FHSW 0.7 released!

 

FHSW 0.7 released!

FHSW is back with 0.7! Including Co-op fixes, bug fixes, new gameplay features and 2 new maps. There is also 2 AT guns, 4 AA guns and 13 new vehicles.

FHSW 0.7 has been released and brings substantial changes. New equipment, new gameplay features and overhauls of prexisting content. They have fixed many bugs and worked on Co-op/Singleplayer support. Most of scenes in the trailer were recorded with bots.

Change log:

I've translated most of the change log from the Japanese dev blog, you can find the original source at the bottom of the page. This is a long change log so to make it more brief you can read more about some stuff covered in previous articles like the changes to the Panzer IV tanks, the M6 heavy tank and the firearms lent from Battlefield 1918.

FH 0.7: Download
 
FHSW v0.701: Download or Download 
 
FHSW Mini v1.0 Mod (recommend): Download

 

General:

  • Error fixes in Coop mode: Some of the problems that prevented Coop mode from working properly have been fixed.
  • Implementation of attack lead aircraft and aerial resupply aircraft: These new aircraft classes (marked with an R on the minimap) are weakly armed but have special abilities to make air combat more interesting. When attack lead aircraft are above an certain altitude they allow other players to deploy from planes at their location.
    Aerial resupply aircraft will supply other aircraft with ammo mid-air. Japanese D4Y2, US SB2C Helldiver and British Fairey Swordfish may have these abilities.
  • Ammunition type indicator: The selected ammunition type is now displayed in tanks and artillery with selectable ammunition.
  • Expanded application of door/ramp status indicator: Large landing craft with ramps now have a indicator to show the angle of the ramp.
  • Expansion of the Zoom function: The Zoom function has been added to more weapons. In addition zoom magnification has been revised for certain weapons according to historical data.
  • Revised physics for land vehicles: The behaviour of land vehicles in the event of collision damage and blasts has been completely revised based on a unified standard. More than half of the vehicles have been readjusted so that their behaviour is more in line with their armour and weight.
  • Revision of the accuracy for all weapons: The accuracy of all land, sea and air weapons has been reviewed, dramatically improving hit rates on long-range targets.
  • The models for aircraft seen at long distance have been revised to make it easier to identify aircraft.
  • Mobility of bomb-equipped fighters has been reviewed
  • The damage, penetration and visual effects of the 37 mm - 40 mm aircraft cannons has been revised.
  • Launched torpedoes can now be seen on the game minimap.
  • Machine guns modified to reflect heat gauge: Fixed an issue where the heat gauge was not displayed correctly when firing machine guns in some seats where machine guns and gunnery requests can be used.
  • Improved mobility of mobile towed artillery: The running and hill climbing performance of mobile towed artillery has been improved.
  • Corrected hit detection for infantry/vehicles in trenches: Infantry can now jump out of firing platforms in trenches
    In addition, an issue where vehicles could easily get caught in trenches has been fixed.
  • Increased durability of tank turret bunkers: The durability of tank turret bunkers on concrete foundations has been increased.
  • Addition of turret orientation icons for fortified turrets: An icon has been added to the UI of turret bunkers and tank pillboxes to indicate turret orientation, similar to that of regular tanks.
  • Performances of tank smoke grenade launchers adjusted and icons updated.: The range of some tanks' smoke grenade launchers has been improved, allowing them to take cover more effectively. In addition, the icon now shows the type of smoke grenade launcher on each vehicle, e.g. elevation changeable, direction changeable, etc. Weapon icons for some weapons have been updated with more detailed icons.
  • Updated performance of rifle grenades: The performance of the rifle grenades provided to riflemen has been reviewed and they can now be used more aggressively. Overall usability has been improved by removing wobble when ready to fire, reducing time to fire, displaying cross hairs and increasing the number of rounds carried.
  • Improvised Anti-tank weapons have been added to anti-tank ammunition soldiers: Anti-tank ammunition soldier kits now also have their own anti-tank weapons while also able to set up ammunition boxes. If you find a suitable ambush site somewhere on the battlefield, you can set up an ammunition box and keep your anti tank weapon supplied. Of course, as before, you can also supply your allies.
  • Ballistic corrections to tracers and penetration effects: The tracer and penetration effects used by some firearms had a different trajectory to that of artillery shells.
  • Improved radar function of ships during ground support missions: On maps that appear primarily for ground support, the radar of naval vessels no longer detects targets below a certain altitude
  • Changed effects of shrapnel/canister shells.: The effects of canister shells in flight and on impact have been changed to make it easier for the shooter to recognise the scatter field.
  • The muzzle flash of vehicle-mounted machine guns has been reduced: The muzzle flash of small-calibre machine guns, which are close to the aiming point of view and the muzzle of the gun and can easily cause glare, have been reduced to reduce glare.
  • Molotov cocktail sound effects: Fixed an issue where the explosion sound when a Molotov cocktail landed was not being emitted.
  • Changed time for vehicles with a time-limited spawn point: Vehicles that could work as a spawn point for 30 seconds like APCs and landing craft have had their respawn function extended to a 120-second limit.

