RHS Escalation (AFRF and USAF)

[mistyronin 1181]

Hello everyone! 

 

We would like to announce that we are looking for capable artists willing to join the RHS US team and assist us in our great endeavour. 

 

To be specific, we need skilful artists with knowledge of both 3D modeling and texture-work (even if they later focus on one of the fields). 

 

Think you can fit the bill? Send us a PM with some of your work in Facebook or a private message to MistyRonin in the BI Forums  ;)

Real soldiers rip the limbs off dead soldiers and use them as weapons no joke. :D

Yes I searched, no I could not find a clear answer.

 

Is there a way to enable the optics attachments that come with the vanilla game for the RHS weapons? I am using the Joint Rails addon already, but I can't add any of the vanilla game attachments to any weapons. Using 0.3.8 version of the RHS mods. I also can't attach any other optics either from other optics packs (FHQ_Accessories for example) that also use Joint Rails to attach them to any RHS weapon.

It should work, we played yesterday and could mount all optics. Probably you have some addon conflict.

It does not for me. I've triple checked that there are no other addon conflicts. Even only using RHS and ASDG Joint Rails I'm only able to attach a couple optics from RHS to each weapon and do not have any options to attach any of the vanilla game optics, the vanilla optics are simply missing from the selection screen for weapon optics on the right hand side of the screen in the Virtual Arsenal when using any RHS weapon.

[Redphoenix 1540]

You don't need ASDG. And that's most probably causing the bugs.

[bigpoppablunts 53]

What version of ASDG JR are you using?

I decided to re-download the mods to compare and see if something went wrong. I've spent about the last 6 hours comparing every single file from my previous download to my new one. From my best guess based on my findings, apparently downloading RHS Escalation 0.3.8, which is suppose to include both complete mods in the 0.3.8 versions, actually gives you 0.3.5, but is labeled as 0.3.8 everywhere you would commonly check to make sure it's the "correct" version. After manually swapping out every single pbo file, I now supposedly have 0.3.8 actually working now, instead of a 0.3.5 completely mislabeled and misrepresented as 0.3.8. However, to top it all off because nothing can ever go smoothly, despite downloading individually from armaholic the AFRF and USAF 0.3.8 versions separately and implementing them, now all of my documentation about the mod in game, including the options menu, is labeled as 0.3.7 version.

 

So basically, I have no effing idea. All optics now work, so downloading AFRF and USAF in separate forms vs downloading the mislabeled version of the Escalation Pack has fixed that issue. But now I have no idea if I ACTUALLY have 0.3.8, or if I somehow got yet another mislabeled version considering the in game options menu says it's version 0.3.7... I have ensured every single old file from my Escalation download is completely erased from my system.

use our updaters:

http://www.rhsmods.org/page/updaters

 

just follow the steps, the rest is an automated process that should get all your files into proper shape

 

PS: we have no control over what is being uploaded on Aholic, PW6 or other 3rd party hosting websites..

[ice_age0815 37]

that is the best way to update this mod and the fastest long live RHS mod lol

I don't know where else I can find help with RHS, so maybe someone here can help:

 

A lot of the time, not always but very often, when I try to enter a vehicle with any sort of door opening animation other than from a chopper, the character entering the vehicle just gets stuck next to the vehicle unable to do anything until the vehicle itself is deleted or destroyed. It happens with players and AI alike.

 

I have the latest version of RHS and its dependency addons, and this problem happens even when only RHS and its dependency addons are running.

[Redphoenix 1540]

"dependency addons"?

 

We don't have any "dependency addons".

Escalation has not been released as a combined pack since 0.3.5. Since then you can only get the separate packs (this is mainly due to USAF no longer requiring AFRF, and ease of distribution). As pufu pointed out, use either the updaters or the torrents from our website to get the latest. Always. As for the ingame menu it was indeed missed that in 0.3.8 it actually incorrectly said 0.3.7.

Question:

 

Will the patchless Russian soldiers return in a future version like 0.3.9 ? :)

I was not aware that they disappeared, will have a look.

We don't have any "dependency addons".

I think he meant mods that are dependent upon RHS, like the PAK FA and other packs which use your guns and units

Will the bipod ever be animated (the ones on the m4s/m16s)?

They have been since 0.3.7....

You're thinking of the wrong one... I'm talking about the this grip/bipod.

At some point, they probably should :)

Ah, sorry. Misread M4 as M14 and thought you meant the Harris bipod...
