Harnu 0 Posted July 22, 2002 37. Only 1 man can speak on the radio at a time. If you tell a gunner to target, then notice other tanks, you MUST report them before the gunner is told to fire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sn1per 0 Posted July 22, 2002 39. When creating addons for an infantry sim be sure to create lots of jets and maybe some sports cars. No tracked/wheeled/armored/really useful stuff at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aculaud 0 Posted July 23, 2002 Kinda funny, from a completely morbid point of view. I could just see the bradleys cruising by with the commanders thinking "Yeah, we wont kill you either, we're just gonna blind yer ass!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only thing I like as much as playing around with close air support in the mission editor is stealing armor in the campaign missions. I was just so thrilled the first time I discovered that you could do that in the 1985 capaign. i.e. "Wake Up Call." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aculaud 0 Posted July 24, 2002 Well i dont blame you. I was thrilled beyond belief that the Laser Guided Bomb system got fixed finally Iv tested that a couple different ways, and it seems to work perfect every time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
USSoldier11B 0 Posted July 24, 2002 Yeah, I like to set up enemy motor pools and then blow them to hell. If you line them up right 1 bomb will take out 8-10 tanks and some of them will fly quite a distance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDRZulu 0 Posted July 24, 2002 Kinda offtopic but if you place satchels in the right spot under vehicles you can make them fly wherever you want, I am an OFP pyrotechnician. You can even do this to the LST but it wont move very far, btw if you ever want to get rid of a LST and you have a helicopter handy you can scoop it up from the side and carry it away as if it weighed 2 lbs. And has anyone been able to do a front or back flip on the motorcycle yet I really need to be able to do this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aculaud 0 Posted July 24, 2002 USsoldier11B: Yeah, i once did a test, and one LGB can take out up to 20 Abrams's with one strike. Granted they were all very close together, but still.... MDRZulu: I have ALMOST done a front flip on a motorcycle. I think you have to jump off a large cliff, and you have to be coming at it from a very steap downgrade.

MDRZulu 0 Posted July 24, 2002 nah that wont do it I used to be able to do it in jeeps on malden and what I did was find a spot that had a big bump or change in the terrain right before a steep hill and the ofp engine would make it flip out. The terrain i mean would look something like this \ Â \__ \ \ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