United States

added Browning Auto 5 (From Battlefield 1918 MOD): related News
 
 

 
added the M6 Heavy Tank and variants with either reinforced armour or a 90 mm gun: related News
 
 


added M6A2E1 heavy tank: This variant of the M6 heavy tank is equipped with the 105mm gun used in the T29 heavy tank. It has strong anti-tank firepower and frontal armour, but on the other hand its anti-infantry firepower is greatly reduced.
 
 

added M12 self-propelled artillery: A self-propelled gun with a French-made 155 mm GPF cannon mounted on an M3 medium tank.
It was active not only in indirect fire, but also in direct targeting fire on fortifications and other targets using anti-concrete rounds.
In the game, you can select between indirect ballistic mode and direct fire mode, which reproduces the intense penetrating effect.
 
 

  • added 3-inch M5 anti-tank gun: This 3-inch class anti-tank gun utilises the gun mount of the standard 105mm howitzer. It has a large gun shield, which makes it slightly more defensible as a towed gun. However, the sight hole is quite large, exposing the gunners to sniping.
  • added 90mm T8 anti-tank gun: A prototype version with a 90 mm barrel is also added, one of the more powerful AT guns in FHSW.


  • M19 anti-aircraft self-propelled artillery: It is now possible to fire two guns by clicking left or right. The sights have been changed to optical sights.
  • M3 Lee/Grant medium tank: It is now possible to select canister shells for the 37 mm gun. A zoom function has also been added to the M3 Lee 37 mm gun (except for early types) to reflect the research findings.
  • Sherman Jumbo Assault Tank & M4A3 Sherman (105 mm howitzer): Fixed an issue where the seating order was different from other Sherman tanks.
  • M18 Hellcat tank destroyer: Turret turning and vertical adjustment speeds have been improved.
  • M8HMC, M8A1GMC and T88HMC: it is now possible to select canister shells.
  • T34 Calliope self-propelled rocket artillery: An issue with a discrepancy between the angle of the sights and the rocket launcher has been corrected.
  • GMC Trucks: Fixed an issue with the ammunition replenishment type, where the ability to replenish weapons in the surrounding area by the vehicle itself was not functioning correctly. Even without ammunition crates in place, ammunition can now be replenished simply by being adjacent to friendly weapons, just like supply trucks in other countries.
  • Bofors 40 mm anti-aircraft gun: The sights on the single-mounted type have been made higher resolution and an issue where the viewpoint was slightly off-centre of the sights has been fixed. The overall accuracy of the ship-based types has been revised to be equivalent to that of their land-based counterparts. The accuracy has been made worse for those with multiple barrels. Cooling capacity has been improved in view of the fact that some models had water-cooled barrels.
  • 28 mm anti-aircraft gun: Accuracy and cooling performance have been revised.
  • South Dakota: A problem with the increased machine gun pointing in a different direction to the sights has been corrected.
  • Enterprise: Fixed an issue where the soldier model in the first seat was exposed to the outside and could easily be killed or wounded.
  • Benham class destroyer: Fixed the position of some ladders.
  • F2A Buffalo: Fixed an issue where the nose could easily drop.
  • TBF Avenger: Fixed an issue where Tiny Tim-equipped models were prone to self-destructing.

  • AS43 Safariana armoured vehicle: Fixed an issue where the artillery request icon was not displayed in the machine-gun mounted seat.
  • P.108B: The 20 mm machine gun in the nose has been replaced by a 12.7 mm machine gun, reflecting the archaeological evidence. Fixed an issue where the vertical tail wing dynamic wing had no hit detection.

United Kingdom

  • added Centurion Mk.3 medium tank: A post-war Centurion with a new turret with increased armour thickness and a long-barreled 20-pounder tank gun.
    It has a 20-pounder gun with excellent penetrating power and highly accurate shooting with a stabilizer, becoming a true 'main battle tank'.

  • Crusader-type vehicles: Made it less likely for infantry riding on top to fall off from the tanks when moving.
  • Crusader Anti-Aircraft Tank Mk. III: The minimap icon has been changed for anti-aircraft tanks.
  • Infantry Tank Mk.II Matilda II: Fixed an issue with the vehicle body vibrating vertically during multiplayer.

