioned in the credits. I havent saw any false bragging with other people's models in this topic, have you?

Hi guys,

Since C0ntrol is off skiing and having fun with polar bears, I will be running the Devupdates while he's gone :D

Today we present to you - the army of Iran!

DEVUPDATE no 2

http://i25.tinypic.com/rbeg5t.jpg

Welcome to the exibition. Presented here are the majority of weapons used by Iran forces.

http://i32.tinypic.com/2cijskj.jpg

We present the AK47, veteran of many wars, from where it gained its fame. Although lesser range and accuracy than its US counterpart, the M16, it sure makes up with its devastating firepower, reliability, and not to mention price. This weapon is in use in reserve units of Iran army.

Depicted next to it is the AKS74, which is used by reserve infantry officers.

http://i25.tinypic.com/2mfxcox.jpg
Here we see a KSVK Anti Materiel Rifle of Russian manufacture. With its 12,7 x 108 mm round it can knock out a Humvee or down a non-armored helicopter at a pretty decent distance. It can also pluck the track off main battle tanks, rendering them immobile. Not to mention its impact on soft targets. No body armor can protect from this. It will be used by Heavy sniper teams. Also depicted are the 4 types of ammo: Standard (brown), AP (blue), HE (red) and Tracer (yellow).

http://i26.tinypic.com/2uqzt3o.jpg

VSS Vintorez, a silenced scoped weapon used by Recon troops. I cannot say anything more. :ninja:

http://i32.tinypic.com/wui77s.jpg

SVD-S Dragunov, a modernized version of a cold war legend, the SVD. Reliable and powerful squad marksman's rifle.

http://i32.tinypic.com/23rweao.jpg

Presented here are the 2 weapons, prides of German weapon industry. MG3, licencedly produced in Iran as MGA3 is used as a squad automatic weapon in Iran elite forces. With its 1350 rpm rate of fire, it truely produces a rain of lead.
Below it, a scoped version of G3 rifle, the G3SG1 is depicted. Squad marksman's rifle of the Elite corps, it increases the attack range of an Elite squad. Uses 2 types of ammo, standard and HET (High Explosive Tracer (red)).

http://i25.tinypic.com/2ainfdh.jpg

Shown here are a couple of RPG-18 Disposable Antitank missiles. Pretty outdated by this time, but they at least give a chance of tackling tanks to a single soldier. Scheduled to be replaced in the Iran army, but still widely used.
Comes in 2 flavours, HEAT and HE.

http://i25.tinypic.com/11ke140.jpg

Here we have another two Cold war clasics, the RPG-7v and PKM. RPG7v is a weapon in use by Iran reserve corps, and during the last 40 years of its use, it has been extensively modified. With new tandem rounds, it poses a threat to even the most modern battle tanks.
PKM, another pride of the Soviet weapon industry, is the squad automated weapon of Iran Reserve corps, and also the coaxial machine gun in T72 tank. Reliable and powerful weapon.

http://i30.tinypic.com/iwoeux.jpg

A DShK Heavy machinegun is the main heavy machinegun of Iran Army. Although a WW2 relict, it is still used alongside a somewhat more modern NSV as an AA weapon on tanks and vehicles. Here it is shown on a tripod mount, to be used by infantry squads. Also uses a variety of different ammo types - Standard, AP, HE and Tracer. Found to be particulary effective against light and even medium helicopters, and of course soft targets at long ranges.

http://i25.tinypic.com/2h7e9af.jpg

And finally, here we see the backbone of Iran's Armored forces, the T72. Armed with a 125 mm main gun, it can, with proper ammo, punch a huge hole in any western MBT, from more than 1 kilometre. It also has an autoloader, which makes a rate of fire higher than 10 rounds per minute, which probably makes 10 dead tanks :twisted: . Its side weapons are NSV Heavy machinegun, and PKM Coaxial machinegun.

Okay, thats all for now! Stay tuned for more updates! :realbig:

Will the weapons have realistic vaules and sounds(vehicles too)? Planned any trucks/cars/civilian vehicles?

