Project 82 The Falklands/Malvinas war mod Work In Progress - Pics

[helskga 10]

That Mirage model is looking brilliant, I can't wait to blow it to pieces with my Harrier! :D

[GO_AIRBORNE 39]

Just a question, but are you planning to add in the SAS/SBS observer teams that directed a majority of the indirect fire-support on the Argentinian forces? (This is probably an over asked question) Also, you should add a pack model with the British flag then someone could make a gametype where the Para race the Marines to put up the flag in Port Stanley. :p

[chrisb 196]

Its certainly a project I'm looking forward to seeing released.

Hope all going well with it.:)

[tom.tucka 75]

are you guys also creating the Falklands islands as well and if so any idea about a release or have they been released

[Stagler 39]

I would say as a base for what this mod should strive for to include in the first release the island and both sides infantry and small arms. Then built upon it. The infantry are nearly done at the moment I think. They probably need a proper compile.

[miraoister 1]

I would like to contribute somehow to this mod, my current PC is a bit out of date, maybe with voice acting...

I'm English, but I can do alot of regional voices, I've done a bit of acting/standup comedy before

please PM me if your interested

[connorwarman 60]

Looks great, keep up the good work.

[mistyronin 1181]

Would be awesome if you finally release it for A3

[cimalex 3]

Who knows mate, actually the mod developing is proceeding slow, but Collonel Stagler gave us a help with a beta version of argentine troops using baiscally CWR2 weapons.

I will upload some screenies asap.

[Stagler 39]

To add to what Cimalex said.

I have made Argentinian troops for this, and I intend to create a P82 weapons pack using the FALs from my UK and the NL packs to equip them. As I understand this wont be dependant upon CWR2.

[dimitri_harkov 10]

That's good news!

Looking forward to it :)

Ah! The blessed support of the colonel! Another good reason to anticipate the Falklands mod.

[chrisb 196]

Really looking forward to this..:)

[domokun 515]

I too am really excited about this mod.

If there is anything else that I can do to help its progress then please let me know.

Provided we have their blessing, what's wrong with using CWR2 weapons?

Likewise has anyone considered Vilas' stuff? 'Cos he seems a decent chap and his work is top-notch.

[Stagler 39]

Don't worry domokun. It will use both vilas and cwr2 weapon models that we have access to provided to me by Alex or made by myself and Sander, but it wont be dependant upon either cwr2 or p85. Project 82 will be self contained.

[mr pedersen 41]

My suggestion is that you stop all work for Arma 2 and start working to get this working into Arma 3 insted.

Players have moved on to A3.

Hi Gents,

here are some pics of argentine troops beta stage from Colonel Stagler showing P82 weapons pack:

Some argentine infantry troopies trying to make friendhip with kelpers in the islands:

Then argentine Cab601 commandos with Instalaza super bazooka:

Argentine navy/marines commandos during April 2 invasion of Port Stanley:

Argentine troops waiting british landings at dawn:

Finally argentine infantry patrolling Port Stanley streets:

Please note that argentine troops are in alpha stage, they need a new US M-1 helmet, but suit camo pattern and webbings are very realistic and reflects the equipment of that era.

According Clonel Stagler, with the new P82 weapons pack, our units will not be dependant upon either cwr2 or p85.

With P82 weapons pack we can see FN-FAL rifle series, FN-MAG, M3 grease gun, Blowpipe missile (for the first time in ArmA 2!) Instalaza super bazooka etc...

Next release of the weappns pack might have Mauser sniping rifle, and FN-MAG mounted on tripod.

Next step for Colonel will be making an alpha pack of british troops, that in my opinion is quite 90% done, using the same P3d winter soldiers model, and commonality in equipment and weapons.

Sorry guys:

Here the first correct pic.

With Cazadores de Monte team we have progress with the Mirage3EA and the Mirage5(Nesher/Dagger) is still in alpha

the arma3 port could wait until we have more tools and tutorials, with CDM team we have made some test, but the ARMA3 modeling and texture quality standars are high, the ARMA2 engineis more balanced between texture and model, in arma3 the model needs to be great otherwise it would look bad

Col Stag: sound decision mate given limited resources

Cimalex, foxtrop1 & co: my suggestion is that you continue your work for Arma 2 and finish this.

Players have moved on to A3 but many have stayed.

Once the shine has worn off A3 many more will realise that it will be many months, if not years before A3 reaches maturity in terms of code, units and mods.

Don't believe me? Just look at Arma 2.

Still don't believe me? Look at Arma 1.

Right now Arma 2 is living some of its best years with the recent releases of mods such as Unsung, CSLA, AH-64D, CWR2, Eurofighter, OFRP and Invasion 44.

Missions and campaigns are also richer than ever, e.g. the Memory, Real-World Operations, Op Wayne Grey, 100 Days, etc.

Some of the finest maps ever produced too: Caribou, FATA, Fapovo, etc.

[Stagler 39]

Thanks domokun.

Im sorry but Im not working on content for that piece of crap.

That's my only and final word.

I will put all the effort I can into P82 ARMA 2, but im not touching A3.

[cimalex 3]

Hi domokun,

in fact I realise that ArmA 2 have still a lot of "charme" and potentiality, I/We want to continue play it and develop what I/We can...

Now it's up to the community boys to give that help we need, according for what they can do.

The idea is good, the work to do is a lot.

Thanks for supporting.

[chrisb 196]

Fully agree with Domokun.

Arma 2 is simply better, so I’m really glad your progressing this along and staying with Arma2.

Great news.:)

[goose4291 11]

Thing is Stagler, the units look good and will be well appreciated when this comes out. The only thing updating it to ArmA 3 will benefit your mod is that the map sizes will be bigger, allowing for a more realistic looking island. However, as you've already touched on, ArmA 3 is yet to mature to that stage.

Are you intending on doing any of the UK Task force ships?

Im sorry Goose.

It seems the community is divided about ARMA 3, however I know where I stand.

All my work will be available to anybody who wants to port it over to ARMA 3, however I will not be doing so, at all.

I do have models for most of the ships thanks to Alex but as with all things, they require much work.

[goose4291 11]

Stagler, I think you misunderstand me. What I'm saying is your decision to stay with ArmA 2 is (in my opinion) a good one.

Reference the ships: Are they going to be static models, or will they be able to move like the Progetta Flotta/Pedagne Mods Italian ships?
