They're here!

Recommended Posts

I just tried the UFO out and I must say that it is spectacular and extremely funny. I love the little driving mirror and the air freshner hanging there. The controls are very cool also although I really wish it had some kind of cool death ray. However the most spectacular thing comes when you put AI pilots into them and have them fly to a waypoint set to "safe".

Then set the time of day to nightime.

The lights are SPECTACULAR!!!!!!! Especially the spot light!!! I don't know how they modified the color of the light but it has this really spooky bluish tint to it that makes you feel like you're in the X-Files when you're down below. I normally don't make Sci-Fi missions for OFP, but I think I'll make an exception with this one.

Another good thing about the addon is that it's easy on the memory space as it's nice and small.

However.... I gotta note the bugs... Unfortunately the AI don't know how to land with it and either nose dive into the ground (spectacular to watch) or they just fly in circles. I hope that part is fixed. There are ways around that using flyinheight scripts followed by an ejection script or something, but they don't always work well. It would be nice if that bug is fixed. At any rate, this addon is perfect for a very funny X-Files type mission.

Now all we need is a "grey" addon.... you know those big-headed grey aliens with the big black eyes and no nose. smile.gif

OK. I convinced one of them to pose in front of my WEB cam.

Now what do I do?

Blind him with the light of your scanner.

Then open the cd rom drive and put his finger in it. Close it so he s stuck ( since they have pretty long fingers )

Then ... take another pic so we can continue to plan how to get rid of it.

This thing would be perfect for an X-COM mod or mission. Looks like the one man scout craft you see in the game to.

All we need now is some E.T. buggers to shoot at...yeeeehaaa smile.gif

I would love to see a UFO like in the movie ( Fire In The Sky). I can see it now....you and a few other civis are out drinking beer in your ford bronco addon. And head up to the mountain on koliglchev ,when you see a weird light up the road. Ummm bring your shotgun smile.gif

The only 'bug' i found was the text on the lower side of the disk - it's right-to-left, not left-to-right.
