Marine assault pack

[Mountain 0]

Well thats just the Helo portion of it, a Full MEU is:

16 LAV-25s

8 81mm Mortars

8 TOW systems

8 Javelin Missile Launchers

15 AAV7s

6 155mm Howitzers

4 M-1A1 Main Battle Tanks

63 HMMWVs

12 CH-46E Medium Lift Assault Helicopters

4 CH-53E Heavy Lift Assault Transport Helicopters

3 UH-1N Transport Helicopters

and 4 AH-1W Attack Helicopters

6 AV-8B Harrier Jets

2 KC-130s

and it is built around a Reinforced Marine Battalion Landing Team. All in all its about 2200 men & women, not including the ARG it is a part of and it's the smallest component of the MAGTF.

As for the Phrogs, the 46's are the Medium lift helos and can carry a cargo of about 5,000 pounds whereas the 53's can carry about 8,000lbs.

You should look this kind of bug to fix

I was fooling around in editor and suddenly i began to get these errors.

[joltan 0]

Yes, I have this error, too. Might be a V1.96 problem?

[Landwarrior87 0]

all of a sudden now i get TACTHeartbeat errors.. and my game CTD... anyone know whats causing this?

[r1c0cH3T 0]

I don't have this message... Try to remember which addon you added before you got this message.

[@cero 0]

Are you using any of the modified bin mods?

[Gollum1 0]

I'm not getting any of that, even when playing with and without FDF and 1.96, must be some new addon that you all have downloaded and is conflicting with MAP?

[nubbin 0]

just a suggestion and I have no idea if this will change anything. But I am using the tac events file from the MAP that the ECP team modified. I used to get errors like this, but recently I haven't . I dont' know if its coincidence but it might be worth trying. I know the new WGL tac events file was giving me grief. So I swithched to the one ECP has and haven't looked back.

I played with fresh, clean Resistance after formating my comp (no other addons) and the version I used was 1.95.

[gunterlund 0]

havent read through the hold thread but I just had an alpha1 squad take out a bmp2 with rifle fire. Are the small arrms a little over power. Blew the vehicle with m16 and saw fire.

[ni-mh 0]

dont know if someone mentioned this before but does anyone know how to apply wound textures to the head of the units? its apparently lacking them

[m21man 0]

Holes will appear in the goggles of some units if they're shot in the head. As for adding basic facial wound textures, play around with the config .

[Landwarrior87 0]

well with all the new addons coming out now.. personally i wouldnt put anything new up against something BIS made.. thier just not on the same level.. try downloading the new Russian APC pack... great textures and just wayy better than BIS's.. see how those go up against m16's and saws. dont change this great pack to make even with old BIS addons no one hardly ever uses anymore.

The mod the marines destroyed with rifle fire was the realistic armour pack. Cant remember who did the mod but in the armour listing the vehicle begins with -R like -R bmp2.

I belive it was Aaron Ash who diid the Realistic Armor series.

[munger 25]

Yup. Aaron Ash released three smaller packs: realistic M1A1/T80, realistic M2A2/BMP2 and realistic AH-64/AH-1. He then released a full pack with realistic versions of all the BIS vehicles. The prefix for these was -R as you say.

those are the ones. The Marine pack eats them alive.

I love this pack! I hope to see them allso fully JAM HD compliant, so I can have long lasting firefights.

[hellfish6 7]

I'm pretty sure that they ARE JAM compliant. They just don't come equipped with the default JAM magazines. You can still add them in the mission editor.

[Cpt. FrostBite 0]

Yes, they are JAM compatible.

I was going to say; "read the read-me, that's what it's for", but that is a battle I lost a long time ago.... Where will we end up with this community *sigh*

[Smokki 0]

I know they are JAM compatible, but it's too much work to change ammo and weapons every time so if they are going to make patch i hope there will be JAM units in editor so i can just click and put them in missions.

[cornhelium 0]

I don't think they are compatible with JAM -HD mags. If you have the c8x_russjam.pbo and c8x_usmcjam.pbo installed from the JAM compatablility addon, you can arm your soldier with, say the JAM compatible M16A4 with:

removeAllWeapons this; this addWeapon "C8XJAMM16"; this addMagazine "JAM_W556_30BHDmag"

Digital Grenade's online classnames guide shows the JAM compatible classname as JAM_W556_30Bmag. Sure enough, if you arm your Marine with the following line, you'll have a JAM 5.56 clip in your M16 when you start, and can pick up the same magazine from JAM men in the mission:

removeAllWeapons this; this addWeapon "C8XJAMM16"; this addMagazine "JAM_W556_30Bmag"

But, you can't pick up JAM -HD mags and you can't arm the C8XJAMM16JAM with the corresponding -HD mag, so this line just leaves you with an empty M16A4:

removeAllWeapons this; this addWeapon "C8XJAMM16"; this addMagazine "JAM_W556_30BHDmag"

Maybe there's another classname for a HD compatible C8XJAMM16JAM, but it's not listed on DG's classnames guide. Can the MAP guys comment? Any plans to add JAM -HD compatibilty, or am I just being dense?

Beaut units anyway - better said late than never

Cheers,

Corhelium

no one's heard anything about the booster pack?? Snipers?? more Force Recon and Spetz Nats?? not that this pack is getting boring.. just some things to spice it up would be better. The Variety of weapons are just unbelivable.. i still dont think ive played with every single variant... just some things i really want in an update.. (Grenadiers/FireTeam Leaders/Squad Leaders w/ Helmets). keep the other ones.. just add another with the marpat helmet..just kinda unreal to be doing all this action fighting in a "HAT" Force Recon Sniper weapon would be nice.. like a .50 with a big ass high tec scope.. and please please please force recon in desert textures.. as well for the Spetz Natz.. after that, EVERYTHING is perfect, oh yeah and fix the desert medic. just odd.. entire desert marpat team with a woodland medic. (desert one doesnt work) which brings me to perhaps a Force Recon medic?

i know im sounding so demanding and ungrateful.. im not its just this is my favorite pack out of the entire OFP... now that were out of the Delta/Ranger era this has been very exciting... lookin forward to this booster pack whenever you get it out..
