WWII 82nd PATHFINDERS


An (ambitious) attempt at realistic mission-designing

Author : Igor Drukov, igordrukov@noos.fr

Credits : OFPEC, BIS, WWIIEC Trenchfeet for his c47, WWIIEC Gogs for voice-acting, all
addon-makers, mission-makers, players with a constructive mind who keep this
community alive. To all, thank you !

Reminder : this game ROCKS !

IMPORTANT : it is recommended to play this mission with a benchmark over 2500.

This mission is a night mission.
However, you can choose the time of the mission in CADET MODE exclusively.

All scripts and sounds are hand-made and sweat-dripping, except for :
* the pushups script, which I took straight from one of Sui's missions ;
* Mars911 C47's sound, which I reworked with original BIS sounds ;
* inspiration for 3D-dialogues, especially the GPS.p3d, comes from LCD.

Add-ons required :

MTCY_c47.pbo ----> by Trenchfeet, the mission is in its pack (~26 Mb) :p
reallight.pbo ---> by Lester, included in zip. Just put it in your addons folder, as usual ;)
weight : 8 Kb
Inv1944 demo ----> http://invasion1944.operation-flashpoint.de/sub_downloads.php
weight : 44Mb

You're one of the first paratroopers dropped over Normandy. Your mission is to :
* find the men of your squad ;
* signal the Drop-Zones ;
* meet the others ;
* free villages.


There are a lot of possibilities in this mission. Try to complete your objectives,
keep low, and survive at all costs. One thing you can be sure of : things WILL go wrong,
and you'll have to adjust. But that's war, eh ?

See the notes section in the briefing for historical details.
In-Game actions are way harder to explain than to use, but do read the Execution and Mission
parts in the briefing.
