Ask the [DEV]s a (?) - Part 2

[<account detail removed>]

What you guys have done here is fantastic! Especially saving the game from the EA axe and going fully independent with the new patch. Definitely worth saving, imho.

Not really a huge deal, but the 1st person hand models in BF2 have always bugged me. I am always distracted because I can't help fixating on the weirdly fat thumb and the skinny wrist. I was wondering how difficult would it be for me to make new more realistic "schmexy" hands like the ones in BF3 for BF2?
I used to be an art major in college and I would be happy to make new ones if it isn't a ridiculous amount of work. (Realistically I may not have enough free time and I am pretty lazy too, lol.)
Would I be able to just make a single new model or would I have to tweak all the animations too?
If something like this is even feasible, what tools would I need to make new models for PR?

AMAZING !

THANK YOU !


Question:

Normaly the coop servers come with the new version just in time.
With the update to 1.2 there are no more coop servers to be found with the ingame tool.
Is there a known problem that the coop servers dont work with 1.2 ?

afaik the new maps have got COOP enabled, so I don't see why the COOP servers won't run. Perhaps they are just updating or something.

[K4on]

COOP servers were disabled to be listed in the server browser. We fixed that issue.

Could one of Kamishiya's layers get the weather of the Black Gold's Ins layer ?

I must say I really love it, however Im definitely not a big fan of the Black Gold's Ins layer, so I thought it'd be nice to have it on more desert maps, such as Kamishiya.

What happened to the Vadso loading music? It was the best.

Agreed, 90000% more fitting for a Norsk enviorment,.

[Mineral]

We didn't had the license for it. 1.0 had all licenced music(that we didn't have licenced) removed.

Also, what happened to the 0.9 Muttrah and Fallujah soundtrack, it sounded great and fits some maps that currently have dupicate tracks (ala Jabal/Sbeneh).

[Kerryburgerking]

Will you give the germans the Fennek and the Boxer?

[WhiteRhino]

Is Billoute still working on Drought map?

[obpmgmua]

Will you ever bring back retired weapons? Like the M14 DMR, L119A1, AK101?

Dev's are literally hitler for changing the .9 load music form Al Basrah.

Warning given. That's a bit much. - Spec

What happened to the newspaper loading screens from when Op. Marlin was first released?

[Rudd]

I think we decided on a different format after that point that got applied to all maps

generally the thinking behind the format is just to show the map abit and let the players have free thought, not trying to live up to any scenario we put up but to naturally create their own tactics etc

Is Billoute still working on Drought map?

I've not seen him for a while, but I hope he is! He's an excellent mapper and the last teasers were good.

Will you ever bring back retired weapons? Like the M14 DMR, L119A1, AK101?

if there's ever cause for it, like a faction that could use it I guess, but doubtful on AK101. The L119A1 won't be back for British forces, but it is ingame as the c7 for NL and CAN factions afaik?

[KillJoy[Fr]]

Not a question but want to say a big Thank you about all the work done for making this old school game so fun, i'll be still amazed about that little strength community you have made !

[tankninja1]

What happened to Jungle Fire? Did it become Xiangshan or is it still buried in the WIP universe?

[Rabbit]

Yep, its Xiangshan now.

Is there anyway to delete you're account, I'm not leaving or something but just seeing 75 000 members while most of them of them are generally left accounts is irritating me.

[Mineral]

Do you mean forum accounts?

How is this irritating you? I don't think we ever delete accounts but on request all personal information can be removed.
