WW2 Team - great news

Many great news from WW2 Team ! I was recieved e-mail from Lobster (Lead Coder The WW2 Team). Here is full text of this e-mail:

Dear OFP info
CaptRyan has informed me of the growing interest in The WW2 Team, So as lead coder I felt I should fillyou guys in on the future plans we are working on, The US and German packs were a dissappointment, To a few people so we are working on a re-release in a week or two, which may include a few extra weapons for your enjoyment.
But after we get these out of the way, We have a british pack in the making by one of our other coders, Blitz, and a japanese pack under production from Lawrie, We are also planning further sets of infantry including the russians, canadians, french, resistance armies, etc.
And also we are prepareing some armour, A Tiger is pretty much finished, and a new sherman is being made by marcel as we speak, I myself am also playing around with a Panzer III model.
As for aircraft, Marcels C47 skytrain has been tweaked for its next release, and a german equivalent Junkers transport aircraft is almost ready, There are also a few fighter planes on the way.
As for missions, the mod is an open beta production meaning we release things when we feel they are ready, this is not always the case and the community soon lets us know of bugs and additions, (Although we somtimes get a little hostile to this), We do try and keep everyone happy but its a slow task, The missions that ryan and Kotp are working on will be released one by one, and we hope they will eventually released as a campaign.
(Loads More Stuff Being Cooked Up)
This is not a single big mod like Invasion 1944 or Operation Vietnam, it is a growing set of addons that are constantly being worked on and updated by the makers, Thats about it :D
Thanks.
Lobster (Lead Coder The WW2 Team)

Ballistic Addon Studios

Tigershark announced opening of Ballistic Addon Studios.

Ballistic Addon Studios is a talented group of modelers and texture artists that strive to make the best quality addons for the community. Ballistic was created from the foundations of Tigershark/Jellybelly Productions (TJP) to not only design and create addons but also to help others publish addons using the established quality standards Ballistic believes in.
Ballistic has opened up it's doors as a publishing house for addons to help the community select from quality assured and realistic addons.
There are so many addons out there (some of them of questionable quality) that it can be difficult to choose which addon is best. Ballistic will set the standard in addon quality where the benchmark has not already been set by another community member. For example, we believe we are already well on our way to our goal of being the foremost OFP helicopter addon makers. We have already be working hard on new versions of our MH-60L, Pavehawks and are creating a new AH-1W and MH-6 Littlebird. In the future, with the help of other new addon makers we hope to publish addons that have the potential to be the best in other categories.

It’s based on the old one by Lustypooh, but because it’s out to date I made a new one.
Gamesdomain.com posted review of OFP:Resistance with score of 3.5 from 5.
LoadedInc.com have own review of Resistance too. Score 9 from 10.
New german OFP site has arisen - www.flashpoint-planet.de
If you like Nogova map from DingoRE (in yesterday news) you can download it here   FTP#2 in size of 5500x5500 points.
Useful tip is coming from AcousticToad...

Since resistance came out, people have been complaining that the multiplayer maps were not being saved to the hard drive, meaning every time you play, you have to download the map.
Well heres a tip for keeping the maps that your playing, here goes :
When your playing the map, Alt-Tab out of the game and goto your main OFP directory ( example: c:/program files/codemasters/operation flashpoint) here there will be a folder named "Tmp" this contains the map and some other info about the game your playing, just copy the map to the "MpMissions" folder and the map will be saved.
Amalfi finished new version of his PBO Decryptor tool. It's faster now and support Resistance files. You can download from our Utilities section.
