This is a thread to post your suggestions for the next fhsw versions. you can posts pics,videos or other stuff of vehicles, tanks, plans, ships... wicht you want to see in the next fhsw version! the FHSW devs will fallow this thread tensely
Dieser thread ist gedacht um euch die möglichkeit zu geben fahrzeuge, panzer, flugzeuge, waffen... die ihr in der nächsten fhsw version sehen wollt zu posten. die fhsw deevs werden diesen thread gespannt verfolgen und versuchen eure vorschläge umzusetzten
Please keep in mind that EVERY additional vehicle in FHSW extends the overall loading time of ALL maps!
Add at least a short reason why this vehicle should be added and not just blindly copy/paste everything that you have found somewhere on the net. When you are about posting a request, think it twice whether excessive time spent for map loading is worth of all less significant prototypes found on the Internet, even if none of maps use them. The more doesn't stand for better, in this case. Thanks for understanding.
All suggestions so far (collected by Fritz Kempf) All crossed entries = already added in FHSw or planned in next version.
I like that a lot of tanks can spot targets for the artillery now, however to add some realism only tanks/APC's/etc. that really had a radio to communicate with the higher command should be able to spot targets for the artillery. Quite a few tanks have a cupola view now, also a nice addition. But: Some tanks didn't have one in RL but have a cupola view in FHSW, e. g. Ferdinand. And the T-34/85 had one in RL but not in FHSW. These little historical details are really important for me.
Related to my previous suggestion the commander (cupola view) should have the ability to spot targets for artillery (is already done in most tanks) but also spot targets for his gunner like in the Jagdtiger or T-35 (the little arrow icon on the minimap). One thought that randomly came to my mind is to add more usefulness to the marker pistol. One Ju 88 variant (placed on Arctic Convoy) can drop Star Shells which make some light but are also shown on the minimap. How about adding that minimap icon to the marker pistol? This way you could for example show your bomber pilots where they should drop their deadly load.
The Nahverteidigungswaffe was able to fire smoke rounds, too. Maybe it's possible to switch between smoke and HE grenade via up/down keys?
Tank physics: I have a feeling that some tanks accelerate way too fast, sure the Maus was able to go at 20 km/h but only on perfect conditions and definitely not within 1 second. I also think that the turret traverse speed was increased for most tanks in 0.5, it's a bit strange to see the IS-2/Tiger II/etc. rotating their turrets by 360° in seconds.
World of Tank introduce again a new version. This time they have add some awsome stuff! Like the Crash sound of a tank! You hear smash the tank on the ground when he drive from cliffs and also if he jump over hills!
Bring back the FH maps like Road to Ramelle, Attack on Carentan, Market Garden, Bastogne, Fall Gelb. They only take up a few KB because they're already in FH, so I don't know why anyone would delete these maps. More maps is always better, right? They also look really good compared to the fugly (sorry) shadeless FHSW maps like Gazaps and Sumosalami or whatever it's called. For the love of god please add shadows to your maps! I know you can do it, Gela - Operation Husky has them and it looks gorgeous! Also Berlin Outskirts needs to come back, it's one of the best maps for our player numbers. (added note from Fritz Kempf: Hell yeah! :P )
survive the depth bombs attack while you use a Submarine.... in the past, you can survive a depth charges attack from destroyers when you use the Submarine and dive depth enough! Now, a few versions meanwhile, you can't survive it anymore and that is pitty! I want to play like the movie Das Boots!
I also wish they made more Italy campaign maps! Britain vs. Italy, Canada vs. Italy, Britain vs. Germany, America vs. Italy, America vs. Germany (all in Italy of course). Maps like battle of Anzio and Monte Cassino would be good for FHSW. I hope with the introduction of Brazilian forces they will include more Italy maps with them in it.
follow the devs on twitter! frank work at some plane models https://p.twimg.com/AfRrLIqCAAASBtL.jpg fhsw_man effects of new works at the moment! his last screenshot on twitter shows the tower of a tank:
I downloaded it and they're pretty well made, you can't walk and shoot precisely - you have to remain still and use the sights to hit something. With that you can also shoot accurate while standing. This is a bit unrealistic in FHSW imo, where it takes a lot of time to get an accurate shot, usually you have to lay down. Firing multiple shots while standing is impossible at longer distances.
The mod also has the feature that Robert suggested: The more wounded you are the smaller is your line of sight. My Youtube Channel aka eYe.ris

