EricJ Release thread

[EricJ 765]

I'll see about the L85.

As far as more alternate configs... I was looking at RHS for their AK mags as opposed to HLC. But in the short term no, I'm not doing anymore alternate configs due as once RH updates his shit I'm going to get rid of his config. I just don't have the care anymore to maintain thousands of entries, while similar is quite a lot to manage. I just honestly don't have the care to use magazines from every mod, and quite honestly wish JAM was back then it'd be simple, stupid rather than five million ammo versions to worry about.

Been trying the Open Tip Match Boat Tail and it's not killing off the CSAT or AAF targets as expeditiously as the normal 7.62 but I think that's just normal as headshots are good as always but torso shots require three compared to the two for 7.62. Even when adjusted (like my values are, I will post them on your topic Spartan0536) for twenty inches the .300 is "okay" but I think I'll add it anyway and see where it goes with people.

[warlord554 2065]

Ive never seen a baddie get back up from one 762 torso hit ;)

[EricJ 765]

:D

Yeah usually game-wise it's around the average of two shots and that's it... so I guess it's just not as potent as reg'lar 7.62.

I did however test drive (and thanks to 19 AAF participants) I can say the newer 5.56 values are still as great as they've always been. Some headshots were good (though values adjusted for the IAR's barrel) and on average took three solid shots and they were down, kaput. I think the difference I see is the actual velocity compared to the 5.56 versus the .300 Blackout. It's a good round but I don't feel game-wise it's a good combat round, for those times when you need to hammer out rounds because the enemy is rolling up on you and just doesn't deliver the oomph that the other rounds do. Granted I've always preferred the Mk318 SOST over the others, which should perform as good as you're used to.

Also I found a couple good quality A2 PEQ-15 models by themselves so those will be added as well to the mix as a couple more accessories. I'll probably add the grippod that's standard on Brit L85s and adjust the anim to match it.

[EricJ 765]

Finally managed to test the subsonic ammo and I do say that this is the honey of the .300 rounds. Did a test on Insurgency and was able to play "Urban Sniper" quite successfully as it didn't "announce" your presence like normal ammo does suppressed (found out the hard way too on that one) and also managed to get a few kills with it as well. Matter of fact I didn't alert the guy I didn't see at first but still got him. So yeah, the Subsonic ammo while less "powerful" works well and probably going to be a standard load compared to the normal ammo for suppressed sniper ops.

[gatordev 220]

...and quite honestly wish JAM was back then it'd be simple, stupid rather than five million ammo versions to worry about.

You can definitely see the community heading that way. I wish I was smarter on configs, as I'd try and start putting things together, but I think I have mental retardation when it comes to writing code. Reading, I can follow 60% of the time, but not writing.

BTW, I finally have my toys from the government, so if you need/want pics of a SOCOM Mini, RC, or 7.62 Mini (which is basically a RC), let me know.

[EricJ 765]

Sure man I'll probably be into the SOCOM one more than the line ones as doing the other Minis was fairly easy.

But yeah I think so far Spartan0536's ammo is "close" enough as his shit is still good. I've also been meaning to tweak the Ultimaxes since my formula to Spartan036's formula is working great to add/subtract values to get as realistic performance possible.

[EricJ 765]

Okay got the Ultimaxes ammunition tweaked specifically for those particular weapons. So the short barreled (13-inch) version has it's own values as well as the regular (20-inch) and thinking about redoing the mags for the Old 30-round version as well since it would be a good idea. More often than not the 20-inch versions use the appropriate entries (I think the closest the Singapore miltiary uses would be the M855A1 so I'll just go with that) for Spartan0536's ammo to through those barrels. So roughly tomorrow I'll get the update out and then... not sure, it's still the holiday season and then it's back to "work".

[acta13 10]

Hey Eric! Always thx for ur work :)

anyway dont have a Mind for make ACR rifle?

[EricJ 765]

I've actually imported a Masada ACR for a test for another project but I'm not sure to be honest with you. I think the "holiday" chill has taken effect on my mind. Enough to keep busy but overall not wanting to spend a whole lot of energy doing modding for now. Which is kinda why I did the .300 Blackout and nothing more heavy right now. Probably though, but I think the Specialist Military Arms topic by blazenchamber has an ACR or two though if my mind serves me correctly. But if I can find a reliable method of getting a hold of the guy on TurboSquid then I'll see about the Masada though as it works as it should and looks pretty decent also.

