Hi,

i'm very pleased to announce the first release of the WW1 mod.

Thanks to :

My fellow citizen Spad for his great help : tanks, armoured cars and truck basic models, plus Spad (of course...) and Nieuport planes.

Vilas for allowing me to use his WW1 weapon packs (including static MG's).

Shinkansen and to the former Operation Somme Mod : British, Russian and German planes, plus the flags pack, a sound pack and a WW1 submarine.

Reyhard for the Artillery barrage script and the trench that I modified to build my model.

Anzac for the Vickers machinegun.

Dingmatt for his gas script.

HxCxFxL for his sound pack and his GREAT support.

AtStWalker for the flamethrower coming from the FSJ pack.

Thank you very much for your hard work!

GREAT!! gonna try it out tonight!!

Downloading ProfT!

This looks so bloody cool.

So many units, so few time

Congrats on the release ProfTournesol! As always you did great work!

Congrats ProfT! Thank you and your your colleagues for continuing to add fresh and interesting mods to OFP. The community appreciates your efforts. All the best.

Please, somebody give these guys another mirror. Dont now if its normal, but the first time I tried to download it was around 5 kb/s. "Rapid"share my ass!

Apart from that, 7 years old and still going...Wow!

Thats great. Big applause for you prof.Tournesol cuz you pulled this project off on your own from the very beginning to the end

I heard sceptic voices of some malcontents that idea of bringing WWI to ofp is pointless. Screw them, now we got full project standing proud.

Are you planning to add some more features to this mod or just leave it alone, like it is right now ?

Now, a dream comes true after all these years!

Merci, ProfTournesol

(trying to download)

diggin

GREAT JOB PROF!

I am just after ANZAC and UK, but it is one of the best mod ever seen for this game!

Only bug:

1. Sound of Vickers is not working property.

THe only thing I dont like is that e.g. Enfield must be loaded every one shot! That is stupid and should be fixed! Right now: 9/10 .Testing further!

OK, testing finished. Not used in battle (yet). Anyway, be prepared for some missions!

Bugs:

Some sounds e.g. Nagant pistol are not working.

Scopes for Sniper rifles looks like M16 ones.

Focke Wulf Weight is bad. He is trung down after spawning

That is all! Overall score: 9+/10

Mmh, in fact the "reloading" action is here to simulate bolt-action riffles. And the SMLE wasn't a semi automatic riffle, was it ? I know there were several kinds of bolt action depending on the type of riffle (mauser, enfield etc.). But we only have one anim available in Ofp. The only other way would be to script the bolt action.

Not by myself, but some of the players around here could release some missions...

Great, dloading!

for years? i've been looking at the wip thread and now finally its here, a big thank you to all involved. Although these days im not playing games, OFP is not uninstalled on my pc, and i seriously doubt ill ever uninstall it

Yes, but you have stop al the time etc. Reloading bolt actions is not hard while running so you should use normal magazines.

Impressive. Very impressive. I tried it out for 1/2 hour and I love it!

But ProfT, you could ask guys from LibMod for their animations of bolt-action rifles.

AWSOME WORK ANYWAY!!

YEAH!

PS. THX for music addon bennie1983!

Cool thank you for this mod. One question how many squads can you place on the field without the mod becoming laggy?
