Project RACS

[[evo] dan 79]

I love this mod by the way. I would like to say thank you for creating such as richly equiped Orbat that is closer to the Takistani forces force strength wise then the massive overmatching of the US forces. I have been having a lot of fun playing and making some SP missions with a loosely connected story on Duala based around the RACS liberating the Island.

I haven't played it yet in multiplayer but I would like to so can someone tell me what to filter as I tried the recommended filters on the website and it didn't come up with anything (same goes for filtering GITS).

Project RACS is by far the best addon for ArmA yet, and I've played pretty much all of them so that's saying something. Though sadly I had to recently uninstall it because I'm not sure if it is compatible with COWarMod which I'm going to try tonight.

Nothing like playing Domination or Evolution, moving in to finally take out the radio tower, then suddenly look up to see an SU-22 killing us all. Mmm... sweet death.

Can you do PRACS IL-76 for the next version

Probably not.

RSAF transport is western based C-130s.

Very nice :) , im currently using Pracs,FAC,CDF and NAF as the green sea defense council and patrolling the borders, *offtopic* im surprised you guys didnt end up using the HK21 in your mod.

Great lookin' fighters :)

Any plans of upgrading the Sahrani Navy with some of these F/A-18's too? Would be great to see some more hardware for both Navy and Marines I reckon ;)

Fantastic work as always guys!!!

Eddie and LOBO from the FFAA (Spanish Armed Forces Mod) get along very well. A Galicia class LPD for the Sahrani navy would be a great adition

That would be great!

FFAA mod also have a SH-3 Sea King. Would also be a great addition to the Sahrani Navy. They need some more ASW and maritime SAR capabilities ;)

[wld427 1705]

There will not be much of a blue water navy for PRACS...... the Sekra class boat and STRB90 are the core of the ships, possibly a slightly larger vessel than the sekra in the future. The problem is Arma engine absolutely does not like large seagoing vessels and its not worth the effort in my opinion to make it happen. Besides the ships only function like a giant car or a static object..... not much fun there.

The navy and marines both have liveries of the F-18.

No sea king. We have SA-330 Puma. SOCAT may return.

Glad to hear that they both get some more airsupport :D

Pity about the Sea King, but glad the SOCAT may make a comeback. It has been sorely missed. ;)

Not gonna lie would be sick to see the A6 intruder.

While awesome to have in-game, the A-6 was one of the few cold-war era aircraft that was never exported. A phenomenal aircraft with fantastic capabilities, but they're gone now. There's still a bunch sitting in mothballs, but I wouldn't plan on seeing them anywhere outside of Tucson or a museum.

[stupidwhitekid75 11]

Sea King would indeed be nice to see, too bad.

wld427, do you think that you could include a forward observer type module to work with your artillery pieces? I tested Blake's AI FO module out with some of your artillery pieces and some of them worked, others did not.

[wld427 1705]

Happy 100th Eddie! :)

Thanks mate! i didn't even notice till you said something!

[pkzbad 1]

Would it be correct to assume that an updated version of the Taki Extension will be released in the future based on pics of the F-5?

Because I would really like to see a decent air to air interceptor in the Taki Air Force. :)

To make all weapon types to allways work:Make a module that Allways checks what is on the maps and adds the correct modules needed.

It will look cool if you can use a Free Version of a F-18 from Flight Simulator and change it to fit in Arma series.

They come with things like working Emergency Jettison of drop tanks ,fuel dump,Ejector Seats that work, and a Dashboard with workin instrument

withn their in Nav outfit .You don`t need to do much to make it work in ArmaWorld.

Even bombs and other stuff from Combat flight Simulator.

Just use the Free ones.They are much better when it comes to flight dynamics too,they have their own .Air files and are easy to modify on the fly.

Someone wanted a A6 Intruder bomber? There is one ready to modify instantly ,if you want it.....just download

and make it work--right out of the box....

I came to think of something .If you want to make a big war in the air or have a lot of things going on in the Sky

you might consider using Viritual Airlines.

It has a small Plug-in Program that is used to run a Viritual Airline on a timer that fills the skies with AI planes that has no framerate impact what so ever.Perfect for the game.

Arma and the flight sim games are very very different. NONE of the code transfers over, and most of the models are not in useable formats. Plus the original makers are extremely difficult to get in touch with for permissions. The models are able to be "converted" via several dubios programs, but the poly count usually requires alot of shaving and the use of proxies for normal bits.

Sea King would indeed be nice to see, too bad.

The artillery is getting overhauled right now and a couple new pieces being added. all of my addons use the standard BIS artillery computer. Not sure what i would need to do to make it compatible with a 3rd party addon simply cause i dont worry about that......

[stupidwhitekid75 11]

The Artillery FO Module is simply a module that allows the AI to use artillery pieces on their own. You sync the module with with the artillery gun and an AI unit. The AI unit acts as a spotter, and when he sees an enemy he calls in a strike.

I was just asking if you could include or make a module like that to use with your artillery pieces. For example, the Invasion 1944 mod make one for their artillery pieces to use in game. It just makes missions more interesting, that's all. No big deal if you can't/don't want to.

All of my guns are made to work with the stock artillery module, although i wright my own tables for accurate impact distance calculations. If it works with the stock guns then it should work on mine. Could you please post a list of the guns it works on and the ones it does not? if so i can take a look into it once i dig into that pack, i am certain its only an inheritance issue....

[stupidwhitekid75 11]

I'll get back to you with it within the next day or so when I get a chance to test it out. Thanks for looking into it man :)

No sea king. We have SA-330 Puma. SOCAT may return.

I was thinking maybe it would be a good idea to add the Super Puma or Cougar to the Sahrani navy also, since they might be more suited towards ASW and maritime SAR. If not, I see the Romanians have made a naval variant of the SOCAT which could easily fit this role too.

Might also be a good idea to have a maritime patrol aircraft too, since the navy needs to be able to patrol the waters around Sahrani. Ideally a P-3 Orion or something similar, although a naval variant of the OV-1 Mohawk with torpedoes could work too :)

The Sahrani army is well covered when it comes to troops, vehicles and aircraft. Wouldn't mind seeing an ambulance version of the Pinz though. Alternatively a RACS reskin of either the ACR landrover ambulance or HMMWV ambulance. Can't drag that M113 everywhere.. ;)

The RSAF has an excellent selection of aircraft. I was thinking that they might need to boost up the base security detachment with some vehicles. Maybe some sort of light armed vehicle like a RSAF variant of the LAV-150 or something similar? And maybe a RSAF landrover/Pinz/HMMWV to move around in and some sort of ambulance there too? Some sort of CSAR variant of the Puma (with 2 gunners) or Huey would also be a great addition to their already well equipped air wing :)

The Marines have a great selection of rotary aircraft and their fixed wing capabilities will definitely improve with the F/A-18. Wouldn't mind seeing a gunship for them. Maybe a marine variant of the Cobra or SOCAT? Also the marines could use some more vehicles, especially amphibious. A variant of the AAV-5 or AAV-7 series of vehicles maybe. A marine reskin of the BIS AAVP-7A1 would definitely work too. They could also do with some more light armored vehicles and some support vehicles (ambulance, HQ vehicle, trucks). Maybe some more variants of the HMMWV or some sort of FAV (like the MG variant of the BIS Landrover or something similar).

Just throwing out some ideas that happened to pop in my head here and appreciate your hard work ;) PRACS is my all time favourite mod both in ARMA and ARMAII, due to the diversity of vehicles and well thought out ORBAT. I'm looking forward to your future release whatever you decide :D
