maccrawinthejaw 25 Posted June 3, 2019 Hey, I don't know if this is the proper thread for asking about Dev Branch Contact updates (and if it isn't, I apologize; would somebody be able to link me to a thread that's appropriate if that's the case?), but when can we expect to start seeing things such as new weapons (high emphasis on the weapons; in addition to loving weapons in general it's also somewhat easier to test them out and see how they perform in combat), new uniforms, gear, units, vehicles, etc.? In Arma 3's Discord I saw one answer saying starting Monday the 3rd (of June), and one saying mid-June. Are either of those correct, and if so, which one?

Glow 181 Posted June 6, 2019 New tents I love those tents, finally we can build some cool bases and mazes easy. Very nice. A miss of two little components imo: triple-kind connection and small bend connection 45^ to make those builds more interesting and complicated. 45' can be use twice do give 90' bend or more. ---- Transparent tents and connection Transparent connection would be very cool to have. Maybe something with lifted one side, so we can build a closed way to transport vehicles doors. ---- In Tent Connector on a flore there is a stripe. A cross there would be more useful, logic and looking goooooood. ---- Concrete assets - I love those. To low for Marshal to pass, for Crawler is ok Really cool and we could build some awesome bases but that would require a little bit more work around that asset: - a steel doors instead of those wood ounces, a big steel air lock door, that would open slowly with an animation would be super cool but some slide hangar door would do fine - floor for that asset, that would do building ramps and multiple floors constructions easy - connectors, similar to those tents connectors, 4-ways and 3-ways Yeah, I know that looks stupid crazy but imagine possibilities that gives. Finally we can build missions for underground play, big interiors, etc. I wish to have more of those big concert constructions. One block with hole in ceiling - to build few level "underground" interiors Ramp or something that could be easy use in place of a ramp. Stairs (we have some already). Tunnels (I seen in one scenario, possible to do). ---- Power electric cables connections with cups Those cups are not really necessary. Power cables looks cool on a ground but once you put those cables in air, those cups look very static. I would suggest to cut those cups out, if that not to much work. Details... ---- Details... litry or L ---- Poster from 1992 in 2039 -> 47 years old! Sierpień / August 1992 starts from Saturday not Friday and has 31 days :PPPPP But my question is - Who's that lady? Do you have more? 😉 Are those textures come from older Arma games? I remember this Four guys with a cat funny poster, not sure where I seen that before... ---- This window with missing bricks is super cool but works only in 50% unfortunately. Bottom part don't let bullets go through. This is too good to be left like that imo. Please fix it. I haven't look at all assets but I hope to have this gap presents in more places. For PvP games this is just super cool! You could go further that way - a hole in wall (4-5 missing bricks) on a height of sniper rifle to allow for hidden shots form inside of a room. PvP thing but it could find a use in some PvE scenarios too. ---- Yes. Soon all those nice assets will be fly all over the place. You know, there was that story... about UFO in Emilcin, Poland 1978 ... ;D --- Those assets have bottom! Yey! Nice! ---- I am backing what I wrote about Branzoll Castle, those additional assets can make it very useful. ---- I'm being extra picky now... but not sure about "Ku upamiętnieniu" is 100% correct with Polish grammar. "Ku pamięci" / "Dla upamięnienia" but... not sure is mixing those two into one correct... and I've seen that on a real statue too. ---- Any chance for something more? New cool assets for pre-orders people to have fun? Give as something please. We have June. Can we have one of those target plates with alien on it? ;DDDD New electronics assets and containers are very cool. Computers, servers, this big BI desk and screen all super cool. I have plenty of fun and new possibilities are endless - rooms will look now much more s-f interesting. And the new lights spots! Thank you.

Right now, you can stop decon shower by using following code. [nameOfDeconShower] call bin_fnc_deconShowerAnimStop In next update there will on/off user action for small decon shower too. Is there any command that recognizes when sprinklers are triggered? I'd like to trigger a trigger when it's turned on. @OnTopic Decon Shower has its structures a little transparent. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ravenholme 50 Posted June 8, 2019 We haven't had the UGV's staged but one thing that would be nice and relatively low effort is a full combat variant based off TALON units. Basically just a small, articulated clamp with an LMG in it for use as a squad level fire support drone. For BLUFOR/GREENFOR this could be the Mk 200 LMG and for the CSAT one, the Zafir would be perfect. Would increase the roles that the new UGV could fill and increase its utility for combat deployment. Likewise, if at all possible, underslung shotguns for at least the MX and Katiba family rifles would be nice, if not the Mk20s as well. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

reyhard 2082 Posted June 9, 2019 @snakeplissken are you sure you are running latest version from devbranch? It seems like you are using older build. I'm not exactly when that fix was merged but I tried latest steam dev branch version and it's already working correctly there. As for condition detection, you can try using nameOfObject animationSourcePhase 'valve_source' > 0 @kecske - RedLight_Hide WhiteLight_Hide Level_Crossing_Barrier Following commands can be used with animateSource on Land_Rail_Crossing_Barrier_F 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snakeplissken 96 Posted June 9, 2019 @reyhard thanks for the shower command. And as for the version I'm using, I'm using the "GameUpdater" program from "ArmA 3 Tools" to have both versions on my PC, the stable and the Devbranch version. Only I have not updated to the latest devbranch, as I will do this when more physical resources (weapons) are added.😁 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AveryTheKitty 2626 Posted June 10, 2019 First I'd like to say thanks for the new update! I'm very happy to be able to provide feedback for Arma 3 Contact and watch it develop. Now, for my feedback. The new weapons' sounds are good. Really good. Too good compared to other weapons, which makes me hope for some sort of audio upgrade. There is some level of inconsistency between them and vanilla weapons, for example the Promet GL's UGL shoot sounds compared to vanilla UGL shoot sounds. The Kozlice has the "sgun" cursor while the Promet SG's underbarrel shotgun has the regular "arifle" cursor. The MRD (Black)'s texture is incorrect and it has the wrong UI picture. What's the difference between the DMS / DMS Kir, and ARCO / ARCO AK? Different cursors or ranging? LDF, Spetsnaz, AAF, and CSAT IR strobes have no visual difference from each other. Will we get a UAV terminal for the Spetsnaz? Viper Stealth suppressors are available to the Promet. The RPG-42 (Green) is missing the "Alamut" part in its text. RPG-42 (Camo)? 🙂 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ranging, you can see on AK ones that bullet has larger drop so you have to aim higher compared to A3 ones. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
