After 2 years of silence, I will cease the development of the mod. Yes, this means the mod will never be finished or published.
The mod was primarily not worked on, due to the Ukrainian crisis. At that time I thought it is quiet understandable, that it was just not the right time to release a mod, which puts you into the shoes of a Russian Ultranationalist, ceasing former territories, including the Ukraine. It just did not seem right to upset people or "chose a side" in the conflict. The annexation of the Crimea made things only worse, and despite of all hopes, the conflict is still going on.
It has been such a long time waiting for an end of it, that I grew tired of waiting. But let us not only blame politics! Much credit to the ceasing goes to my own personal inexperience of modding, although I achieved much more, than I could have possibly imagined, when I started modding.
The problems included:
1. The lack of professional help (pls bear in mind that I was a 1st time ever one-man-team modder)
2. Limited & often unsatisfying modding tools for the game (e.g. I had none to edit terrain)
3. My unsuccessful numerous attempts to fix bugs of, or caused by the mod (especially sound just muting)
4. My lack of knockledge of how to finalize the campaign missions & other scripting problems. & finally
5. The game often crashing, the mod not appearing, or the screen often turning black, when I moved the mod folder to other peopels PCs & they try to play the mod
So realistically speaking: I simply did not have the skills to even finish the mod, even if I wanted. I could have released the Bonus Missions, as 4 out of 5 I actually managed to finish. However, 3 of those are part of you playing as a Ultranationalist (one Mission even taking place on the Crimea), which puts us back to the political problem, and even if that was not a problem, as I mentioned before, it would not guarantee you could actually play them (see 5.).
Personally I think it was a fun experience, but time consuming & exhausting as well. After 2 years I just do not have the will to continue with it. But do not despair, I will provide you with a link to ChudyPicio's Russian Player Mod, which is quiet similar to the one I intended to create.

I apologize to anyone who might have waited all this time for the mod. Fnap out.

Ultranatsionalists and Soviets - explosive coctail. For ultranationalists actually - Russian Empire.
and why soviet-lithuanian flag? En.wikipedia.org
It is the only "Russian" flag in the entire game. One of them is even in Moscow at the entrance of the mall. You can check it out if you have the game ;)
Looks very good!
Looks good, but I don't see anything new except model swaps for the Team you are playing. Will there be Spetsnaz or just general frontline troopers that will be the heroes of this campaign mod?
I am no 3D artist so I am sorry to dissapoint but nothing new has been added in this mod, simply because I do not know how to do it. The campaign will hopefully make up for it. Heroes will most likely be Speznas. With time I will be able to tell you more.
