WW2 Radios - IFA & FOW

Description
THIS IS COMPATIBLE WITH BOTH STANDARD TFAR AND TFAR BETA!

We do not hold beach, say again, we do not hold the beach!

This is the same as the SPE 1944 version of this mod but for those who do not own or want the DLC, this provides radios using IFA and FOW.

While communication devices for all individual soldiers did not yet exist, this mod aims to allow for period correct radios that allow practical yet immersive play of all WWII content using either standard TFAR or TFAR beta

This mod adds the BC-611 "Handy-talkie" radio for Allied, captured Axis and Soviet short range communication complete with custom UI, realistic long range radio backpack UI and increased radio backpack carrying capacity for all WW2 Radios variants *See Arsenal for new backpacks*

Controls of the radios can be found if you run your mouse over them when setting up your radio frequencies.

@Harry S. Truman but wet Yes, but, the SPE one still requires the user to purchase the CDLC if using the radio backpacks. That's what I meant. But to be more exact: I was asking about making a version that is IFA3 *only* (or FOW only, for that matter), so one isn't forced to run a mod that isn't going to be used to begin with.

That is, of course, as long if you wish to, otherwise that's alright if you don't, we'll just use the IFA & FOW version.

you can use the one I made thats only for SPE

@Harry S. Truman but wet I'm using only the SPE 1944 compat data files, because in my unit we don't use the full CDLC due obvious reasons. The purpose is to use the radios specifically that of IFA3, since IFA3 is much closer to SPE44 in terms of content, and FOW isn't that good anyway.

are you using spearhead in your modlist?

Cool little mod. Adds plenty to the immersion. Btw, would you consider separating it with each to their respective dependencies (IFA3/FOW)? I'm asking because if one has no use for FOW and wants to use only IFA3 and vice versa, then it would make sense to use the appropriate content instead of the whole package. Is that doable?

yes, this one uses both FOW and IFA

I was planning to use this mod for an event that I made for my group. However I noticed that I just can't seem to find the updated german radio backpack... could this be because I don't use FOW?

I can however see the soviet and american radio backpacks

you should use the SP44 one, as I'm pretty sure you guys are using the better backpack models

I see you have a version for IFA3+FOW & SP44+FOW... but my group uses all 3, so which of these should we run?