HrcAk47
27-02-2008, 22:34
Of course, all weapons will have accurate sounds, thanks to C0ntrol who pretty much has all the sounds for even the weapons i am not sure they are real :x

As for weapons... well, we are a 3-man team, therefore we have 3 different opinions on how should weapons work. :lol:

Currently my plan is being used. If AK47 uses a 7,62x39 mm round, it will have range 39 and power 76,2. Range is then multiplied by 1.5 and we get a range of around 60 fow meters. Neat, huh?

As for other weapons... Well, i have been ordered to keep quiet for now. But we have somethin' nice in stock for you guys :realbig: .

And yes, some civilian stuff is being considered :)

http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/poz9Dtmp.jpg

So, most if it is desert MARPAT and some minor parts are with regular MARPAT. :) Hopefully you like it. Too bad it looks a bit distorted in the picture, but in reality it kicks ass (I hope.. :D) ;)

You can read more about upcoming maps in future devupdates.

DEVUPDATE 4

Alright, today we got again a massive update with lots of pictures.

First of all a good overview picture of what we have incoming.
http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/080316-1826-00.jpg

On this table we have FGM-172 SRAW, also known as Predator, Anti-Tank missile launcher and it's missile. It's more powerful than AT4 and has much longer range, which makes it a dead call for Iran's T-72's.
http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/080316-1826-01.jpg

Following we have LAW's follower M136 AT4, a shoulderfired 84mm Anti-Tank weapon manufactured by Swedish. It is one shot show so after you've fired it, there is no way to reload it so ammunition comes preloaded. It can quite easily knock out light vehicles, such as jeeps or APC's, but against modern tanks it will hardly stand a chance... It will also be provided with Anti-Personnel rockets which make it deadly against any infantry squad.

Also seen in the picture is M3 Carl-Gustav Anti-Tank missile launcher, but reports say that it might not see combat due to the introduction of Predator SRAW.
http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/080316-1827-01.jpg

Here we have the main weapons of the alliance, M16A4 and it's predecessor, the trusted M16A2 with M203 granade launcher attached. Most of the squads will carry the M16A4, but Grenadiers will be fitted with
M16A2/M203 combination.
http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/080316-1826-02.jpg

Ali has also prepared fine and dandy backbacks for the troops so they can fit in a bit more stuff than they normally could carry, this will be proven useful in the single player.
http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/080316-1826-03.jpg

Then we have the skins of the US troops, I have no idea how wrong or correct they are, the KEVLAR part has chocolade chip camo in it and the rest of the troop is covered in desert MARPAT camo. Picture also shows the M249 Squad Automatic Weapon, capable to mown the insurgency down in matter of seconds.
http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/080316-1826-04.jpg

Following USP .45, Silenced USP .45, M9 Beretta and it's silenced version and also M92F S.T.A.R.S. Custom 'Samurai Edge'. These will be the main pistols of US forces. The ammo packed in red boxes are JHP and in green FMJ and Codemaster HrcAk managed to actually get difference between the two ammo types ;) All of these clankers are made by Matty, points for him \o/
http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/080316-1826-05.jpg

Here we have Barret's famous M82A2. Maybe one of the best .50 caliber rifles in the world, capable of breaking down engines and unsuspicious enemies which happen to stand in the line of sight of US sniper ops team. M82 will fire several types of cartridges which include AP, HE, tracer, regular and HrcAk's Specialized Silver tipped bullets, incase you spot a werewolf.

http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/080316-1827-02.jpg

Also reinforcing the snipers we have M24 Sniper Weapon System, camouflaged version this time. This will be the regular sniper of US forces.
http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/080316-1827-04.jpg


After that we have M2HB, made for us by Matty. M2HB is one of the worlds most succesfull machine guns, behind it almost over 70 years of experience from world's most dangerous conflicts and wars. When you hear this baby singing, you better hope that you haven't sent any infantry in it's direction, it will tear that unit apart.
http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/080316-1827-09.jpg

