UCE made some great skins but too bad he decided to stop making addons

Actually I've already started using some British unit addons that simulates U.N. peacekeeping force where they are using a "borrowed" Dutch APC (the Patria).   <span id='postcolor'>

Hey Miles, the patria would fit perfectly in your upcoming black hawk down mission. Hope you get that out soon. I havent seen much activity on your website latley.

I've also seen the flash from the M2 turn from white to blue. It's odd that whoever beta tested it didn't catch that.

Is the M2 the only type machine gun mounted on the patria? I was hoping the'd mount something a little diferent that the usual on there.

Anyway It's a great addon, keep up the good work.

I am making a finnish skin for it but i dunno if ill ever release it, atleast i gotta ask for permission of the author first..

I'd like it if the gunner could turn in and out, he's kinda vunerable sitting up there.

[FW200 0]

Neh thats cool. take KEG's AK 107/103 and lie in the bushes and kill the gunner.

[Scorpio 0]

well i tried taking out the Patra with a blackop (by killing the gunner and driver) and it seems the gunner i very vulnerable to a shot, and when i try shooting the driver the window is kind of armoured and i cannot shoot him.

So when he was retreating i shot at the tyres and they didnt pop.

Well its nice to see a new APC ingame and overall the model is good, but i think these bugs make the vehicle too strong. And also, the textures are a bit patchy, some parts dark, some light, different colours,ect. and the back needs to be sharpened more, it looks very blurry.

a 5.56 or a 9mm bullet can't pass through the windows of this type of armored vehicles

if the wheels are the same kind of wheels as on the french VAB , then it's almost impossible to pierce them with any caliber under 7.62 mm including 9mm para , except if you use penetration rounds

Sorry not possible, there the game engine sets us limitations.

What do you think APC stands for? American Pie Cake?.....

(no offense)

No it stands for Armored Personal Carrier, mention the word "Armored" in it.

Don't you think that a APC would be pretty useless if every little bullet you fire from you handgun would kill the whole vehicle?

The XA-188 is bulletproof up to 14,7mm (even if there is no gun with that caliber). The tires are kevlar protected. It is the version with heavy armor, you know, that is also why it has no propellers on its rear, because it cannot swim due to the heavier armor.

I hope I cleared here some missunderstandings out.

well ok, ill take note of the word ARMOURED. But i was not referring only to an MP5 or any other hand gun, but also to a weapon with more penetrative rounds.

Ok i rest my case.

wrong , the russians use a gun of this caliber (on real life brdm 2 for exemple)

It's an Armored Personnel Carrier. Hmm, I wonder where I saw you before.

[Paratrooper 0]

I like the new version. Will you make one with Finnish markings, and manned by UCE's Finnish troops? That would be exellent.

[N.o.R.S.u 0]

Looks good , but you should add the "SISU" label to the side, the one which is already in the first release.

[Blake 0]

Your new textures look much better. Keep it up. But as norsu said there should probably be manufacturers insignia on the side.
