We discussed a long time to get a solution and decide that this kind of weapon is useful. We took a look around and checked many weapons who are produced by the Zastava Arms Company. we found the M72 with a large magazine. The M72 will replace the M84 machinegun in the basic class.Our coder nightmare is working on the balance between the different weapons. Every weapon should get an own feeling. So it´s important for us that the community can feel the difference between the light and heavy machine guns.

At the moment our daily business is to get the final settings for the classes and weapons for OPK 0.25. Be sure you will get first ingame impressions of these weapons soon!

The OPK team

We discovered two bugs on two maps “Code Bravo” and “Red on Eleven” which are crashing the server.

We are sorry for that problem and beg all SERVERADMINS to install this small update on their servers.
Thank you for playing and downloading OPK, we hope all our fans will enjoy playing opk for a long time.

There is no need for our players to install this FIX on your PC.

Note: Installpath is mods/

We are working on a larger clientfix to eleminate some other bug.

This clientfix “0.21″ will be released soon.

Your
OPK Team

After a long period of time we can proudly announce the second release of “Operation Peacekeeper” this year. OPK 0.2 is ready to play.

The new version is wholeheartedly an aeronautical update. But we haven´t forgot the infantrymen or tankdrivers…

1.The OPK-equipment:

Maps: 16
Airplanes: 4
Helicopter: 3(4)
Landvehicles: 12
Handweapons & Tools: 42
Stationary Weapons: 2

We added a great number of small and large statics, some of them are destroybale now.

And sure, a battlefield needs vehicles, Tornado IDS and J22 ORAO with their original armament are avaible now. If you ever dreamed of carpet bombing, you can do it NOW. The next addition is the veteran of the helicopters, the UH1D “Huey”. The KFOR Spec OP gets a new toy, the G36c. The sniper get a P12 USP tactical.

2. OPK Monistari Zogosije:

Many new maps have been announced in the last weeks and months. 3 are missing, one is delayed and the last one is included today: Monistari Zogosije.
An awesome piece of architecture, made by Meister Z. Enterable buildings which must be defended by the serbian forces with dark dangerous sewers and destroyable doors.

The KFOR mission, supported by the new “UH-ID Huey” is to conquer the monastery.

3.RELEASE 0.2

IMPORTANT: PLEASE DELETE THE OLD “OPK” FOLDER! (battelfield2/mods/). The installer will create a new folder named “OPK2″.

Sadly, we already found a bug in the installer. Please change the “Run at” entry in the start-menu-shortcut from “\Battlefield2\Mods\OPK\Settings” to “\Battlefield2″. We are sorry for this mistake.

We would be pleased to receive also critics, ideas or helpful suggestions - therefore we created a new area in our forums:

It overrun its time, but now its finished: OPK 0.2! Our team left a difficult time behind. We hope you are statisfied, beacause OPK grow up from ~550MB (0.18) to ~1,2 GB (0.2). Today we release the serverfiles and the Torrent. The clientfiles will follow tomorrow!

I. New Maps on OPK
II. Serverfiles & Clientorrent
III. Changelog OPK 0.2

Today we present 2 more of our new maps. And we decided to add 2 more maps from the -=WTF= Clan. Now it´s time to release OPK 0.2…

I. The new maps in OPK 0.2:

1. Bordercontrol
2. Blockade Policy
3. Wildgans
4. Red on eleven
5. Village
6. Code Bravo
7. Battle of the last Outpost
8. Hill of the Dead
9. Monastari Zogosicje

5. Village

5.1 The story:
The last day there were many fights in this small town. Both KFOR and VSCG try to hold the centre. Because of the city’s construction, it’s impossible to use heavy arms. As it is still unknown if the complete civil population was evacuated, all quarters have to be hardly captured by house-to-house fighting.

5.2 The facts:
Mapsize: 1024er
Player: 16/32/64
Infantrymap

5.3 The pictures:
Small and devoured lanes and dark corners: That’s Gladi’s last OPK map, “Village”. Optimised by mavy and Bierpizzachips.

6. Code Bravo

6.1 The story:
Through intelligence informants, the German HQ in Prizren is alerted that serbian forces plan to install a town near the Adriatic Sea as a supply base. The main target is to avoid the therewith possibly linked displacement of local people and to prevent the construction of the base. KFOR units will secure the town and wait for reinforcement, or - if the town is already captured by serbian forces - force the occupier to fallback. A fix-installed VSCG base with access to the sea in this area would be a big disadvantage for KFOR. Serbian supplyroutes may be shortened and VSCG wil be strengthened if the operation fails.

6.2 The facts:
Mapsize: 1024
Player: 16/32/64

6.3 The pictures:
Bierpizzachips added Singelplayer- and COOP-support to this map to support all our fans to play OPK on the next LAN-party.

From time to time you have to do more than just shoot your enemies.
Today we explain/introduce one of the new features of the 0.2 release of OPK to you.

1. Kit-Upgrade

To give everybody the right tools, we implemented an upgrade-system. You have the possibility to get an upgrade for some of kits (i.e. an antitank soldier gets a stinger upgrade). The following pictures compare the standard and the upgrade kits.

How to Order:

- You have to be squadleader or close to your sql or an ammobox.
- Press your squad-commrose Key (default ‘T’) and choose “Upgrade Kit”.
- If your request was succesfull, a kit appears below your player
- Press the ‘G’ key (or your custom key) to pick it up.

Please note:

- Your kit(that you have chosen in the join-menu) must have an upgrade (not all classes have one .. i.e. the MG-gunner does not have one jet)
- You can only request one kit per spawn

2. pilotkit

As most of you surely know, the standard kits in OPK have no parachute.
If you want to jump out of a jet or a chopper, you should request a pilot kit first.
Note that you have to be close to a plane or a chopper to get one.

3. Change of plans

The change of plans affects several maps.
Some custom-maps (originally from the WTF-clan (www.wtf-base.de)) will be part of the release.
Unfortunately one of our own maps (Osicje Valley) had to be delayed to a later update.
we already presented it in our Dev Diary.

Don’t worry - the preparations for the final release have already begun …
(a Torrent, FTP and HTTP-downloads are being prepared for you right now)
