but just testing D/L found `Go bike Go` gives core exception 001 error.

It's strange, I just checked out this mission and it works without problems (balance "5").
         
It means that I need to have a look on er installation. I need a screenshot, smth. like that:

U can upload a screenshot here:

Just for feedback in 2013 update some of original missions seem to go back to Russian.

If I find any errors will let you know.

That would be nice!

Appreciate all the work you've done.Thanks again.

Sorry, but I didn't understand
1. Where is a screenshot of er installation?
2. Does mission `Go bike go` work properly or not?
If u've a problem with image uploading, then just write down what the installations of mods du u've.
Cheers.

Just downloaded "Go Bike go" from user made missions and installed separatley and it's working perfectly.See it has to be installed and uninstalled after play.I'm not sure whether it's meant to run in MP3.3a or not.Thanks for help.

Mentioned above mission approximately one year ago included into MP2.1. It should work. Of course, if u followed the recommended order of installation

Steel Panther Mod and SPM ultimate update are no longer needed?

[lockie]

Steel Panther Mod and SPM ultimate update are no longer needed?

It's up to u. There are two types of installations:
1. Unofficial patch_SF_v0.1_(ENG)
2. Upd_Sept_2013(NTA) (three mods merged in one)
3. Sound Mod (NTA) 1.0
4. SPM (NTA) 1.7.1 alpha (fix_04 included)

OR

1. Unofficial patch_SF_v0.1_(ENG)
2. SPM 1.5 beta
3. SPM1.5 UU
4. Sound Mod (NTA) 1.0
5. Upd_Nov_2012(NTA) v1.1
6. SPM (NTA) 1.7.1 alpha (fix_04 included)

Pick up at er taste

[Tanker]

Thanks for that lockie.  What are the relative merits of each?

[frinik]

The first one combines 3 mods into one: Beta1.5, the Ultimate and the November 2012 Update. So obviously less mods to enable in your JSGME. Other than practicality no difference.

[lockie]

What are the relative merits of each?

I'd say that first variant for the newcomers, a second for the veterans who already has all mods enabled 

[Tanker]

The mission packs 1.1, 2.1 and 3.3a and General mods can be used with either example?

Yes.

Good news from Comrade deviator, he made a new six missions devoted to the `Rzhev battle`, also it's known as "Rzhev meat grinder" due to huge losses by the Red Army. The main activity will take place in the village Polunino, July 1942. First mission devoted to the AA apc sdkfz 7. It was a big surprise for me, coz I never used this unit. The reason is simple - sdkfz 7 was designed against aircraft, but in SF it's almost impossible to hit any airplane.


There will be a short video before mission start:

[Tanker]

These are in the current 3.3 map pack?

[norm]

Do you drive the Sd.Kfz. 7? I've always wanted to in this game, I recal reading about them being used as infantry support vehicles, driven in reverse, so that the gun shield would also kinda protect the driver.

[lockie]

These are in the current 3.3 map pack?

Not yet. All missions needs to be adjusted:
- translated
There must be added:
- briefings
- backimage
- mapimage (as I've already done above)
- quotations
- video
- tasks in the cs_main() block
- history text (already done)

Apply all necessary fixes etc. Also I want to add on the polygon/map an additional symbols, monument lenin, corn.
Hope after two weeks all missions will be included and we get a new MP3.4.

Do you drive the Sd.Kfz. 7?

Already
It's a very uncomfortable vehicle. Commander doesn't has a choice to put himself out and have a look through the binoculars, the shoots goes with abnormal speed and shells goes everywhere. After a couple times pressing on the `space`(fire)- u're out of ammo. Driver doesn't want to obey. He looks as a he has a paralysis on both hands The crew absolutely naked against the bullets. In short, it's awful.
There are screens after gun of sdkfz 7 was applied.
      \

After a second mission was for the german side, I may say that StugIII/CD is not designed to fight against tanks.
Well, I was sure abt it a couple years ago. May be more.

[lockie]

First mission is ready.

Mission is a very simple - just stay and shoot infantry/tanks and nothing more.

More interesting was fixing a bugs of the sdkfz7
Now commander has a binoculars and can put himself out of the shield (he received a special animation `binocular`).
Also I cured the hands paralysis of the driver  And increased accuracy of the shells, fixed a bit all cameras of the members crew.
I've managed to resolve a problem with auto-reloading key "R".
Decision is a very very simple. Just decreased the time of the shell reloading.
It has a side effect - shell icon flickering in the right down corner, but there is effective way how to get it off. Simply press 1(select other shell type).
This decision is more easy, then sitting before monitor and thinking `What the hell`??? Each time when u pressing `R`
Unfortunately, I don't know how to force unit to shoot from all four barrels at one time.

Some screenshots from the polygon `Polunino` by Deviator. Polygon was adjusted to the latest NTA version. Weather mod 'Late autumn '.
Enter to the village.

Monument to lenin.

Foundation added to each buildings.

The pass over the bridge is blocked by the barrier.

There are beautiful sunflowers.

Corn is a common food
