Forgotten Hope has had some mods that have modded it as well. One is a partial conversion and content addition, Norwegian Resistance which adds the battles during in WW2 that deal with Norway. Another major mod is a client-side, Forgotten Hope Realism Mod that is primarily a sound and texture pack though later version added some custom maps as well. One key feature is that the skins add more historically correct skins, such as swastikas on equipment and uniforms. A third modder using the name Legion has paralleled the development of Forgotten Hope since v.6 with the "Ballistik" series, mods that improve the artificial intelligence in Singleplayer and Cooperative Multiplayer gameplay modes and which later incorporated historically accurate sounds and textures in much the same way that the Forgotten Hope Realism Mod did. see also Norwegian resistance movement for a article on the WW2 resistence movement Norwegian Resistence is a computer game. ...

The plan was to invade the country from its major cities and then proceed to capture the north. Norway was a country of great importance, its strategical position for attacking the convoys and the Russian border made it one of Hitler's prime targets. If the German troops could occupy Norway, they would gain a much greater chance of stopping the allied convoys who supplied England and Russia throughout the war..."[1]

Forgoten Hope Realism and the Sharpest Point

In 2004 a FH mod called Forgoten Hope Realism was announced- pledged to be a combat simulation version of FH. However, the mod soon changed its name and broke off to be an independent modification. Since there is widespread bias against small mod articles on the wikipedia, its information is detailed here. "The Sharpest Point" (short: TSP) is a standalone modification for the PC game "Battlefield 1942" (they will remain in BF1942 only until they finish the 1.2b version, after they will go to Battlefield 2. TSP is developed upon voluntary work, no money is involved. Still the material found within this product is protected by international laws. "The Sharpest Point" can be downloaded for free.
