Right about where I am standing, there seems to be an invisible barrier that stops bullets from going down the tunnel.
Well, i was standing in the same place where you were and enemy soldier that patrolled this particular sewer tunnel was able to kill me (notice his shadow and right arm holding the weapon). See pictures below.
I should have clarified; the barrier only stopped my bullets. He killed me just fine. :mrgreen:

Indeed, i don't know why that happened, but i updated the Greece 1 mission and fixed that problem. Thanks for letting me know!

Unpack the content of the missions.rar archive (missions folder) into your root H&D Deluxe install directory. Replace files when asked.

By the way your brother is far into the game. Did he start playing campaigns from the beginning or is he just using your saves?

Oh he definitely has his own profiles and has been binge-playing the game. 😁

I just wish he would be more into giving precise feedback. 😏

By the way, if you wish to see ALL emoji options, press and hold the Window key and then hit the period key. 😎

As i mentioned earlier in the H&D Deluxe, the ultimate mod: Guns thread, i imported Flak 88 cannon model from Medal of Honor Spearhead and made it usable and destroyable.

Now i added 2 Flak 88s into the Ardennes 2 mission (see pictures below).

To actually have this new Flak 88 model in this mission please download and unpack the attached below Ardennes 2 update RAR archive into your root H&D Deluxe install directory (i.e. C:\Program Files\Take2\Hidden and Dangerous Deluxe). Replace files when asked.

Enjoy! :grin:

Please download and unpack the attached Ardennes 1 update RAR archive into your root H&D Deluxe install directory (i.e. C:\Program Files\Take2\Hidden and Dangerous Deluxe). Replace files when asked. You also need to download and unpack the archive that i attached to the previous post - which contains the actual Flak 88 model with textures.

Enjoy! :grin:

I also updated my modified Danube 5 mission and made it more balanced with the following changes:

-> the mission was too easy even on hard difficulty, so i decided to remove all friendly partisans. Like in the original mission the defense of the airfield depends solely on our SAS team;

-> added second enemy motorcycle that will attack the airfield from the main road;

-> placed another light-machine gun in the barn (ZB-26), because the player cannot actually predict that the last mission in the Yugoslavian campaign will be a defensive one when playing it for the first time.

-> made patrol boat vulnerable to machine-gun fire and grenades;

-> various minor changes and bug fixes.

Unpack both RAR archives attached below into your root H&D Deluxe install directory. Replace files when asked.

Why did you place border guard huts in front of the mansion?

Its an important building for the Germans after all and similar guard posts are seen in other PC games too like in Medal of Honor Allied Assault mission "The Command Post".

You could find huts like those placed also on road checkpoints, etc.

P.S. First Zikshadow now you NilsZ. Have you both founded a Nitpicking Club recently? :P

I just asked why. :D
I only know these houses standing at the border to the next country. They are painted in nations colors and border guards can stand inside when its raining.

Hello everyone,

i also updated the Germany 2 mission.

List of changes:

-> using 3ds Max i made the balcony and French windows breakable just like i did earlier with smaller windows on Steiner's villa ground and first floor. Now you can break the glass shooting at it and be able to get out to the balcony to i.e. shoot the sentries at the gate;

-> i made the balcony and French windows transparent for the enemy AI, so you cannot hide behind them like before. Enemies will spot you and open fire;

-> various bugs fixed.

See pictures below. :cool:

As a tribute to classic PC game Return to Castle Wolfenstein i added a famous German military march (downloaded from Youtube), that will be played from radio in one of the rooms with archives in the Norway 2 mission (see picture below).

The radio is destroyable and if you destroy it the music will stop playing.
