hellfish6 7 Posted February 18, 2003 I have a pair of DCUs sitting on a hangar in my closet. The BAS version of them looks dead-on accurate. They've even got the coloring of the suede desert boots right (which darken as sweat and other foul things like blood and oil collect on them). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N.o.R.S.u 0 Posted February 18, 2003 Isn't the Masterkey firing a bit too fast? You can fire it as fast as you can click left mouse button thus making it full auto shotgun. I have no idea of the real weapon though, but I assume it can't be fired so fast. About the M249 sound, I think the best sound I've heard is from Gimbal's ancient FN Minimi addon. I replaced BAS' sound with that and now it sounds much better. I'm not sure if this addon can be downloaded anymore, but I still have it. If someone wants the sound I can send it . Also the M240 sounds rather wierd, I replaced its sound with DoD .30cal sound, no idea if its accurate but sounds very beefy . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SelectThis 0 Posted February 18, 2003 SOPMOD = Special Operations Peculiar Modification. sopmod info The ACOG is a 4x32 scope. The Reflex is the no-magnification optic sights. SD = Supressed Version M14 Aimpoint is a M14 with the aimpoint optic sights (no magnifiation) the AN/PSC-5D Satcom is a Satelite Com unit. (radio) which functions just like the Nam Pack one (ie it's a weapon so you can test if a unit has it) Team Leader is a term used to designate the leader of a group whether it be a Fire Team of 4 or a squad of 12.

SelectThis 0 Posted February 18, 2003 Operator2 has the M14 equiped rather than the M4 You're referring to the classnames right? The editor names show what they are a bit better (eg BAS_DeltaOperator2 = Delta Operator M14) If you dont like any of the editor descriptions then use the "Soldier" or DES Soldier" units. These were put in to give a mission maker complete flexibility in terms of names not containing the load out of the unit. Mission maker can also put any patch they want on the shoulder, including but not limited to the ones we provided with the pack. SelectThis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
