Edge 2 Posted November 27, 2002 Blake, the Sako loooks awesome, the Finnish troops now get rifle they deserve!!! BTW I started working on older version of Finnish smocks. Today I have a plan to finish winter textures for infantry and Sissi units. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikkoFin 0 Posted November 27, 2002 Hmm... Jazmon is working with winter-textures already and they look really nice and you can have some screens after he finishes his work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tkkivi 0 Posted November 27, 2002 Sounds good! will you be adding snow camo for the m85, or the tanks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edge 2 Posted November 28, 2002 MikkoFin: Sure, show us some winter stuff pictures!!! BTW I have just sent some people first pics of the snow troops (Blake being one of them:)) Unfortunately my website is down now, so I havent got a chance to place the pics here... Another question: when may we expect some more addons? Are you planning the big PBO or rather separated addons? (I would preffer them to be separated...)

Blake 0 Posted November 28, 2002 I think separate addon files is better, at least in the beginning. It makes updating the stuff much easier for users as they will not have to download one huge pack all over again because of some minor modification in one weapon etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gollum1 0 Posted November 28, 2002 I´ll download the pack no matter how big it is, but it would be best to split it into smaller addons in the beginning. A day after I downloaded Winter Nogojev with my 56k, version 1.1 came out. Right... But how large would the pack be? 100 MB? More? Less? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikkoFin 0 Posted November 29, 2002 It will be something like 50 mb, but we can't say that yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the BIS Mi17 the tail rotor is on the wrong side, which makes it like Mi8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gollum1 0 Posted December 2, 2002 You probably all know this, but the Mi-8 will be rendered obsolete in a few years, when Finland purchases brand new NH90 transport helicopters. An Mi-8 might be easier to make, but take that NH90 into consideration... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MikkoFin 0 Posted December 15, 2002 Hehehee, it doesn't. But we can try to make homepages so you can get something. We have been doing only that wintersuit, not anything else for now. And all that stuff, 122mm Howtizer(D-30) has model almost ready but no textures at all, KrH has the same and both are difficult to aim too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also will you make at least new textures to it, so it wouldn't look totally identical to the LAW? Only a request... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However the 'reload' of the LAW launcher takes about the same time as taking a new, unused LAW launcher from your back. Could the animation be replaced by the one that is used when the launcher is put on the back when switching to rifle? Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
