This is to avoid clipping with the bolt. • Only the light cone is showing on the SAW laser/light combos, not the light point. No idea how to fix that... • Pistol magazines won’t show up if the pistol is holstered. That will be fixed when the next A3 update comes and mod authors add the “showHandgunMagProxy = 1;” to their configs. Please report all bug you find. Future plans • to be announced...

Thumperdevine 143 Posted October 26, 2020 These are really, really nicely done. Looking forward to getting a proper run with them. Looking forward to seeing the blasters with RAHG! Been a good couple of months for classy weapons packs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
red_spring 294 Posted October 26, 2020 Played around with it a bit, what can I say? It's great! 😁 Can't wait to see what's next, both here and in your cag/delta mod. I have an idea/suggestion, I don't know how doable it is or if it's possible but I'll put it here regardless. The MK48 is currently using the m240 mags from rhs and it looks a bit weird (also clips through the arm), since it's a first release I'm sure it may be a temporary solution and it'll eventually change when you update the mod. My question is: Would it be possible to make a custom mag or an ammo belt for it? Pictures for reference: As I said, just an idea/suggestion, not a request. In any case, keep up the good work! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fingolfin 1972 Posted October 27, 2020 I have released two small updates in the last hours: EXPS3 and Micro T1&2 aiming should be fixed/better now, Larue riser replaced the old ones on some models and there are now two ammo belts for the Mk48s. Also, I have darkened the HK416 “tanodised” textures. Unless any game breaking bugs are found, do not expect the next update to be so soon. 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure there's a 50-round nut sack in RHS already. Although it's possible it's in Toadie's MG weapons. These look beautiful! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think is was about a 100rnd mag that doesn't clip with the arm. Anyway, the ammo belts are a good stopgap for now (and have only minimal clipping). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you so much for the ammo belt, the MK48 looks so cool now! The clipping is minimal (I don't mind, it's not an issue) and it looks good. 😁 And yes, when I replied to the thread the idea was to have a mag that doesn't clip with the arm, I wasn't complaining about the mag size and all that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
da12thMonkey 1943 Posted October 27, 2020 23 hours ago, red_spring said: The MK48 is currently using the m240 mags from rhs and it looks a bit weird Mk48s do accept the side-mounting M240 50rnd cloth nutsacks and the old M60 100rnd cardboard box holder, using a side-mounting bracket https://imgur.com/a/9vitZ4e Same setup the M240 has but with a different mounting bracket AFAIK. It's just that since the Mk48 has the benefit of being side-ejecting rather then bottom-ejecting (like the M240 is), they were also able to make Minimi-style pouches that hang on the underside of the gun. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fingolfin 1972 Posted November 1, 2020 I've opened a discussion topic regarding weapon sounds on the workshop page. So, If you want me to keep the NIArms sounds or change them to RHS, you can vote. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gatordev 219 Posted November 1, 2020 I like your options. Sound is, of course, subjective, but I've enjoyed RHS unsuppressed sounds better, but Todie's suppressed (specifically his MK18 suppressed) sounds were just a bit louder and seemed "better" to me when comparing shooting the real thing. Hearing that sound on your suppressed 416's is a nice addition. Regardless, thanks for at least entertaining the idea. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fingolfin 1972 Posted November 6, 2020 Good news, I’ve managed to get the RHS grip system working on the Mk46/48s. So, you can enjoy different grip/bipod combos in black and camo variants. Also, I started making my attachments available for RHS weapons. As you can see, there will be specific models for each weapon type including switches and cables: 12 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vagrantauthor 174 Posted November 10, 2020 Hi, @fingolfin. I just want to say thank you for the work you are putting in with this mod and for sharing it with the community. This is top quality stuff and using it has rekindled my interest in playing Arma -- as they always do. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fingolfin 1972 Posted November 13, 2020 A small progress report: The attachments for the SCARs, M4 Block IIs, Mk18s, M249s and MP7s are done. I think I’ll leave it at that. Normal M4 are not really in SOCOM-use anymore. Maybe in a later update... The model files are quite big, and I don’t want to increase the file size too much. ... and a MP7 for @Hythloday_: I've also added a grip/bipod combo for the M110s, so I could reduce the number of weapon models. Don’t worry, all the classnames are still there (just hidden). Next step will be adding HK416s with Remington handguards. Regarding the sounds: You can still vote on the workshop page if I should change them or not. 8 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wsxcgy 1960 Posted November 14, 2020 I wouldnt bother with attachments for block 1 M4s either, unless you get a M3X model and the old insight dual switch for those block 1.5 setups. are the LA-5Bs alone going to be available on the standard M4s though? because that would be really nice at the very least.
