Expecting ACR in real soon!

[bagpiperguy 74]

Maybe a future update can include one of these, MSBS Radon? Just a suggestion. Looks like it may become the future rifle of the polish army??? I don't know wikipedia is not always right ;) Great update by the way, keep it up.

Couldn't agree more with you Eric. It is your mod so you do what you want. I appreciate the fact that you are prepared to consider suggestions and requests for items to be included in the mod and do act on those requests for the rest of us in the community. Thanks for your efforts!

Can't agree more,Eric is one of the best,he continuous add new stuffs and almost considered everyone's suggestions and requests.:)

I seam to have an issue with the new ACR. When I go to use it its stuck in safety on. When I press F it will not switch to semi or full auto. I noticed it was not in the patch notes. Is it not ready yet?

[jinougaf 11]

A quick test Eric,the ACR only have Semi,burst and Safe mode,no auto mode.Is that on purpose or an issue?

Issue, I re-looked at the config and it's setup for Burst.

No that's just me forgetting to paste the modes right on the configs.

I can think about it as I have some reference images for CoD that I found somewhere.

Okay just the configs fixed (about to go to bed so... yeah):

https://www.dropbox.com/s/9hzv7iftrc3fh1u/RC52_config_fix.7z?dl=0

- Fixes Masada fire mode (changed to Full Auto instead of Burst).

- Added necessary entries in the other configs, fixing the "Safety" only issue.

PWS, Foxhound please do not upload as I'll re-upload a fixed complete version tomorrow

[jinougaf 11]

Oh,then that all make sense then...well,I will still wait here for that ACR.And the UGL for M4 is Outstandingï¼

Nice thanks man! :D

Looking forward to trying the new update Eric great stuff!

Regarding sfx, In no way would I be offended if you did want to replace them in future. I created (some of) them for my own library inspired by the U100 mod pack itself, so none of it's wasted :). But one of the things I like about this mod is the fact that people offer ideas/sfx/models....some of them get used for release some don't it's the Boss's decision at the end of the day. I'll always support this mod as it has a good mixture of weapons systems. Bullshit over where's that ACR. :cool:

Hi, just an info, HK416/M320 UI picture doesn t show properly in UI (invertory, crate etc).

BTW great build Eric, I like the M4/203 combo and Masadas. ;)

[EricJ 759]

Cool I'm going to upload a more condensed version anyway later on when it uploads as I'm helping a guy out with English right now. After that I'll get those fixes in and re-upload.

Nah you put some good work into the sounds and it shows, so I'm happy with what you send me man :)

And yes I love JSRS but there's a fine line of worrying about too many configs. I manage three so that's enough (more than really) for me at the moment.

And thanks again Kari and Foxhound!

[bolo861 166]

Also something is not right with SCAR s Mk.20 SSR .300 BK flash animation. When you are not shooting it shows flash animation like you would be shooting. It looks quite funny.

Oh and Suggestion, there is already quite good 6.8 QD sound suppressor in Your pack, would be cool to pair it with new 6.8 SPC rifles (Masada 6.8 and SCARs).

That s all.

Regards.

[EricJ 759]

Yeah I'll look into it in a second... next version for the suppressor, lemme worry about fixing the issues first.

---------- Post added at 19:16 ---------- Previous post was at 18:34 ----------

Matter of fact check the QD as it's setup for the weapons already. Given that manufacturers today recommend 7.62 versions in reality (thanks Robalo) then it should go right on the weapons.

hey Eric love the acr 6.8. However during testing i found that the red dot is showing up funky in both of your acog-rmr optics. I don't remember it doing this before.

3d scope

2d Scope

Hopefully those help. Keep up the great work man.

[corporal_lib[br] 396]

Hey EricJ, are you planning on animating the ACR charging handle - to move like the SCAR handle does when firing - or this model doesn´t permit it? How about a camoflaged ACR version (or at least a black one) wink wink?

The texture of the rear BUIS is a little blurry, but it looks just like the vanilla MX sights, so why not replace it with the vanilla one?

Loving it! Keep it up, man!

Cheers!

You have to understand that I didn't do the mapping AT ALL for the gun, PVTMacyD did all that work and I imported it. I can probably do so but I'll see about it. I get really hesitant when I can't reliably directly contact that person about major modifications (such as retexturing and adding, removing stuff that changes the appearance of the original work) so I may just want to leave the subject alone for now until somehow I'm able to contact him or her so it is what it is and will be. While yes there's the Royalty Free license argument I'm just not going to hear/read it and not a valid argument in my mind. Animating the handles shouldn't be a problem as that doesn't involve any major modification and a simple animation if it actually does that in real life (I need to check on some videos).

As for the ACOG? The RMR is a red dot sight so while the brightness is adjustable game rendering allows it to be "bright" all of the time regardless of ambient light conditions. I did have an ACOG in Afghanistan and I really didn't like it at the time (given the location I should have) but I didn't fire my weapon enough to justify using it that much, so I kept the CCO instead. The reason I point this out is that I haven't used it as much as my FOs did (which I made sure did have) and so I'm of the understanding that the fiber strip on the scope itself collects the ambient light and therefore determines the brightness of the reticule of the weapon. So I left that issue alone and deal with it. So if I illuminate it like the red dots then it'd be wrong (really bright a night, etc.). And it's a shadowing issue so maybe if there's a way to illuminate it better then I'd like to know but if not then that's going to be it.

It's all good man, i was just making sure you were aware of it. Keep up the great work. I'm not sure how difficult it would be but, a integrated silencer on the scar-p would be pretty cool :) Also nice work on the 300 blackout ammo kinda growing on me :)

[gatordev 219]

Eric, when messing with your M249, I've noticed that the two sounds that play are very distinct. When you're firing in first person, it's almost like you're hearing two different guns in two different locations. Either sound is fine (I'm leaning towards the first sound), so the simple solution may be to just use one or the other sound for both firing sounds (rather than both). I understand what you were trying to do, but they're just so different, I find it really distracting.

I still absolutely love your L85 sound. I've adjusted the M4s that I use in my missions to use that sound and it's great!

Well yes... and no, the .300AAC subsonic is by far the best I've come across and it's only tweaked Spartan0536 ammo so the work is his, the tweaking is mine :D

As far as an integrated suppressor? Probably the hardest part is to figure out which suppressor to add to it, and configuring the sounds specifically for that version of the weapon shouldn't be much effort really.

Thanks but it was courtesy of LordJarhead so he gets all the credit brother :)

Looks like the non-jointmuzzles config works no more, as it always gives an error saying EricJ weapons need joint muzzles. Anyone having the same problem ?
