Warfare BE (v2.071) =SWF= Edition RC1.32 Released!

[Spartan0536]

Hello everyone, I have been working hard to overhaul the awesome game mode that is Warfare BE, the latest release of Warfare BE =SWF= Edition RC1.32 is now available and is running stable. Please note that this version requires BETA PATCH 96751 to run, this is for stability purposes.

Whats the difference between Warfare BE and =SWF= Edition?
Simple, =SWF= Edition has been personally modified by myself alone where I hard coded in over 150+ guns, more will be added to the list at later dates once they are confirmed "compatible".

Why should I download all this stuff to play this mode, isn't the base game good enough, didn't the developers do a good enough job?
Yes, most certainly the dev's did a great job, however they at launch they gave the community mod tools so that we can make ArmA 2 what we want it to be and make it better than ever, this is what those mods plus my hard coding has culminated into. The time it takes to download and install these mods is well worth the trouble. Trust me, even if it takes you 6 hours on an extremely slow connection, thats still NOTHING in comparison to the months of developing and testing that I have done plus the countless hours of code time that I put in, and I still think its completely worth it! Also some of you seem to think that DayZ is worth buying ArmA II CO and also worth the time and trouble to get the necessary items to play and get into a server, with my mod you download this stuff once (unless updates become available in with case you will be notified) and then log on to OUR PRIVATE DEDICATED PASSWORD PROTECTED SERVER and begin the war!

Why is this so important to you, what does this mean to you?
to quote in a modified sense Fort Minor.......
"This is 10% Luck, 20% Skill, 15% Concentrated Power of Will, 5% Pleasure, 50% Pain, and its 100% reason to play the game!"

Once installed correctly and running you should have quite an impressive battlefield experience like no other, I know a few Spartans have seen what this game mode unmodified has brought to the table, these mods make that even more prominent, enjoy!

Addendum: If any other Spartans feel like some weapons (realistically) are missing please let me know and I will see if I can get them into the mod, provided the community has made them and they do no conflict with the other mods.


*NOTICE*
It is likely that RC2.0 will be skipped for RC3.0 due to Warfare BE Development, RC3.0 will have greater functionality and stability, release date unknown as of yet, however initial development is at 92% and development was stared on July 30th!

Spartan,

Thank you for putting all of this together. Let's get it tested and then try to hold an event soon to get strong Spartan participation.

I enjoyed fighting on the Warfare mod with the other Spartans last night.

Known Bugs:
Some weapons and magazines are not able to be resold in the WF Gear Menu as they disappear, but are still in your inventory when you press "G" by default to enter your gear, once a new weapon or ammo is bought it takes the slot and the old is replaced. currently there is no workaround or "patch" able to fix this, however V2_073 which will kick off RC3.0 Benny in an e-mail has told me that this should be fixed and modding his game mode will be much easier.

All USMC Force Recon units are unable to carry backpacks, this is because there were no backpacks introduced to the USMC units in ArmA 2 and to my knowledge USMC units will remain unable to carry backpacks


Additional Mods Needed
List Coming Soon!


Legend:
Green = 91% - 100% Complete
Yellow = 61-90% Complete
Orange = 25-60% Complete
Red = 0-24% or not possible (will have a note if not possible)

Thanks for taking the time to read up on the recent changes, and for any input that helps make this mod the best to suit our needs. See You On The Battlefield!

Spartan,

Got everything downloaded, the only thing now I need is what to do to get it up and running, and able to connect and play with other Spartans.

[swfwebmaster]

Great work, Spartan!!

[swfwebmaster]

Get this downloaded and install. Be careful of the fake interactive download buttons. There are many advertising buttons made to look like the DOWNLOAD button. Look before you click.

Spartan,

Need a quickie install guide for the mod. I forgot where everything is supposed to go, and how to set up the launch options in Steam. Also, I need a way to switch between beta files, so I don't mess up my DayZ installation.
