SWAT4: SEF Mod
Maybe some of you have heard of this mod already. If not, you should definitely test it
"SWAT: Elite Force" is a Swat4:TSS mod that might be interesting for campaign and coop players especially. The mod has been developed by eezstreet and was released in 2016. It is a massive overhaul of the game, aimed to solve the biggest flaws of the vanilla version and giving a more realistic experience. Most important features: - Original Campaigns from Swat4 and Swat4:TSS, plus a new campaign (including Permadeath-option) - restored cut content (traps, new dialog, new equipment and cut missions) - Improved AI - Less-Lethal can actually hurt and incapacitate persons - new weight and bulk system (heavy gun or many tac-aids will slow you down) - Optional ironsights http://www.moddb.com/mods/swat-elite-force NOTE: SEF mod does not replace any files; install it by making a new 'SEF' folder in your Swat4 main directory. The folders in your Swat directory should look like this: - Content - ContentExpansion - SEF If installed correctly, normal game won't be affected and if you don't like the mod, you can easily free your diskspace again by removing the SEF folder. The mod is still in development and version 7 is in the making now. Im sure the devs will be glad about feedback and suggestions for improvement! DOWNLOAD Version v6 base http://www.moddb.com/mods/swat-elite...elite-force-v6 Update v6 to v6.4 (most recent version) http://www.moddb.com/mods/swat-elite...6x-v64-upgrade Start the SEF mod via "LaunchSEF.bat" inside the SEF folder! Info update: Currently there are 4-5 public servers running the 6.4 version of the mod. So if you wanna take a look at coop mechanics and new GUI features you can do this. Either add the IPs to your LaunchSEF.bat (inside SEF folder) - open bat file with the Editor/Notepad - near the end of the file (at line with the Swat4X.exe) add the IP adress and port like this: Code:
[...] CD .\System\ ..\..\ContentExpansion\System\Swat4X.exe 94.130.75.4:10480 REM Tell the user that the game has exited ECHO SWAT: Elite Force has exited Download this serverlist fix: https://github.com/sergeii/swat-patc...-masterserver/ I highly recommend using this fix (replaces Engine.dll in Swat4 folder), with this you can use the ingame server browser to join SEF servers and it works with normal Swat4 as well (also it does not have any bugs, like the Markmods fix). From my experience, the browser version (Chrome, Firefox, Opera etc) of swat4stats.com, does not always display all the available servers, whereas the ingame browser displays everything immediately. Available servers: SEF-Server List @ www.swat4stats.com EU Official >> 195.201.217.123:40480 NA Official >> 74.91.113.150:10480 To get more info on the mod and download available updates, check out the moddb page http://www.moddb.com/mods/swat-elite-force To get in touch with the developers you might also visit the SEF channel on discord https://discord.gg/RfujTnF Greetings

Would be nice to have this on TSS. One problem is that not a lot of people know for this or have it.

Hey,
sure thing i did came a cross that mod .. but currently our ressources a little low thats why we dont have a server running atm with SEF. There is ONE server Online with the mod take a look here https://swat4stats.com/servers/94.130.75.4:10480/ I do really recommend to use the swat 4 stats service more often to check servers and even get the server browser list of swat 4 stats by downloading the engine.dll from github - https://github.com/sergeii/swat-patc...r-server-patch Have a nice day Inspector!

Hey Defcon,
i guess you overlooked my last post. Actually there are 4-5 servers running the mod. Unfortunately most servers running the SEF mod are not listed in the Browser version (in Chrome,Firefox etc..) of swat4stats.com site. With the ingame browser they are visible tho. Furthermore the Official servers do not have a Anti-Crash protection and need to be restarted manually when the game hangs. So i experienced downtimes where i couldnt connect. But they are online and a guy involved in the mod development is maintaining them. The mod is still in development but plays out pretty good! I highly recommend to test this mod. Unlike, in SAS mod for example, the focus is not shifting away from police force - its still our beloved Swat game but improved and enhanced in many aspects. Greetings

Guys, this mod is amazing! Check it out!
I'm gonna post the relevant links. But, if you look at the server list you will see a lot that are running version "SEF / 6.4". The reason is they are using an insane mod!
This mod lets you use your mic to control the A.I (its pretty good, too), it lets you run in very high resolutions, it has the ability to combine SWAT 4 and the expansion missions into one campaign, it has a level editor, it supports a bunch of custom made maps (I'v yet to download any), it has a new mechanic which is a weight system so you can carry more or less gear and be affected by it, it has a bunch of new "realism" features such as "less lethal" opposed to "non-lethal" (I.E stun guns can kill the elderly or kids, beanbags can kill people if too close, etc...) It has new gear and quality of life improvements. Best part? It is essentially a self ran mod, so you can still play the original SWAT 4 and expansion without any of the mods! Super easy to install, too. Just go to this link: http://www.moddb.com/mods/swat-elite...elite-force-v6 Extract the file to your swat 4 folder. A new folder will be created called SEF. Then, update the mod to version 6.4 using this link: http://www.moddb.com/mods/swat-elite...6x-v64-upgrade Again, extract it to the SWAT 4 folder and choose to replace the files. You can open the mod by opening up the new "SEF" folder that was just created. Go to the file "LaunchSEF" and BAM. You're set! I highly reccommend the server gets swapped to this mod and some kind of announcement made. More people need to know about this mod! |

Hey solidusbucket,
i have looked into the mod before as you can see the history above. but my problem with the mod is that it overwrites files of vanilla and tss. that will prevent u from playing on a non modded server, if you find a way to be able to do both besides 2 swat 4 directories then i would be all game. |
