Quote[/b] ]Par la mÄme occasion Wolf, les images de l'AMX me disent quelque chose ... tu ne sauras pas qui a fait ces screens par hasard ? ...

salut ranny boy !

J'ai deniché les images de la section "screenshots" , je n'ai aucune idée des réalisateurs de ces formidables screens que je remercie !

...And the Tiger screenshot is mine,

I dont really care if my screenshots are used but... either i should be asked before, OR, if not asked permission, at least then the author should be clearly credited... hmmm

Now, also, it's more than advised that when you use third party screenshots you dont link them directly to their source host without aknowledgement from said authors, this is gross, and can be damageable as bandwidth isnt necessarilly free or illimited. You post on your behalf you should host the pictures you post.

AND, BTW,

the tiger on the screenshot is my private version of it, it's resized, has some modified textures on some parts, the gunner and pilot animations are changed, the normals are polished from scratch and there's some custom materials on it... so this screenshot is not really representative of what's in the linked archive. Be warned...

FALSE !

Please don't make hasty conclusions on what you don't know.

BizaroÄde is an OFrP Partner, but if he's working on it's addons, it's only for himself and not for OFrP.

et que fous RAPTOR du mod ONU ?

ce n'est pas la fin du monde bon sang...le type s'excite pour un rien...

Il vous faudrait un peu plus de generosité du coeur les gars...ça craint...

ok I've done a small mistake sorry, I've confused OFrP members and their partners

[BipBip 0]

The same. Raptor from ONU MOD works for himself, not for OFrP.

[the wolf 0]

ah sorry i've thought that RAPTOR from ONU mod works for you...

[mr burns 132]

seem to be exact the same versions as i downloaded back in april

don´t get me wrong i´m not complaining.. at least we have a tiger

[calm_terror 0]

[ExtracTioN 0]

Before I say anything negative, good job on the addons!

I encountered a 'bug' while testing them out.

(Could be just me, or my settings-I hope so for the sake of the addons)

If this is an isolated problem on my part please excuse this post.

The rotors on the helicopters are on 'rotating' animation even if its parked.

Is this something you have noticed and/or fixing it as we speak.

I know that this addon is not yet complete, but just giving some input from devout OFP fan.

I would like to see the units 'side up' with the same side. In the final version. As others mentioned here.

i.e.-West,Resistance. Which ever side no matter as long as they are on the same 'team' so to speak.

Keep up the great work gentlemen/sir.

[the wolf 0]

thanks for reporting bugs 868 , I'll tell all that to Bizaroide

L and P raketa is on each wing. I only tried the firste Tiger, but there is only one rocket-pod on it. Should place both L and P raketa on that pod. Right now half of the rockets appear from the TOW-lookalike rack on the left wing.

And like others have said, the transparent rotor-texture is always present.

I thought the Tiger was to be more agile than this. I'm under the impression its more agile than a Cobra. Maybe reduce the overall mass a little.

Other than that, a very sweet chopper indeed.

Would be nice with a english readme too.

Any chance of the SA 321B since it is the most relevant version for troop transport?

Will future versions of the SA321G be armed for the ASW role (with COC torpedos?)

Also the B version is supposed to seat 38 troops currently Bizaroide's model seats about 20.

On the plus side it does look really nice, and the placement of the door is excellent since the troops actually get out of it.

I didnt get much use out of the 20mm armed version so I cant comment.

The tiger is pretty cool, I really like the "silent" rotor sounds, haven't actually gotten a chance to try the AMX-30, the other thing I tried was the SF soldier, which really needs some sort of mission specific equipment (I presume recce, intelligence gathering and target acquisition by the ghillie hood?) just somehting to make him stand out (figuratively).

Bizzaroide is "MIA", the odds to see these (one year old) betas updated are quite low ...

Well, guess we'll have to wait until MMP or BW-mod-remnants publish their Tiger...

the other thing I tried was the SF soldier, which really needs some sort of mission specific equipment (I presume recce, intelligence gathering and target acquisition by the ghillie hood?)  just somehting to make him stand out (figuratively).

An Intelligence team from the 13eme RDP is composed by 5 to 8 parachute soldiers.

