The All Mod Post
Apr 14th
If you don’t know by now then you certainly haven’t been paying attention. We’re a site that loves to prop up and support our fellow community members as much as we possibly can, and I feel kinda bad that I forgot to promote a few new mods that have popped up over the past few weeks. Forgive me and follow along, dear readers.
DCUG
DCUG (FFv3R)
I don’t know how often you all kept up with the ongoings of the community, but this is a mod that has been in the making for literally years. Swarmed with controversy and disagreements, Benton Grey has finally gotten this mod out even though he had to make a few sacrifices with the content and it’s not fully finished. However, don’t let that stop you, this mod comes PACKED with content to better represent the DC universe ranging from meshes and skins to FX and actual playable missions. I’m not sure of the exact details, but I believe there’s over 4 main missions in this thing and it’s quite the big download (over a gig), so make sure you have some space if you’re ogling this one, my friends.

Amazanauts by Dr. Mike and Afghan Ant
So, if you haven’t been keeping up with forum news, then you probably don’t know what this post is about. That’s OK; let me fill you in on some deets. A few months ago, Dr. Mike teased that he was returning to modding. As time passed, we learned that he and Afghan Ant were working together on a new mod that would introduce some new and interesting tricks into the Freedom Force modding circuit. A few weeks ago, myself and a few others got to test the beta version. As of today, the mod is finally out and you can grab it here: Amazanauts
PCTales, Episode 3
Mar 13th
They’ve been away for awhile, but Freedom Force is back in action with an all new episode of Patriot City Tales brought to you by the EZscript duo team of John Jr. and Benton Grey. With 6 new missions in stow, what will you be facing this episode?
- Order had a life before he was forcefully merged with Law and joined the Freedom Force team. When someone from his past winds up in trouble, Law and Order rush in to save the day… and discover something shocking along the way.
- Red moon is back and the young Freedom Forcers discover exactly who she is and why she’s so angry.
- Mentor finally decides to leave the base with Microwave following closely behind him. After receiving a call telling the duo to head into Patriot City park, they discover a series of things that shouldn’t be possible! What does it mean, heroes? What does it all mean?
- After Ant’s tricky adventure with El Diablo ended with him in a state of unconsciousness, he has something to prove. Gathering a team together to head into the base of Deja Vu to save Minute Man should do the trick just fine.
- After saving his friend from danger, The Ant teams up with the southern belle, Alchemiss, to patrol the city after receiving a call from the police. What they discover is the beginning of a beautiful friendship and new enemies that threaten to end it just as quickly.
- Overwhelmed by his sudden burst of popularity and eagerness to head into the field, The Ant takes some time to himself by visiting the Patriot City Museum… but such is a life of hero that trouble finds him wherever he goes.
Freedom Force Depot
Mar 13th
This week, I’ve gone a little out of my way to find old FF1 mods and contact their creators to see if it was OK to rehost their lost creations. As I’ve said before about retrospection, I think it’s very good idea for the community to take a step back and look at how far we’ve come since this series began. A lot of tricks have been found, the mechanics have been tightened, and the community is now able to do things that we weren’t capable of doing back in 2002. Heck, I’m still being amazed by some of the stuff that’s coming out of the woodworks now. Anyway, 3 new FF1 mods have been added to the site. They are Psiworld by Jseturtle2, Marvel Action Mod by Furie, and Blade/Defenders by FFJands. If you’re feeling a bit nostalgic, go give those a play, and thanks to all the early creators for their contributions.
World’s Finest
Mar 13th
Ez scripter extraordinaire John Jr returns to active duty this week by bringing us his lovely World’s Finest mod, featuring Superman and Batman. With the world in chaos, dinos running wild, and aliens infiltrating Earth, why not help the duo keep things in order with this 4 mission mod. You can find it on the mods page, but if you’re a little too lazy to hop over there, just click here. You will need to create your own mod executive (read: launcher) to play this mod.