The M998 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle aKa HMMWV or Humvee is the jeep of choice for US army. In US army there are several versions of HMMWV, but this time we'll show you only the troop carrier version, although there are rumours that other variants such as TOW and M2HB fitted versions would be on their way. HMMWV can reach up to 60 FoW speed units, which makes it a perfect choise to get that newly bought squad to the frontline.
http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/080316-1828-01.jpg

Finally, we present you the quarterback of the US armored forces, 69 tons of pure US luv - the Abrams. Armed with a 120 mm smoothbore L44 cannon, it can, with proper ammo punch through any tank... twice. Currently in use are the DU SABOT shell and a standard HE shell. Also an order has been set for the Canister shells, due to losses in urban combat. Other armament include a trusty ol' veteran of many wars, the M2HB Browning, and 2x a more modern weapon, the M240, one coaxial and other on pintle mount.

Abrams can tear roads at speed of 32 FoW speed units, which is only slightly slower than its current counterpart, T72. That lack of speed is more than countered by its thick armour. Only a few weapons in Iran arsenal can stand a chance of atleast scratching it, those are RPG7Vr Rounds, and modern Russian made 125 mm Tungsten Sabot rounds for T72. There have also been reports of Iran fielding the advanced Konkurs ATGM and RPG29, but those claims have not been confirmed.

Thank you for your kind words Gigi :!: :)

First of all, Eye for an eye will be released when it is done and ready for you to enjoy. Afterall you guys wouldn't probably have fun with version that is half done and gets old and updated every week. Atleast I think it's better to have one big release that is close to the final version, than the option I mentioned earlier. :)

The release will probably occur around the time Men of War is released. When the time comes, we will release two versions of the mod. One is compatible with Faces of War, but the main release will be for Men of War. From that on we will only focus on the Men of War version. We might release few patches to FoW too if need be and community asks for it. 8)

Second, I'm sorry to tell you that this beta is only internal and we have already picked the few lucky souls that are allowed to test the mod with us developers. :?

Ps. In that post HrcAk meant the MoW beta; one guy said that the mod looks interesting, but he had never even played FoW, so Ak directed him to register up for the MP Beta :yes:

Rossiya — svyashchennaya nasha derzhava,
Rossiya — lyubimaya nasha strana.

Tvoyo dostoyanye na vse vremena!



Thats right, today we present - Russia!

DEVUPDATE 7

After the succesful assault on Iran and carpet bombing of major cities, the country is left in dissaray, with numerous victims , with only minor detachments of Iran Army offering some sort of guerilla resistance.

World protests, but the US turn the deaf ear.

War observers from around the world notice a staggering increase in supply of heavy tanks and infantry units during the first year of occupation. For the first time since WW2, even the National Guard has been set on full alert, and sent to Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan.

But the question remains - Why?

This question answers itself.

On 1st September 2011, a massive sea-based assault over Caspian Sea takes place. Over 30 000 soldiers, with 400 heavy tanks and massive air support is to secure beacheads in Astrakhan, Derbent and Makhachkala.

This was apparently the plan all-along - Surprise assault on Russia.

Detachments of Russian Navy on Caspian sea stood their ground, but they proved no match for antiship bombers. With the bulk of the Russian Forces stationed on Western borders, strike on Caspian sea seems to be a soft spot. Only forces left to defend are the conscripts and reserve units with limited armor supply and virtually no hopes of relief from the main of the Russian army in atleast 3 days...

Here we see a group of Russian Reserve Forces, defending a railway crossing from US Black ops, set with the task of destroying.

Reserve Forces Grenadier, armed with AK74 + VOG30

Reserve Forces Machine Gunner, armed with Modernised PKM (new trigger mechanism, that nearly doubles the rate of fire)

http://i25.tinypic.com/2u7uhqb.jpg

A T72B of the Reserve Forces covering the rail tunnel. Note that T72B's actually pose more of a threat to US heavy tanks than the M version of Iran Army. And with the modernisation conducted in 2009, even the most secluded reserve T72B Batallions were equipped with tungsten APDSFS penetrators.

