Announcement 03JAN2016

All,


Since tomorrow will be a long monday for me, I will not have time to write this so I am doing it a day early...so Happy Early Update Monday!


For the past 6 months, us, as a team, have been developing our skills and improving what content we had to an extent we believed we could not do when we first created 7SS. We have created systems never seen in arma, we have redone topographies on several models, and hell, we've even remade models completely. We have gone through a lot up until this point and 2016 will not be any easier, especially when creating content the games own developers won't create due to the overall complexity, and here we are giving it to the community to enjoy.

If you have watched our livestreams, you would have seen the progress we have made in the last few months on several mods. We are now at a point where we can predict expected releases to some of our content, but you all must understand that this can change at any moment. So without further delay:

Mods Expected for Q1 & Q2 of 2016
F-35B
F-35C
CH-53E
CH-53K
MH-53E,
AV-8B
AH-1Z
UH-1Y
MV-22B
F/A-18C
F/A-18D

Mods Expected for Q3 & Q4 of 2016
T-45C
C-2A
E-2D
KC-130J
MH-60R
MH-60S


Also any LVSR and M11XX Variation vehicles.
Maybe the ABV.
Maybe the USS Michael Murphy

Mods Expected for of 2017

Definite release of the USS Michael Murphy.
A few other ships we're "testing".
Remainder of Aircraft.
Remainder of ground assets.
Potential release of USNWP's Player Units

I do want to make something abundantly clear to the community. Every member of 7SS is currently going to university. Most of us are also working full time or part time jobs on top of school. This means that every 3 months, we will have exams and mod making will be at a stand still. If a mod does not get released in that quarter, that means we had to push it back due to school or life. We will prioritize that over mod making, especially since all these mods are industry quality content and are free.

Due to this, we are looking for community members that have knowledge of modding, or know how to model, texture, or program in order to join the team and be trained up as Arma 3 Mod Makers. If you are interested, or would just like to chat about it, feel free to send me a PM. Just make sure that if you are serious about applying, you have some type of work to show as reference.

Maybe you can ask chops for his arleigh burke model

[thesn4k3 47]

Chops is bringing his arleigh burke on board. He was mistakenly left off of the team list. It is being worked on as we type.

[TurtleImpaler 197]

He's on the team. Forgot to add him and his ship(s) to the list,

Quite an ambitious list. I hope to see some screenshots soon.

[DAGGER ARMANET 172]

Wow this sounds amazing and I am really looking forward to seeing this come to fruition. I give my advanced thanks for all the hard work. Really impressive list. Looking forward to the prowler and intruder. long time favs of mine.

[SGT Fuller 856]

Add the F35C to the list plz from me

[nikiforos 450]

Best thing when a mod nobody expected is presented for the community... Nice suprise!! :)

[2ndLt Schneider-Wiss 11]

this is going to be awesome

[officeramr 269]

Nice E/A 18G is what i'm looking forward too. What will it do? Will it EMP vehicles, jam GPS?

[thesn4k3 47]

It is ambitious but we already have a decent amount of progress and an amazing team working on this. This is going to take a while so we will be releasing addons as we go and updating along the way. We should have some screen shots up soon.

Nice E/A 18G is what i'm looking forward too. What will it do? Will it EMP vehicles, jam GPS?

Realistically it would be used to jam radar for SAMs and stuff like that. Just depends on how deep the arma engine lets us go

[TurtleImpaler 197]

Well, it will take forever to figure out thanks to based god Bohemia, but it will be able to jam any radar lock and jam TFAR/ACRE, and possibly a light EMP device. Not sure if the IRL version can listed to radios or JAM anything heavy but it will definitely hinder the operational capability of any vehicle under it.

Again, not sure how it will work yet due to the complexity of its system capabilities.

Very nice list turtle, I had been keeping up with your armory topic, I see that you and your team are now going to focus on naval stuff. That's awesome! We definitely need more naval units especially with the upcoming Tanoa map. This is great news and I look forward to hearing of more progress.

[atunero 44]

Oh god, CH-53E

Good luck with the development guys!

[stumpysequoia 25]

Hello, I'm one of the founders and current owner of the ArmA 3 unit Carrier Strike Group 11. And I must say I cannot wait for all of the Carrier-borne fixed wing, and sea hawks to be released.

[2ndLt Schneider-Wiss 11]

Turtle when you get to working on the EA-18G lemme know ive worked on both the EA-6B prowler and the newer EA-18G

PM me all the info you can legally divulge on it lol

Screenshots added to first post. More to come as we collect shots of different work.

I have a request and a suggestion. It seems your are lacking Submarines, which would play a key role in special operations. I would suggest contacting "Gnat", I believe he created or assembled a submarine pack. Which contained a Los Angeles, Delta, and Akula Class submarine, if these could be legally imported and modification made to bring them up to Arma 3 standards it could same time and provide some good targets/enemy vehicle. I would suggest making or creating the Sub-launch Missile as a separate item for mission makers. I had a great mission in mind but, I couldn't get the missile to be an object to place in a log bed truck.

Does it actually work properly? Like, can you go underwater and not drown from not having a wetsuit on?

hmm I think the VQI SpookWar mod has something like that

PM me all the info you can legally divulge on it lol

pm sent on the 15th forums

also on as side note theres a socom mkv mod which is early wip by ADSG and as for the H60 for the mod pack a slight rework on the h-60 in the USAF pack with m-240s and a retexture would be a passible for the MH60S now if you were going to have the batwing ess pylons however If your doing a SH-60B I worked on those in japan but the SH-60B/MH-60F/ and the HH-60H have all been replaced by either the MH-60S or the MH-60Rc
