    What is a mod?

    in T-72: Balkans on Fire!

    Posted

    MOD is a MODIFICATION of some parts of a game

    Back in the day, making things from scratch... I.e. a duke nukem game turned into a vietnam shooter would be called a Total Conversion = T.C. and a Mod was just editing some of the files... I.E. Making jetpack useable whenever, rpg fires 100x faster... guys ahve more health... sounds were changed... added a few new guns etc. all mods...

    'Total conversion' Never hung around though... so people just use 'mod' now... E.G.

    Counterstrike is a Mod for half-life

    Your soundmod is a Mod for T-72...

    Both are modifications... doesn't mean squat in what the difference is... YOU WIN lol

    In Demo where is the enemy tank hid and NO deformable landscape?

    Yeah i dont like how the buildings destroy and how suddenly you can loose your tread for no apparent reason... (granted i drive like a crazy s.o.b. so lol maybe jumping a 40 ton tank isnt a good idea? lol)

    But overall the graphics for the ammount of PHYSICS involved in trajectories etc can be understandable... people need to realize what else the CPU is doing besides processing the eye candy!!

    And using the shovel thing to dig out positions it makes the terrain blob and do weird things... and it wont dig after a while in the same spot... any tips on how to use that or is deformable terrain messed up in the demo?

    I also just got it and am happily driving around. Very immersive so far. I like the fact that I can control the engine by sound, just like a car with a manual stick. Makes things a lot easier when driving, and speaks well of the simulation of the engine. Graphics are very nice too - a few jaggies on the horizon but plenty of brush and grasses and the like to catch the eye.

    Oddly, the tracking site never registered the package, so I didn't know it would show up today. Luckily it fit in the mailbox.

    Robear: Don't tell me you like driving sims too?

    Have you figured out the gunner directions and how to keep them on the screen? </font>

    Thanks for the reply... Battlefront.com smile.gif

    Anyway... if all they're knocking out is an installation glitch then that means the demo is most likely ready... unless some gameplay problem crops up, I'd bet its safe to estimate sometime within the next week at most?

    Can't wait!

    LAN play, problems and solutions...

    May have to do with that program you are using... do you have 2 pcs in your home? Try setting up a lan with that... if not... you'll have to wait for someone to see if LAN game works correctly for them and then you can rule out that it is the program you downloaded...

    So... just to clarifiy... could someone test LAN in an actual LAN setup to make sure it works?

    I'd bet 99% that its the program you're using though...