Yep, Ali has the BMP Series in the work, 2 and 3. Unfortunately, he is AFK most of the time, so Matty kicks in with his l33t modelling skills and saves the day. Currently our priority is to get T90 up, running and textured :)

Alright folks, once again the time has come.

DEVUPDATE 8

Today we present to you one more unit that you will see in the next release.

BMP-2

The mainstream APC of Iran's and Russian's ground forces. It was first introduced in the early 1980s but it is still one of the most well-known APCs in the world. It's three weapons pack punch to deliver almost anything to oblivion. First the 30 mm 2A42 autocannon which is also capable to engage flying things such as.. Well I think I'll leave that for another devupdate. It also has 7,64mm turret machine gun, PKT. But the best part is yet to come. The AT missile launcher with Kornet missiles as standard loadout. These tankbusters can ruin any Abramsers day within less than a second. This APC can also handle H2O enviroment and in EFAE you will be able to sail the seas, not literally though, with your BMP-2.

DEVUPDATE 11
Wow, these in these last few days alot of progress has been seen with the mod. I have managed to get 2 buildings into the game! This means that it should make it easier to make realistic irian-type cityscapes (although they are not destuctable...yet). It also means that in general maps will have a more "modern" feel to them. I am also in the process of developing lots of different skins and interchangable counterparts, so buidlings can be used over and over without looking too repetitive..enjoy..

DEVUPDATE 12

Hi, today i will show you most of my work since the release of 0.9.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/th_2rr79zk.png (http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/2rr79zk.png)
First we have the L85A2 this is the standard assault rifle of the British forces.

Next we have the L86A2 LSW (Light Support Weapon). This will be issued to 1 man in each squad to give the squad some long range firepower.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/th_34e99xz.png (http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/34e99xz.png)
Up next is the L110A1 Minimi. This will be issued to 1 man per squad to help boost there firepower.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/th_1zdrzgx.png (http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/1zdrzgx.png)
Next is the L22A2 carbine. It is a shorter version of the L85A2 and will be issued to tank crews.

The Challenger 2 MBT. It has the best armour, longest range and is the most accuratebut its gun is less powerful. Texture is courtesy of the Project Reality Mod team kudos to them :realbig:
http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/th_wqrfqv.png (http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/wqrfqv.png)

The other vehicle is the Landrover Defender 110 it carries 8 men.

Now for another new nation ......Germany

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/th_rse6o9.png (http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/rse6o9.png)

Here we have the weapons of the basic German troops. The G36 and MG36.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/th_20a9fub.png (http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/20a9fub.png)
Here we have the G36C and its variants. first is the standard G36C which will be used by tank crews next is the G36C with aimpoint which will be used by German elite troops and finally the G36C with aimpoint and silencer which will be Used by German Special Forces.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/th_2md2m3d.png (http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/2md2m3d.png)
Next we have the MG4. This will be used by German Elite machine gunners.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/th_10ekeu1.png (http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/10ekeu1.png)

Here we have the G3 and G3SG/1 the German forces will not use the G3 instead it will be used by the Iranian Special Forces. However the G3SG/1 will be used as the German marksman rifle.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/th_9gvfjd.png (http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/9gvfjd.png)
Here we have the G22 sniper rifle you may say that it is just the L96A1 but there are some differences.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/th_2h5sj5t.png (http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc143/matty_148/2h5sj5t.png)

Actually the Challenger 2 is just as powerful as the M1A2 Abrams MBT, the only difference is the length of the berrel of the gun..its a quarter longer then the M1A2 witch gives it a 3 mile gun range, longer ranger then the T-90.

Dude... what is your obsession!?! :x
If someone says that X tank is more powerful or has longer range or anything that makes the Abrams look as if it aint the best in the world you quickly post and say that "its just as powerful\its the best in the world" type of thing... its annoying already. :|

DEVUPDATE 13

Hello everyone!

Guess what - no pictures today!

Instead... we prepared something better. First EFAE Trailer!

