Christian.1987's Mp7 ported to A3

[Phantom 11]

@Corporal_Lib

Thanks for this information... But we have also messages about some FHQ optics... !! :(

@GVSE

Thought the problem was clear... sorry for my mention !! My hole clan have the same issues, if they start the game with the 2.3.1 version. We have several messages about missing entrys and we are NOT using FHQ... we want the naked gun !! :)

Warning Message: No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons.R3F_AIMPOINT'.

This and many more messages, see the snipet of RPT, are following... this issues are full reproducable by all of my teammates at every time the game or dedicated is started, so you must repro this by yourself !! If you can't, give me a sign, i collect the RPTs of my mates and my own !! I'm glad, if i can help...

1. The dms scope error messages are unavoidable until BIS pushes the scope from the dev branch to the main branch. Either that or you switch to the dev branch.

2. Most other error messages should be eliminated by moving c1987_mp7_c_fhq_r3f_rds_acc.pbo or any other OPTIONAL pbos (the list of these is in the first post here) away from the addons folder.

Warning Message: No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons.R3F_AIMPOINT'.

---It's obviously related to the R3F weapons pack, if you load it with the R3F weapons pack, the warning message could be solved.

So my suggestion is just set naked gun(with ironsights) in config.cpp, but not those attachment. ArmA3 provides us good method of assemble our own attachments, you don't pre-set all kinds of attachments for us.

confirm...

Edit : @ gvse : will delete these files, but it is not possible to checkin optional pbos another way ?? thought, most peoples aren't using FHQ... let the people who using FHQ pull in the wanted PBOs !! :)

If i dont said before, i like this gun and be very glad about this port !! Thanks for your works... :)

@ Corporal_Lib

Have you informed Kiory of the problem and asked if he has any solutions? I think it's a bit unreasonable to ask me to fix problems caused by changes to other addons.

Sorry to bother you, GVsE, but the incompactibility only happens due to your config, Kiory updated his kio_susat (and now it is bundled inside kio_L85a2.pbo) but your config still relates to the old optic, I just thought you would update your config, just like you did when IanSky updated his pack... but no need to hassle, next thursday BIS is going to change it all, and in the meantime I´ve reverted to old L85A2 so everything works, but more people may complain of this, I was just giving a headstart... (sorry if I gave you a headache, instead) =)

Cheers

I dont have the new version of Kiory's rifle yet, but according to the info posted at his thread the classname for the scope has not changed, i.e. it's still "kio_susat" and my optional config references exactly that name.

If you want this resolved you're gonna have to give me more details, please.

Just did it -> http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?167194-L85A2-Release&p=2542789&viewfull=1#post2542789 , let us see what info he´ll tell us, thanks for your patience, this messy system gives everybody the creeps! =)

PS: I didn´t asked him this in advance cus I was afraid he´d push back the problem stating that you should mingle with it, since it is your config, but maybe it´s just a silly assumptiom :o

Yeah but don't expect mods will magically start working together over night once new patch is out. The new config system has been available in Dev branch for some time but yet nobody started using it, not even mods that require Dev branch like this one.

[corporal_lib[br] 396]

Yeah, I guess so, but it seemed it would be easier to fix such incompactibilities... your ASDG may help a lot if all modders follow your system! I´ll help you spread the word, thanks for your efforts, Robalo! =)

[kgino1045 12]

Why the all configs and related with FHQ's Accessories make unattachable to MK18 mod

It's just not fair :(

[corporal_lib[br] 396]

Kgino1045, are you using the latest Kiory´s L85A2? Switch back to the old, as it makes FHQ unattachable in Mp9/7 Alex_vestin weapons and MK18 =P

[NordKindchen 12]

Very nice high quality weapon model!=)

However I have one issue with this weapon:

When you aim down sights (which you will do 80 % of the time) The textures around the scope are kind of low res

Because this is the area you will allways have your eyes on it is worth considering an update here.

Thanks for the great addon!

Best regards

[gvse 10]

yeah, I know about this, and I have already responded here. nothing I am able to do about it :(

[NordKindchen 12]

Help me understand this: All you need to do as far as I am concerned is up the resolution of the texture and rework some small parts.

Why is this not possible? You write that you have reworked some small parts of the texture so you seem to have access to it.

Best regards!

[HorbeySpector 164]

I use the mp7 all the time! :) could you please make an aor1/aor2 variant?

regards

[gvse 10]

All you need to do as far as I am concerned

Be my guest. Ill send you the texture and you can work on it in your free time. Seriously, if you can improve it, ill be glad to implement your changes in an update.

Not likely in the near future. :(

[WastedMike 11]

This is a excellent port over for a gun mod, actually one of the best one in all of Arma 3 and I have played and tested mods since day one. For the next update i wound like to see any of the primary weapon versions to be used as a secondary weapon.

Me too, I use the MP7 a lot! =)

Actually I contacted Robalo yesterday and asked him for help with it, and he kindly agreed, so yeah, an update will be released at some stage.

The addon is in "maintenance mode" so do not expect any extra features. I will keep you guys posted as soon as the new version is ready.

I should have my new MP7A1 ammo values ready for release in a few days, if interested let me know....

The MP7 is great as it is, null problem if the patch is just to fix BIS messing with sounds... and Spartan´s ballistics rock, please, consider adding his values (with the help of Robalo, of course) GvsE!!!!

cheers!

[Spartan0536 189]

Just a heads up, if GvsE goes with my ballistics code, it is 99% accurate to the RUAG ammotec rounds, this means that the MAXIMUM effective range will be 150 meters, anything past that and you are lucky to get a kill, the bullets have a very high drag function! However the MP7 under 125 meters is very deadly.

[gvse 10]

Guys,

thanks to Robalo, we have a new config that does two things:

1. makes the sounds compatible with the dev branch and the upcoming stable patch.

2. makes the mod compatible with asdg joint rails

how to install:

delete your old configs but keep the weapon pbo ("c1987_mp7.pbo")! place the unrared c1987_mp7_c.pbo in the addons folder.

Signed version will be released and available from first post once bis releases the update to stable branch.
