The Unsung Vietnam War Mod V 2.6 Release

Recommended Posts

This time around as Egg said no.. However we hope to expand the fleet further to include a thumper , heavy hog etc in A3

talking about A3 (aka Unsung 3.0), can we expect an expand of riverine craft to include monitors, rpc, pcf, aspb and so on to complete the arsenal along with the pbr ?

Hey Foestus, I do not have that skill as well. I am pretty sure, there are some models already made, somewhere. Find their authors and ask for permissions for conversions. Then learn how to convert and make configs. Easy, if you are smart enough it will take no more then a couple of months, a year in the worst case. Uncle Google will become your Master Yoda, seriously.

Thanks for the info guys. I thought it would be easy to remove the rocket pods and M134 from the Gunship model to create the unarmed one (no need of a new model from scratch), that´s why I asked. Anyway I´m very happy with the choppers, for sure

from what i understand unbinning a huey and repacking it with the guns removed can be up to a weeks full time work debugging the debin.

we're wrapping up the mod for 2.6 at the moment so new ideas/requests may be pushed to Arma 3 idc.

Correct. Doable for A3? Yes. Doable for 2.6? Not this late in the game. Just doing the model is one thing but adding it to all the missions, groups, etc. is another time consuming process.

he really likes to ask questions - I don't mind answering the first few

p.s. I've also ordered Flight of the Intruder as loads of the guys go on about it and i never saw it

testing tonight: Evolution on Ia Drang valley

crashes with view distance above say 3000m but otherwise ok and the valley itself looks a scary prospect (zones 4-7 are in there gulp)
