Looks great, I look forwards to the mod.

[Aaron Kane 0]

That looks VERY good! Keep up the good work!

Looks nice! Interesting how you have it as a rifle instead of a regular rocket...but from the pic it seems to work well. How many rounds will he carry? You might want to include a pistol of some sort (one of the ones already in Resistance) just as a backup weapon. You can add that in the script but it would be good if he had that secondary weapon.

Any idea when this addon will be available for download. It's kinda hard to comment more on it until we've played it and tested it out.

[Aculaud 0]

[Major Fubar 0]

Looks nice, but has anyone ever heard of this weapon?

I tried a web search and FAS, but no luck.

Found this on it look under 90mm Recoilles Rifle

[Vepr 0]

What thaa.. What kind of a weapon is that?

[Major Fubar 0]

Recoilless rifles were predecessors to modern rocket launchers. The projectiles have no onboard fuel...in effect, it is a cannon to be used by 1 man. To reduce recoil they use 2 main types of systems: either displacing a solid mass of equal weight to the projectile out the back of the gun, or by venting gasses out the back.

Not many countries use them any more, mainly replaced by LAWs etc., but still in use in many guerilla units and thrid world armies.

I hope you release a version for the resistance side, it would suit them.

[B@ZOOkA 0]

when you carry it on the back will it be that small its on your pic?

[catkuba 0]

to Paratrooper:

The finished model has been made for Resistance

to B@ZOOkA:

As we all know OFP works with solid models. I mean that the model cant be animated and as you say , in real life , the launcher is shorter when someone transport it, and its opened to fire. This cant be done in OFP

You`re right in your observation Major Fubar , this "old crap" uses the "gas ventilation" system. I must say i have been part of the Argentinian Army and a lot years ago actually i was able to fire it more than once. Also i should say that this rocket launcher was the standar weapon of the minimal unit in the army in 1982. Now , our country ( a 3rd world one ) has replaced these for new equipment , all provided by the USA

Salute!

Unfortunatelly this country is experimenting some sort of decadence process and will be this way for a long time unless we its habitants awake and take control of the situation. But there`re persons (inluding myself) who still believe in this country and will do anything that`s necesary to revert the situation. Here`s a frase that will synthesize my thoughts

"When our fatherland is at risk , everything is allowed ...except , letting it perish"

Salute!
