Mod Details:

=========

After a long hiatus I have returned to revise my bolt rifles
only mod. The mod is being developed by me once again but this time is bigger
and better. The first release of this mod will be for Call of Duty 2 1.3
Multiplayer followed by a single player version. The concept of the mod is
about the same; five bolt action rifles, one shot and one bash kills. I've
decided to devote more time into this mod then usual as I don't want this to
done haphazard. I've pumped out many of mods quickly but this one is going to
be perfected to the best of my ability.

New features in MP Version 2.1:

==========

1) New Springfield 1903A1 Model by MCh2207Cz

2) New background screen

3) New skins for Kar98k and Lee-Enfield by KnifeInFace.

4) Grenade damage lowered to zero

5) Ariska from Spain in Flames mod by Triby and AK47

6) Recolor of the Ariska wood done by PlusIce

7) All none rifle slots are now disabled by default, no more needing to execute a config file

8) Mods in the menu screen for quick access to other mods

9) Static crosshairs for all weapons

10) All of the pictures match the weapon in the weapon selection screen, excluding Ariska.

11) Mod and version information on the main menu screen

12) Darker sleeves for Germans to match SS uniform, recolor by PlusIce

Removed Features:

==============

1) @'di's Springfield model removed

2) Weapon sounds for Nagant, Kar98k and Lee-Enfield removed to reduce file size.

3) Some rifle skins removed and replaced

4) Rifles.cfg removed all none rifle removed via script menus by default.

Mod releasing timeline (Multiplayer):

=================

Release Candidate version 2.1 Nov 12

General Release version 2.1 Feb 2013

Release Candidate version 2.2 TBA

General Release version 2.2 TBA

(Dates are estimates)

Mod releasing timeline (Single Player):

============================

Single player version will be developed once I'm done with
the Multiplayer version.

The Multiplayer version may stop a v2.1 GL or continue to be developed until v2.2 GL. If more bolt action rifles get released such as a Carcano, or another Springfield I may continue to build on the multiplayer version. If nothing really happens after multiplayer v2.1 GL has been released and everyone seems to be satisfied with it then I'm off to work on the SP version. If not the SP version is
delayed. Most if not all of the rifles can work in single player. I'm not sure if the Ariska will work in sp but I know the 1903 Springfield, Lee-Enfield, Kar98k, and Nagant will. Though, I don't believe the German team should be one shot kills because that would make single player too hard. Perhaps I'll set the damage on the Germans to 50 (four shots kills). The single player version will have grenades
with damage but not the MP version because I don't want the mod to turn into a
grenade spamming fest.

Release Candidate (RC) vs. General Release (GN):

============================

The Release Candidate is more finished then a beta but the
final touches have not been placed on it.

Here are a few things that mite end up in the General
Release but not the Release Candidate:

1) New Russian winter uniforms

2) Grenades removed from mod

3) Each weapon spawns with one smoke grenade

4) Better background screen???

5) Credits screen???

6) Weapon specifications on menu screen; damage mobility, accuracy. Not really a high priority but would make the appearance better

7) Remove MG's and pistols from mod

8) Integration with AWE and or extreme+

9) Blood mod?

Next Version:

=========

It's too early to say if there will be a next version after General Release version 2.1 for MP. Like I said earlier if more rifle models become available I may revise the MP version and postpone the SP version.

Two ways to run this mod:

===================

1) Insert (filename).iwd into main folder. C:/Program Files/Activision/Call of Duty 2/main

2) Extract folder with iwd file into Call of Duty 2 directory.

How to remove the file:

=================

Delete (filename).iwd

Support for Mac's is unknown. I don't own a Mac with cod2.
