I saw the add on packs Normandy2C - Alps (Rendezvous) 2, and was interested in them but dont know how to install or use them....are these for online multiplayer only?..any insights would be appreciated as I think having tanks on the Alps map for online play would be awesome!

You just have to put the Normandy2C folder under a directory like so...

C:\Program Files\Illusion Softworks\Hidden & Dangerous 2\Missions

Under C:\Program Files\Illusion Softworks\Hidden & Dangerous 2\Missions\Normandy2C will be all the .dat, . 4ds etc files.

The maps are for mp only and you would need Sabre to play them

Thanks Lars
I think I found the add ons from a site where I think you posted them, and think its really cool you guys modify the maps. That must be alot of work! I'm assuming sabre is a server?  I play online a bit a really wish someone who has the ability would host the modded Alps map. It seems the main server for MP varies considerably as far as what maps get played and which dont. Sometimes, its just one or two maps for hours on end and they usually skip Alps all together!

I think all maps are avaivable at www.had-gf.de . With sabre i mean the official addon sabre squadron witch allows you to play coop. How to install the maps? I think this picture will made it clearer:

Thanks for clarifying things...thats why it didnt work....I dont have Sabre Squadron any longer. I guess I need to get a new copy somewhere. So do you guys play online? What is the best 'public' online clan/server? Maybe I should clarify...'best' to me meaning least amount of cheating and not staying on one map all night...haha

There are still lots of servers and lots of players. Depending on time of day, it can get up to 300 players. Most of the coop servers, have the rotation set to switch whether pass or fail. There really isn't a best, they all have the cheating and they all rotate maps after every round.

So I just ordered a new copy of Sabre...so I'm assuming I'll also have more server options for online play as a result of installing sabre squadron? I just assumed since the last available patch for H&D2 has the fixes for Sabre included, that I wouldnt need sabre squadron for online play...so can anyone setup a server from their own home computer? It would be great to have Alps with tanks! Well anyways guys thanks to you all for answering my questions as I'm not a gamer as this is the only game I like or play. I play as Audie Murphy or PRC (depending on which computer I'm on) so if you see me online say hi......or take a shot at me...haha

You should still see lots of servers, The Rs server for instance always runs non SS maps with non SS items. If you can't see it, your server filter is messed up or you did not install the correct 1.12 patch.
