3CB Factions

[jgaz-uk 132]

All 3CB units. have the option (with tick boxes) to disable random units, &  the set 3CB loadouts. But there is not those disable tick box options for vanilla or say CUP units etc, & so we have found

that 3cb is changing a scripted loadout for those when one is set. So was  hoping for a script to disable that, other than not loading the 3CB mod.

[evrik 843]

I can only assume there is a conflict between the two sets of scripts for determining loadouts. If you manually select loadouts on non-3cb units (i.e. you start with a vanilla unit and select their kit via the arsenal) there is no issue upon mission load. The unit will have the kit you assign it. We've not experienced the problem, nor had it reported before, so I don't know what to suggest.

OK Tks for your time.

Was using a single set of .sqf  for each type of unit;  MG, Medic, sniper commander, etx,etc executed in a unit's init,  old school time saver, for quick mission making.

will work something out. cheers.🧐

PS dont suppose you could add some Female none combat civilians ( as in A2 & Arrowhead) to your Factios list? 👩‍🎤👸🙋‍♀️

Ah, this warms my heart, thank you!

Added P320 Sig Sauer pistol

I noticed that the ammo for P320 is named "9x21", in line with "vanilla" 2035 convention, and not the RL chambering. Is that intended, or a mistake? Also, will be there an option to mount micro red-dot on P320 sometime in the future?

 

Some other things that may be nice to add/fix:

- additional ammo variants of G3 magazines (for example M118LR, which would be lovely for PSG-1 - with ACE one can use ACE mags in that bad boy, but obviously they use vanilla M14 mag model),

- moving the proxy of G36 mag a bit higher (they sit a bit lower than RHS G36 that uses same model - on 3CB Factions version there's visible gap between the magwell and over-insertion stop on the body of mag itself).

[evrik 843]

@krzychuzokecia I have fixed the P320 naming and the G36 magazine well positions for the hotfix which will hopefully be out next week. Other suggestions will have to wait until future releases.

[Federico 76 12]

Hello, congratulation for the great mod!

I wish to report a little bug with the Navistar MaxxPro MRAP: the AI won't shoot at the exposed gunner, even at short distances. They will simply run away or do nothing at all.

[evrik 843]

Okay thanks. I'll take a look.

Hello, any chance you guys will add UK vz. 59 machinegun? It was quite an iconic and unique squad  machinegun, and a nice alternative to PKM for warsaw pact. Could be maybe used in some of the guerrilla factions or middle eastern armed forces. 
Also since you have the 2 cold war factions, US and USSR, any consideration for adding Czechoslovak armed forces? Alot of vehicles and equipment they used is already in your modpack, like T-72s, T-55s, BMP-1 and 2s, Mi-24s... They  would just need a roundel added really. Also vz.58 assault rifle is already a part of RHS mod, and uniforms are basically there aswell (not the same kind, but very similar).

[evrik 843]

I'd need a model of it. Also, I won't be adding any more Cold War factions as it isn't the main setting for the mod pack. US / Soviet were more of a one off for some Cold War BAF ops we were running at the time.

[JuanSanchez 0]

I believe there is a model from A2 DLC, czech armed forces. But yeah I know it must be a lot of work, and I'm not able to really help with that. 
Anyway this is a brilliant mod, thanks for all the hard work! And thanks for the reply.

Hello everyone, has anyone encountered this problem: https://imgur.com/a/F5WNjmO I downloaded your mod today, after this error the game crashes. All modifications on the screenshot

[jgaz-uk 132]

Problem is with squad loadout scripts, without the tick box option for the vanilla squad means each units loadout has to be edited individually. 3cb mod has some excellent stuff but it can be a bit intrusive, overwhelming, re other mods, & vanilla stuff.

[Alex Wingace 0]

I can't find any mention of this in here, but it's been mentioned a couple times in the comments on the Workshop page. The Tunguska's missiles seem to cause a fairly consistent CTD when fired, especially at a target that is deploying countermeasures, citing a Status Access Violation. I know that error code is pretty...Generic, but the crash happens VERY often, and always when the Tunguska is firing missiles.

[evrik 843]

@Alex Wingace Can't seem to replicate the issue. Can you confirm you are testing with just 3CB Factions, cba_a3, and RHS when encountering the error? If so, please give me the steps and conditions to reproduce the problem. I've tested with just those and with the AI or player firing the Tunguska missiles without issue. I've also tested with the 3CB modset we typically use for Ops and had no crashes so it may be a conflict with another mod we don't use?

Hi! Is there any way to prevent the MTLB from opening the rear door from the outside?

[ToxicGhost988 0]

hey I'm having an issue with the dragon launcher its doing no damage to vehicles and the NLAW and Javelins are just swerving them any help would be much appreciated!

 

Edit: i tried a different mod set and now the dragon did a bit of damage but not enough its a very weak for what the launcher should be capable of?
