fat_lurch 337 Posted October 20, 2018 https://media.giphy.com/media/dgJPfHjnfiv4ccQiHg/giphy.gif Update 24 October, 2018 This is my Multispectral (MS) IFF strobe - it strobes in Thermal (MWIR - Medium Wave IR) and Nightvision (NIR - Near IR). The strobe shows up in inventory as a grenade with the name of "MS IFF Strobe" - this overwrites the vanilla "B_IR_Grenade" NATO IR Grenade. This addon no longer requires ACE3. The strobe can be thrown or used in the ACE Attach system. This strobe will last for 5 hours before the battery dies. The effects are built into the configuration files of the model so they *should* have better performance than script based solutions. If you'd like to use any part of this mod for your own work please contact me on Steam - I'd love for a better coder to make this better (hint hint ACE Team). PLEASE: if you rate this item negatively, leave a comment so I know what to fix. KNOWN ISSUES: -The Thermal effect doesn't seem to "stick" to the strobes if they're moving fast -The thermal flash shape is a bit ugly - I plan on trying to come up with a nice round circular flash TO DO: -Update NIR strobe pattern to match the MWIR pattern - This appears to be hard-coded -Configuration screen for strobes? I'd love some help on this Credits: -Bohemia Interactive Studios for the vanilla ARMA 3 content -The ACE3 team for their awesome work -super-truite and his awesome Particle Editor addon -SzwedzikPL for sharing his script-based solution on ACE3 GitHub 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reed Unfortunately not - I have to create a new particle effect, etc. so the Addon approach worked best. I'll look into it to see if there's a way to port what I'm doing.