[EricJ 765]

Okay got a request for a GL version of the M4A1 (didn't think of it honestly, should have) and probably do one for the M4 as well. I'll probably slap a 203 but I can do a 320 with no anims on as well. I have a skin for DCS I want to knock out but it'll take me until this weekend (or less) to nix it. Then after the new year (2nd of Jan) will get back to this depending on where I'm at anyway but here's RC51:

RC51

- Added .300 AAC Blackout version of the Mk20 SSR and 3D model adjusted to reflect the shorter round for aesthetics (mainly magazine area).

- Adjusted Spartan0536's values per his updates on his topic.

- .300 AAC Blackout varieties are adjusted for the 20-inch barrel that the US Navy SOCCOM uses and as modeled on the weapon.

- Added BIS PEQ-15s, one Tan, one Black.

- Adjusted CAR-15 ballistic values based off Spartan0536's work.

- Tweaked Ultimax 100 bullets to reflect barrel lengths, again modified (at least for the 13-inch barrel) Spartan0536's values.

And as for the ACR... again I'll see what I can do on TurboSquid. Some of those people just don't give proper credentials for contacting or vague on permissions so it's a crapshoot on whose models I can use, but I'll see about it.

[sorophx 25]

sorry, haven't followed this mod for some time. is that M468 still in the pack? does it still use 5.56 ammo?

[EricJ 765]

It's available as a source model. Given that Spartan0536 did some work with it I may get off my fat ass and texture it, not sure still but it's there just not part of the list anymore for now.

[warlord554 2065]

Get off the comp soldier, its time to get hammered! Dont forget to pour one for our fallen brothers

happy new year

oh Kinda great news anyway.

hope u enjoy ur holiday.

Happy new year.

[EricJ 765]

Thanks and you too!

Lol was trying to find my topic and here it is.. I got a few more things to knock out and more than likely tomorrowish or Mondayish I can get to adding the GL versions of the M4s so that's not going to be too difficult. But again if things work well I can integrate the Masada into the pack as well. Though I will warn you (and realistically it doesn't make any difference) it is set to eject to the left by design, so no if it gets in then it's actually the way the model functions. But given you don't get burned by flying brass it's a good thing but overall just how its supposed to operate within that model.

[EricJ 765]

Okay... it's Monday and today is actually been just pretty nice for once. My head was relatively calm today so I've been socializing which is good... So... yeah. Okay next up is checking on the ACR if I can use it, and the two GL versions (M203) for the M4s. I saw a good picture of the M27 on Facebook today and snatched that so I'm going to try and do some texture edits to reflect that image that was on HK's official page.

[ice_age0815 37]

SOUNDS INTERESTING

what else do you have pland if you dont mind asking ?

[EricJ 765]

Not much else really, been kinda splitting this between DCS skin work so not having much of anything planned honestly.

---------- Post added at 20:22 ---------- Previous post was at 20:14 ----------

Some IAR stuff, adjusted the name on it and added the Smartphone square (if I understand that right) and initial magwell names right. Marines can you confirm its VA and not Butte MT that's on the side?

---------- Post added at 21:27 ---------- Previous post was at 20:22 ----------

I admit I've been lazy with the M203s back then and finally remembered to "remove" the bottom rail piece so I'll add that and also fill in the 3D mesh around it and add the part for the frame which slides onto the barrel itself.

---------- Post added at 22:13 ---------- Previous post was at 21:27 ----------

Okay did some research on the TurboSquid site and found this:

And here's the model I already imported into A3 (for a personal project):

Anyway I think I'm good to integrate it into the mod so yeah...

Some more 203 work:

Also alibi, lengthened the Magpul sights as well, feels more correct as well.

And a cheap mount for the rear of the M203:

When I see this M203 on a HK416 I wet my pants,Eric! Very sexy I have to say!And maybe you will do a AG36 version in the future?

[EricJ 765]

Erm.. that's an M4 not a HK416, this is an AG36 mounted on an HK416:

And this is the above Masada ACR model implemented in A3:

One of these days I'm gong to do a 12 incher instead of keeping the 10-inch versions as well, and I remember somebody asking for a 16 inch as well. I just need to get to that point, but with HK changing the design I may have to go with it.
