IDF: FFI Update 11.05.08

Hello and welcome to a long overdue update,

We would like to apologize for the long absence, we moved our homepage and forums to the Black Sand Studios server as we were unable to publish a new update on our old hoster.
(note to all webmasters and communites: our domain changed to http://idf.blacksandstudio.com - please update your links!)
Anyway, we are still working on our mod – with a very small team, but we are are working. And to everybody who always asked when there will be a version to download: There will be one as soon as we got maps and code, at least we dont have an mapping-artist neither an coder! So here is the call for all modders out there who are interested in helping, please contact us!

And for everybody who just waits for the screens, today we have some first person shots of our handweapons.

Thats it for today, hope you enjoyed this update.
And dont forget to visit our new forums at BSS!

IDF: FFI Update 30.11.07

Welcome mod fans and readers to another new IDF:FFI update,

At the beginning of this update we want to announce that one of our most important members, SPYKER, was drafted into the army earlier this month. We wish him luck, a steady hand and a good eye when shooting.

Back to the Battlefield stuff, we got another render for you.
THe FN MAG is a general purpose machine gun which was first introduced in the late 50′s, and is still in use in many of its variants as a hand held machine gun, a coaxial machine gun and mounted on many vehicles.

But we got more!
In the last update you have seen the AK-47 and AKMS renders, now we show you some ingames.

Last but not least we show you another toy for the egyptians. It’s the T55 tank, which was developed from the US-Intervention team and improved by SPYKER.

Thats it for today, stay tuned for our next update,
Have a great week.
IDF : FFI Team.

IDF: FFI Update

Welcome mod fans and readers,
sadly it took us over 3 months to publish a new update, but we have not been resting. We are proud to announce that our arsenal of weapons is almost complete! Many new and miscellaneous tools of destruction will stand to your disposal. In this update we show you the K98 for the IDF soldiers and the AK47, AKMS and RPD for the Egyptians.

The K98 is a well known weapon from many World War II games, an icon of the WW2 German army and also used by the IDF until the early 70s. We have two versions, one without and one with a scope on it.

An absolutely standard in today’s computer games is definitely the Avtomat Kalashnikova Model 47, better known as the AK-47. a weapon that became and Icon in the 20th century. We will have two versions of the AK: The regular one and the AKMS, with a folding stock.

The last render for today is the RPD. It was the standard squad automatic weapon of the soviet army during the 1950s and 60s years. As nearly every other soviet made weapon it was widely
exported and used in many conflicts around the world.

And as a kind of special gift, we present you the Interview with Vestalis made on the GamesConvention 07. At least the video is in German, but we managed to create some subtitles in English. We just cant get the subtitles into the movie itself, so you will have to load the video (.divx) with an extra subtitles file (.srt). We recommend the VLC Media Player
for watching the video!

Visit our site for watching / downloading the interview!

That’s it for today, we want to thank Chillix from Fallen Times modification for taking some time off and helping us skinning these beauties.

Stay tuned for our next update.
Have a great week.
IDF FFI team.
