Major Fubar 0 Posted October 4, 2002 Yep, in a 7.62 x 51mm (.308) version. Interestingly, the mags are interchangable with the FN-FAL. -edit- I just checked out their site ( http://come.to/operationflashpoint ), and I don't think it is ready for download yet...

I didnt know that. Probably just the inch guns though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted October 4, 2002 Hmm, not 100% on that...but I know the L1A1 (Australian version of the FAL) could take 30 round Bren mags... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's why I like to see mod teams release addons as teasers for their total mod... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Intruder 0 Posted October 4, 2002 I take it the UH-1D with the damage textures is going to be released cos it's in US colours, just like the A4's were Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruskiesrule 0 Posted October 4, 2002 The British army used to use very good reliable guns, The Bren being one! Another gun we used for a very long time was the 1918 LeEnfield sniper rifle, the most acurate in the world in fact, and we only stoped using it in 1991.

We are planning to release the UH-1H but as US version... BTW the damage textures actually work when the unit is hit.. Obviously there won't be any bullet holes when you first get in... As for the Bren feedback about it being too big.. Yup.. You're correct.. It's being fixed as we speak.. We're planning to release a few more units in the near future..

Intruder 0 Posted October 5, 2002 I wonder why BIS didn't include damage textures to the hulls of vehicles then since it can be done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was just playing around with the glass textures and thought, if that can be done why not fuselage damage. Unfortunately having bullet hole damage from a missile hit doesn't look teribbly realistic, but then damage is damage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZIKAN 0 Posted October 7, 2002 That Bren is ok, a little rough around the edges though. But the maker got the scale right. The sights are wrong but its a good model on the whole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Assault (CAN) 1 Posted October 7, 2002 That Bren is way too big, it's almost the same height as the soldiers carrying it. I've held one IRL and it isn't that big. Tyler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ludovico Technique 0 Posted October 8, 2002 Bren guns are very loud. Make it loud. Muahaha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Morph 0 Posted October 8, 2002 We are aware of the problem with the scaling.. It's being 'fixed' as we speak... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted October 9, 2002 Morph, any chance of a teaser release, or will it be witheld until the whole mod is complete? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
