Re: Questions before attempting the game for the first time - which version?

Hmm another problem i have noticed is when you move on to a new mission, the inventories of individual soldiers can switch - for example, soldier 4 will get soldier 1's stuff and vice versa. Dunno if 2 and 3 swap too. Whatever, it is extremely annoying and i don't know how to stop it from happening....

Re: Questions before attempting the game for the first time - which version?

That's okay, wouldn't normally be a problem but it's basically only you of the old guard here :D I just have an appetite for the game now that i've managed to get it sort of going. I tried a new windows install with onboard sound and it had exactly the same problem... however: Someone suggested to m...

Re: Bulletproof definition

The sequel to red orchestra is looking quite nice and will apparently have single player unless i missunderstood. Not that it's the same kind of thing as hidden and dangerous, but i think it's the closest we shall get in this day and age. At least i hope it's not super linear. That's what i always l...

Any ideas how to get the sound working? What sound card do you have?

Re: Another H&D on XP problem ...............

Considering your hardware would probably support it, is it worth making a small partition for windows 98 or me and seeing if it works any better on that?

Re: Questions before attempting the game for the first time - which version?

Okay i installed both the original and deluxe. Also tried your deluxe 2 / deluxe restored and i must say with regard to faces, wow you did it. One thing i dont understand is how can they change the uniforms but not the faces? cos even the little ss / italian flags on the helmets change. Your one doe...

Re: Questions before attempting the game for the first time - which version?

In terms of sound and eax / a3d support which is better? Not sure... eax? What i meant was which release - h&d original or deluxe has better support for these? As i read something about it on Lars' site but didn't really get the full meaning as it was pretty terse and in German. A3d works bouncing ...

Re: Questions before attempting the game for the first time - which version?

What about the guard in the tower overlooking the factory entrance? As far as i remember, he can blatantly see the sewer system manhole nearest to him - and anyway getting to him while avoiding guards in the sewer system is rather impossible. Perhaps you can make a video to show this? :p or at least...

Questions before attempting the game for the first time - which version?

I managed to obtain the original H&D and FFF add-on from ebay for pittance a while ago and am yet to play them but i really want to now. I would have played the game earlier but it always annoyed me in Deluxe how the faces were the same for everyone - that took some of the magic from the game. I was...

Re: Where is that mod that gives you many stuff?

What's MIs and SOE and what kind of things did they do? Cos yes sas only seemed to be about stealth of approach and then hitting hard so no real need for silenced weapons as they would aim to cause a commotion anyway and also took a lot oftheir weapons/ ammo from the enemy. At least that's what it s...

Re: Where is that mod that gives you many stuff?

Well yes, I can see why 3rd person is there, it helps to know where your body position is - as sadly it's not tied to the 1st person view so strictly. However really people tend to use it to look around corners/ over cover, which spoils things a lot. Mind you the sound engine could be better. Thief ...

Re: Where is that mod that gives you many stuff?

There are enough cheaters in h&d online as it is. It really ruins it :( Infact, most servers allow 3rd person view, which ruins it too, as you cannot use a stealth approach. The whole game turns into a big "run and gun with MP44 or BAR" fest, as unfortunately those are by far the best in the game. A...
