hcpookie 3770 Posted June 28, 2016 FIRST! FYI I will be going "mostly" offline for Real Life for a few weeks time, so updates/errors may or may not be addressed in a timely fashion. Edit to add - the BTR80 isn't as polished as I'd like but it functions. So its a little rough around the edges right now :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hcpookie 3770 Posted June 28, 2016 I have a bit of time today, so I will release a small update to address the one small popup error that doesn't affect anything but is annoying... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hcpookie 3770 Posted June 28, 2016 Update - fixed the popup error (actually 2 different ones). The pack is now "popup-error-free" so much as I have tested. The ONLY thing you'll need to download is the small replacement file: pook_AFV_v2.1a The other two download files (B, C) are unchanged! You may simply overwrite the pook_AFV.pbo file with the one in here and you're golden! :D And before anyone asks, YES I am aware of the RPT errors. As I said I'll be going "mostly" offline for the next few weeks due to Real Life and will address these non-critical errors when I get the time. New features are planned for future updates, but for now we will not have the flare pistol, road flare, etc. Would you believe I started working on that road flare before DayZ was released but couldn't figure out how to make it work. When I saw "they" had hand flares I said "well if they can do it..." but never completed the config. One day... :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

astrell 3 Posted June 28, 2016 Nice work! But Dude ... your BTR-80 have some serious texture, clipping and config problems :huh: Outside and inside textures seems "color broken" and are slightly transparent, does hurt the eyes really bad. On the rear is a hole on the side with them i can look through the whole tank! As Gunner, if i move the turret the cannon stays in the spawn position and the camera does not move, but the turret is moving. Difficult to describe .... And the commander has no rangefinder. Not playable at all. But they have a nice rear camera ^_^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hcpookie 3770 Posted June 29, 2016 Well, that's the first release. I'm sure Pook's gonna get on that stuff when he gets back ;) Yeah I just shared that as a teaser really.

hcpookie 3770 Posted June 29, 2016 Thanks for hosting it Foxhound! Well if you don't like, don't use it. Or perhaps offer to help to make the addon better, or you could make your own ;) Just to put this into perspective there are 298 different vehicle variations. You get nearly 300 vehicles for $0.00 unlike DCS where you have to spend $30 for 5 vehicles and one terrain. There are 27 BTR80 combinations at last count. So 298-27 leaves 271 vehicles that are "a little more polished". Since I mostly learned 3D modeling with the BRDM's, it is likely close to the equivalent of one year's worth of work "unpaid" to make these happen - assuming since I started with the BRDM's back in 2011. 1600 hours = 40 weeks' worth of 40 hours over the past 5 years, which is a "business contract year". That's basically 6-8 weeks a year devoted to these vehicles over the past 5 years, and I'm certain it was more than that. Just sayin' I need a raise. Or a new hobby. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-TFP- Bridge.J 18 Posted July 4, 2016 Awesome vehicles, now I hate to ask but is there any possibility of you adding the recovery & engineering variants of the Pandur II in the future? Only reason I mention it is there are hardly any engineering vehicles out there and we'd love to use a Pandur as our combat engineering vehicle. If not then no worries, just curious. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hcpookie 3770 Posted July 12, 2016 I haven't found any pictures of a wheeled recovery vehicle. I can add one but wouldn't know how best to configure it. Usually recovery vehicles are tracked. I could add a crane/etc. to the base model but would like to have more information for a "real" recovery vehicle. Ambulance is a possibility I'll have to look into. A little preview of more goodness to come: 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bars91 956 Posted February 7, 2017 Delightful stuff that! I like the unique bits like the BPM-97. A small note on that one tho - the 30 mil BPPU turret could be moved a bit further up-front if you have the time for that All your stuff is always enriching the armaverse with something new! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hcpookie 3770 Posted February 7, 2017 I see that... thanks for that pic. I moved it up some more. The 3D model (from Citizenship) is a bit off so it isn't as far forward as it could be, perhaps by 0.25m. Shouldn't be a problem really :) v2.2 update is imminent. Fixing some more little things before sending out the door. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hcpookie 3770 Posted February 7, 2017 v2.2 upload complete! On my one drive. I'm going to try to publish this to steam if this works... http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=859301260 A few little things to be on the lookout for... IMPORTANT: I have renamed the folder from @POOK (where I put everything) into @POOK_AFV. This should help the download managers (like withsix) as well as MP server management. So if you have a previous build in the @POOK folder, delete all these files... if you don't delete them, the mod will almost certainly pop errors: Quote brdm2imp.PBO brdm2imp.PBO.pook_v2.bisign pook_AFV.pbo pook_AFV.pbo.pook_v2.bisign pook_BTR60.PBO pook_BTR60.PBO.pook_v2.bisign pook_BTR80.PBO pook_BTR80.PBO.pook_v2.bisign pook_Pandur.pbo pook_Pandur.pbo.pook_v2.bisign pook_Pandur_parts.pbo pook_Pandur_parts.pbo.pook_v2.bisign Other stuff... radio ambience scripts. Is there a place to find German, Czech, and farsi-language radio comms? I have only found good Russian "chatter" on youtube. I have made use of the BIS radio chatter sounds as well for non-Russian factions. There are something like 75 different Russian sound clips, so you will likely not hear repetitive radio comms :) About half that for the non-Russian clips. 2A42 cannon muzzle effects greatly improved. PIP! More PIP and reverse-view screens so the driver can back the vehicles easily. Download cut into 3 pieces, again to help those w/ slow internet connections. Get all three!
