Tripwire actually always lies and later on changes the facts. And if Rising Storm costs anything I won't be getting it.

The hell is wrong with you? Germans may be gunned down millionwise and you cry about Germans shooting Polish soldiers?
Polish resistance, just btw, Warsaw Radio streamed that Polish tanks are standing in front of Berlin on evening of 1st Sept. 39, that's not resistance, that's called attack. Anyway it is a game, hello!?!?

Feldwebel Reznov should wear a helmet instead of a M35 Officer hat. Germans actually always wore helmets in combat. btw anyone fancy chinstraps? Just noticed that they are mostly open. When wearing one I usually close them, they are there for a reason :)

Can we hope for a V1.2 that fixes some bugs like the Emperors and Nuke Overlords unable to engage infantry unless you upgrade them with gattling or tac nukes.
Also on Tao's map all nukes have a countdown of 11:00, even the player ones. Bug or not?

Also I'd be really looking forward to fight Ironside, Deathstrike and Fai in the Generals challenge! Is there hope for them getting a map of their own?

Not too long ago someone posted Allied Zombie screens. I was wondering if this can be released as a new version of AxisPlayer or just as a mini mod separated from the main mod.

thanks!

Yes in the original campaign Randall might be but to be honest I've not played CoD2 for ages without the Wehrmacht Mod. It's just too much fun to keep kicking allied *****, that I never changed back until now. :D
In the Mod he's named "Forgotten Hero", and he's a random guy, mostly a greatcoat trooper but also the fat Germans and standard troopers too. Feldwebel Randall is not doing the rescue in the German mod. Anyway, like I was saying. If you could make the Russian officer look like Reznov you could make the soldier on the Reichstag an officer too, I suppose.

I only got some experience with CoD2 modding, so yes, it might not be that simple or it might not work at all.

Well if you guys remember Call of Duty 2's D-Day assault, the soldier dragging you to safety is a special one. He is also (currently) selected from the entire German models but it seems that you can set up a certain class. Just make Red Army officers look like Reznov and make the soldier at the end be an officer. And voilà, we should have our "beloved" Reznov ready for the meatgrinder :D

Well every ones has preferences and I'd say it's more important to attend school than having a mod for WaW done. How ever is that moron who voted -1 on Cpt. Wesley's post has no idea about life.

Red Orchestra: Heroes of Stalingrad, yeah I too have been waiting since 2006 for a serious RO successor as RO:Ostfront never really made it for me. I'm not sure what will await us with the Axis Campaign on RO2. I'd suggest you the following: If you have time go on with the Zombie Mode. RO2 doesn't have that. Also there's been some real investment into this, too much in my eyes to throw it away. Get Axis soldiers fighting off undead hordes, that'll be sure fun, if you are overdosed of realism shooting on RO2. Get a different models going and please have them wear feldgrau, maybe you can add a fallschirmjäger. So I'm tracking the mod here so I know when new things are up.

ad to 5.: It looked great to have some dead Russians there too in the fountain. It made it look like a really messy fight was going on between Germans and Russians.

The thing is kinda simple, every player can do this on his own, so no need for a permission required if it's not part of the mod. Now what we need Cpt. Wesley to do is: Change the headwear of Axis Reznov to either an M43 Feldmütze or to a M40 Stahlhelm. Reznov is part of the fighting squad and therefore he shouldn't be wearing an officer's hat. If it's not possible to change the Richthofen model/body, he should be using another German officer model to work with. Again there the headgear needs to be changed. And yes, there's no interference with the Wehrmacht Officer skin either.

Basically the same goes for the Wehrmacht troopers. Current models are wearing camo trousers and fieldjackets. If the models were swapped for standard fieldgrey wearing models any skin Wehrmacht skin could easily applied by the players.

I this is what I know so far, please correct me if I'm mistaken.

I suggested this one previously but I'm glad more people like it. :)

Some comrades thought of a Feldmütze M43 for Reznov. I'd also recommend the Hauptmann uniform skin that can be found on filefront as "Wehrmacht officer". The M43 cap is nice but historically ... well Germans actually always wore their helmets in combat. Volksgrenadier, Volksturm units and yes Mountain Troopers wore M43s but not the regular fighting units. BUT CoD is a game and an M43 would give Axis Reznov a badass look and that's simply it.

