The Patch 1 does the following :
-fixed : WW4 West Recon troops have their complete wound texture now
-fixed : the turret of the WW4 West HMMWV in 1st person view is now turning correctly
-fixed : the East WW4 Armor BTR999 floats a bit higher on water to prevent nearly invincibility against missiles
-fixed : the strange bug that made the M202A1 flash launcher to crash when firing for some people
-added : a rocket launcher version of the M202A1 (West -> Men -> Flash Grenadier 2 )
-fixed : the Javelin/Vympel/SMAW left a wrong model for when you put down a missile, went back to default OFP model
-fixed : the AN-94+PSO had a very badly defined firemode that was crashing the game when switching to it.
-modified : increased every bullets damage by 0.5, it's a subtle change so the impact is not too much on the WW4 type of gameplay i want, but it allows some more balancing with the armor system.
-added : Ammo crates for West, East and Everon weapons, available in Empty -> WW4 Ammo
-modified : WW4 Cars use now the same machinegun as the WW4 Armors
-fixed : wrong unitinfotype for the WW4 BRDM that was not displaying the ammo count

oh my god i am so glad to see modding continuing on OFP great game and i hope it grows even though i bet it will just shrink.
i do not hear voices in mp coop missions after instal this mod..please help
great mod :) ..but I do not hear voices in my multiplayer missions...bots nothing talk :( ..please help
Great mod sanctuary, I love all the types of units, they allow some very varied scenarios.
Thanks again for helping me sort out my pistol animations, by the way!
Great mod Sanctuary. Thanks for all the effort.
Meh.. thinking of the concept "WW4" I'd expect some hardcore futuristic **** :P. But hey, I guess I'll have to stay open for new ideas.
So is this mod simply a unit pack, or does it come with missions? Not that I don't mind making my own, but they generally end up being really simple (two groups with orders to run at each other :P ). In any case, a space on my hard drive is deserved for any OFP mod! tracking...
In the package there is no missions included, you can use the numerous troops and factions in the mission editor to setup your own battles and skirmishes without a problem.
Their specific optimisation allows the user to setup larger battles than usual without the game engine crawling.
I have an expansion pack for the mod in my plannings, it should feature a campaign and several missions. But as anything it takes time to complete them.
Meanwhile, Roadki11, that recently released the Nogova troop addon, completed a mission pack for the WW4 mod that you can download on the OFP USER MISSION section of the Bohemia Interactive forum.
I can't provide the direct url as having my account here only recently, ModDB does not allow me to post links, but you can reach the Bohemia interactive forum by clicking on the "Official Page" link of the WW4 mod profile.
And if you make missions, you would be welcome as anyone to share them with the mod users, it had always been the problem with OFP since 2001, so many mod and addon makers release their work for the community, but so few people are actually releasing the missions they make with them ;)
i've installed ww4 ver. 1.0, but, when i used the radio command, no voice played
In OFP, the AI is slow to react because it is coded to wait for voices files to stop.
This creates lot of annoyance, by example you are a tank commander and your AI gunner, or an AI from a tank in your group report the presence of an enemy tank and of an enemy AT specialist nearby.
At this point you have already ordered your AI gunner to fire.
But the AI gunner does not fire because it waits for the sound files of the report to end.
And when finally it fires, you have already recieved Sabot and RPG that depleted your armor.
The same apply to infantry combat, when you want to place your AI squadmate more tactically according to a situation you have encountered, or ask each AI to target or attack a specific target, the process will take so long that half your AI squad will be dead before all the voices sounds from your order have finished.
This way the WW4 AI are extremely responsive and those kind of very annoying situations never happen anymore.
If you want to go back to the slow to react AI and all those annoyance, there is an easy, as i provided an alternate config for this.
Here is a step by step explanation if you are new to OFP mods :
To get back the radio voice (and so unfortunately the slow and dumber AI)
1-in the @ww4mod1 folder you will notice a subfolder named "bin"
2-in this "bin" subfolder you have a file named config.cpp
3-delete that file (or move it elsewhere so you have a backup)
4-always in this subfolder, you will notice another subfolder named "radio"
5-in this "radio" sub - subfolder you have another file named config.cpp
6-take this config.cpp and put it where the one you just deleted was, directly in the @ww4mod1\bin\ folder.
That's all, next time you will launch OFP with the mod, you will have the radio voices back, and so you will have the slower and dumber AI too.
