Thumbs up New mini mod- Desert Combat Extended .39K fixes all balance issues!

DC_Extended is an extension of Desert Combat for Battlefield 1942. It's purpose is to add certain weapons that most feel would make the game more fun to play, modify existing weapons to compensate for minor annoyances and to modify certain official maps to take advantage of the new weapons.

The idea is that using existing models and program code from Desert Combat you can tweak things here and there to make it a little more fun to play.

DC_Extended also provides the ability to use the modified vehicles and standard vehicles on the same map at the same time. Only certain maps will have this ability when all the map changes are complete.

Since the release of DC 0.39k, DC_Extended also addresses a lot of balance issues that were introduced with 0.39k. The damage system for most weapons has been overhauled to be more fun to play with.

Highlights
----------
These are the simple highlights of what DC_Extended adds to Desert Combat

- Player guided SAM missiles
- Player guided SCUD missile
- SAM sites
- M.O.A.B.
- Parachuting Desert Patrol Vehicles
- More guns on Hind and Blackhawk
- Ural ammo supply truck. Also lays minefields.
- Helipad with seahawk on destroyers
- Phalanx guns on ships

DC_Extended 0.39k.1 is a minor update to DC_Extended so that it may be brought up to DC .39k standards.
Along with DC_Extended bug fixes from the last release a
few new "gizmos" were added to the guided missiles. This
latest version of DC_Extended also fixes up some DC .39k
balance issues that people were complaining about on the
message boards. After testing we've found DC_Extended
combined with.

Version 0.38d.9

- SAMs have a more powerful blast. They were weakened in the last release. A little too weak.
- SAM has a 'health' bar. It's like a timer that shows you how long you have left before it self
destructs.

blow up the rocket.

for 1 second before switching back to the launcher. This is a cool feature for filming movies.

- Added timer to Tomahawk
- Adjusted Tomahawk lifespan