And I hope that Wesley is close to the next release, I only got like 3 weeks left of holidays and then university starts again, and this - as it looks - without a single dead undead Allied soldier. :/

It's not that I wanna push you but I'd be really thankful if I can kill some thousand undead allies before my semester holidays are over. :\

I noticed a bad error of the mod today. I was trying to play some Co-Op with friends via LAN but the only available map for the Campaign was Semper Fi. Sadly we couldn't re-conquer the Reichstag and such things.
Zombie Mode just listed "MYMOD" as Zombie map. Bit of a disappointment. Is there any solution out yet or did I came across a new bug?

Any news yet?

To be honest, I'm German and it came to happen that I played the German cut version once. I'm so ******* glad I got UK version! Even if Reznov is speaking German he'll still be yelling "Kill the Germans" so won't change a thing. Nice idea tough. :)

Now on German propaganda. Russians are speaking English in CoD right now. I possess CoD 2 too and I managed to get the Russian sound files, so my enemy (I'm using a Wehrmacht Mod) is speaking Russian and the German propaganda is too in Russian now. I could send the Russian files to Cpt. Wesley.

I got the idea now. The Feldmütze M43 is a great idea, make him look like Steiner from Cross of Iron. But still he needs this kind of uniform to distinguish him of being no simple private:

Callofduty.gamefront.com

The shoulder tabs indicate he's Hauptmann (Captain). This is fine actually, as it's a field officer rank. The problem is what rank do we assign to Makarov? He indeed could be wearing a General's uniform either Wehrmacht or Waffen as Reznov is taking orders from him.

Yes, you could already add an Army officer skin just by putting the files in the Axisplayer mod folder. Anyway, Axis Reznov should be wearing a helmet, that's what Germans did when in combat.

Yes, the main problem is that the models used are splinter camo and therefore standard uniform skins won't work on them. So the Breast eagle of the Wehrmacht does not appear on the chest but there's still the Waffen insignia eagle on the left upper sleeve.

Reichskriegsflagge (Reich Battle Flag 1935 standard). But shouldn't we be ripping down a Red Army banner?

I saw you got new skins for the Germans, you might wanna also add this one: Callofduty.gamefront.com

for standard fieldgrey Wehrmacht. It should be possible to have both Wehrmacht and Waffen SS troopers on the field.

Please include this skin for Wehrmacht troops. It should be possible to have both Waffen and Wehrmacht troopers fighting with you.

Callofduty.gamefront.com

Please change the sign, it's totally wrong. In German language it's not motherland, it's fatherland. Secondly the whole phrase is wrong. The correct one is: "Vaterlandsveräter" which means traitor to the motherland. This one is typically for CoD, wrong wrong and wrong again. If you need help changing it I can surely help you.

great, next version might be ready for my AxisPlayer Presentation party by the middle of this month. I'm going to play AxisPlayer with friends on a huge HD TV with surround sound. I told them the mod was the bomb. I really hope I can show 1.2 to them! Keep up the great work!

Sure, everyone has one's duties. But I'd really appreciate it if there was Allied Zombies by 20th July, this is when the exams are other and I got time to frag hell out of the Red Army ;)

Make the Russian look like Reznov, so he finally gets what the deserves, that bloody basterd. xD

Thank you. Axisplayer is my favorite FPS mod so I thought I gotta support its development in best ways. :) Cause after the university exams this summer I wanna kick some (undead) allied butt with my friends for sure!

As Version 1.2 is still at the workshop and I had some free time left I finalized my Japanese names list. This list hopefully contains enough names so there are no doubles ingame.

Gamefront.com

So if Cpt. Wesley manages to include those names for the Japanese, we may say goodbye to Japanese infantry with German names above their head. :)

I guess/hope:

- the Japanese campaign was enhanced further
- weapon bugs will be fixed (Type 99 lmg and M1 Garand)
- sniper rifle in Vendetta will be fixed or changed
- Chernov's burned model will be German rather than Russian
- Russian models will have burnt skin after Molotov attack
- weapon ammo will be increased
- German base model will be Wehrmacht standard and no longer camo suit
- tanks will be relaced (What will we be driving? King Tiger ftw! xD)
- Roebuck model will be replaced

Just suggestion guys, nothin official