  • QF 3.7-inch anti-aircraft gun: A variant with the option of armour-piercing rounds has been added.
  • Hood: The position of bullet generation has been adjusted for the UPAA anti-aircraft rocket launcher to make it more difficult to misfire at allies on deck.
  • Lion: An icon has been added to indicate turret orientation.
  • L-class destroyers: An icon indicating turret heading has been added.
  • 2pdr 40mm pom-pom gun: Overall accuracy has been revised.
    Accuracy is worse for the more multiple guns, but still a significant improvement over previous versions overall.
  • Hurricane Mk.IID: An issue where armament and model outline did not match has been corrected.
  • 3.45-inch RCL: Since the HESH Ammunition type is superior to HEAT the option for players to pick between them has been removed.
  • 50lbs Explosive: An issue where the power and blast range were set too high has been corrected. It also no longer sticks to vehicles.

Germany

Panzer IV: The models and textures of all Panzer 4 tanks except the Sturmpanzer 4 have been redesigned and specifications have been revised on all tanks. related News

  • added Zerstörer 45 anti-aircraft tank: related News
 

 added 3.7cm Flak 43 anti-aircraft gun: related News
 
 

 added Jagdtiger 8.8cm PaK43/3: This variant was built in small numbers as a last-ditch measure due to delays in the mass production of the 12.8cm gun that was originally to be fitted.
Compared to the normal 12.8cm gun type, the gun's power is reduced, but thanks to its larger body, it can carry more ammunition. It also has a faster loading speed, making it better suited than the normal type for corrective fire against fast, small targets and for one-versus-many battles.
 

 added Do335: An extremely ambitious fighter aircraft with a unique two-engine configuration, combining the high power output of a twin-engined aircraft with the nimbleness of a single-engined aircraft.
The fighter-bomber variant can carry up to one tonne of explosives in addition to 20 and 30 mm machine guns. The interceptor variant has an additional 30 mm machine gun instead of bombs.
 
 

 
  • Panzer III: Fixed an issue with the vehicle body vibrating vertically during multiplayer.

  • added 72-K 25mm anti-aircraft gun: single gun mount.
  • added 94-KM 25 mm anti-aircraft gun: twin gun mount.
    These are light anti-aircraft guns that fall between 37 mm and 12.7 mm.
    The mount with a single gun has a gunshield and the twin mount has twice the firepower, both are useful against aircraft at low-altitude.


72-K and 94-KM self-propelled anti-aircraft guns mounted on trucks have also been added.
 

added 29-K 76 mm self-propelled anti-aircraft gun: This is a large self propelled anti-aircraft vehicle with a 76 mm anti-aircraft gun that appeared in the inter-war period. Like other heavy anti-aircraft guns, it is equipped with anti-aircraft shells and armour-piercing shells, but unique to the Soviet 76 mm anti-aircraft gun, is a powerful anti-aircraft shrapnel projectile that can also be selected. This is a canister shell with excellent power against enemy aircraft passing at high speed at close range, as well as on soft targets on the ground.


  • added Mig-3 Series 34: A mid-production variant of the Mig-3, a high-firepower version with two 20 mm machine guns in the nose.
  • Mig-3: High-altitude speed characteristics and dive performance have been improved.
  • added Yak-3: A new Soviet aircraft that appeared in the middle of the war, a step behind the Yak-9. It had a greater power to weight ratio, so it had excellent top speed, climbing power and manoeuvrability. Firepower remained unchanged from other Soviet aircraft, but the post-war Yak-3P that is also added is equipped with three 20 mm machine guns in the nose.

  • ISU-based vehicles: Fixed an issue with random parts causing crashes and an error in armour thickness.
  • ISU-122BM, ISU-152BM and ISU-130: all now have a second level of sight zoom for their gunsights to reflect historical data.
  • BT-7 fast tank: An issue with the firing position of the main gun shell being misaligned has been corrected.

  • The Polish army now uses the Nagant M1895 revolver instead of the Enfield No 2 for greater historical accuracy.

Japan

  • added Te-ke Type 97 Light Armoured Vehicle: This is a very small but bean-counted tank with a 37 mm gun. As an armoured vehicle, there is nothing much to see apart from its light mobility, but it is available in a type that can set up 'forward bases'. This is a respawn base for friendly soldiers that is only active for 120 seconds after it is set up, and can be the starting point for an unexpected surprise attack if used well. However, they cannot be reinstalled and can easily be destroyed by enemy fire or melee attacks, so you will need to think carefully about where to place them.



  • added Type 93 13 mm machine gun: This is an anti-aircraft machine gun used in the relatively early years of the war. In addition to the single-barreled type, there are also two-barreled and four-barreled types, which are mounted on ships and are also available in ground-based versions.
