In-depth

Hello and welcome back to another update of Forgotten Hope 2. Today, we'd like to show you the M1A1 Bazooka and the new depth of field effect. Before we start with the news though, we first want to say welcome to the latest member of our development team: Seth Soldier. Seth Soldier will be modelling, skinning and animating new weapons.

The Rocket Launcher M1A1 "Bazooka" first entered service with US troops during Operation Torch, in 1942. It was capable of penetrating up to 100mm of armour and had a maximum effective range of about 120 metres. Its design proved to be so successful that it was immediately copied by the Germans, which eventually led to the Raketenpanzerbüchse 54 "Panzerschreck". During the war, almost half a million Bazookas were produced. This bazooka was Made by Remdul and ctz.

The next item we have to show today is the Depth of Field shader by Jodonnell. This shader simulates your eye focusing on the target, causing everything on the edges of your screen to go out of focus and appear blurry. You'll see this shader every time you use the ironsights on your weapon.

That's all for this week, but be sure to come back next time for another update. Until then, feel free to visit our IRC channel and our public forums to discuss this update and other news.
