Most did but ive seen them without, I may do both variants if im feeling up to it.

 

Isnt that the Ithaca 37 Vietnam modification?

Could be, most reference photos from that era are extremely hard to find. But as i said may do both variants.

Yeah, that's the version that saw some use in Vietnam and sold a lot in the civilian market. This is the one used in WWII.

Thanks for the ref photo, but I havent seen any like that in my research and im convinced that may be a toy considering how the pump is locked in place by the giant metal bar.

I just said it is twice.

Thats from James D Julia Auction house, they sell some of the finest firearms out there. I promise it isn't a toy. That metal bar is how pump shotguns work, it connects the pump to the bolt. 

Here is a ad from Ithaca during WWII which shows that shotgun.

I'm not sure what your asking. But yeah that's a shotgun.

[k4ble 71]

 

This one is the itchaca 37 "stakeout" variant if im not mistaking, A law enforcement variant of the original 37 used by police, key feature is the pistol grip.

first year of service is 1946 im afraid. Saw action in Vietnam, not sure about korea.

 

But keep up the good work, the mod is looking great

[chas gate 23]

I was  saying the winchester model 12 whas what they used in the usa fore are shot gun idk were the ithaca came from and i never heard of its use in ww2 but it might have been used

it most likely saw action in WW2 because it was available at the time. but the Ithaca company scrapted most of the production for the model 37 during the war to focus on producing the M1911 pistols and M3 Grease guns.

So they werent that many arround.

Some Soldiers took their own weapons in war.  I dont know more :D

 

I got a question to the vehicles: I am searching some vehicles of WW2. I see you will work on it after the Infanterie stuff, How far is this mod at the moment with the vehicle release? I dont know much about modelling and scripting of ingame content, so maybe you can tell me ;)

Hi vehicles are planned after infantry. I won't say how close as that will invite people to ask about release dates even more.

This mods weapons are looking good but i need to report an issue.Sorry if its already known about.

 

Well it seems that when i shoot an AI unit who is holding the M14 BAR,the MP40,thompson M1A1 or the Kar 98,the units arm will "spaz out"...Kind of stretch 20 meters away from his body after unit is hit.

 

Is this an issue only i am having?

Yep we're aware of this issue and it has been cleaned up for the next release

Apologies for the lack of updates on the official blog over the last couple of weeks - I've just completed the final stages of a 200 mile move, so needless to say I have not had time to update anything PR wise.

As Tommy mentioned, we're always on the lookout for new people. Ping him an email or direct message on here and he'll get back to you.

WIP of the Ithaca 37 with textures

 

[Rabbit35 122]

It is with incredible sadness and frustration that I, and only 1 other member is all that is left in what just last night was the strongest of all WWII mod teams that has, as of this morning, split.

 

Although an almost releasable version is ready, with only 1 or 2 minor changes ready to go, the majority of our new content was removed from the mod, and merged with Faces of War and Hell in the Pacific

 

as angry as I am with these members abandoning the mod just as a release was mere weeks away it is a consolation that at the very least I know that there are 2 already high quality mods that can now be made even better by some extremely talented artists

 

As for the state of this mod, my intention was to carry on until I could release all of our assets that I could, but any chance of that has been diminished in the last few hours as I am the only member willing to carry on

[n_icomach 312]

Final Release

I share the same sentiment as Rabbit. We were very close to release and moving onto vehicles some of which are mostly complete, and other team members decided to leave for another project in the same time period. Additionally we just struck up a collaborative partnership with the 7th Cav Vietnam Development team and planned on sharing resources and knowledge.

 

To all those who were looking forward to ww2 in arma I personally apologize. I devoted hundreds of hours personally and would love nothing more to see this mod continue but with such a blow to our man power I dont see that happening. Rabbit and Myself could of course keep developing but I always felt it was a waste to have multiple mods in the same time period doing the same exact thing. So good luck to the Faces of War team, just wish we could of all worked together instead of wasting everyones time.
