Start the mod with a new profile, all the Campaigns are reworked! The Tiger Campaign still has the old maps but different Units! And dont forget, its a beta release some units and new campaign are not included...

Just installed the mod and played a few missions. Whow that seems to be tons of new stuff. Great!
On the downside it seems that the new mod kills my framerate and the sounds begin to stutter here and there. Anyone else?
Maybe someone can report it on the russian board.

BTW: Nice that my mission made it into the pack!

Hi Rends,
Same here with the SPM 1.5 Beta mod, FPS has gone from mid 30's with SPM 1.4 to low 20's with SPM 1.5 Beta, but like you said there is so much more going on in these missions. The first mission in the Tiger campaign is just plain awesome. Took out a T-34/85 and it brewed up real good, looks like they enhanced the pyrotecnik effects quite a bit, it's a frame hit but looks great. I'm sure it be refined being this is just a beta and the FPS will get better. Can't say about the sound issues being I didn't notice it but I will pay more attention next time I play.
cheers

P.S. The only real complaint I have is there is no missions with the Panther. I didn't even think it was in the mod till I caught sight of one in my crosshairs pitchafit

Excellent!
Although I did try to re-instate the English version, it still seems to be partly in Russian and the only new drivable tank I can find is the SU 122. Is this as it should be or is my installation messed up?

Hi sg,
Well installing the unofficial patch last in JSGME will change the Russian back to English only in the GUI. It won't change the mission briefs. It's not a perfect solution for everything but is much better then trying to memorize Russian to navigate the GUI. But the in game prompts are in English (if you have them on in the GUI) so you do know if you suppose to take a village, hold a bridge, or prepare for a counter attack etc.

There is a lot of new armor in the SPM 1.5 Beta, unfortunately they are not all user available as this SPM is only a Beta really made for the Russian owners of SFK42 at this time, although we here in the west are able to use it too. The SPM 1.5 authors wanted to get the mod out to the SFK42 owners because it was delayed a couple of times for various reasons. Also a lot of these new units don't have user single missions or campaigns designed for them yet, so it's a WIP. But a lot will be added in updates and soon all the new units will have either single missions, campaigns or both. Probably by the time the English SPM 1.5 version is out all the new stuff will be in and it probably won't be a Beta anymore but the final version.

So what is new in SPM 1.5 beta? Well some of the things I have seen so far is some of the missions have been redone and there is more added (like more troops, more and varied armor, (the Russian infantry uniforms look better to me now) also the SXF looks much better then in SPM 1.4, the explosions look more intense. I actually saw a Russian soldier running on fire. This isn't new but the only time I have seen this happen was in the night missions, and this time it happened in a daytime mission. Plus the armor units looked to have been more refined. Also they have added new single missions for some units and added new missions to some of the SPM 1.4 versions campaigns (like the new mission in the Tiger I campaign, that where I spotted the new Panther model and seen the flaming infantryman). Remember the SPM mods also incorporate most if not all the single mods that came out between the SPM varients. In SPM 1.4 for example you did not have a Tiger I or the StuG IIIG, that came out as seperate mod's. Now there included in SPM 1.5 (and probably touched up too). So now you don't need to have the Tiger 1.0 mod or the StuG IIIG mod activated in JSGME anymore (actually you can delete it from JSGME) since it's all included in SPM 1.5 Beta now. I'm sure there is much more but I have only had a very brief time to play SFK42 with the SPM 1.5 Beta activated, hopefully I and others will have more info this weekend.
cheers

I've only played one mission so far but the atmopshere did feel notably improved, in particular the large smoke plumes that linger in the air just like you would see in war time footage of tanks burning in the distance. However, I did notice a knocked out Stug with completely black textures. I'm not sure if this was intentional ot maybe a conflict with other Stug installations, but I didn't think this effect worked that well. I wish I could spend more time playing and exploring the new version, but I'm too busy with real life commitments at the moment! The SU-122 does feel nice to command and I can't wait to access the other Soviet SP guns especially after last year's visit to the Poznan Museum of Armour which has dozens of running WW2 tanks including most of the SU/ISU 100/122/152 etc (and a completely restored Stug IV)! grunt

i´m currently working on a Barbarossa campaign but decided to make a short brake for a Kursk map/mission using some of the new stuff from SPM1.5.
Should be done in one or two days.
