As far as I know , UC 1.13 is on the way , so probably no need to do the original , read also that DL is coming too , that was a good mod as I remember , so perhaps that should be put on here ? Think that's most of the larger mods , though many map / weapon mods still out there in cyberspace .Perhaps Shanga could gather these mods together at JAG ? Not a lot in the download section there . Anyway , keep up the good work Smile

I think you "should" add both DL and UC original here. Why wouldn't you? There still great games even with out any 1.13 influence.

@ marko

Not sure where else this would go. So it's ok here for the time being.

@Marlboro Man:LOL I think marko was referring to my user name... maybe i should have thought about it a bit longer.

@Lockie

My desktop is covered in .rar fies etc. at the moment as i am double checking downloads, it can be a bit slow installing & reinstalling JA/JAUB to make sure the MODS work ok.

@ the moment a rough list of MODS i am preparing entries for are as follows:

Night OPS

Back 2 Business: Trying to track down a German to English Patch, i know one exists but have had no luck yet.

MFM 1.13

UC

DL

Rubicon

After i post these entries i will go to work on more weapons/game play Mods like HAM etc...

Thanks again to everyoe for all the encouragement and interest, i'm glad to give a small bit back to a great community.

I would wait a little on the "current" mods, like HAM just yet. A Lot of those current 1.13 mods will "eventually" get included in 1.13. Mainly Zilpin's spread shot mod and his Hot Key externalization work which is in early development. The externalized Airport mod. And so on. Smile

Just a suggestion. Smile

Because you can do what ever you wish. Wink

But then again, maybe adding them to your list will get them to the fore front quicker. Wink

Hey Off _ Topic can you put numbered links with a short Description next to them in the first post. The links obviously go to the correct post in the thread for more info as that will speed up the process of searching no end Smile

(PS I'm sure you know this but to get the links right click the icon just above your name in the correct post and choose copy link location (for firefox) or copy shortcut (in IE). Then use the URL tags to hide the url like this {url=http:\\....}LINK{/url} with square brackets of course Wink

Well, a positive side effect of starting this guide is that i can upload a lot of files myself if they get dropped.

P.S. If anyone has translated files for JA2UB Back To Business it would be great if they could upload them.

The 800 x 600 res works well , good work in finding it !This should give these mods loads of playability now , will it work with UB mods ?
Fantastic if it does :ok:

EDIT : Vengeance , Reconquista and Bloody Grounds all ok with 800 x 600 .

@Lockie:

Yeah, it's pretty cool. I was happy to find that one, like you say, it's another reason to play these great MODs.I don't have much experience with this mod so if you could report any glitches i don't find, that would be appreciated. I did notice the Parachute item in vengeance had the wrong image, but that could be it for all i know so far. I plan on playing through one myself in 800x600.

Quote:

I don't think so, i only had a quick trial and it went horribly wrong.I'll see what i can find.Happy Gaming...

I've read that this mod works with JA2, UB, and Fallout, so i need to experiment a bit before i know for sure

Parachute image was ok , little too far downscreen , but I read a post by Khor ( he's the animator ?) that it could be fixed , but hardly seems worth changing , looks good as is .

Are you sure you entered the correct location...[color:#006600]C:\Program Files\Jagged Alliance 2 Gold Deidranna Lives[/color]. Yours could be different, depends on what you named it on install.

The modder Jazz seems to keep himself well up on v1.13, he normally incorporates any changes to the S.V.N. build fairly quickly.

It doesn't appear to work with UB full stop.I've been looking around for a UB equivalent, no joy yet :sadyellow:

Maybe the original Russian MOD works on UB, I'll check it out.

That's probably it , although I have it in another (spare)drive and did redirect , I'll give it another go tonight . Does that mean I shouldn't be unzipping those password protected files ?

I'm being dumb but how can the 800x600 work with other mods? I tried a version of MFM in 800x600 & it looked nice but (a) it was back to the vanilla weaponry with no way of editing as JA2IE etc wouldn't recognise the 800x600 (b) it was back to the vanilla strategically and would not recognise map.bin or SME-edit when I tried to correct it. What did I do wrong?

