cleggy 297 Posted January 3, 2016 Tag_blx would like to introduce the M1117 'Guardian' ASV for Arma3 What is it? The M1117 ASV is an American built 4 x 4 Light Armored Vehicle. In US service it is issued to the Military Police for duties such as base protection and convoy escort (hence Armored Security Vehicle). It is also used by other nations in a security role. Armed with a .50cal machine gun and 40mm grenade launcher in a one man turret the manufacturers also point out it's usefulness as a fire support platform. It has a crew of three plus room for one passenger/detainee. ;) What do you get? Under BLUFOR > NATO > Armored : Vehicles in Desert and Woodland camo. Under IND > UNPOL > Armored : Vehicle in UN white camo. Known 'Features' Some of the doors and hatches open. This is cosmetic only at the moment, meaning the crew cannot turn out. Current Version: 1.1 Changelog: [Fixed] wrong path on machine gun proxy [Fixed] machine gun particles showing in the wrong place So why not give a Humvee the day off work with one of these links: http://www.mediafire.com/download/bigzvwyc587dzms/blx_M1117_v1.1.7z Armaholic: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=30108 PWS: http://withsix.com/p/Arma-3/mods/7EtpHgRHwESmaI2SUwmA-g/M1117-Guardian-ASV-light-armored-vehicle Released under licence: http://www.bistudio.com/community/licenses/arma-public-license-share-alike 14 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cleggy 297 Posted January 4, 2016 Hi guys or gals, thanks for the replies, likes and interest - much appreciated. And thanks to Foxhound and Sonsalt for the hosting. I'll try and address some of the salient points raised so far: You sexy beast you! True Dat - tho' I can't help thinking you were looking in the mirror when you typed that A few errors as there seems to be a zasleh proxy from the ridgeback :D (not as important) 21:51:57 Warning: Convex component representing Slide not found Well, it wouldn't be a Cleggy release without the odd c*ck up :P The zasleh proxy is obviously fixable but I may wait a bit before releasing a fix- to see if anything else bubbles to the surface .... The convex component error I was aware of - tho' I couldn't convince myself it was my addon causing it - I have nothing relating to 'slide' in the model so bit of a mystery that one. Looks good. Any plans for variants? Command and Control, ambulance, ect? There are other versions, transport (driver, commander, and +8 troopers)? As far as I know these variants are based on the vehicle with an extended wheelbase and roof line - which would mean a fair amount of rebuilding so I don't know - basically I made the wrong model ... :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gabravo2005 40 Posted January 4, 2016 Great addon man, I just have one problem. The 40mm fires, but the 50 cal doesn't...... Anyone else experiencing this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CameronMcDonald 146 Posted January 4, 2016 Nice stuff, Cleggy. This might have been asked before, but any interest in offering your work for incorporation into RHS's mod? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mistyronin 1181 Posted January 5, 2016 This might have been asked before, but any interest in offering your work for incorporation into RHS's mod? I hope Cleggy doesn't mind if I answer this question for him: Yes, no, maybe... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's the reason, you don't have one but the game wants to have one. In the Geometry Phys LOD, create a selection for the Hull (only needs to be the bottom part of the hull if you have it divided into multiple parts, otherwise just select the entire hull). Name that selection "Slide". Problem solved ;) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cleggy 297 Posted January 5, 2016 Thanks for the replies! Great addon man, I just have one problem. The 40mm fires, but the 50 cal doesn't...... Anyone else experiencing this? Do please let me know if anyone else is having this problem This might have been asked before, but any interest in offering your work for incorporation into RHS's mod? tbh Mistyronin and Gurdy have been very supportive of this little project from day one so it's probably the best home for it - assuming it gets through QA at RHS that is .... :o That's the reason, you don't have one but the game wants to have one.

silentghoust 132 Posted January 7, 2016 which would mean a fair amount of rebuilding so I don't know - basically I made the wrong model ... :) I wouldn't mind if it was accurate as long as they were practical. Maybe even a ATGM variant? :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gabravo2005 40 Posted January 10, 2016 Thanks for the replies! Do please let me know if anyone else is having this problem Ok, I removed everything but CBA and ACE3 and the 50 cal works fine. Now I have to add all of my mod's to see which one is conflicting with your vehicles. I did get an error though with just CBA and ACE3. It had to do with the Commander's Optics..... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLimbo365 70 Posted January 10, 2016 I really like these vehicles, I think they would work really well for escorts on a convoy mission or even as a light fire support vehicle Do you plan on adding a turn out ability (Atleast for the gunner) Or will you be leaving them as is?

cleggy 297 Posted January 10, 2016 Thanks for the replies! I wouldn't mind if it was accurate as long as they were practical. Maybe even a ATGM variant? :D After a bit of research it seems that there are a bunch of options for both the short wheelbase and long wheelbase versions. So many, in fact, that my brain has turned to mush ... RWS and Javelin launcher tho', hmmm .... Ok, I removed everything but CBA and ACE3 and the 50 cal works fine. Now I have to add all of my mod's to see which one is conflicting with your vehicles. I did get an error though with just CBA and ACE3. It had to do with the Commander's Optics..... I appreciate your time on this. I have tried it with CBA and ACE, but will await your results with trepidation ... I really like these vehicles, I think they would work really well for escorts on a convoy mission or even as a light fire support vehicle Do you plan on adding a turn out ability (Atleast for the gunner) Or will you be leaving them as is? I would like the crew to be able to turn out but: 1) potential for clipping issues with the turret for the driver and commander. In RL I think the turret is either rotated or the barrels elevated when turned out - can't get the AI to know that! 2) I would need to do some more custom animations and I'm only just getting into that. 3) I would need to do some more modelling for the interior because more of it is visible if you look around while turned out. so in short - yes, no, maybe :) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
