For those of you running custom (non-EF) maps with your EF server, there is a topic on how to add real AI support here:
http://eastfront.forumotion.net/general-discussion-f2/adding-full-bot-ai-support-to-your-server-s-custom-maps-t136.htm

If you are interrested in making maps for EF, there is a link on what you need to know here:

i like this eastfrontie stuff at all, so is it possible to join as an outsider/freelance developer? i mean i dont want to be formally in, bound by deadlines, or given any task and be responsible for completing it, but such a great thing needs surely a great deal of work and i might sometimes just spam you with some stuff trying to improve things here and there whenever it comes out of me and u can decide if u want it in or not

p.s. dont expect anything at all in near future as i had another thing i must work on so just in the hazy foggy far future :smiley: what is more dont expect anything, it will jsut suddenly come from the nowhere ^^

i know normally this kind of “help” is not helping at all, but such a grandiose project which has so many areas to work on and with not quite a lot developers, your efforts must be divided amongst many places and got constrained about a variety of things, so an outsider can easily get on some individual spots and work them out further

if it stays long enough in alpha i might catch in

your more then welcome to join us! and just as you know, many of our developers are very “Freelanchers” in my opinion, so thats no problem. the best you could help us with could be prefabs and maybe a new map :slight_smile:
but sign up at our forum and we give you dev acces so you can follow us a little bit more bagstage :wink:

Here’s the latest patch for the current version of EastFront.

[i]You can get the 04/01/2008 update from here.

Installation:

  1. Download and install the original mod.
  2. Download and install the previous 2 updates.
  3. Simply extract this (04/01/2009) update zip file over your current files in the ef directory.

Changes:

  • Added supremacy support for moscow forest and added it to the campaigns.
  • Added friendly bot support for coop and training gametypes, (new cvar: g_coop_minplayers, or set it hostgame menu)
  • Rewrote NPC movement code. Uses much less CPU and they work much better.
  • Rewrote NPC death code. No longer those strange models appearing.
  • Many other NPC fixes as well.
  • Co-Op NPCs and Multiplayer NPCs both now work a hell of a lot better.
  • Fixed broken weapon models and configs.
  • Fixed Panzer II missing model (had a bad path).
  • Lots of other misc stuff I cant remember right now.

(nukits) #53

is that server ip still same with this new skin ?

(Tyrlop) #54

we have planned to add it a bit later because of some animation leaks, but that is fixed very soon dont worry :slight_smile:

(nukits) #55

ok ,but plz say it here when its on , OK ? please

(TomTom7777) #56

Great model. but is he holding it correctly? The wiki is slightly confusing but this is what I read it as;

Granted it was a common mistake to hold the magazine especially in the confusion of a battle. So how about adding random smg gun jamming to EF, Say basically just a premature halt in firing and reload to unjam plus a sound effect (something mechanical followed by swear words)

(AlphaRed12) #57

Dude, its the normal ET animations. Give us a break. It takes a good amount of time to make high quality animations.

(nukits) #58

someone could make the thompson there to , i think it could be fun :stuck_out_tongue:

(Saadi) #59

Is there really need for a new thompson?
I dont think so.

(Pytox) #60

It’s on the eastern side so we don’t need a thompson :smiley:
