Just updated PRACS using sixupdater, does that mean I have v2.075? Why I ask is that I see files (pbo's) with different dates (latest with 5/17/2011). Also just registered with your forum too.

Nope six updater doesn't have v2.075. that version is for testers only. If you are registered on pracs.info, go to the request access forum (something like that). I'm not sure if Wld is accepting more testers or what's going on.

Been playing around with V2.075 in my spare time, bug-hunting and the like. Gotta say, Wld, this mod just gets better and better. Your patience will be rewarded greatly, folks, don't doubt that for a second!

I'm actually thinking of breaking my self-imposed ban on MP play either tonight or tomorrow as a result- any other TFL folks gonna be on the testing server around... now? Or, yanno, roughly 9:00-10:0 PM pacific time? I'd love to accidentally crash helicopters into- er... conduct meaningful testing of the addons with you.

It's funny you should say that. PRACS testing has been recently on a modified Domination with the players as RACS. Meantime I've been working on modifying a Two Team Domination fort tvt action.

My next project is to move the mission to Chernarus and have RACS as the enemy AI. One thing's for sure, they'll be a more formidable enemy than the taki insurgents.

Funny, and here I thought we had been playing the same Domi match on Friday. They seemed pretty formidable to me! :P

@Otherconversation- I wouldn't go so far as to say they could take over the world, per se; I mean, sure, there's a lot of equipment to choose from in this mod, but that's just because there's a full order of battle on display, with vehicles and equipment from many eras of service available. You have to remember that, realistically, the RACS probably wouldn't have every asset available at all times, and some of these vehicles, if I remember my fluff correctly, are probably only used in VERY small numbers, or as reserve units.

That being said, they're still a hell of a lot more formidable than the OLD RACS! There's only so far choco-chip camo and a vaguely spaniterranian feel can take you...

Yep. The equipment available in PRACS represents 30-40 years of military equipment. Most of the ORBAT comes from the mission makers themselves. If they want the RACS to be a USSR influenced nation, then have them use the Russian equipment over the European/American, and vice versa. The same goes with timelines, you can have PRACS fit in anywhere from 1960 to 2020 if you so desire. The mod provides the toolbox, the user chooses the tools.

Pretty sure you'll have to get CAA1 for that. There's no way to use Sahrani without all the A1 files.

Not so much......

CAA1 is available but we are working on something that runs the necessary arma1 files for sahrani as a mod for arma2..... no promises no guarantees... jsut some preliminary work. We have it in Arma2 but there are some bugs to get around yet.

Does CAA1 Sahrani have issues relating to vehicles not following/knowing how to drive on roads? I swear I saw that in a post once, not sure if it's true or not.

Well, for that you would need to edit the wrp, make a pew and substitute all Arma 1 roads for Arma 2 roads.

A lot of work!!!!

I have a half playable south Sahrani. But it depends on some heavily edited Arma 1 pbos.

I just want to say that we had an issue with one of our Malden Islands where no matter what we did, the AI would not acknowledge the road network. We eventually had to scrap it completely and start again. This issue was being looked at for years. I'm not saying that this is the same case, but after you've tried everything, if it doesn't work, it might mean that the island needs to be rebuilt.

Sahrani version of C-RAM.

Almost all of the aircraft have been re-armed with new ordnance form RKSL or Myke's missile box. Some loadouts have been changed and and reconfigured. I think you all will find them much more efficient and potent.

About Sahrani Island......Sekra had a concept in his head of how to run Sahrani in arma2 as a mod. Our plan was to provide you a list of necessary PBOs the end user would need to copy form thier arma1 directory into the mod folder in conjunction with our custom config and small addon PBO to get the Island functional. In preliminary tests it worked well but the issue with the roads and several other rpt errors. If we can find a way around them then development will continue.

till next time.....
