So I dl'ed the origional demo way back when (the first one that was kind of crappy) and I never really warmed up to this game so I didn't buy it.

Recently, I played the full version (GOTY) at a friends house and I never realized what I have been missing!

I'm now a proud owner, but can anybody recomend to me any must-have addons/mods?

First grab the 1.96 patch from the 'patches' section here.

You can check out the addon sections in this forum for some of the best and most recent addons, alternatively you could search around on this site for pretty much anything you can think of.

This thread lists a number of the best addons and effect replacement packs for OFP.

The most recent total conversion (i.e replacing everything from units and weapons to islands and effects) is Flash FX Unit Replacement.

Been a lurker here for a while and finally registered.

I'm in a similar boat as I just got [OFP: DR] months ago and its the only game I'm playing now. I tried the demo years back and it was too complicated for me as I had just started to get away from CS/team death match games so I went with GR/RvS. Wanted a new tac game so retried the demo and really enjoyed it.

You should go for total conversions that come in easy installers as opposed to getting individual addons that require config editing. They all play and look a bit different so its good to try different ones to see which you like. I have multiple ones installed as I cant pick just one :) The ones below can all be used with the stock campaigns.

The FFUR ones mentioned above are good (I only tried the FFUR2005 one).

I also tried EECP and enjoyed it but it runs on an old version of ECP and you have to hunt down the addons. I've since switched to Improved DMA Army Pack which has the latest version of ECP and single unit replacement pack by DMA.

Y2K3 is another good unit replacement pack.

I also have FDFMod (Finnish Defense Forces) and CSLA (Czechoslovak Peoples Army) which, in addition to working with the stock campaigns, also have additional campaigns and missions that come with them. FDFMod also now has a patch that adds WW2 content.

The main forum mentioned in the post above is an excellent source of info and its still very active.
