currently includes six missions:

You play on the U.S side , fighting against endless wave of Vietcong infantry
trying to capture a hill you defend ,and a enemy base to take down in other part of the map as well .

this mission was built on a slightly modified version of the original first map in the Vietcong campaign .

In the second mission you play on the US side , assisting and leading
assault on a village ,and dealing with other sort of nasty surprises .

If you always wondered if it's a good idea to use a flamethrower as
a weapon in the jungle ,this mission is for you...

third mission is a defensive map ,once again you play on the U.S side,
this time defending a base which is under heavy attack .

fourth mission starts with a river patrol but turns into a raid
on a village and later on big river fight .

fifth and six missions : (read in page 9 of this thread)

(and new user interface)

here's the download links for the new version (V05) :

http://www.datafilehost.com/download-a5b5c0cb.html

Or

http://www.mediafire.com/?ktdpj59u6apu0x9


here's the read me :

1. Extract inside MOW:Vietnam main folder .
(or drag the mods folder to MOW:Vietnam main folder .)

2.open C:\Documents and setting\%USERNAME%\My Documents\My Games\men of war:vietnam \profiles\player
backup and move the options.set file to other folder,and then replace it with the options.set
file that came in the zip .

3.open MOW:V go to select campaign and start playing.


If you all ready installed previous version of this mod,
repeat step one and confirm overwrite previous files in the mod folder.

older versions:

The mission are awsome, you have bought the gameplay to a higher level, with force on force type of operations, we use a projector and have supper sized the screen to movie size, we have been able to play all mission w/out any problems, Men of Peace you are keeping this game alive, we have sence finshed the orignal games for both sides, we have just started Dead Before Dawn. Keep the mission coming bro.

Thanks

Men of Peace,

It's kinda strange but the second mission won't load anymore. After I hit the spacebar, the spinning windows circle thing shows up and I have an error when I alt tab out. I re-extracted the second mission out of the original zip that I know worked but no go. I haven't changed anything in my install.

Default Suggestion for the heloicopter

Just finish the 2nd mission, thanks for that. The helo is not what I expect. Here is my suggestion for improvement

It should behave like any other units. Left click on the ground and it should fly to that point rather than crash onto it.

Click "exit" on an open area or rice field should result the helo landing and pilot exit alive. At the moment, they just jump to their dead.

One of the helo start with zero fuel, so it can't be move. But it can stay in the air forever.

The "return fire" and "fire at will" and "free to move" does not work. In another word, it is a sitting duck. Luckily the VC don't like to shoot at it, they just point their gun to it. Surely they can fire rpg or heavy machine gun against helo.

I hope it is possible to make these changes. Thanks in advance.

Default Meld with Men OF War Vietnam Extra Units Addon

Hello Men Of Peace, I love the work you do for the community and I thought that maybe it is possible to merge my extra units to your new campaigns, I've sent a PM about it but I didn't know you rarely check your mail so I thought to give you a heads up about it.

hi guys
first, thanks for these great extra missions, they've bought me hours of enjoyment.
i have a question regarding the Hamburger Hill mission, you said that more men can be recruited in this mission, and in-game there is a text prompt that also tells me i can recruit other men if needed.
for whatever reason, i am unable to recruit any other men - is there some special command to do it? i've been trying the little hand icons, collect/use commands, but can't find anything that actually allows me to recruit anyone. my first squad slowly gets whittle daway, and without the reinforcement/recruit ability, i think i'm really gonna struggle to complete this one.
any suggestions welcomed. thanks in advance

You have to wait until one of your guys dies, then you can recruit guys to replace them. Just get next to the AI soldiers and a hand should replace the pointer when you move over a recruit.

spinning windows circle ?
so it worked in the past ,and now suddenly it wont ?
that actually might be good news if you are able to
identify the problem , what error message do you get ?

Hey man , first of all the best way to control a heli is with direct
control not mouse , and page up page down you set it's height ,
and this is how the helis are coded in this game .
IMO 1c didn't made the helis available to players exactly because
of this reason . because they are annoying to use ,and overpowered
if there are no AA guns around .
