JackBender 10 Posted January 22, 2014 1st version of Australian Vietnam Forces, i have to tweak few things. Im open for feedback also!http://imageshack.com/a/img11/5585/ci1k.jpg (1169 kB) I assume that this represents Australian special forces ? I think that some kind of ERDL camo would be more accurate for these and if this is regular troops basic green military pattern would fit better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tyl3r99 41 Posted January 22, 2014 regardless valkyries is a must i dont think my first question was answered, regarding the AI and LOS thrugh the dense woodland. will Ai be effected like us? as UNSUNG didnt take this into account and just placed bushes that the AI didnt recognise as a bush etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alduric 10 Posted January 22, 2014 Jungles are not THAT hardcore as in unsung, but its still hard bush. AIs are optimized for this maps, and they works fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bruhmis 10 Posted January 22, 2014 Example? I have whole playlist atm :D well I could comprise a list, but you could potentially face legal troubles if you use copyrighted material without permission. however, there's a label called Track Records who own the rights to a lot of really great vietnam era music (the who, Jimi Hendrix, John Entwistle etc.) and they're a pretty small company still so I could try contacting them and asking permission to use some of their material. if not, I can also produce some stuff for your mod myself, or I could sample some prolific vietnam era music and make derivative work with that.

sixt 26 Posted January 22, 2014 I love the vietnam period, and would like to se a good mod as unsung in arma 3. But does this mean that you stop your work on the arma 2 samples mod? cause for me, though i would like this, the sample mod is more importen, so hope you dont forget it. Anyways, thanks for your work, im enjoying playing arma 3 on the old arma 2 maps, way more than on Altis... Sixt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corporal_lib[br] 396 Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Thou it is a lil late for the loadout discussion, but the ARVN and the US used the Thompson M1 (with 30 rounds magazine), M3 carbine (Grease Gun - it was called carbine, but was a .45 SMG), the M1 and M2 carbine and the M1 Garand was used as DMR, fitted with a scope http://world.guns.ru/userfiles/images/rifle/8/1288258591.jpg The Charlies had french rifles, smgs and even eastern europe copies of the STG 44, besides the so popular type 56 (chinese SKS) and type 58 (mostly the so called "AK"s of the VC were chinese made type 58) The SMGs and M1 carbines were basically deployed to engineers, tank crews and most of the ARVN troops... I´ve wrote an Vietnam addon for my friend´s pen and paper RPG 8 years ago (I could post it somewhere, but it is all in brazilian portughese, so not so usefull for you guys), I´m glad to contribute and anxious to test it out! cheers!

zach72 1 Posted January 23, 2014 Wouldn't @A3VC be a better name - ArmA 3 Vietnam Coop, so you get the "VC!" in there! Hope you find time to release your @ASM mod before you get too bogged down in this - a lot of people are waiting impatiently for the A2 vehicles in A3! Have you spoken to the Unsung mod team? Could be worth teaming up.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alduric 10 Posted January 23, 2014 Cant tell you anything i think about Unsung team, but yes :) They contacted me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyl3r99 41 Posted January 23, 2014 Good point zach Just make sure you don't get bogged down and buried with work mate. Also yeah as zach said UNSUNG was looking for people to work with check them out mate could be a step in the right direction ---------- Post added at 21:28 ---------- Previous post was at 21:27 ---------- My bad I meant VTE but unsung is a great step also lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pharoah 65 Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) awesome!! I was hoping someone would develop this!! I'm a HUGE fan of the vietnam war era but there's very little in the way of actual games. ARMA is perfect for this. Unfortunately I can't model or whatever to save my life. What I would suggest is you start with a basic set of stuff and then work from there ie. US Army/USMC - M14, M16, M60, M79, 60mm/81mm mortars, UH1H (slick), UH1B (gunship), A1D or F100 or F105, 105mm artillery, DHC4 Caribou VC/NVA - SKS, AK47, RPK, RPG, mines Edited January 24, 2014 by Pharoah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samyg 3 Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) Whats new? - I just finish Hueys, works great - Left and Right gunner working properly! - Got guns: M16A1, M16A1GL, M16A2, M16A2GL, M14, M60, COLT1911,FN-FAL (used as i saw on photos), rpg18. The M16A2 did not exist till the 1980s so it would make no sense to include that rifle. Here are some links that show what weapons were used by both sides: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weapons_of_the_Vietnam_War http://www.history.com/topics/weapons-of-the-vietnam-war http://www.militaryfactory.com/vietnam/vietnam_war_weapons.asp http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/vietnam/trenches/weapons.html http://www.173rdairborne.com/weapons.htm Edited January 24, 2014 by samyG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr pedersen 41 Posted February 2, 2014 (edited) I like the last screen. Did you test with 40 players or AI? Do you have a Custom build Island for you Vietnam units in development? Will you work with the Unsung Vietnam mod team or other Vietnam mod team? What is your first goal with for release? Infantry units & Weapons? Helicopters? I send you a PM. ;) Edited February 2, 2014 by Mr Pedersen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
