Marvel Adventures Released!

[BentonGrey]

It's done!  Welcome to Adventure in the Marvel Universe!   This is a gigantic mod that encompasses large swaths of the Marvel comics universe.  It attempts to capture the classic feel of a large assortment of characters with new stories set during the heyday of such icons as Captain America, Thor, the X-Men, the Avengers, and the Fantastic Four, as well as a bevy of villains and guest stars.  You can face the villainous Hellfire Club as the X-Men, or struggle to save all of the nine realms as Thor and his allies.

So, what are you waiting for? Join the fight!

This mod is akin to my massive DC Universe According to Grey, though on a much smaller scale.  I have not tried to capture the entire width and breadth of the Marvel Universe, just my favorite corners thereof.  You'll still find a very large mod here, with most of the classic heroes and many of the classic villains of the Marvel Universe.  On the other hand, this mod embraces a similar design philosophy to the DCUG, not trying to completely capture any interpretation of the Marvel U., instead trying to create an idealized version, something of the best of all worlds, in my opinion.  It is most closely based on the Bronze Age, but I took liberties to clean up continuity or for the sake of the story I wanted to tell.

Keep in mind, not all of the campaigns tell complete stories, and all of these are intended to be expanded and continued.  In the future I'll add a Spider-Man campaign, Dr. Strange, perhaps Captain Marvel, and others.

Thank you for all of your hard work, Benton! It looks fantastic!! I can't wait to play it!

[laughing paradox]

I installed FF recently (about 3 days ago!) after quite some time and I was pleasantly surprised to find this release when I was checking the site out yesterday.

I played the first three (or four?) Avengers missions, with my niece and nephew watching intently last evening. They loved it and so did I! The characters are fun to use and the missions and villains have been great so far. I'm a fan of this era of the Avengers, so that's bonus points in my book. I really liked some little moments in the mod so far, like when the

extra Avengers come out to support you when you fight the Lethal Legion.

It been a blast to play so far. I loved the fight against

the Zodiac.

I totally forgot I even made those characters! That was my first real skinning project with Johnny Patches, I believe. Memories..

I told my niece and nephew that I did the work on some of the characters and they were astonished, so that gave me a bunch of Cool Uncle Points™.

Great job on this, Benton. I'll be playing more later this week. I can't wait to try out the rest of the game.

[BentonGrey]

Ohh man, thanks LP, that is awesome!  Haha, I'm glad that you and the little niece and nephew enjoyed it so.   Haha, I bet they were impressed by your hand in the mod.  After all, your skins are a large part of why I decided to use those characters!

Thanks Helix, I hope you enjoy it!

Ohh, and both of you make sure to get the patch.  I added it to the first post here.

[BentonGrey]

I'm sorry this has taken me so long, folks, but here is the third patch, which should make the Guardians of the Galaxy campaign playable and fix problems with the final mission of the Avengers mission, balance issues, keyframe issues, and a few other minor bugs.  It has taken me forever and a day, partially because I kept finding bugs.  Man, the GG campaign was riddled with them!  Also, I've just been rather distracted lately.  I found a few issues I couldn't fix.  For some reason Black Widow's multi-shot projectile power isn't working properly.  "Widow's Barrage" should fire three shots, but only fires one.  I can't figure out what's wrong, as the keys are correct and the power settings are correct.  If anyone figures it out, let me know!  The patch is available below.  Just download and drop the folder into your FFvTTR directory, overwriting everything.

im confused how to install this mod do i add things to the data folder

[BentonGrey]

Howdy CP, like the readme says, just unzip it and drop it into your main  directory.  You'll need to make sure the shortcut has the right data path (it should point to your FF directory).

[crosspotts1.0]

how do i make the short cut to it im sorry i dont know what im doing

[crosspotts1.0]

i cant get it to work this is what i got on the short cut addres

(target)"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Freedom Force vs. the 3rd Reich - Copy\ffvt3r.exe"- game MA - log"

(start in)"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Freedom Force vs. the 3rd Reich - Copy\MA\..\"

is this corect cause it dosnt work

[BentonGrey]

So, open your regular shortcut, or FFX, if you've got it, and copy the address that one uses.  Then replace the data paths with that.  One will point to the  exe file, followed by - game MA -log, the second will point to the  folder, followed by \MA
