Maio 293 Posted November 7, 2011 Thanks Mack, good read. nope no access ( just blank)you can also look for units from VBS in Arma 3 ;) What in the blazez are you talking about Pure? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purepassion 22 Posted November 7, 2011 (edited) that sentence doesnt make any sence, does it? :D What I wanted to express is: It is very likely that some of the units in VBS could be used in Arma 3 aswell, so looking in the vbs library to get an idea of what units could be represented in Arma 3 might be interesting. yeah thats what i wanted to say ^^ Now that its said that VBS will use the updated RV engine aswell, i hope the similarities of these products produce benefits for Arma 3 and the engine. (Teams can work closer together-exchange achievements/improvements) Btw. : Is someone here registered to the BISimulations Forum ?

noubernou 77 Posted November 7, 2011 RV3 = ArmA2. RV4 = ArmA3. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Coulum- 35 Posted November 7, 2011 RV3 = ArmA2. RV4 = ArmA3. So what engine does the current vbs2 use. Is it going to be upgraded or something? I'm kinda lost. I really hope vbs2 features seep into arma 3. the "improved vehicle damage" goal alone has me considering buying vbs2 if it weren't for the fact that I have no clue how you actually purchase it.

noubernou 77 Posted November 7, 2011 VBS2 = RV2, which is what ArmA1 uses. They differ significantly though from the RV engines in ArmA. You can contact a BIS sales rep for a price quote. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Coulum- 35 Posted November 7, 2011 Ah I see. Thanks for that clarification. Now when they say vbs2 is going to use RV3 rendering they essentially mean vbs2 will have the same kind of graphics as arma 2. am I correct? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
noubernou 77 Posted November 7, 2011 Yes, amongst other things like multithreading, etc (which is a big deal, its pretty easy to get VBS2 to chug since it can only support one CPU). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fox '09 14 Posted November 9, 2011 does VBS2 support arma 2 RVMATs , and, will an ArmA 2 unit addon work with VBS2? If not, are there any steps I can take? No idea where else to post a question like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
noubernou 77 Posted November 9, 2011 I do not think so, for both. The unit skeletons are different in VBS2 and so is the shader and materials support. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BobcatBob 10 Posted November 10, 2011 (edited) Increased terrain detail and dynamic gridRealistic vehicle damage (remeber that truck without a door at E3 presetation?) Support for many more AI entities Can we take these for granted for A3? Hope so. Can you europeans acess http://nato.vbs2.com ? Is that a Lite version of VBS2 for anyone or just military personel? This link works for me now, I think u guys should see a web page now when you click the link!:) Edited November 10, 2011 by BobcatBob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BobcatBob 10 Posted November 10, 2011 yes, working now :) Excellet! those Graphics seem to be looking a bit better than the usual VBS2 fare, maybe there from the 2.0 version (I now they're going to demo it at ITSEC soon so it must be somewhat presentable) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

noubernou 77 Posted November 11, 2011 What do you mean? They have been using ArmA2 and now ArmA3 pics and vids for showing off VBS2 for a while now, even though its still on RV2, and wont get RV3 till next summer (and wont get RV4 till ????). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
