EoD 1.50 preview posted on 06/22/2009 by: Lotte

It's been a while since our last newsposting and it's time for an update. The work on EoD 1.50 is at 40% now and it's a lot of work to get these bots into the boats and land safely. But it's worth it and it will turn the COOP gameplay inside out. Especially the island maps like Cowboys from hell, Charly don't surf or rivermaps like Saigon Jungle will have a brandnew SP gameplay. But that's not all. We also have a new map, it's called Baytown and you all know it from EA's Battlefield 1942 Road to Rome ! I've made this conversion cause Baytown was my personally favorite BF1942 map where all the players called me at last a cheater It's no 1:1 conversion, the map was totally reworked except the heightmap ! And because we have only one 'First Indochine Conflict' map it's a Viet Minh vs French map ! Also ike is working on a french map but we've no news about it at the moment. Last but not least the old map River Patrol has been refurbished and it's looking very beautiful now Because there is still a lot to do and some new vehicles will be added I can't promise - but I think the new full version will be finished an released this summer. N-joy it !

Patch 1.20 release posted on 04/16/2009 by: Lotte

1.20 is a small patch that will improve some gameplay issues we've got with 1.10. Especially the AA guns had been too strong, so this little patch was necessary. You can download the upgrade in our EoD-BF1942/Downloads.

EoD 1.10 Patchday posted on 04/07/2009 by: Lotte

EoD 1.10 patch is near posted on 03/21/2009 by: Lotte

The work on 1.10 is finished. We now will test everything again, compress the files and upload the server and client files. Release of the patch will be about mid of April and if everything works fine a little bit earlier. Ike has made a map called Battle of Dien Bien Phu and this map is about the first Indochina war where the french had been overwhelmed by the Viet Minh very hard. Because we have no one who can create models and animations we had to take the original BF1942 french soldiers and some weapons so this is an improvisation, but I think it's ok to play the map. Another new map is called Dak Pek and we have another overworked map: Surrounded. All these maps are in the updated EoD-BF1942/missions section ! So the release will have 11 new and 4 overworked maps, two new teams (French / Special Forces 2), two new vehicles (MI8A / MI8T), lots of revised code and so on ! Stay tuned for the release !

Continuing in mapping the whole Vietnam war we present a handfull of new maps (screenshots in EoD-BF1942 / missions section): Helicopter Valley Operation Cedar Falls Rescue Dawn (named by the film 'Rescue Dawn') Tunnels of Cu Chi (a 98% tunnel map !) and the completely overworked map H Mong Please take a look at the waterfall in Cedar Falls. Though they are just painted it is is looking very awesome and improves the atmosphere. And if you've not yet seen the new MI-8 here's a small video:

EoD 1.10 patch preview posted on 01/12/2009 by: Lotte

We've thought 1.0 would be the final. Well, it was the 'third final' after 0.31 and 0.46. Now two years after modding it's still awesome to play EoD-1 and the community is still growing. Ike and me have decided to create some more maps and here's what we've got right now: Out of fear Que Son Valley (Aftermath) and Purple Haze 1.10 will be a patch <200 MB and it will have some more features and fixes. For example improved controls for the PACV and better physics for all the trucks. Don't ask about a release day cause you know: 'when it's done'

Eve of Destruction Mod Releases! No other military conflict is comparable to those dramatic years of the 20th century. Most rumors spread about the Indochina and Vietnam War are not honest, even though it was the best documented war in history.

EoD classic 1.00 preview (part 6 and last) posted on 10/28/2008 by: Lotte

EoD classic v1.00 is ready for betatest and will be released in november if no major bug will be found in the built. Finally we've got two more maps in the release: Operation Union and Saigon City. Screenshots of both maps are stored on our screenshots site. 1.00 will be a final version so there are no plans to continue the work on EoD-classic in the future. But never say never again

EoD classic 1.00 preview (part 5) posted on 10/20/2008 by: Lotte

Well, ehm....... You know Counter-Strike ? Perhaps you know it and played it in the past or still play it. There is a custom map in CS wich is called de_rats. This little map was made just for fun and the players spawn as Counter-Terrorists and Terrorists in an oversized map as RATS!!! But why the hell do I explain a CS-Map ? It's really simple. While playing EoD with the bots there should be some time for relax and fun There are more than 130 Maps in EoD, all with COOP support. We have a racing map called 'Jocoseness' and have a lot of fun with it. So the idea was to convert the idea from Chris Spain's CS-map to EoD and here's what we've got till now. Sorry but there are no highres pics because the map is still W.I.P.!!!

EoD classic 1.00 preview (part 3) posted on 10/03/2008 by: Lotte

Another Update for the coming release ! We've got 2 more new maps called Swamp (by Lotte) The Convoy (by Ike) and 2 more totally overworked maps Jungle Heat Radio Tower You can see some screenshot previews in our BF1942/Screenshots section. Meanwhile the new AI for all maps is done and I'm tweaking some maps to prevent lag. There are some minor fixes to be done so it looks like a release in November will be possible The new version will be a full again because the changes are important. A patch is not possible cause every single file of the game has been changed.

EoD classic 1.00 preview (part 2) posted on 09/13/2008 by: Lotte

Some new and overworked maps will be added to the next mod built and we've updated our EoD-BF42 screenshot site. New maps: The Rockpile (by ALFfx/Lotte) Heart of Darkness (by Ike) Mission Impossible (by Lotte) Recapture Lang Vei (by Lotte) The breaking dawn (by Ike) Overworked maps: Battle At Ling Chow Than Hoa Wetlands Why? The Rockpile was made for BF:V by ALFfx and it was part of the Operation Prairie. Cause it's a very nice map I decided to convert it for EoD-1 wich was a lot of work. But it was worth it The Lang Vei recapture is a fictitious map. US soldiers try to recapture their base after Charly has taken the area around Lang Vei. It's a clone of the original Lang Vei map with many new features. Last but not least Ike is still mapping a new map with new ideas and myself is mapping on a 'swamp' map. Jackson was working on two maps when his files have been destroyed by a computer virus. Making backups rulez V1.00 will be released about christmastime or in early 2009. There's still a lot to do cause every (>130 !!!) map will get new AI code and pathfindings. The bots are really fine in 1.00 !

EoD classic 1.00 preview posted on 08/17/2008 by: Lotte

While 0.90 is released I'm working on a brandnew AI for 1.00. Bots will get an improved pathfinding and you'll see them at places where they've never been before. Also graphics will be improved and you'll see reflections for example on vehicle glass. The MIG-17 is looking like real chrome in 1.00 Some new weapon kits and missing icons will be added: - Russian Advisor - Chopper Pilot - Jet Pilot - perhaps NVA with Bajonett Australians and ARVN have their own icons now. Of course some new maps will be added and maps without gameplay-fun will be improved. But the main thing will be a much better AI ! This map is called 'Heart Of Darkness' and was made by IKE.
