[eggbeast 3673]

wow that's a nice offer Axtros. we could make it into an armed BAe Hawk.

However at present I don't have any modelers free to engage with it.

I will aks the wider team in the next week and let you know.

otherwise, maybe we can revisit it in a few months if nobody has yet done anything with it?

[bars91 956]

Just a random offer:

If you ever decide to include stringtables for other languages, I can translate english to russian :rolleyes:

[hcpookie 3770]

I always include string tables, but 'somebody' on the team always removes them. The problem I've found with XML stringtables is that you can't include formatting, so color includes break the XML file.

[bars91 956]

Well, the point is: need any help with translation to russian - feel free to drop me a PM :)

EDIT: or vice-versa russian to english (like something from russian web/forums as they tend to contain more in-depth/specific info)

[eggbeast 3673]

We have also "connected" these pages to your account on Armaholic.

This means in the future you will be able to maintain these pages yourself if you wish to do so. Once this new feature is ready we will contact you about it and explain how things work and what options you have.

When you have any questions already feel free to PM or email me!

[eggbeast 3673]

if you think the pics look good, try popping in our server for a test flight...

[bars91 956]

Sith just goat rail :cool:

BTW - if I remember correctly, PRACS had an SU-24/SU-24M? If so, is there a possibility it will get included someday?

[eggbeast 3673]

maybe yeah, we did ask Gnat for it, but he's been too busy to respond so far.

previously he allowed me to rearm it, so who knows, maybe soon...

wld427 is helping us quite a lot, but obviously it aint his plane to share.

me n pook were dog-fighting last night in the mig35 (beware it has a damage tyres script we're gonna fix) and a su30M, both have thrust vectoring and it was like an aerial sports car rally...

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 AM ----------

p.s. thanks for the mirrors guys - appreciate it

[bars91 956]

On further reading, SU-24 is being slowly phased out of air forces operating it. So SU-34 does the job.

[hcpookie 3770]

Yeah a few issues with the Mig29 series, including that tire damage script (it appears to be a pre-Arma2 attempt at damage effects). The issues are being researched :)

Hi Guys!

I find two problem:

1. More aircrafts has no ammunition in the 30mm Gsh-30-1 gun. For example: Mig-29, SU-37M, SU-30M, etc.

2. No gunner seat in the L-39ZA, and L-59 aircrafts.

Thx!

[eggbeast 3673]

please make no more reports - as we are busy with the mod, just enjoy the good stuff.

you are probably running other mods, as our planes have working ammo

http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?186417-pook_SAM-Pack-v1-0-discussion

Different models included:

- 9K331/9K332 Tor (SA-15)

- 9K37 / 9K317 Buk (SA-11)

- 96K6 Pantsir (SA-22) (working airburst AAA)

- NASAMS (AIM-120)

- C-RAM ADS (working airburst AAA)

- MIM-104 Patriot System (and support vehicles) (static can throw a popup error - fix next version)

- SA3 static and mobile launcher vehicles (static can throw a popup error - fix next version)

Russian designations for Russian systems. Missile performance and behavior based on real-world data and video footage. The 9K33x, 9K37, and 9K317 are normally radar guided, and they can also be optically guided in an ECM-heavy environment. Therefore, I added manual control to these missiles. This is subject to removal in future releases based on feedback.
All BIS factions represented, since it stands to reason that the CDF and Takistani Army would have acquired these in their inventories. 

9K331/9K332 Tor (SA-15 Gauntlet)
---------------------------------
The SA15 system is intended to be a "point defense" system near airbases and other high value assets. Intended for defense against aircraft, helicopters, cruise missiles, and other precision guided weapons. System consists of a mobile launcher containing 8x missiles that are vertically launched from the turret. Both tracked and wheeled models are present. The 9K332 represents an incremental upgrade of the system, and is wheeled in the addon.

9K37/9K317 Buk (SA11 Gadfly /SA17 Grizzly)
-------------------------------------------
The Buk system is an intermediate-range defense system intended for defense of military assets including military vehicles and troops. The systems consist of a mobile launcher with 4x missiles. The 9K37 is a series improvement over the original SA6 system. The 9K317 is a series upgrade of the 9K37 system. Tracked and wheeled versions for both systems are present (4x total). The wheeled version is distinguished with the "-M2" designator.

96K6 Pantsir S1 (SA-22 Greyhound)
----------------------------------
The 96K6 is a series improvement of the 2S6 Tunguska point defense system. The 96K6 consists of the stnadard 2A38M autocannon, and 12x missiles on a wheeled chassis. The missiles are improved over the Tunguska in range and performance.

NASAMS (AIM-120)
-------
The NASAMS system is a mid-range system produced by Raytheon. NASAMS is in use in several countries worldwide. System consists of a mobile 6x launcher armed with AIM-120 missiles adapted for surface launch.

C-RAM
------
The C-RAM system is a short-range area defense system intended to counter rocket, artillery, and mortar attacks. Since this is currently not practical in-game, it is perfectly suited for short-range air defense.

MIM-104
--------
Both the PAC-2 and PAC-3 systems are represented. The AN/MPQ-53 radar and OE-349 antenna mast group are also included.

SA3
----
Current version (1.3) added static SA3 launcher. Also "midlife upgrade" mobile version on T55 chassis.

SCUD SSBM

http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?186733-SCUD-with-Artillery-Computer-Control

SCUD with HE and 5kt Nuke warheads. Missile is managed via the Artillery Computer in the same way as GRAD and MLRS rockets. Vehicle resized larger to more realistic dimensions.

Vehicles found under a new class "SSBM" to avoid conflicts with the default BIS SCUD. All BIS factions and sides (East, West, Ind) are represented with differing camo variations.

This was developed for player-based use, especially in MP games. The HE warhead is standard. The 5kt Nuclear warhead is based on real world capabilities.

Artillery Computer ranges were tweaked, so the minimum limits allow the warheads to target "danger close" to the launch vehicle. Max ranges allow the SCUD to reach the entire Chernarus and Takistan maps. Larger maps have not been tested (yet).

Nuke script is based on an older EVO Nuke script and may have some MP issues. Further testing in MP games is warranted!

The warhead is armed via the action menu. The arming scripts are configured to prevent firing unless the scaffold is fully raised. This should prevent misfires. Scripts may be tuned further.

The warhead selection is made via the action menu. Additional warhead types are planned to supplement the HE and 5kt Nuke warheads.

There is no provision for re-arming the SCUD launcher after it is fired.

The complete cycle of the arming of the SCUD via the action menu takes approximately 1.5 minutes game time. The real life launcher takes at least 40 minutes to 1 hour, but this will not be modelled!

To use the SCUD, perform this series of actions from the action menu:
1. Prepare scud launch
2. Select warhead. Select either:
- Select Nuclear (5kt) Warhead
- Select HE Warhead
3. Erect Launcher. (this raises the launcher to the upright position)
4. Arm Warhead. This will arm the warhead, enabling the Artillery Computer to be used.

You can now use the Artillery Computer to fire the missile just like an MLRS/GRAD missile!

NOTE: You can select "Cancel" to cancel the launch sequence
