thedog88 4 Posted November 17, 2012 (edited) Current Version: 1.2 DESCRIPTION =========== ARP is simply designed to give mission makers more options to make missions more immersive. ARP adds 150+ items (more each update) that can be added to inventories as needed to add a last touch to missions. For example this could be used to add more common items to civilians so that, when searched, the player finds more common and realistic items on them. Instead of finding a compass, map and radio you might find a lighter, candy and a newspaper. Want to give your soldiers the last touch towards realism? Throw some extra socks, underwear and t shirts into your rucksack in case the mission takes longer. Don't forget your baby wipes, i know i used them in the field a lot when showers were not an option :P. Make sure you have an ID Card on you to get back onto base maybe? Or give an entire village a red color shemagh and give your target a white one to identify him. the possibilities are limited to your imagination, I'm just providing the tools. Again, ARP alone has no functions available so these are purely intended for sort of Role play at this time and only work in the inventory. When they are dropped on the ground they will look like small military bags. Maybe later down the road myself or somebody within the community will add functions, actions, or even entire modules that use this.

Spartan 163 0 Posted November 17, 2012 LOL! Such a small but cool idea. Next step make some of the items actually useful thru scripts would be cool. Thanks for making this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thedog88 4 Posted November 17, 2012 haha thank you. i wish i would know how to do all that, i will def. look into it, i would also like it so that when items are dropped on the ground they are actual models of the object, so you can tell whats laying there. imagine your mission is to search a village for suspicious items, players walk into a building and find a bunch of crap on the floor, on the table, on a shelf, and now must visually identify key items^^ just awesome. but yeah, ill try and see what i can do. first ill focus on more items so if you have ideas, send them my way :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zio sam 77 Posted November 17, 2012 Interesting addon! It's also curious that my community hosted a TvT campaign since 3 years that's called ARPC (Arma Role Playing Campaign) :) All this objects could turn out very usefull Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

krycek 349 Posted November 17, 2012 Awesome addon,was looking for something like this to use in my missions.Any chance you could add some gadgets like smartphones,tablets,laptops and more misc items like pack of cigs,cigar,soda pops or food cans(no beans:p )?? I tend to go a bit insane with adding detail in my missions so these will feed my insanity even further.:D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Freeborne 10 Posted November 18, 2012 Can we get a thumbnail gallery of all the objects please? Maybe a stupid question, but where do you find these items in the Editor? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thedog88 4 Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) go to empty>ammo>scroll all the way up there it is. ill look into the thumbnail gallery, its just going to be a minute until i get that done. i have to go back and fix a few items and also ill most likely go back and edit any items with brand names, i.e. skittles would no longer be called skittles. edit: here is a really quick gallery, just a screenshot from my folder http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/2894/galleryil.jpg Edited November 18, 2012 by Thedog88 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krycek 349 Posted November 18, 2012 Great additions,but it's starting to get difficult what to pack with so many choices.:p The new gadgets will come in handy in infiltrate,bug or retrieve missions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoffinator 1 Posted November 19, 2012 I highly recommend that you add an additional ACE version of this mod, it would be epic... For instance, you get tired from lugging around so much stuff, you could drink the thermos of coffee you brought along to slowly regain stamina? I dunno, but it would be so cool... If ace added nerves or something, cigarettes could calm you down... Well, HAVE FUN! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thedog88 4 Posted November 19, 2012 well its compatible with ace but doesnt do anything^^ ill add a thermos though :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spartan 163 0 Posted November 19, 2012 Can you add MRE packs and maybe other type of food drink items? That would fill the scavenger part. Some other things like gun parts and maybe engine parts for the mechanics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thedog88 4 Posted November 19, 2012 sure can man, only thing, im not going to add MRE's because glowbal is working on a food system that uses mre's and ration packs, he already has that stuff working in game too (GBL_Items) so im not going to take his thunder. i will however add more food and drink items to the list as well as weapon parts and engine parts. however the engine parts will be pretty small like maybe fan belts and other smaller items. im trying to refrain from putting items in primary slots for now so that people can carry standard loadouts without these items getting in the way. im hoping to push out an update by tomorrow morning, i will try to include some of the mentioned items. it will be my last update until january time frame because my computer will be shipped to my next duty station tomorrow.

Spartan 163 0 Posted November 19, 2012 Not a problem. Small engine parts are cool. cant see you running around with a V8 block on your back alone. Keep it up. This is turning out to be a fave mod for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thedog88 4 Posted November 19, 2012 i was thinking about that XD running with an engine block taking up your entire inventory would still be unrealistic, but yeah, should push this out by tomorrow morning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
