Greetings again everyone, and welcome back to another update from the Forgotten Hope Mod Team. We have some big news for you all today. We're finishing testing the linux server version of version 0.65 of FH, and as soon as that is finished we're going to announce a release date and begin distributing over bit-torrent as well as emule. This release will be going similar to the last release, if you don't remember how that worked here's the scoop.



Sometime once we verify there are no further problems with the server version of the mod (which should be sometime this weekend) we'll post the links for emule and bit-torrent distribution. These links will allow you to download Forgotten Hope 0.65, however this file will be password protected. What this does is allow people with slower connections and those who simply prefer this method of download to get the file. On the date that we post for the official public release of the mod, we'll post a password to open this file. Simply put, you can download earlier and get the latest version, but you will not be able to play it until we release the password!



We will be giving out more details as we continue with the release schedule later on this weekend. However today we'd like to reveal two new screenshots of the new upcoming version, as well as three wallpapers for your viewing pleasure!

First up are the two screenshots, today we present the American Willy's Jeep equipped with rockets, as well as the German Schwimmwagen with a brand new skin done by Rad!


   



And lastly we'd like to present three wallpapers, with more on the way. These were all done by Lobo and come in the standard desktop sizes. Simply click on the size you want and it'll take you to the file!
