H&D Deluxe; the ultimate mod; Mission overhauls

[p.jakub88]

I added a short (about 15 seconds) original radio broadcast about the end of WW2 in Europe to the ending cinematic that plays after the Prague campaign. I think that this is the best solution, since we cannot have text displayed on both ending cinematics at the same time.

Due to the short duration of the ending scene i wasn't able to add longer audio (i wanted to add Winston Churchill speech).

Unpack the sounds.mod.rar and missions.rar archives into your root H&D Deluxe directory.

I hope Myron that you will like my idea.

It looks like i forgot to upload some files regarding the ending cinematic added from FFF. Please download those files.

Unpack the maps.mod.rar and models.rar archives into your root H&D Deluxe directory.

I apologize for the confusion.

As i promised i added a Nebelwerfer artillery emplacement into the Ardenes campaign.

See pictures below.

As i promised earlier, i replaced the German Panzer IV tanks in the Italy 3 mission with the custom Italian M13/40 tanks.

A shipment of tanks for the North African front.

See picture below.

As i promised i added the custom SPA 35 Dovunque Italian trucks into the Italian campaign (in the Italy 3 mission) by replacing the default Mercedes trucks.

See pictures below.

Kudos on throwing in early war Italian crap, replacing the unrealistically later-war PzIV models. :)

The tanks can be destroyed, I hope.

Both the trucks and tanks could be destroyed.

I added the Italian AB41 armored car to the following H&D Deluxe missions:

-> Danube 1 and Danube 2;

-> Italy 3;

-> Greece 2.

You see that large green area just right of the commando? I was thinking, since this is an escape-and-evade mission, shouldn't that area be open so that lone-wolf players can, well, escape?

Better to leave it as it is. This way the player will need to stick to the road. Bypassing enemies will be like cheating in my opinion. In addition i placed an armored car near the bridge. Just flanking it won't be challenging at wall. Pure waste of my modding work.

After your last PM i checked again the Danube 1 mission.

I found out, that for unknown reason the armored car gunner was still alive even when his vehicle was blown up. I fixed that bug.

As you could see on the attached pictures it is possible to destroy the armored car without being discovered.

I applied the same bugfix to all the other missions where i added the custom AB41 Italian armored car.

Please download those missions again.

I apologize for the inconvenience.

BTW, I found a German just standing there, at the base of the mountain. (Blue)

And if I recall correctly, the sniper who was hiding somewhere in the red area seems to be missing. Maybe it's a one-time glitch.

What? I didn't place any German soldier at the base of the mountain...the closest one is a sniper standing on the wooden tower. He is quite dangerous - on my last Danube 1 mission play he managed to kill my commando trying to pass the first guard house on the main road.

The sniper isn't missing. He is hiding behind a rock on the hill.

See pictures below.

I replaced the custom German howitzer model in the Italy 1 mission with the custom Italian howitzer model. It has wider firing angle and fits better with the surroundings.

See pictures below.
