I was wondering is there was a newer version of the Die Hard mod? I thought I heard that there was a 1.4 version, however I can not seem to find it.
Thanks, Jeff |

Thanks, Jeff Hmm, we only have 1.1 I believe. You can try asking Novik (he's registered here) about it. If there is, please let me know and I'll update the files section. -------------------- Greetings from Olav

I PMed him and here is what he sent me. It looks like the mod is up to version 1.52. I am not sure if this will work on the English version or if it only for the Russian version

I say!
v1.1: 2 kB v1.52: 13.26 MB ... I have a suspicion that the mod has expanded a bit in scope. Novik? What news in the new, wonderful version?  |

About half of the size is sound files. Not sure what. I think the Die Hard mod is what eventually became Hammer & Sickle (or was it another mod? Can't be sure...)

Hi,
This is my first post on this Forum so I'd like to say hell to everyone. If anyone (like me for example) was wondering how to install DieHard 1.52 mod, here are detailde english installation instructions I have received from Novik: QUOTE 1.52, the latest version. http://vif2ne.ru/s3/stuff/s2/DieHard.rar [7M] - core files http://vif2ne.ru/s3/stuff/s2/DieHard_sounds.rar [5M] - optional sounds (some songs for radio) http://vif2ne.ru/s3/stuff/s2/Diehard152_src.rar [180K] - source in s2m format (if you is player only, not modder, you don't need it) http://vif2ne.ru/s3/stuff/s2/DieHardCfg.rar [200K] - mod configurator (optional) Requirements: Last game patch (1.2? I dont remember. I think, gold version already contain it) Installation (for original S^2): Unpack all archives to game directory. I don't know anything about S2 Gold version, may be mod's for original version compatible with it, may be not. Try. After unpacking you must see at game directory some like this: DieHard\ <mod's directory> game.exe <game exe file> .... Applying. 1) Start game, choose "Custom game" in main menu (or some like this item, i hav'nt english version) 2) You must see two windows, empty at left, and with some items at right. Transmit item "DieHard 1.52" from right to left and press "Apply". You don't need to repeat this step in future, do it only once, before start new scenario. 3) Start new allies scenario. Remarks. 1) This is very old work, 4 or 5 years ago. May be It contain some errors, be patient. 2) Mod contain some russian dialogs, strings and sounds. I can't translate it's, my english is too bad for this. 3) In DieHard\ directory you may see program DieHardCfg.exe, this is a mod's configurator. With it you can change game's balance. If you want to know more about it - try to read DieHard\readme.txt with some russian->english translator. For example - http://www.online-translator.com/text.asp?lang=en Best regards, Ros. |

I am having trouble with the Diehard mod, it locks up whenever starting missions. I've tried adding it with the custom came menu and with addmod. When added with addmod to a gave saved during a mission it works fine until it gets to the start of the next mission then locks right at the begining of the mission. Any ideas? Thanks.
