Beskrivning


ISDF Chronicles
Bridging the Gap Between Battlezone 1 and Battlezone 2

Fight through a fully voiced 17-mission campaign, explore reimagined worlds, and command new ISDF and Scion units — or battle your friends in multiplayer with expanded arsenals and technology!




Included Content
All missions are prefixed with "ISDFC" for easy discovery.

  • 17-Mission Custom Campaign
  • 5 Instant Action Missions
  • 1 Deathmatch Map
  • 3 Strategy Maps

> All content is included automatically — just subscribe to this mod.




Features

Dynamic Soundtrack System
  • Includes Battlezone 2 OST and original community music
  • Jukebox support for Instant Action (Ctrl + Shift + / for commands)

Battlezone: Combat Commander Units in Redux
  • Fully ported ISDF and Scion factions
  • New and modified hover-compatible vehicles like the Ursa tank

Expanded Arsenal
  • Nearly all BZCC weapons ported with enhanced effects (tracers, casings, flashes)

Immersive Presentation
  • BZCC-inspired HUD, UI, and effects (non-conflicting with other HUD mods)
  • 4K skyboxes, upgraded worlds, weather, and planet intro renders

Enhanced Pilot Gameplay
  • First-person pilot view with ADS and animated weapons
  • Jetpacks, grenades, flashlight, and pilot powerups that persist across saves

Advanced Systems & AI
  • Service bays, bomber bays, trucks, and pods with custom logic
  • Improved combat AI, new enemies, and functioning campaign components in MP/IA

Work in Progress (Experimental)
  • Scion morphing, Jammer buildings, armor shields, preset unit upgrades




Important Notes for Best Experience

  • Run in Fullscreen with Shadows = High (avoid Ultra/Very High)
  • Do not alt+tab or use alt+enter
  • Use DirectX 9 (-renderer:dx9)
  • Save often — missions can be lengthy
  • Play in English localization to prevent UI/texture bugs
  • Install on SSD if possible
  • Disable other gameplay-changing mods




Installation Notes
Large download: approximately 7 GB (~10,000 files)

Includes hundreds of models, custom textures, and over 25 music tracks.
Ensure adequate disk space and network bandwidth.




Content Advisory
Contains:
Language, simulated gore/violence, references to alcohol or drugs, and mature themes.




Compatibility
You may notice this mod changes the in-game font and soundtrack in menus.
This is expected and does not affect other mods or multiplayer compatibility — it’s part of the total-conversion design.

  • You’re free to use any assets from this mod in your own projects — just credit appropriately.
  • Full credit list is available in the Discussions section.
  • Huge thanks to the Battlezone community for years of collaboration and inspiration.

For clarity: this mod does not use any models provided by Nielk1, despite their claims.




For GOG Users
You can still play this mod!

  • Download it from the Steam Workshop (anonymously if needed)
  • Copy it manually into your Battlezone 98 Redux/mods folder




End of Development Notice
Development for ISDF Chronicles is complete.
I do not plan to release further updates or new features.
Critical bug fixes may be issued if major issues arise, but otherwise, this is the final version.

Updated every single mesh in this mod because the original port left their normals/shading incorrect, resulting in most objects to appear darker than intended or less detailed. They should now all look much better and closer to how they do in BZCC.

Hi! Started this complain recently. Initially also have 3-5 crashes per mission, but it's much better after i turned off all my graphical settings to low. Maybe it would help someone

Hi Imperator, so sorry for the crashes. Please see my notes above for best experience and make sure you have the settings down. Bzr is very unstable even on stock content sadly, I get crashes in playground. I do agree the bz2 engine is superior but unfortunately I have no experience or knowledge modding there.

If the tips above don't help please reach out to me directly and I will see if I can help further.

As painful as it sounds to admit, missions on this crash constantly and without warning. Grizzly, as much as I absolutely LOVE the work you put into mods like this - I feel this may have been better in the Battlezone II engine due to its supreme stability.

I'll keep trying to play it, but is there any recommendations to stop the no warning crashes and fatal errors?

This is peak. The 13GB are justified.

COD is mid

Still better than COD
