Canadian Armed Forces Modification ARMA III

Recommended Posts

Hi Ohally,

"Randomization scripts will now detect players and stop randomization."

Just for clarification, randomization is stopped for "player" detected but not "playable"? More specifically in MP if a person is controlling an avatar then there is no randomization but if the AI is controlling a "playable" avatar then there is randomization?

I hope that made sense.

thanks

Scenario 1:

Mission with 8 playable slots, AI Enabled

All "AI" occupied slots when the mission launches will randomize appearance, all player occupied slots will be exempt

If a player joins in progress, the init for the unit is already executed, thus randomization has already taken place.

Scenario 2:

Co-op Mission with 8 playable slots, AI Disabled

Even after mission is launched as players join they will be exempt from randomization.

Does that clarify?

In update notes, I've made a script for the helicopters, it will now detect gunner positions and apply door gunner kits, such as dust masks and different vests.

Well quick update:

Randomization scripts will now detect players and stop randomization.

M2 Carl Gustav has been overhauled, new optic and is better zeroed (within 5m)

M72 and 84mm Rockets now facing the correct way.

Still trying to fix the wheel error that's been reported (and experienced by me) ****FIXED****!!!

May be adding a few new toys in the very near future, I'll keep you all posted.

Outstanding! Thank you very much! :)

I haven't read the whole thread (oof, 53 pages) to see if this has been covered already, but I'm having issues getting my AI units to disembark from the CH147 Base. Most will get hung up near the bay door, but eventually get out with some coaxing. The last two units, however, appear get stuck while trying to exit via the right gunner door. Has anyone run into this before? Is AI/SP outside the scope of this mod?

*Edit: stuck AI behaviour appears to not be limited to disembarking via the right gunner aperture, seems to happen to both sides.

I talked to ARJay, I will be making an ALIVE mission using CAF for them to put up on their site. It will also be hosted publically on at least one server. Stand by for more.

P.S. 1.7 is uploading now:

Changes:

Fixed all known issues from 1.5

M2 Carl Gustav and M72 A6 Rockets no longer fly sideways

New 3 X Scope (for 84) optics

Randomization no longer executes on players

CH-146 and CH-147F doors gunners now get proper helmets

Dispersion values and rates of fire tweaked on all weapons to more accurate to real life standards

Leopard C2 (circa 2035) added + groups

CH-147F seating no staggers properly, unknown if AI in/out is fixed yet

And maybe some stuff i forgot

---------- Post added at 03:16 ---------- Previous post was at 02:30 ----------

Hi,

New since CAF 1.7 installed.

It seems that the 84 Gunner causes the game to crash not long after initializing.

I remove the 84 Gunner and everything is fine, add the Gunner and game crashes.

Hi,

I'm now getting frequent game crashes when I pick up the Carl - G from a crate and then switch to 3rd person view. If I'm in 3rd person view and then pick it up I don't seem to get the crash. I've had about 8 such crashes last night testing it out. Never had a Arma 3 crash before. Very bizarre. Only message I'm getting is that the game has stopped responding.

I am aware of this issue. For now you must ensure you pick up the launcher before the ammo. It's an issue with the game "autoloading" the launcher. I think it has to do with the modelSpecial portions for the magazines. Actively trying to fix.

well first google Leopard C2

Then look at the pictures compared to the ARMA 3 version. That's the most obvious differences.

The reason I call it (circa 2035) is because it is more a place holder then anything as our current Leopard C2s do not and likely never will have an RWS system, or the futuristic armour placed on the ARMA 3 ones.

I've been following this mod since Arma 2. Really appreciate all the effort put forth, it's beyond cool to play ones own home country and in ALiVE no less.

Thanks!
