Quote Endless_Nameless ()Thanks, thankfully it was just a minor bug, hopfully I didn't add another one while I fixed it

Did you just add the sounds folder in objects/stationary_weapons/MG15_air? Any other changes? (i couldn't find them)
Also the same problem was reported with the MG17

btw. i already fixed the problem with stug_g_late textures on operation blackknight and liberation of caen:
Download

just put the content into your Mods/STFHSW folder

However i do want that we merge all these fixes into a final ST0.51 fix, which will resolve all problems for users who downloaded the above S&T pack

Today I couldn´t join "Liberation of Caen" I had to overwrite ur new fixed .rfa of Caen with the old one, than I could join.

Game crashed with battlefield.exe has a problem ...etc. 

Don´t know if anyone else had that kind of problem?

I downloaded it and compared the .rfa with the one i use in my STFHSW folder and with which i could join and play on the server.
They are identical. I doubt that your crash has something to do with my fix (all i changed was one text line which says to use different textures)

Im convinced that there is a bug either with the ragdoll death animations or real gun sounds, because ive been having nothing but crashes since i installed them, anyone else having issues with them?

EDIT: now im convinced theres something wrong with the universe, i have done like a dozen full reinstallations and i even left out s&t pack on my most recent one and every map i try to load either crashes bf or it just says i was disconnected from server.. its sad but if it keeps up i may stop trying to fix it..

i think you have placed some file in a wrong place. But you need to delete the bf1942 folder manually before reinstallation!
the BF1942 deinstallation procedure won't remove files which aren't affilated with BF42/vanilla and the FHSW installer won't overwrite FHSW addons

Higher quality menus and HUD icons

It is an improvement on all menu and HUD textures, most are doubled in resolution and you'll notice the difference if you play in higher than 800x600 resolution or widescreen resolutions. All credits go to tuia and unexpectedpanda. I removed some icons that looked out of place (vanilla kit menu on the left e.q.)

Main menu screenshot

Comparison 1

Comparison 2

Download

Installation: When using S&T put menu_001.rfa in ...\Battlefield 1942\Mods\STFHSW\Archives\
otherwise put it in ...\Battlefield 1942\Mods\FHSW\Archives\

when you placed a fhsw addon file into the fh folder, then it's not enough. To be sure, delete the whole bf1942 folder.
Then you can be sure to have a clean installation.

I managed to make 3d ironsights from FHE work in S&T pack and it works in multiplayer:


I think it could be a great addition to S&T pack and I will post an update to pack with availible weapons soon. But I can't get in contact with the developer of the mod to ask permission, since he was't active on forums since 2009.

For those who want to know, how 3d ironsights were made:

luck i guess. A custom animation could make the gun wobbling around while holding it unstable.
But i don't have any knowledge(and tool) for creating animations.

Good job I tried to do that as well some time ago but some sights aren't really optimised for that, the MP40 looks good though.

That's a problem, it doesn't really work with the current super sensitive reticles. Maybe you could change this too in the S&T pack but that's definitely going too far gameplay-wise.

I have a question for you guys: Currently in tank combat sound and visuals appear at the same time, e. g. a tank fires 300 m away from you but you hear the sound at the same time as you see the muzzle flash when in reality there's almost a second delay. Would you like to have that?

I think this is cool, makes it much more realistic, youd be surprised how long th delay can be.. the only thing is some noobs probably dont understand how sound actually works so they might think its mis timed, but im all for it!

EDIT: Perhaps its possible to find one or two weapons to intergrate it with(such as submachineguns like mp40s, stens, and thompsons) i think as these are close range weapons it may not make too much difference as there is a tendency to spray and pray anyway.
