'BF1942: Forgotten Hope' - Mod Update Available NOW

by Rainier on Oct. 4, 2003 @ 6:05 p.m. PDT

Forgotten Hope Beta 0.5 is about 50% complete and features a huge number of planes, tanks and battleships - not only beautifully modelled, but also simulated in a very realistic way. To top it all off there is a choice of new maps as well. The FH Mod team has released a pair of new patches bringing their BF1942 mod to v0.5d (they initially released 0.5c, but a few bugs crept in so they immediately issued a 0.5d fix). This patch fixes numerous issues, highlights are two all-new amazing maps; Adak Island and Hailar. Read more for download links ...

Get the FH 0.5b ->0.5c patch off Worthplaying (100mb)

Get the FH 0.5b -> 0.5c dedicated server off Worthplaying (20mb)

Get the FH 0.5c -> 0.5d patch off Worthplaying (2mb)

BOTH VERSIONS REQUIRE THE 0.5C PATCH ABOVE.

Installation procedure is:

  1. FH05B main files
  2. FH05B map pack
  3. FH05C Patch (101MB)
  4. FH05D Patch (1.7MB)

The installer may appear to freeze while copying the larger files, but it is just working hard to unpack them. Give it a few minutes depending on your CPU.

This version contains way too many great new maps, vehicles weapons to list them all in this news posting, but you will be exploring the current 7 all-new maps and several dice modifications for a good while.. at least till we release the next patch featuring 3-5 all new maps, several new land vehicles, a few more planes and many hand weapons that did not make it to this release. We worked hard to bring this beta out today (well, for some its already the next day), and being our first release it didnt go quite as planned, but hey there's always a first time!

The next patch (some weeks away, unless we have to patch something sooner) will truly be something awesome.. so watch this spot for more big announcements and updates on the progress of Forgotten Hope.

THIS IS OUR FIRST BETA. A BETA IS NEVER PERFECT. THE BETA WILL BE UPDATED AND PATCHED.

Lots of unfinished or buggy material had to be removed from this first public beta, about 30% of our current total. Including 4 already playable and good maps, several vehicles, stationary weapons and hand weapons. This is not the end, this is the beginning.

Forgotten Hope Beta 0.5 is about 50% complete, with the emphasis more towards maps, aeroplanes and naval equipment at the moment. The future patches will further balance the other areas of the mod including hand weapons and land vehicles.
