Delete the old FHSW version first by simply deleting the folder "FHSW" from ..\Battlefield 1942\Mods\
Then drag & drop the new one in there. Done! Deleting STFHSW (Sound & Texture Pack) is not required.

three new maps so far

"Appenins" (sounds like "apenis" wacko )

A map with high mountains and massiv defensive on axis side, the allies must attack (push) On axis located the Wirbelwind, Leopard, Sturmtiger and Tiger I with 75 mm autoloader. Allies get T 22 and T 20 if I remember right. One new pickup kit for axis detected: MG 42 in both modells in one kit  cry . Use it as light MG or mount it on Lafette or tripod. Included P38 and Binoculars  yes up

"Siegfried line"

with the massive FLAK bunker on it, very nice terrain and some new units, like the german leopard with some sister modells. Any of it has a periscope in the seat of comanders cupola, Wirbelwind and that big MGC on allied side and a small tank that reminds me to Chaffee
At last I would say it is a restructured map "Fall Gelb" But nevertheless very nice!!!

"Ural mountains" (1947)

Very very beautyfull map!!!! Push, axis has to erase the russians. Mountained with detailled industry area in the back of the map very nice and much places to hide for infantry. Big tanks for each side Maus, improved Kingtiger and so on russians IS 3 big ISUs massive amount of stationary turrets and AT guns
Nice planes but it feels like the range of sight is shorter as on Remagen weep .

So far from my side smile

New maps again lack lightmaps sadly. Aesthetic-wise Ural Mountains looks good, Appenins could need some more details imo. A bit weird to see a Flakturm in a rural area but could be fun storming it.

Can't find the train, looks like they haven't had the time to add it in 0.55.

The new horizontal bomb sight is interesting albeit a bit confusing at first, it also makes dive bombing with heavy bombers almost impossible which I approve.

Edit: Stashuv Area got removed. sad As well as Blackknight, Crete, Imphal, Liliput, River Kwai, Merville Battery, Sittang Bridge and Spurning Fate.

They removed Crete, River Kwai, and Sittang Bridge? Those are classic maps.

I love/hate the new patch. Hate the new level bombing system as I just prefer other methods of level bombing, I'm upset that they removed many of my favorite maps, and I'm worried that my PC may not be able to handle the destructible objects.

On the bright side there are new maps and vehicles.

I guess there are certain reasons why those maps have been removed from the data.

I really wanted to finally get the Capture The Flag game mode fixed in this version, especially that eYe told them what to do if I recall correctly sad
And old maps still have no lightmaps

Anyone know how the rangefinder in the Leopard II and the Leopard F ?! There are marks near the ammo icons that I can´t figure out what they mean.

Ah ... I think thats the periscope for all around view. 

I think I found it on the FHSWiki 

Quote
+ Improved Accuracy for Tanks with Stereoscopic GunsightsAccuracy and ballistic characteristics for tanks equipped with stereoscopic gunsights have been improved. Due to limitations, the gunsight itself is not apparent but shell drop has been reduced slightly, and accuracy has been improved. The strengths are specially evident in long distance battles.

You just have to replace 1 or 2 lines of code to make it work, either he didn't see it or forgot it. Not adding my lightmaps is a bit disappointing, he replied to my tweet so he definitely saw it.

I can't, I have super slow internet. ;(

Apparently on some maps you can now destroy certain structures and trees:





I'm also very curious to try out the new bombing sight.



Berlin Outskirts got re-added, yay.

Mr J's Karas also made it in!