For the 5-men team :

- Officer (MP5SD)

- NCO, second-in-command (MP5SD)

- Radioman (MAC50 and ERC9200)

- First and Second Observer (all with FAMAS F1)

All of them are equiped with NVG, and eventualy binoculars for the officer, the NVO and the first observer.

Their main task is to stealthly gather intelligence about the enemy inside own enemy's territory from a well camouflaged hide. They are not meant to use their weapons. Using his gun means mission failure.

Thus, a kind of mission where it's hard to create and have fun.

In rare cases, they may be able to process in sabotage.

One Bug that I have with these addons is that in the AMX-30 tanks I have invisible crew positions. Inside there is nothing. I can only see the crew but no model in there. Does everyone else have this bug? I think the AMX-10 had the bug also. Aside from that, from the outside these tanks look stunning.

The helicopters also were pretty nice although I also agree that the Tiger could be a little bit more agile kinda like the BIS Cobra. I still haven't tried the troops yet.

I REALLY hope he lets my mod team use his Merkava Mk4. We already have a pretty good Mk2 that's ready to roll, but we're badly needing a Mk4 and his are pretty good.

[bonko the sane 2]

all the helicopters are great, just changed the biz_air class to resistance side, added the Ofpr pilot (one of best around) and specified AiRateofFire on the 30mm cannon , its perfect now

but the Super Frelon needs an Icon :\

If no updated versions are released im going to add flares to the helis (for personal use of course).

One of the Merkavas is bugged as hell, in 1st person you cant see tank when inside, should be simple to fix as the other Merkava models are OK, and all the AMX suffer this problem as well.

The config on the 13RPD units is binarized btw.

To nice Teg, don't worry man , I'll speak to Bizaroide, but he's on holiday now

Last screens for the incoming LECLERC tank

- new specialities : engineer, special forces, scouts, laser designators, rescuemen

A fairly well done Copy-'n-Paste !

As a matter of facts, maybe the french paradox   , the near-released "special forces", as scouts are only special troops belonging to regulars regiments (SAED in a new developping concept in infantry regiments, GCP in any parachute regiments,...) or special purpose equiped troops for assault or recon.

There will be two type of Rescuemen, Armée de l'Air's CPA-30 for RESCO-CSAR missions (save jet pilots in hostile land) and ALAT's (Ground Forces Light Aviation) PRB for IMEX (immediate rescu of grounded choppers' crewmen), standing for Immediate Extraction.

Far later, in another update, would ne released the true Special Force belonging to the COS (Special Operations' Command) with, for exemple, 1er RPIMa's, CPA10's or Commando de Marine's troops.

wohoo i'm belgian and i download the tiger and the amx ;)

what about a belgian army mod ?

Me, Lone and Jan are working on it... We might release 'something' soon if everything keeps going on schedule

[miles teg 1]

Just wanted to let you all know that the Lost Brothers Mod team has fixed up the Merkava Mk4 giving it proper IDF colors (tan), and a fixed rear sideskirt grill without the alpha texture transparency problems. Other textures are also improved including new wheels and more detail added in places like the rear door. The driver station proxy is also fixed now.

In addition to the model fixes, it now has .cpp settings to reflect the massive armor on that tank (it is quite possibly the most heavily armored tank in the world), has new engine sounds, new gun sounds, new turret sounds, and new ammo including the LAHAT ATGM missile that is fired from the barrel of the Mk4 in real life.

Assuming we get the go-ahead from Bizaroid to release it, it'll be part of our upcoming addon pack#2.

Its ready to go, but as we're waiting for permission on a few models from several addon makers, we're adding a few things and polishing up older addons in the pack.

At any rate, not to steal the thread, Bizaroid did a fantastic job on the Merkava tank models especially the Mk4 which is a difficult tank to model due to the odd turret shape.

I'm looking forward to the OFrP team and other mod teams fixing up his other French addons if Bizaroid is too busy to do this. He really did a great job on these addons overall and they just need some fixing up.

new screens

this is the incoming vabT20 done by Horrido from The OFrP team

It's a french DCA armored unit like the Vulcan for USA or Shilka for URSS

[miles teg 1]

Very nice! It looks fantastic! Although only one cannon for AA? Does it have radar? At any rate, I think it would make a great anti-personnel/anti-APC vehicle.

I'm looking forward to seeing it in game along with the LeClerc.

Keep up the great work guys!
