killswitch 19 Posted November 6, 2003 Ooh! Nu Brads! Me happy. A word of caution/tip to anyone out there doing a new Bradley - the original BIS Bradley has a rather serious config bug. Here's the deal: The BIS Bradley inherits from the M113 class. Looking inside the M113 config, we see, among other things, this: <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> ... irScanRangeMin=0; irScanRangeMax=0; ... and the Bradley is configured thusly: <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> ... class Bradley: M113 ... and it never restores those properties to the same values that almost all other BIS Tank-based vehicles have (BMP,BMP-2, T55,T72,T80, M60, M1A1 with the Shilka excluded). What do they have? Well... <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> ... class Tank { ... irScanRangeMin=500; irScanRangeMax=4000; ... } Can you say "Uh-oh". Now you know why the BIS Bradley in many ways is a useless death trap, blind as a bat. And, on a more general note, stop using the likes of irScanRange=900 in your tanks/APC:s. Use the irScanRangeMin and irScanRangeMax values and leave the middle ages of CWC 1.46 configs. Also, if your new Bradley inherits from the BIS Bradley, remember that at least a minimal requiredAddons={bradley}; is needed for a working addon. Eagerly awaiting properly configured, good-looking BFV variants. Greets! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rbeni12 0 Posted November 6, 2003 Ok, kids, here are some screenshots of the progress of the M2's. Â Desert version is 95% complete and I just started the US/Nato camo version.Images.... I'm discussing with rudedog about the U.S. woodland version of the M2a2 Bradly... I made one with backblast and others screenshots soon... Â ***Update November 17:34 (16:35 GMT+1) Here's the pic U.S. ARMY Woodland camo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rbeni12 0 Posted November 6, 2003 I have found something on Rudedog's page: an M2a2/a3 3D Model THE LINK And could you give me a direct link... If we are using a new model , not BIS ones , what is totaly protected. We could make more extra things. And for the M6 Linebacker , we could make it too... It would be very usefull in Support missions. rbeni12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rudedog 0 Posted November 6, 2003 Ahh, those are just pics I found on the Facets web site a long time ago. They are 3d models used by the military in simulators. Â They are just there for reference. Â No need to get all excited. Here is the link to the Facets site Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â No need to get all excited.Here is the link to the Facets site The model request doesn't work... Do you have those models? They are good , I think... We need to modify them..But would be good in Later versions, or contact BAS to allow of the use of the M2a2 in their Desert pack... Â The facets3d's M2A2 looks almost the same as the BIS ones , maybe they edited from that. No? Â Â PS: I didn't worked.. Can someone tell me how can I contact Ramo (remo who made the mlod tool with FilpeR) ? or FlipeR? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miles teg 1 Posted November 7, 2003 Well... if BAS is already making one, I think you are better off just assisting them in finishing up their M2A2 because if they release theirs and it has a more accurate model, then your addon (if it's just a retextured BIS model) will likely get forgotten. Â Â As was stated before (and as the pictures show), the M2A2 looks a heck of a lot different then the original M2 (the BIS model). Â So hopefully BAS will let you finish up their model (if you choose to do so). Â Otherwise unless you get ahold of the program used to DePBO BIS models (in order to add the extra armor panels to it), then it will likely be forgotten once BAS releases their M2A2.

So we could add new things like "open backdoor" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whisperFFW06 0 Posted November 7, 2003 A plea : plz do NOT make it too powerfull. Munger's proposition of a 2 RPG shots hits from certain angle, and only 1 from other I see fit perfectly for the A2 version (I saw reports of both bradley surviving (in bad shape) RPG shots and destroyed by RPG, not completely, but utterly useless after being hit). If possible to ensure that the crew survive 1 shot, it would be ok And use the manualControl thing (I don't remember right how we did for Eryx, but that's exactly what BIS did with the Carl Gustav : auto-guided when in rookie mode, manual guided when in veteran mode, in fact it's an option in the difficulties settings). Well, anyway I'm pretty sure you know everything about this Just a reminder ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And for the armour values , it's been fixed ,so it gots destroyed with only 1 PRG, or totaly damaged.. (the crew get's out of the tank) rbeni12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted November 8, 2003 Ok youve impressed me now  You should definitely join the Gulf War mod , your texture work ooks good better then the ones theyve made so far , your look realistic. I hope they get released soon too... We can always talk Last stuff of ours that got released was last year...December I think. Since then the only stuff anyone outside the mod has seen is screenshots (pretty much, I know there are exceptions). And screenshots can do whatever you want them to do...

That's a promise and will be released , not as BAS addons it depends on Rudedog...  I'm still searcing for the MLOD of the M2A2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rudes M2a2 looks very realistic with light camo and nice lightned texture. Would be nice to have this used in your MOD too since i like to see integrity in mods in such things.
