-Summary-
Dogs of War is a mod I have been making for a while, I originally began making it just for my brothers and I. But ad I played with people in vanilla Faces of war, I kept hearing complaints about how unrealistic the game
is and how there needs to be more vehicles, and certain things changed. So I began making a mod based on Historical Realism, I have been helped by my people like people answering questions on forums or people helping with writing code and doing models, or maps.. Now I Did not make 100% of this mod, I have used other people models, textures and other things for some of the vehicles. But I have made sure to give proper credit in the Readme file. If you think I have not given you credit send me a message.

You need winzip to extract it because it is a compressed .7zip.

thats the fastest answer ive ever had thanks!
but i still cant open it,i clicked download from the filefront page, a window opened offering 2 options, 1 "find" 2 "save" i clicked save and re-downloaded it to my desktop, i then moved it to the mods folder,i used the latest version of winzip but a message appeared saying "the winzip wizard cannot open this file;it does not appear to be a valid archive. if you downloaded this file try downloading it again. if you want to add this file to an archive, first create or open the archive, then drop the file again" ive tried these suggestions but still no joy! this is frustrating because ive seen games running it in the lobby, HELP PLEASE!!!

Wow! HillSide country its so awesome map! whoever did those maps is a genius....The mod rocks i like it it just needs 2 more things like any mod, Need much bigger ranges like a corner to corner in hillSide and for infantery bigger ranges! Its the worse of the mod is the infantery ranges, second Change those sounds of the weapons of the infantery tired of hear them, more realism sounds were cool

(This is just my oppinion, sry i dont know how hard is be modder)

Which sounds do you think I need to change, and im working on giving the infantry farther ranges. You cant give everything to long of ranges though because the maps are just not big enough in the game.

Also steiner_ss are you still having troubles or have you got it to work, if you need more help talk to me on xfire-Dooms1988.

thanks jozor, winrar worked a treat!!!
and also big thanks doomsday88 the mod looks great (the new maps) i will get a game on one tomorow!!!

PPSH41 sound of vannilla sucks for me. the one in the OutfrontII beta is awesome.......all sounds are awesome. I love the t-34/85! Its realistic! Its stronger then other t-34s... Its the only mod i remember now with so (Btrh the 43 is stronger then 85-.-)
And about the ranges u could make it like realwar or btrh...U know what i mean lol
But good mod really

Ya im planning on changing quite a few things still, one thing I need to know is how much people like the dead vehicles not disappearing. I also will try to
-Extend the smoke and fires from dead vehicles
-Change ranges of weapons
-Try and add new vehicles
-Add a English squad to ally forces
and bunch other stuff/ All these will be added through updates.

Ive actually ran into a computer problem though, other then just my harddrive dying on me. I wasnt able to install windows on my new hard drive due to one of my memory sticks failing on me also : /. I will be up and modding next week though.

U could make dead vechiculs and bodys not dissaper??? That would be awaesome! Theres minimum traffic optime maximum and now u could put perfect or impossible

In my Mod the dead vehicles and bodys and items shouldnt been disappearing.

finnaly! great

I have tried to download this mod from file front. The files which I suppose are the setup upload. But when i click open all it does is do it all over again. Ideas?

Well the file you download is a zip file so you extract the mod folder and put it into you mods folder in FOW directory.

Great mod , you made this game to "live" again .I almost throw it away but now the game look nice.Thank you !

I think that Soviet T-34s should be faster.. otherwise good mod!

Well I found the speeds of all vehicles and gave them historical values. So dont think that will be changing. At the moment though im not really doing much with the mod until Men of War is released to see what they have changed in that before I go spending hours on things that they may have perfected in new game.
