AZCoder 921 Posted December 18, 2016 Download: Red Vengeance at Steam Red Vengeance is the same mission as Hoc Est Bellum. I renamed it to be more descriptive of the story. Red Vengeance takes place 3 months after Shadow Fall during the aftermath of the CDF victory over the Chedaki. Yakim, an old friend of Shadow Fall's player-character Pytor Tsarev, has reverted to his life of being a mechanic. When presented with a threat to the civilians of Vybor, he and his friend Anton decide to repair an abandoned Russian T-80 tank and take the fight to the CDF! This is a port of my 2012 Arma 2 mission of the same name. Features of Hoc Est Bellum: Voice Acting Tank repair sub-tasks at randomly placed locations RHS Mod tank battle Dynamic Snow Storm Holiday Music at the airfield (can be turned off) Random patrols Mission flow is fsm driven Randomly spawn AI civilians during early stage of mission Vehicles are randomly locked with random chance of alarms Chimney smoke Over 1 hour of game play with a mix of combat and stealth for those who don't like reloading a lot I highly recommend learning how RHS tanks work before attempting this mission, specifically the T-80U. I put some tips into the "Extra Info" section of the map notes, including important keybindings as set in your game.

AZCoder 921 Posted December 21, 2016 I updated the first post with a download link to Armaholic. Please note this is a follow-on mission to Shadow Fall, but more like a one-off, kind of like Rogue One is to Star Wars, but it has nothing in common with Rogue One. Except for explosions. There are explosions in this mission, although Rogue One has a lot more explosions, no denying that. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mordacai 38 Posted December 21, 2016 I remember this Camp for the good old days of Arma 2. Look forward to playing it. Congrats on your new camp! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
inlesco 233 Posted December 24, 2016 This was a lovely piece of action in the Arma 2 times! I remember loving this mission a lot :) Good to see it remade in Arma 3 after quite an extended vacational period :D Will surely give this a ride on I get some time on my hands! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZCoder 921 Posted December 24, 2016 Thank you kind sirs. This version has slowly increasing snow fall, and a touch of Xmas theme music at the airfield (mostly Tchaikovsky), and it can be de-activated via radio 0-0-8 (I think). It comes from the tower, so you won't hear it until you get closer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mordacai 38 Posted January 14, 2017 (edited) Just started this classic camp. Not finished yet. Will give more input soon. Suggesting other players get onboard and give it a try! PS. Hi AZ. I noticed this link of yours: https://github.com/AZCoder/AZC-LIB Would it be too much trouble to set up an example mission that shows how these scripts work? Perhaps using multiple players set on various areas of the map, so in editor, I can select that player and see for myself how the script works. May save you time than having to make a separate example for each and every script you made. Just an idea.

AZCoder 921 Posted January 14, 2017 It's a good idea on the scripts. Currently I'm trying to get some of it a bit more completed first. I just completely rewrote the civilian spawning last week and I plan to revamp the vehicle spawning next. I want to add some dynamic patrol stuff and may end up moving a couple functions around. The ReactiveAI script has been around since I originally wrote this mission a few years ago; I even put a video on YT explaining it. The Invincible script (it's really more of a fake injury simulator) was featured in Dying Ember by Undeceived, and I think I used it in one mission in Shadow Fall. I actually wrote it for GR in 2010 because I had a team member with lots of dialogue throughout a mission, and wanted him to stay alive to speak the lines, LOL. Then there's a bunch of other functions in there, so yeah, I'll see what I can do once I have it a bit more finished up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mordacai 38 Posted January 15, 2017 Or maybe............you can use that time instead for making some more cool missions?.........lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZCoder 921 Posted January 15, 2017 I'm sorting out how the next campaign will go, which is why I'm still working on the functions. First mission is half done. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZCoder 921 Posted February 3, 2017 Since CUP v1.30 came out, they moved all CWA objects into a separate mod (CUP CWA). So if you are using the CUP terrains as separate addons, you need all 3 (Core, Terrains, CWA). I have CUP Complete listed above which already includes CWA, just mentioning this for those not using the Complete version because there are CWA objects in the mission.

AZCoder 921 Posted April 23, 2018 I updated this to version 1.1. The most notable change is the name. It was Hoc Est Bellum, something I came up with around 2011, but that was a nonsensical name. Red Vengeance fits in better with my campaign series that it's part of. I also tweaked some volumes and added a couple of oranges to Yakim's work desk, even if it is a cold Winter in Chernarus. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZCoder 921 Posted January 16, 2020 Version 1.2 is released. Primary change is switching to the Chernarus Winter map (CUP). The map did not exist yet when I originally released this, but it was always a Winter mission as seen by the fake snow piles and blizzard script. Also fixed a number of minor things in the change log of first post. Please note that the FPS may take a severe hit in the last part of the mission. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
