VGO - Pegasus v1.2 Full Install - International
Oct 25, 2008 Full Version 4 commentsIncludes the full version of Pegasus v1.2 for languages other than English. Includes Auto Updater.
Vietnam | Glory Obscured is a total conversion for Command and Conquer Generals: Zero Hour that aims to simulate warfare during the Vietnam War.
Different factions are the United States Of America (USA), North Vietnamese Army (NVA) and the Vietcong (VC); all complete with realistic units from the time period. Maps aim to recreate the feel of strategy within Vietnam, with emphasis on using the jungle to your advantage. Custom trees create realistic jungles that camouflage infantry for ambushes, only allowing infantry to pass through thick areas blocking ground based units unless your burn a path with Napalm or Agent Orange.
Starting with nine different infantry types per side puts infantry at the focus of the mod. All vehicles support the infantry as they would in real life; similarly, infantry must support vehicles for an assault to be successful. Units such as the Marine Force Recon soldier has the ability to radio in Artillery Strikes, while Marine Snipers can hide in trees waiting for the perfect kill and Combat Medics can revive fallen soldiers.
The mod also features naval units, such as PBR boats and Hovercrafts, as well as massive capturable ships such as the USS New Jersey battleship, so assaulting the enemy opens up more strategic options than before. Insert Green Berets by chopper to set up a minefield to thin the enemy forces out, or assault directly with a mixed ground and air force supported by heavy artillery. Fast rope your troops in through the jungle canopy to prevent them being massacred at a hot LZ.
Use local villages to your advantage by taking them over, control local Berlesk Houses to increase your revenue, set up Fire Bases around supply dumps or burn them all to the ground using Incendiary White Phosphorus Bombs. If your forces are being over run, signal "Broken Arrow" to call all available aircraft to help.
This mod aims to have things realistic, while keeping it fun to play at the same time. Infantry will blow apart when hit with explosives, they will bleed when hit, tanks or explosives are needed to destroy buildings, units with amphibious capabilities in real live will be able to enter the water, whores will be in local villages, thick jungles will conceal infantry and if you don't use a mixed assault force, you're almost certain to fail.
This style of gameplay has never before been seen in Command and Conquer Generals, and makes for a whole new experience. This is Vietnam | Glory Obscured.

No Steps Back!
Testing does continue to make this mod as polished as possible, there are few key things left to finish off before release, but we are close. In the mean time, the testers have gathered a plethora of pictures for everyone's enjoyment.

Being a beta tester means more than just playing the game; it means finding obscure bugs and trying hard to break the mod. Jackseno proved up to the tast; he found that the Marine Force Recon unit was truly an awe inspiring plague of destruction - a sort of demigod of warfare. Don't believe us? Check out this little video Jackseno put together for the devs to stress the importance that this bug needs to be fixed before the tournament.

this mod is great, i give it 10/10
cant wait to see the NVA in game
the sandbag wall says it can hold 3 infantry in the description, but can hold 12? weird :P
this is a very fun and yet serous mod i just wana eat it hope u guys can release the second instalment!! good work to keep it up
Glad you like it, tell your friends! We're going to at least release the NVA, that's what's next on the list of releases.
oh ok, thanks for replying! and of course ima tell my friends this mod rocks!
Awesome. I'm downloading now.
are u guys going to going to make a campaign for the mod and i like the training mission
A campaign isn't planned at this time. We will be focusing on releasing the NVA side next. After that it will depend if people are still interested in the mod.
ok thanks for the info
I have several things to say:
1-That new training mission is awesome. I wish there was another one which teaches you how to effectively use vehicles.
2-In the beginning of that mission, the sky is black. Why? I have an intel core duo 2(2.4 Ghz), a nivada Geforce 8800 GTS (640 mb) and a 4 Gb ram.
3-The AC-130's howitzer still sucks. The explosion needs a new particle effect.
4-Regular AI is too easy.
5-Thank you VGO team for making such a beautiful mod.
Looking forward do VGO hydra.
1. Glad you liked the training mission! We'll keep it in mind for the next release to add one that explains vehicle tactics you can use.
2. Sky shouldn't be black, it works fine for me. If your using vista, that could be the issue as sometimes the display drivers don't show everything exactly right. Try it again and see if that still isn't displaying.
3. All gunships had their strength increased, AC-130 especially. We didn't want it to be a base demolisher, since it is a mid level power. I don't think it would be a problem expounding upon it's particle effects.
4. We made varying levels of AI, try Challenging AI if Regular AI is too easy. If Challenging AI is too easy, then you have transcended caporial existence.
5. You're welcome!
