Re: Character shooting stat in PvP

From my experience, it seems to impact the sway of the scope when sniping (I could be imagining it though, might be worth its own test).

It's certainly not the most important stat when choosing a MP player, to my mind: Strength, Endurance, and First Aid skills are all far more tangible.

Re: All goooooood?

Hey Friends :grin:

It has certainly been... interesting. That I've been busy would be an understatement, but I am starting a new job soon and will hopefully have more time to come back to the HD and HD2 community once that's settled.

Hope everyone is staying happy and healthy!

Re: Easy newby questions about textures

Hi HarryLarry! Mr 47 is correct about rprclan.com being the most active HD2 community right now (with some very talented modders doing some very interesting things right now!) To answer your question about textures, you will need the .dta unpacker to extract the textures that come with the game - MA...

Re: Game launches with console instead of the actual game.

Hey, and welcome to the forum and to Hidden and Dangerous! Make sure you are running the proper .exe from the game folder - if you have Sabre Squadron installed you should have a few different ones to choose, HD2_SabreSquadron.exe is the one you want, and will launch the game with the Sabre Squadron...

Re: Can't exit map while spectating.

Hey Carlos, I've seen this before as well. I think the game still wants you to select a respawn point even though you cannot respawn, thus blocking you from hiding the map. Have you tried toggling the console on/off (should be the [~] key)? I find this usually makes the map disappear, at least for a...

Re: New Player Here: Looking for Skin packs and more!

Its usually just a trickle, though I do find there are more in the evenings (Greenwich time). If you are interested, some groups host coop events on weekends. I know the RpR TLC is open to anyone who is willing to play with team, so if you are in to that sort of thing, that would be the place to sta...

One more thing, if you are looking to get the in-game server browser working, you can follow the tutorial here:

Re: New Player Here: Looking for Skin packs and more!

You don't need the extractor unless you want to make your own mods - if you just dump the files into the game folder, the game will automatically load the new ones in. Likewise, all you need to do to uninstall is delete the modded files and everything will go back to normal. As for the RpR Drive, Yo...

Re: New Player Here: Looking for Skin packs and more!

Hey Commissar, and welcome to Hidden and Dangerous! You can find some pretty good (if I do say so myself) texture mods, among other things, on ModDB. http://www.moddb.com/games/hidden-dangerous-2/addons Another absolute must have would be Jamez's British and German paratrooper skins. I've linked the...

Re: I can't see the texts on Title screen

This could also be an issue with the 'texty' file in the game files - this is the text document which contains most of the menu and objective text in the game. If you've installed any mods or map packs, those may have changed it, or it could have installed improperly, in which case a reinstall may ...

Re: Mad Max Video Game?

I did! I enjoyed it quite a bit, though I haven't finished the main story yet. But the driving does feel nice, and the missions are fun enough (if not a bit repetitive after a while). The photo mode is pretty cool too..

Re: Missing Coop maps

Hey Lukaso, I just took a look through the maps I know of, and I unfortunately do not believe there are coop versions of these maps. The issue is that these, being multiplayer maps only, were never set up so NPCs could use them. I could be wrong about this, however, so I will keep looking for someth...
