Contra 007 Sound Fixed

Sunday, September 27th, 2009

There were some units in Contra 007 that were missing sound effects, and I have successfully (I hope) tracked down and fixed the problem. You can download the new version of the mod at the ModDB mirror. If you have Contra 007 already installed, just replace the .big file (0Contra007.big). If you are unsure if you downloaded the fixed version or not, the .dmg containing the updated files is 182.9MB, and the initial release (which has missing cyborg general construction mech sounds, among others) is 173MB. The updated 0Contra007.big file is 291.6MB in size.  Please note that file sizes will appear to be larger if you are using Snow Leopard (which uses Base 10 vs. Base 2).

Vietnam: Glory Obscured

For those of you waiting for VGO, the missing unit sounds issue has been fixed.  I will be releasing VGO Pegasus 1.4 soon after the team releases the PC version.  Exciting times up ahead.

CWC 1.5 (build 477), MEC 1.9, Contra 007

Saturday, September 19th, 2009

I’ve switched to a new file host (ModDB), and hopefully the files will not be deleted after a certain time (the problem I had with FileFront).  I’ve uploaded the following new mods: Cold War Crisis 1.5 (build 477), Mideast Crisis 1.9, and Contra 007.  I will transfer the other mods to ModDB as I have time.

CWC 1.5, build 477: Download from ModDB (671.2MB).

MEC 1.9: Download from ModDB (235.8MB).

Contra 007: Download from ModDB (173MB).

Well it’s been a bit, but I’ve slowly been working on things as I have time.  Mideast Crisis 1.9 is finished, and Contra 007 is in the packaging stages.

As far as bugs go, I’m still plugging along with Vietnam: Glory Obscured 1.3, trying to track down some of the bugs that I’ve encountered.  Blitz 3.01 has been converted and works, but not completely to my satisfaction, so I’m still tinkering with it.  Zero Hour’s debugging system on the Mac is virtually non-existent, which makes it very difficult and time-consuming to figure out what is tripping a crash.

I have also updated Cold War Crisis to v1.5 (includes the demo mission & movies released in 2005) build 477, and it will be uploaded as soon as time permits.