You can check it out here (note its a low res version):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiEkJkdNius

aaaand a better res version:

http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?doc ... 8&hl=en-GB (http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=6446879233461946778&hl=en-GB)

Trailer shows a combat situation and some new weapons in action. Story goes like this - Russian soldiers try to storm out American paratroopers out of a burned out town. Streets are obstructed and the city itself is devastated - what better place for an ambush?

Enjoy!

For the EFAE Team,

Holy F***!!! BEST UPDATE EVER!!! Oh god I love Heckler & Koch weapons!
G36C is my favorite, followed by XM8 (Can you add this weapon, just for the greater good? :insane: ). and then the G3 (Tho, I have more of a "fetish" for the Norwegian version, AG-3).

Thank you very much for adding H&K weapons! I just love them! :grin: :insane:

Well as our main objective is Men of War I can't really say for sure when EFAE will be in 1.0 condition. Just to cheer you up, we've got a few new vehicles already ingame and working!

EFAE has also been tested on the whateverbeta already and we've managed to get it working quite decently. Of course we do have some problems, but hey what mod wouldn't have those?

During the last month we've had a few conversations inside the team regarding wheter or not to continue our work on EFAE. Result: Affirmative, lets kick in the high gear!

First good news; Hughbado has started to work on a new M1A2 Abrams. We decided that the one Ali made was far too highpoly and difficult to texture (+20 different texture files) so he has been working his magic in 3Ds Max for about a week now and here's the result:

http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/th_render2.jpg (http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/render2.jpg) http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/th_render3.jpg (http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/render3.jpg)

And the cherry on top:

http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/th_render4.jpg (http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/render4.jpg) http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/th_render5.jpg (http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w81/C0ntrol/render5.jpg)


The bad news is that unfortunately we've totally lost our contact with Ali the modeler. Last time I spoke to him he told me and HrcAk that he's working in 3 jobs simultaneously...

Unfortunately no. But I can tell you that our next release will be on MoW. At the moment the team is busy working with new vehicles and new soldier models (ACU :)).

This is final announcement regarding EFAE.

Due to internal disagreements regarding EFAE path, we came to a conclusion that the mod needs to shut down. As of today, no mod work will be continued. No new content will be released without the permission of its actual maker. Team is being disbanded.

For the EFAE team,
~HrcAk47

P.S. All topics regarding EFAE are to be locked. Wiki content is to be moved to "Dead" subsection. Download of 0.9b version is to continue, but without any tech support

All content of 0.9b remains property of its actual makers. Permission is required to reuse them.

I confirm the info posted above. After quite a few discussions me and HrcAk decided that the team could not continue working as it is and with community's lacking interest.

Thanks to everyone who showed even some interest our mod at some point and for you who played the beta and posted bugs.

For the EFAE team,

What about releasing the stuff you made till now? :P

And then maybe some other modder can wrap it all up and release it?

Read the first post.

I, for one, will not release anything of my content anytime soon.

Hi. Note that the EFAE 0.9 is for Faces of war, not for Men of war. You wont be able to play on MoW. There will be no further versions for MoW, unfortunately.

As for Stalker mod, I am partaking in a closed beta, and i can say it is pretty close to an open beta release :)

I thought the beta you released a year ago looked promising. I was really looking forward to the next version. Hopefully you guys can release your work individually so it's not a waste of everyone's time including those who read this thread anticipating the next release.

I don't think it is fair to say the team could not continue working "with community's lacking interest". That makes it sound like you are blaming the community for not continuing with your mod. First, I would say that your mod has received more attention than any other besides WilsonB's - just look at your 20 page thread here and 15 page thread in the mods board. Second, you generate most interest when you release something and you haven't released anything in over 12 months. Finally, it's nice to have community interest (I know I appreciate it), but no mod can survive if it requires sustained interest in order for the authors to keep working - you really have to want to do the modding whether anyone likes it or not.

