Had a look, you can't actually add the Javelin or L115A3 or L110A1 to the tripod

 

Yep that is correct - L115A3 and L110A1 are not tripod mountable IRL. They don't have the mounting systems. As for the javelin I don't think it uses the same tripod IRL so would be correct to not be mountable here either.

 

You should be able to mount the L7 GPMG, M2 .50cal and the GMG.

Yea, may have to do something, the only reason I'd like this feature is it adds a little more to the weapons in a fire support role in terms of allowing the weapons to be permanently mounted

[gunny24 46]

one note regarding the L110 in 7.62 i think the magwell for STANAG´s have to be removed and the barrel should be thinker

[andy1 71]

The javelin will have its own tripod as has been already been stated it uses a different tripod. This however is in the long list of things that need to be modelled textured and configed to get in game.

I may be able to help you gents with the model situation, wait out on that

Would be good to have a mounted Javilin

I think the tripod are a bit big for the l115a3 and the l110a1 mate as they have a bipod on them mate the 50cal he's talking about is the HMG and the GPMG and the GMG all do on the big tripod and if I'm right there working on a tripod for the Javlin too

Yea I figured lol, I know I'll probably end up having one made and giving it a go within my group then perhaps donate the work to 3CB as it is a very nice feature

Afaik they said a Javelin tripod was on their backlog

 

If you use ACE that includes a smaller tripod for use with sniper rifles but the tripods included in 3CB are all heavy weapons versions

 

And I've never seen snipers use tripods, they have enough shit to carry as it is

[gunny24 46]

oh, and  wasnt there a hiddenselection or something to get the L85´s in tan?
 or is it for now just the railcover´s?

You can google all the operator kit you want it doesn't change the fact I've never seen one get used or even carried

For something like that just use ACE, they have a specially designed tripod for sniper rifles which can be carried inside the backpack, its called the SSWT kit or something like that

Which is more or less what they've got in the pic anyways!

For the record, I'm not advocating that 3CB should or should not make a DMR tripod, as that's their choice.  I'm also not clear if you're saying you've never seen a tripod used by Brits or in general.  I can't argue whether Brits use them or not (though I'd guess they do).  However, if you do go to the Hog Saddle sight, or just look up deployment pictures through searching the internet, you'll see TONS of pictures of tripods in use with SPRs, DMRs, and bolt guns in-country.  Often you'll see them used when shooting through loopholes, since they're not always at convenient heights.

 

Again, I'm not trying to argue this is something 3CB needs to emulate in-game, but it's a very real tool used currently in the real world.

 

Sorry for the threadjack, 3CB.  Sounds like ACE is the best interim solution to the issue.

[evrik 843]

That's okay. We don't currently have any plans to include them at the moment, mainly because we have more pressing issues attempting to incorporate the Jet DLC features into our vehicles. On the weapons front, the focus is the new L129a1 and then the L7 models.

Hey, just trying this stuff out, it all looks really nice!

 

I've ran into a problem though, I can't seem to use any of the 3CB optics and attachments on the 3CB weapons - but the attachments work on all other weapons in the game. So I'm obviously doing something wrong. Any ideas of what it could be?

[UK_Apollo 476]

Can you double check that you are running @cba_a3 as well?

If that's not the problem, please post a complete list of mods that you have loaded.

 

Then check with this example using the Arsenal:

How do the mortars in 3cb work? 

[easyeb 137]

Yes sir, I'm running CBA_A3.

 

Other mods used are

 

3den enhanced, ACE, ALiVE, ASDG Joint Rails, ASR AI, Project Opfor, RH Accessories and RHS.

[UK_Apollo 476]

@easyeb 

Please try running again without ASDG Joint Rails as this is now no longer required and probably conflicts.

You may also want to remove RH Accessories temporarily just in case.
