About BattleGroup-Frontlines:

The goal of BattleGroup-Frontlines is to shift the players of Battlefield 2 back to the Eastern Front of the Second World War. BattleGroup-Frontlines will feature an extremely authentic atmosphere. Features include:

- Historically accurate vehicles, aircraft, and weapons
- Realistic and accurate sounds
- Realistic weapon aiming and firing physics
- Famous battlefields

Our team’s goal of realism is an ambitious one, with the need of incorporating accurate striking powers and ranges of weapons. Naturally, a few things will need to be amended for the sake of quality gameplay. We believe that it is possible to incorporate both incredible realism and exciting gameplay, and BattleGroup-Frontlines will achieve that balance.

In BattleGroup-Frontlines, you are given the option of playing as one of several great nations: Russia, the German Reich and Hungary (in later releases). Smaller countries will also be involved, but not as the primary players.

Welcome back to another update for Battlegroup Frontlines, we hope that everyone had a good holiday season this year! Naturally over the course of the holidays the release of content updates has been slowed, but we hope that in the next few weeks the speed at which we were showing off some of our works in progress will continue.

Before we get started today, we would like to welcome Bruno to our dev team. Bruno emailed the mod informing us that he had over one hundred effects he wanted to share with us. Soon after he posted an application and became a full time dev. We are very pleased to be showing off some of the work he has done for us, and hope that he can continue to aid us in this area in the future!

"My name is Bruno Gorostiaga and I would like to show you the particle effects I do for Battlefield 2 since it came out. I focus on performance and photorealism, I do my own textures and most of them are animated." - Bruno

To show off these effects, we have a series of pictures and a video recorded in-game showing some of the effects in motion. Enjoy!

Last but not least we have our new Flak 38, modeled by Koricus, and skinned by Wasper.

By 1940 it was already apparent that the low rate of fire of the 2 cm Flak 30 was too low for the faster aircraft ariving in combat. So it was decided to increase its rate of fire in order to increase the number of projectiles in the air, and hitting the target. Along with a slow firing rate, the German Flak 30 had a history of jamming during use, Mauser received the contract to produce an update for the Flak 30.

Mauser successfully increased the firing speed of the Flak 30 from 420 rounds per minute, to 480 rounds per minute, this anti-aircraft gun became known as the Flak 38. It entered service in late 1940, and eventually replaced the Flak 30 on the production lines. The Flak 38 served along side its older brother, and even found its way onto numerous vehicles. The Gebirgsjaeger, German mountain soldiers, even had a version that could be broken down into packs and hauled up mountains.

Hello
It keeps crashing when loading most of the maps. Tried to lower the settings, but nothing changed.
Do you have any suggestion?
Thx

Mod is good I love the setting and haven't experienced any crashes. My gripe is the enemy seems to hunt you down despite other AI shooting at it. For instance we were ganging up on a tank and every time the AI always decides or chooses to kill me first even though there's closer targets it should be firing.
And like other BF2 mods like Project Reality the enemy can see through the bushes which removes all sense of evasion and cover.

Engine limitations my dude. Bots can also see through smoke grenades. There was somebody who made a proper AI to correct that but I forgot where I seen it.

IF MOD IS CRASHING after loading map or in the battle - Change all video settings to Mid-High.
Solved.
I love this Mod :3

Could you specify what video settings change to medium? I've got them on high and still crashes sometimes