Sorry for the long post, but I appreciate your work and I am annoyed that it is stopping in part because of "community's lacking interest".

sorry for being a bit picky but if you have been wanting to support the mod then why have you decided to only post after is closed :?
anyhow im sure alot of benefit will come from the mod closing, as modders hopefully we will have a new found intrest in whatever we will move onto next, if we can start again we can build upon the knowledge we have gained previously. the team just needs some motivation really (plus, for me anyway, finding time to do modeling nowadays is becoming tricky)

Jason1
15-03-2009, 22:55
But that's my point - what does it mean to "support" a mod unless you are actually working on it (and why should a modder have any expectation of that)? (though I did post a few notes of encouragement on this thread as did many others. :)) But I get your points about motivation and time. Best wishes to you guys and here's hoping you get it back! :toast:

Jason1, my point was not that the community wouldn't have showed any interest towards EFAE but seeing the interest drop to almost zero after every little update we gave wasn't fun to look at.

EFAE was an interesting story but sometimes sh*t just hits the fan and this happens. Generally our plot got out of our hands and it would've been almost if not impossible to get back to the tracks.

We'll make this up to you in the past.

Jason1, my point was not that the community wouldn't have showed any interest towards EFAE but seeing the interest drop to almost zero after every little update we gave wasn't fun to look at.

Really don´t know what you expected from the community... How much attention were you expecting? A minimum of ten new posts each day? From what I´ve seen on the Russians forums, your mod was quite eagerly awaited. But just as Jason1 wrote, if you don´t release anything for a long time, interest will drop to zero, and even if you do release new stuff every second week, you will have a drop in postings between each release. Sorry, but thats life.

I haven´t been giving much feedback to this EFAE project myself, simply because I don´t care about any post-WW2 mods. You´ve made some very nice stuff, but since I ain´t interested in using it, I don´t care to post in these threads. But to blame the community for not showing enough interest to encourage you to continue making your mod... that´s the wrong way to go and a pretty ugly blow below the waist if you ask me.

No recent updates simply equals no new post in the thread from the community.

I think the interest has been there from the start, but why should people post a comment everytime you come with an update?

See the thread about my mod, last post was posted on Jan.11, do I care? No.
I'm making the mod because I want it myself, not because the players want it.

I wouldn't give a damn if that just 1 player said he would enjoy it, I would make the mod nevertheless.
Tho is a little different since you guys are using a new scenario, but the popularity is still there.

I now and then come over some pictures on Xfire showing your mod being played, but right now, not many are playing the mod because of Men of War.

I don't want to start a cold front discussion, I just say it from my position, both as a player and a modder.
:)


And I agree with Zeke on the part where you can't really expect to get X posts each day just to keep the mod alive.
What if you ever get a post on every project your doing? What are you going to make then?

Not every modification gets a post everyday, then you'll need an update everyday which very few mods have (Now I'm talking about every mods out there).

This is not about making the most popular mod, but making the perfect one.
Its about the graphical stuff that you add, the idea, the text, the material, the bits, etc etc etc.

Look at Wilson's mod, the thread has been here since July 2007, but since he shows very much new stuff, like Helis, he gets popularity.
I'm not saying you guys didn't add anything new, you did. Modern Warfare.
But you've had your time when the mod came out and some months after.
How long is it since the 1st version came out? Its nearly a year! You cannot expect the same popularity now that you had then.

Release patches and new versions shortly, not nearly a year since the 1st release.

Right, all of your points stand, but shutdown is final. As of yesterday, EFAE is considered dead and buried.

We aren't paid to mod, and are not obliged to release a thing. We do as we like. And we did what we decided to do. Big deal. Get over it people.

At the moment of deletion, EFAE folder weighed 1,2 GB (FoW content) and 800 MB (MoW Converted content).

Regarding Russian community, they'll see our content in Stalker mod. A lot of our weapons will appear there. :)

And can we get a lock here? Please?

Nice going. Love the weapons loadout. But still need the rest of the assets (vehicles basically)

Great work.

For now the vehicles are the most bugged part in the mod so we decided to leave them out.

Nanaki

I have been able to successfully impliment the three vehicles.

The biggest issue with them is the guns and the ammunition.