LSH – Title Screen
Feb 27th
New Title Screen
Because a few of you wanted J.J. to add a title and some other custom screens to his recently released Legion of Super Heroes mod, John Jr. went ahead and did it up and put it out for you all to download on the mods page (or if you’re lazy, here). There’re no install directions included in the zip, but all you need to do is unzip the pack in your [mod name]\Art\library directory. Enjoy!
P.S., are you interested in John Jr.’s next mod project? How about giving this thread a peek. Could it be? The World’s Finest heroes back in action?
Happy Anniversary, FRP!
Feb 12th
In honor of our upcoming anniversary, the members and associates of FRP2 have been hard at work at providing a bunch of new material for you all to play with and enjoy. There’re still some stuff left in the ether, so don’t think we don’t have a few more surprises in store for ya. First up, The Crisis Mod has been updated to version 1.1. Included in this update is map fixes,three new characters, some level updates and changes (Aquaman, penultimate mission, etc.) and a few aesthetic changes. Also up for grabs is several new skopes by Dana which you can find on the skopes page. Rounding out the new stuff, Spotlight on MikeB7 and the release of a new FX Pack, PFX 1.2, are up in their respective areas.
As an aside, our thanks goes out to John Jr. for providing a Legion of Superheroes update, which is unofficially part of our Anniversary extravaganza. 
Legion of Superheroes, round 2
Feb 1st
What a great way to start off February, right? John Jr. has been working away on completing his Legion mod for awhile, and today, he finally brings it forth With a total of 8 missions and a wide-load of changes, why don’t you join the Legionnaires and see what makes them so great? Heck, why not download it and then tell JJ just how much fun you had? Unfortunately, as I’ve been told, so much was changed in the mod that a patch form was a little difficult to create, so if you downloaded Version 1 of the mod, you’ll have to replace it with the current copy. Enjoy!
The First Mod of the Year!
Jan 1st
Ahhh, the first day of 2010, and what could be better than ushering it in than with the first FFVTTR [mini] mod of the year? Tell me if you can think of anything better to cleanse your palate with because I certainly can’t. If you missed my last post, then I’ll reiterate the basics of it here. Both Angel and Psylocke have both had it pretty tough in 2009, so why not end it off on a high note by doing some charity for a bunch of kids? Well, too bad that didn’t work out. You know how that goes. 
X-men: No Lost Cause
- This mini mod features both Angel and Psylocke in the main character role. Psylocke happens to get a little more spotlight than Warren, however.
- Although the mod is ONE (1) mission, you do have the opportunity to use your own custom characters (20000 prestige worth) in the alternate version of the mission.
- This minimod does lean itself towards the difficult side, so I definitely wouldn’t suggest playing above NORMAL setting unless you’re a sucka for pain.
- The mod comes with an exta command for Psylocke to augment her speed and strength during the mission. Make considerable use of it; it’ll literally save your day.
- The mod also comes with custom Psylocke keys by Detourne_me and a custom skope (hydra_bazooka) by Area34.
- As a bonus, I included the majority of my fx in the mod as well. That’s right, you get over 200 fx already installed. Fun for all, right?
Mmk, enough talk. If you want the mod, you can grab it here. Enjoy, leave comments (here or on FR), and let me know if you have any issues.
PCTales 2… released?!
Nov 1st
Ok, maybe I was just a day late… you won’t hold that against me, right? Anyway, Episode 2 is finally ready to go, and I hope you all enjoy what Benton, I, and newcomer John Jr. have put together for you. In this episode, you’ll find 6 new missions waiting for you to play. Not only do El Diablo, Man O’ War, and The Bard find a conclusion to their stories, but other heroes find themselves in danger as well. Are we one step closer to reforming Freedom Force or are the villains finally getting an upperhand? Find out in… PCTales Episode 2!
The link above links to a RAR file that you’ll need to unRar over your PCTales folder. If you need help, you can look after the “jump” for more information.