Iron sides are nice, we had that implemented in our Minimod and it was a good step forward to realism.
I often thought that it is a shame not to pick out all the stunning good features from all mods and make a really amazing one out of it Gameserver admin on our FHSW Europ server
1st: There is one thing that I miss so much in FHSW: a magnification in tank gun optics. The PaKs in Seelow Heights have zoomed sight that looks and works very well. Especially typical tank maps need such feature in my opinion. In conjunction with new "Sloped Armor Effect" and projectile tracers it would make tank battles interesting as never before.
Compare default PaK and the zoomed one (click to enlarge):
2nd naive wish: more of Objective maps! I do not demand new maps, merely current Conquest maps to be available as Objective.
What would you like the new version FHSW? On this question every fan of the game is the answer. Let me write about their desires, and you tell me your opinion whether it is in the game. 1) I would really like to mods appeared on the maps already established technique, but for different reasons, it is not used in the latest version FHSW: - German fighters Bf-109G-2/R6, G-6/U5, G-10/R4, K-10 - The Soviet Tank KV-8, KV-122, ISU-130 2) It would be nice if the game has started to FHSV models that have never failed to appear not on one of the maps: - The battleship Iowa - Bomber Il-4 - MG PM 1910 3) I think that we need a technique that has been in the FH, but now is not used in FHSW: - Soviet Willys MB2, M3 Stuart, Matilda Mk II, Valentine Mk II - French aircraft Moraine Saulnier MS 406, Curtiss Hawk P75, Dewoitine D.520 - The American Fighter Curtiss P-36C "Hawk" - Battleship Tirpiz (model and texture is slightly different from Bismark) - M19 Duster 4) In the FH model existed that disappeared with time. I would be happy if they came back, after alteration of course: - Soviet destroyer Gnevny Class
- Tank PzKpfw IV Ausf. D
- British APC M3A1 Halftrack SAS, and Mobile AA Staghound Mk I
- SdKfz7 a towed gun Flak18
- The Soviet armored Ba-64
- German seaplane He-115C
But I was the happiest fan if there were modifications in our analogs of interesting models from other mods BF1942. Later, I'll make a list of them.

Vano, Panzer IV D, P-36 Hawk, Matilda Mk II (?!) are available in FHSW maps. As long as the Il-4 is in game files we can place it on any map right now, using server side modding. Sadly only Stefan may upload server files but he is veeery busy with other things (I belive so...) :(
Yes, I P-36, I saw it on Adak Islads. Mr J Please remember, on what maps you have seen the Soviet Matilda II and Pz IVD (hope you do not confuse it with the Pz IVF1)? I quite forgot that the M19 Duster too. He's on the map Bombing the Reich.

Oh you did mean weapons used by Soviets, my mistake, sorry So you are right, there is no russian Matilda in FHSW, delivered after the Lend Lease program. As well as an American and British airplanes used on Eastern Front are missing. I can't call to mind the soviet Matilda mk.II from FH neither. Did it have a custom skin?
About Panzer IV Ausf. D - I always was sure that the short barreled Panzer IV is the spoken Ausf. D Yeah, F1 looks very similiar when compared to D.
Valentine Soviet model is in I believe Kharkov Outskirts, Ive seen the Matilda somewhere before but dont remember where, maybe was on old mod or something.
We have all the maps of the Eastern Front Soviet Valentine II is replaced by Valentine VIII. Also, the Soviet M3 Lee disappeared from the map of the A Day Citadel.
