Oh yeah and some operation videos will be made soonKNOWN ISSUES1. Due to shotRocket not propagating fired event handler to all users, the Excalibur rounds will produce only local effects (sound and smoke).2. Sometimes the m109a6 starts shaking a little for no reason. Solution: get into driver's seat and move an inch. We are trying to locate the cause.3. Sometimes disengaging driver lock does not return the fuel.CREDITSSoul_AssassinNouberNouRexehukSpecial thanks to:LincksBallistic09wld427TankbusterHellfire257IronWardogWA LancerKassaredImpulse 9KrauseArmyGuyjackal_AzzwortLICENSECreative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs CC BY-NC-ND Edited June 30, 2011 by Soul_Assassin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cannonouscrash 12 Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) Nice one, Congrats on the release! because you didnt say first, I get to say 2nd! After a quick playtest and quicker read of the document. my rounds are no where near the grid entered, more than likely my own doing. But i didn encounter the fuel not returning after disengaging the driver lock. Another thing i found is that even though there is no fuel and the engine is off, moving the mouse still makes the tracks move in opposite directions from each other, aka spinning around. I know tracked vehicles can do this, But the bug is them moving at all when engine off/no fuel Great addon though, Im sure it will be well recieved within the community. Psssk, Whats next? :-P Edited June 21, 2011 by CannonousCrash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

noubernou 77 Posted June 22, 2011 We were planning to release with this including my NATO 6400 mil compass. If you are playing with this with out ACE I recommend you download it from my signature, as some of the mil inputs are done with the 6400 mil compass and not the 1982, somewhere in the iron curtain 6000 mil russian compass that the US decided to use in ArmA2. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlackDynamite 10 Posted June 22, 2011 Fantastic work guys! However, can you tell me why I will spontaneously combust at random times? (in FCS ect) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bullet purveyor 85 Posted June 22, 2011 Amazing work! A big thank you to those involved in this mod. Fantastic details in the model, the fire systems and even the manual/documentation. @BlackDynamite The manual says: "DO NOT chamber ammunition until immediately before firing. Ammunition left too long in a hot weapon may result in hazardous conditions. Fire or remove ammunition within 5 minutes of chambering." Maybe that's got something to do with it?

hellfire257 3 Posted June 22, 2011 Well done Gentleman, you've created a monster alright. I do recommend giving the manual a proper read. Rexehuk's one-liners are quite good! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rexehuk 16 Posted June 22, 2011 Regarding the FCS Although I think it is correct in the manual, please note the following when using the FCS and setting fuzing times. The AFCS will automatically calculate the optimial fusing time (TOF) which should be passed onto the gunner. There is no manual need to -time off the TOF value, although you can do if you wanted a different spread or something on DPICM, but this may make your round fall short somewhat. Things I suggest you all try... DPICM at night Illum at night WP at night (this is a must) Enjoy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