HrcAk47
06-10-2009, 07:54
Vehicles are pointless. Even if you manage to implement them, volumes will be sh*t and that will make T72 impervious to nukes and Abrams succeptible to bunny farts.

They'll need a complete rework before that can be done.

AnEvilGuy
06-10-2009, 21:24
Soo... will it just be the Abrams and the T72 or are there going to be other tanks... tgeh T-72 vs Abrhams is getting old... very few MW games have t-80s and 90s




...Abrams succeptible to bunny farts...

So wanna hear the bonus reason about me not putting tanks in the 1.1 build? 'Cause i don't have problems coding them with balance. I have problem with special people seeing an ep from Future Weapons (or even worse = Wikipedia) and thinking they got infused with divine wisdom of knowing-it-all about modern weapons, tanks included. American modern weapons and tanks. I don't want to namedrop, but noone has ever complained about T72 being balanced below its power. Ever.

Basically, the data i collected from the feedback of alphatesters and betatesters and other special people (I'm tolerant, mister Ngvede, sir :D) tells us that Abrams should be impervious to anything from all sides, with a cannon dismounted from Death Star, also able to hit a football in flight, and to be fast as a greased lightning. T72 should be made out of corrugated alluminium plates, from recycled Coca cola cans on tracked Trabant chassis and with an oversized Mosin rifle with a crooked barrel instead of a cannon. And also T72 should cost more than Abrams because even a smallest negative difference in cost would mean there would be more T72s in the field effectively ruining their myth of superAbe.

Go check out EFAE topics, 3/4 of the posts are about tanks "not being the way they should be". And that's something that goes on my nerves.

Saddest thing was, that Abe was dominating T72 in 0.9 EFAE. Problem is that players expected it would go win wars for them... And never did i see them trying to establish field of view, never did i see their troops scouting for my tanks... However i did see tons of ragequits after a sneaky flanking operation with aforementioned T72.

And, for now, no tanks = problem solved. And it's gonna remain that way untill we get enough weapons for each tank to be countered and killed in 3 different ways.

But that's just me. I love ranting. :love:

Hope the tanks will be added soon with new version.

Ludovsky
14-10-2009, 14:50
.... and whilst people rant about Abe VS T-72, the Leopard II and the Merkava just shakes their head...

And the char Leclerc keeps itself busy with it's auto-loader.

(Also, kudo on the Merkava for being the only tank I ever got to see an escape hatch on. It's always interesting to see how different people generate different philosophy even in regard to stuff like tank. In the case of the Israeli's Merkava design: A good crew will always outweight a good tank that can be built anew. So let's make a tank that puts the crew's survivability at it's core, first and foremost).

What type of t-72 was in the beta release? t-72m is a piece of junk compared to a modern counter part but t-90 is a great tank and would be able to take on a m1a2 head on, the t-90 can't be penetrated by a tow missile while a t-72 can be. But even a t-72b is an opponent for a m1a2 and challenger 2. But a country like iran might have t-80's but there main force will be zulfiqar or t-72's and t-55's, and not much is known about the zulfiqar so it would be difficult to include.
Tanks would be more vulnerable if helicopters where in the game, a hellfire or vikhr missile can take out a tank easily, and cars would be excellent, especially uparmored give a use to those rpgers.

15-10-2009, 00:48
notice how there are pretty much 3 types of weapons talked about in the world, USA, RUSSIA, and Nato/UN, 2 of which are being used in this mod, so why not just add the last one, if you can would m ake there more nations

cpl.fernandez
15-10-2009, 01:19
you mean the eu right? u.s.a. is part of U.N. and nato so eu would be a better thing to add. But the U.K. is already in-game and they are in europe. Most notable european nations that are diffrent would be U.K.,Germany, Italy, and France. They have original Vehicles.

jimopl
15-10-2009, 01:32
i know that and all, but i meant that most weapons you hear of are from those things seeing as thought the united states acts more on its own then with nato/UN, so yeah i guess it would be EU weapons for the UN/Nato faction...
