Ironsight 1 Posted April 25, 2005 Looks good Miles, good to see the AN-12 being fixed up and used by Lost Brothers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bucket man 2 Posted April 25, 2005 I have a question Miles: Is the missile on AT-3 disappearing when fired? Also when did egyptians start using the An-12? Before Yom Kippur war? Anyway they both look absolutely stunning and I hope to see your next pack soon! Edit: You bastards! Is that an egyptian F-16 on the backround? Awesome!

RTR_Commander 0 Posted April 25, 2005 I know the An-12 was used by the Egyptians for a long time but not sure the exact dates. Some nice pics tho: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bucket man 2 Posted April 25, 2005 Nice pictures RTR_Commander, thanks! If I would have to guess they started to use An-12 almost immediatly after it was deployed by soviet army. Now their mainstay transport plane is C-130? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-IDF-Hayal 0 Posted April 28, 2005 Now their mainstay transport plane is C-130? Yes. Now Egypt has 19 C130H. But they also use other transport planes. For example they have 5 DHC-5D "Bufallow, 1 "Super King Air", 3 "Golfstream 3",1 "Golfstream 4", 3 Dasso "Falcon 20". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miles teg 1 Posted April 28, 2005 Yeah, the AN-12 was used up until probably the mid or late 1980's. Its possible some may have still been around even later. But now yeah they have been replaced by the C130s. We just stuck them in because its always possible they may have some in mothballs for emergency usage. Also they were used later then the periods are upcoming historical packs will cover so I thought it would be good to have it in our addon pack#3. Plus it just looks really cool. As for the AT-3's, right now the missiles don't disappear when firing them, but we will try to fix that problem. Oh...and yeah, our Egyptians now have F-16C fighter bombers in various configurations. They also will have the IL-28 Beagle medium bombers in various configs. We still need to find someone to help us with doing an ECM script for our Electronic Warfare variant of the Beagle.

bucket man 2 Posted April 28, 2005 I thought egyptians never got new Il-28 Beagles after IAF bombed most of them during the Suez crisis in 1956 and others were flown to safety all around middle-east. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-IDF-Hayal 0 Posted April 28, 2005 Bucket man is wright. Beagles dont serve in egyptian air forces already for alot of years... I think they were made as a part of a hystorical addon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miles teg 1 Posted April 29, 2005 Yeah it is mainly for historical reasons. Â I believe it is the the TU-16 that they are still using for maritime surveillance and ELINT missions. Â But the Beagles were around for quite a while and definitely past the 1950's. Â I have info about them at home but I'm at school now so I can't look at my bookmarked pages on the Egyptian airforce. Â Nevertheless it doesn't mean a mission maker can't make fictional missions in which the Beagle is used after being taken out of mothballs. Â It actually still is a rather good medium bomber with a respectable combat record. Â Edit: Ok...it looks like actually Egypt STILL DOES use the IL-28 Beagle for ECM missions at least according to this website: http://www.scramble.nl/mil/1/egypt/orbat.htm Its also possible that these variants may carry other weapons as its not uncommon for ECM aircraft to carry various types of anti-radar missiles.

-IDF-Hayal 0 Posted May 7, 2005 I have a question. Do you have any relations with other IDF modes? I mean not only OperationFlashpoint mods. For example a mod for Battlefield- IDF-Fight for Independence. They have alot of good stuff...maybe it will help you??? They make very good textures for their models...

We tried working with the BF IDF-Fight For Indepence mod, but we never got anything from them. I think I sent some stuff to them though.

1in1class 0 Posted May 14, 2005 wow man love ur work just keep it up man keep it up soon as they get out for dl ya im dl cant wait Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-IDF-Hayal 0 Posted June 3, 2005 Very nice stuff. It's interesting..if anyone have any news from Vixer? If i'm not mistaken he was creating a Zelda's pack for the mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miles teg 1 Posted June 3, 2005 Yeah, for right now he halted work on the Zeldas, however he did give us what he had made so far. Â I forgot the model but, its one of the Zeldas with the big armored turret. Â However the turret is still untextured and the hatch still needs some work as well as the gun position. Â We'll try to get it into addon pack#3. Â This version won't be an especially effective one in OFP however because its gun traverse will be limited and sadly we can't simulate the multi-gun positions in the observation tower section or in the shielded rear comparment with the roof open. Â It mainly will be in there just to add a little bit of realism especially on the Gaza map that we're working on. At any rate, work on the Addonpack#3 release is winding up. Can't really give a date, but right now we're just fixing a few bugs here and there and writing up all the readmes. Â Our Sinai update is currently being revamped a bit more as we realized that Suez City had to be heavily redone as in real life the place is a dump and is just a grungy refueling port thats been destroyed and rebuilt twice. Â However our Sinai resort towns of Dahab and Sharm Al-Sheikh will be pretty. Â Also the Israeli city of Eliat is now in the map. But I have better news. Â The Lost Brothers Arab Insurgent/Civilian pack is just about ready for release. Â We just added some rock/bottle/molatov cocktail throwers in yesterday and I just have to run a quick test when I get home today to see if they all work ok. Â Also I need to finish up on a few updates of my mission for the pack in order to improve the mission a little more. Â It will feature some nice movie cutscenes, and suicide bombers as the US forces attempt to pacify the population of the Islamic Republic of Nogova after kicking out General Al-Guba and installing a new government. Shortly after the release I will release some LoBo based missions using this pack and our IDF and Egyptian units. Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-IDF-Hayal 0 Posted June 3, 2005 Very nice news I can't wait already... MilesTeg can you post any pictures of new Zelda, pls... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miles teg 1 Posted June 4, 2005 Well, there's not much to take any pictures of. Our Zeldas are all basically the same except that we fixed bugs from the last Zelda pack. You know we released already a Zelda pack before right? If not its over on ofp.info. But as for that new Zelda, its just that one model and the new parts are totally untextured so there's really not much to see. When we get it textured, I'll be sure to post some screenshots.

1in1class 0 Posted June 4, 2005 man i love this mod keep it up cant wait for it to be out still playing ur old addons pack#2 love it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miles teg 1 Posted June 16, 2005 Ah...a little bad news....terrorist pack release has been delayed due to a fatal CTD bug in the rock/bottle throwers. Â We're trying to figure out whats causing it. Â Hopefully we can figure it out. Â If not we'll just probably use Gimbal's old script and no Molatov cocktails or we'll just take all the rocks/bottles/cocktails out completely. Â But in some good news, we've always had a standard Uzi carbine in our weapons pbo file but it was never used on a unit because it didn't sit properly in their hands...well Calm Terror fixed it up a bit and now it works well and the barrel isn't pointing into the shooters left hand. Â Stuff left is new LOD's for Egyptian troops, new arab headdresses for the Frontiers Corps, and still a bit more work on the BTR-60 thats got some missing textures when it gets blown up for some reason. Â With the IDF stuff we just need a little more work on the landrovers and snipers and thats about it I think. Anyways, here's some pics of some S-13 commandos with Uzis: Â Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could you post a unit list of new stuff to come in LoBo pack 3? Better yet fill out the blanks in my list Egypt: Modernized MiG-21BIS F-16C T-34 SA-2 Guideline Jordan: Urutu APC was it?
