Mood: Not Bad

Many thanks for the advertisement, LW! DFBHD/TS is still not dead. Release will happen in February to be precise, but the exact day is a secret.
The mod will contain some new items, many reskinned stock objects, woodland and snow camos for the player and the friendly AI soldiers, a few
reskinned stock terrains colormaps, some "secret" models from the very first DFBHD beta demo of August 2002, and last but not least, thanks to the
joint efforts of Blade from Nova Outpost and of yours truly, for the first time in DFBHD, this mod will contain 1:1 conversions of all the terrains
from DFX and JO/JOE, as well as terrain conversions from DFLW, DFTFD, DF2, Comanche 4, and Armored Fist 3, with most terrains being edited to look
better for the old DFBHD old game engine (different detail maps, new grass textures, etc.). Mod size is over 2GB, but with an installer much of it
will be compressed.
Moreover the AI has been slightly improved both in damage and accuracy. Stock singleplayer missions from BHD and TS have been edited to fix known bugs
such as bad object placement and wrong events, and some missions use more items, including the ones I reskinned from stock objects. No new weapons at
the moment, but with Baldo The Don's permission, the mod contains his awesome weapon sights mod.
Mod is far from being finished, I have more things planned for the future (I need some help for 3d modelling), so the coming release will be a sort of
beta that will contain everything I said above, but fixes and changes may happen to the mod for other future releases. If you have any questions,
please post them here at this topic, or at LoneWolf's site (you need to register an account at his site before permission to post is granted). Stay
tuned!

Thanks tony991! Mod will be coming in the end of the next week, it will be released as is, since other changes may and will occur after release. The
number of terrains present will keep map makers busy, I only wished I could add more items but I didn't have enough time. That will be for another
release.
In other news, are those below your signature your maps? I played them, I enjoyed them a lot. Maybe in the future I could add items so that my mod
would be mostly compatible with Terranova EXP, but I'm not going to include its terrains.
And BTW, your avatar image... Are you a fan of the great The Wall album? I am.
