Make sure you install the addons in the optional folder. You need Reyhard's Static Weapons and his tank pack, as well as the latest version of Sudden's East vs West.

Drongo, eek. that's bad news !

Any change you can set the additions to the core folder ? We have many public people who come on the server and I can see myself having to tell each and everyone of them "have you copied across from the optional folder !?" etc etc nightmare

Means 99% sure I cannot use it on the server.. Please do re-consider merging into the main mod or we're screwed :(

If I put it in the main folder, someone will come along and say that it should be separated or fail to read the requirements for the optional stuff. Why don't you rebundle it all in one folder and tell visitors to download from your link only?

Hmm, we could do that but we try and stick to core PWS mods as often as possible to ensure compatibility and most up-to date etc.

I get where you're coming from Drongo, but I'll bet 10 to your 1 that as many people will now hastle you that "I can't see the T72's where are they !?" lol

Ah, I don't use PWS, so it hadn't occurred to me at all. I'll have a think about how to proceed. I'm hoping in the future there will be a fairly standard one-stop pack of vehicles that I can use, instead of requiring mods that I only use one or two vehicles from.

... ha me too Very frustrating having to merge and mix :)

Talking of which can you edit your "groups" config, so they do call T72's and BTR60's etc. ALiVE never references them otherwise.. I can place them manually, but that's clunky

Drongo... loving the SAA mod we run them as OpFor on our SYRIA | ALiVE public map.

Have however noticed some errors that really spam the logs...

Couldn't see that anyone had registered these before so it's possible they are new ?

Anyway just thought we should let you know.

First post updated with version 026. Changes:

  • Properly configured the uniforms
  • Fixed a bug with the random uniform script
  • Added an officer class to SAA and Hezbollah (simply a copy-paste of a Squad-leader for now)
  • Completed the Units field in CfgPatches (should allow for use with Zeus)

Thanks Foxhound.

I've added Reyhard's BMP 1 and 2 to the mod, but I'll hold off releasing for a few days. Any other requests/suggestions for the next release?

I am also considering removing the "optional" folder and this making Reyhard's packs and Sudden's East versus West mandatory requirements. If you are for or against this, please leave a comment.

Absolutely for it..

Combine them - and allow PW6 to do all the work re pre-requisites.

Simplifies all the manual copying and pasting - ( I know this should be simple but reality is that many of the players on my server get it wrong time and time again )

Great job Drongo btw to get the new vehicles in... Really excited to see them in action - any chance they will be ready before Sunday? - we have an op Against the SAA sunday evening and it would be cool to get them in :-)

Makes the SAA pack pretty much the most well equipped - but what about some Hinds / Mig 23's ?

Not sure what's available in the way of migs, but there are Hinds out there.

The other logical bit of kit would be Shilka based Tracked AA... or some static Heavy duty AA launchers ? Syrian's still use the SA-6 missile system, the 2k12 Kub... that might be a fun addition ?

Edited to add: apparently they have these.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantsir-S1 Not sure if they were ever modelled. I do recall seeing them done for A2... Would be pretty unique bit of kit for sure. They also have Scuds, which could be interesting from a mission planning POV.

I was wondering if you would be willing to have the two factios also aviadable for the independent faction?

and about the mandatory requirements, its up to you, but I personally prefer not having two mods just to run one

Optional pack is not showing in PWS download for some reason ?

That's a bummer :( means my mission will break.