@Lockie:

That's cool about Bloody Grounds. I hope i wasn't too eager with this 800x600 MOD,The Scorp reckons it might cause problems in the long run of a modded game with regards items/RPC'c.

Don't know... i had a look at what files are installed and it only affects a limited amount of data files. I hope it's not a bust, i'm going to run through a 800x600 mod for a bit today & see how it goes...

@Will:

Are you trying it on your MFM 1.13 conversion? It only works with pre-1.13 non source code mods if that helps...

P.S.Can you post that new map for MFM(Tracona?) again, Lockie cleaned the other thread before i had a chance to incorporate it. Thanks

It was the 1.07 MFM not the 1.13. I had the 800x600 thing knocking around and wanted to see if I could make MFM work with it. Maps, characters, palette,tilesets etc all fine but weaponry and strategic garrisons not MFM but Vanilla. It was annoying because I had once intended MFM to be an 800x600 mod.

I never uploaded those two MFM-Tracona maps & prof.dat yet. I'll get on it soon. JA2 MFM will also have a full 1.07 re-release at some point with various fixes to exe (coolness problems) missing radar maps (where a change to tileset makes it necessary for map I didn't otherwise edit e.g. snow), fine tuned map.bins, an additional map etc

Hey will,

Maybe it's an old version of the 8x6, the one i uploaded is 1.20...just a guess..

I haven't tried it on your MOD yet, I'll try an install today with 1.07 MFM, i am going to install the 8x6 first & then MFM to see if that makes a difference.

In the basic tests i have done i just dropped it over a modded Ja2... this way it shouldn't overwrite any of the new files :crossed:

On a side note: I want to put up an entry for MFM 1.07 today, does the one year patch do away with the need for some of the earlier fixes like MFM upgrade/MFM Fixed Maps or are they all needed? Sorry, i'm being lazy...

As was I, I think. That's why I want to do a full re-release at some point*. Just to be safe you need everything always ensuring where there are two or more of something (e.g. a particular map) that you have only kept the most recent.

* and a seperate 1.13 re-release where certain maps have been pushed in the other direction because it's functionally a whole different game with militia allowed etc.

the scorpion

I think what will gates wrote in the thread also applies to vengeance.

These old mods had their weaponry hacked into the exe, it had weapon selection in the exe, rpc face coords are hacked into the exe, removal of rocket rifle code, parts of the strategic map/ enemy stuff is in the exe, the rest in map.bin that might not work (as will sais)

800x600 basicly is a custom exe, so whatever was in the exe of each particuliar mod is overwritten by 800x600, which in regards to items placed in maps (UC will have a massive problem with this i guess)and so on can cause quite some havoc.

Whatever is outside of the exe, like maps, prof.dat, pal.dat, itemsdesc... should work okay, so people can actually build hybrids of sorts, but most mods that come with custom.exe will be seriously changed by the 800x600 exe.

Sorry Lads, it looks like i was too eager with this (lesson learnt).

I guess the good news is any JA2 MoD without it's own exe can be played using this. Mods with their own exe are playable but as The Scorpion stated will be a hybrid. Whether that makes them worth playing is another thing.

Hey Schein,

LoL, where to start... it's great to have someone like yourself to keep me on my toes :rifle: , thanks for letting me know about the links. I'll fix them all sometime today.

Schein

I have uploaded a "sog_je_sound" file (for the Add-On by Jona) to Hoenir some time ago, which adds the battlesnds, npc_speech and speech file for the following characters from JA2:

I was going to put up the sound files at some point, i was trying to find an English version.Sadly i don't think there is one, if i have the time i might put one together myself.

Patches:
- delayepid.rar
- N7-Patch.zip
- NO1.0FTNeyros.rar
- no10fix3.zip (all here on my hard disk, if you want to test them, I could upload the files to Rapidshare?; I

Just gave it a go at home , poor results : off centre screens , item mix-ups , etc. , this was after installing 800x600 res patch, then using original Vengeance exe . ( was trying to see if was still playable in original res )not recommended . New res 800x600 looks ok , obviously some items mixed up , but playable .
