    ZED Time...

    Just want to put it out first - I was totally not expecting this new release from TWI. I was kinda disappointed first...I was expecting another RO-style shooter (perhaps Korean War) but I gotta say I'm really happy KF is going retail. So onto my question - what does the ZED Time stand for, and...

    Gas Masks Question

    Hey guys, Quick, rather dumb question: will a GP-5 gas mask provide adequate protection against NBC agents during a biological attack if it is coupled with a modern filter, e.g. 40mm NATO standard? I heard they both modern gasmasks and GP-5s use 40mm filters, but I also heard GP-5s are not...

    Search Help: "Macedoneian Style" use of pistols

    Okay. This all sounds very strange but bear with me, please. :( I remember a few years back I was on a realism mod forums and I saw this neat post about some odd way to wield pistols that were (supposedly) used by Russian special forces called "Macedonian Style". This involved holding two...

    Paranoia Mod - RELEASED!

    Check it out here: http://www.moddb.com/mods/4961/paranoia It is simply incredible what these modders have been able to do with the Half-Life 1 engine (no ****); they've developed projected flashlights, partial lighting (you can light up parts of characters now, instead of their whole body)...

    Russian counterpart to Feldgrau.com?

    I've found a pretty damn cool site: http://www.feldgrau.com/index.html It has info on pretty much every part of the German armed forces from 1918 to 1945. So I could know if, say, the 293nd Infantry div was in Bolchov, Orel. This is incredibly handy for my comic (which is finally nearing...

    Big Bill Hell's Car Dealership (NSFW)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sZuN0xXWLc Apparently someone made this in the '80s, for fun or for a prank, I'm not sure. This video is not intended to bash Marylanders, I just find it f*cking hilarious :D

    Myth-Busting the Ostfront

    As we all know, there's a ton of things that people get wrong about the Ostfront all the time. NKVD gunning down retreaters (and being general assholes), Tiger > all, and dead-out charges were the order of the day in the Red Army; a few of the various myths that go about the Ostfront. So, post...

    the Reichstag and who got on there first?

    I recently saw a compilation of clips from a documentary "Apocalypse Berlin" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tt5n3tu7yNk It's believable enough that there were people who got up there first and were uncredited, but I heard from my friend who visits Poland often that he was trolling the...

    Ostfront #1 (Achtung, 2mb picture!)

    Remember this thread? Well, baby, it's done! (Warning: Huge f*cking pic!) I decided to release this to the RO forums instead of following a usual Gmod comic maker and posting to such places as Facepunch or PHWOnline. Those places have asshat admins, and they will abandon you if your...

    The Ostfront CYOA Game!

    Remember those Choose Your Own Adventure books from the '80s and '90s? Remember those choice-based text adventures from back in the day? I've already been messing around with it on MSN for a while with my buddies, and so I shall bring it here! But first some rules/guidelines: -I do the...

    RO's Netcode = WIN

    Just last night I played on the lowest ping server I could find: 400. Throughtout the three rounds of Stalingradkessel, I played with pings from 280 to 960, and I still managed to get into the top 3 of my team. The lag only REALLY got bad when I reached the 800-1000 mark, and thats when things...

    SAS Mod

    Now don't go all "Omg, just go and find the 'Into the Lion's Den' mod for UT2k4!!!!111" on me just yet. I think that a mod based off the SAS (or Specnaz, hell, any Total Kick Ass SWAT/special forces) would be cool. It would be, in a sense, the spiritual successor to games like 'Into the Lion's...

    Randomised Ammo Loadouts

    I am not sure about how well-equipped soldiers on both sides were, but maybe on later war maps where the fighting went crazy, there should be randomized ammo loadouts...here's an example... A guy with a Mosin-Nagant respawns, but his number of clips he carries in the start are randomised...

    Need Help for Comic...

    Hey... I just started making an Ostfront-based comic using Garry's Mod. I got my hands on some Russian soldier models, along with a PPSh and some of them army hats. I've got the environment, I've got the characters, I've got the front cover of the comic, I just don't know where the hell to set...
