Crap, I think I deleted it.

I will have to download the game again.

Please, be patient.

Hmm, ok, click-and-drag doesn't work.

How do I send it to you?

First of all you need to add the data.dta file into a *.rar archive using Winrar.

Then create a new post, select the "Attachments" tab and then click "Add files". The last step would be to confirm (Submit) and the file will be uploaded together with the new post.

See the image below as an example. The opened window is for selecting a file for upload (Windows XP OS).


P.S. The problem for the communication between us is probably, that we are living in very different time zones. Could you tell me, in which part of USA you are living, if this is not a secret? For instance i am living in the southern part of Poland in the Upper Silesia region.

By "data.add" do you mean the whole folder?

Also, it's northern Idaho.

Sorry, i mean data.dta. It is located in your H&D Deluxe data folder.

The *.add format is reserved for H&D Deluxe add-ons.

My time is currently 7:15 p.m, so yours probably around 10 a.m, lol.

Yes, 10:28-am when I sent this.

Just as i thought.

Thank You for uploading the data.dta file. I will make changes in it when i find some free time, but probably as soon as tomorrow.

I am going out for few hours to meet with my friends, so i won't be online and out of the reach of my PC.

If i manage to do any changes requested by you in the data.dta file i will inform you.

So far i managed to edit the H&D Deluxe weapons weight to be the same as the ones from Fight for Freedom expansion. In example MP40 from FFF was lighter than the MP40 from stock H&D. However, they share the same aiming model.

Next, i will add weapons from FFF into H&D inventory list along with their description.

You can't somehow import the Medal-of-Honor style aiming model that FFF used? The biggest reason why I want it is because all the FFF-only weapons have it, and ONLY it, whereas the stock guns had both.

Yes, the vanilla/stock bazooka weaighs 13kgs, but in FFF it weighs only 7kgs; much better.

Because you looked at my PM to you, I can't access it anymore, and therefore I need your reply on it as well.

Hello,

i added ALL allied weapons from FFF into H&D Deluxe inventry_0.tab table. Those weapons will be available in all 9 campaigns, together with the stock allied H&D weapons, that already were on the list. See the pictures below.

Those weapons added from FFF have "MOH style" aiming model only, the ones from stock H&D have also iron sights.

The H&D Deluxe inventory list have a maximum number of items positions, that could be used in game and this feature is unfortunately hardcoded (64 items total).
However, i still have space for some additional custom items, if you want them on the list - as well as new German weapons from FFF expansion.

The current items list will be not compatible with my own H&D Deluxe add-ons - there will be simply some missing weapons and items models. There could be also incompatibilities between the new item list and some add-ons made by others.

Unfortunately, i came across a small problem, that i don't know how to actually fix. I didn't manage to find the source of the problem as described in the error message box. However, the game could still be launched by pressing OK and everything seems to work. See the picture below.

Please let me know, if you want me to upload the edited data.dta archive in the current state or you want me to make additional changes.

So, the "stock/vanilla weapons", like the Sten gun, or the MP40, is it impossible to give them back their MOH-style aiming models?

And holy crap!
Did you add uniforms to the inventory?! That's awesome! Am I reading the above picture right?

I don't understand you. Some H&D Deluxe weapons always had 2 modes of aiming - shoulder and iron sights. The weapons introduced by FFF expansion have only shoulder aiming like Thompson. In addition some weapons from FFF and H&D shares the same aiming model like MP40.

No, those are the default uniforms, that you could find in some stock missions and dress them as disguise (i mean of course the civilian and German clothes). You can't actually equip them into inventory before the mission, unless i add their ID number to the list of available items in H&D Deluxe.

Do you want that too?

There are also some mods, that add new uniform textures for Germans and US troops. However, this has nothing to do with the data.dta archive.
