Gosh this topic its going fubar

@ NZXSHADOWS, I haven't read anything about it, but are you working with Fischkopp in marine addons, or at list cooperating?

I don't think its a bad thing Fischkopp making this marines, I'm looking forward for their release, it will give us more choice, but what BlackDog said its true, they should follow the same line as other marine addons, not saying they not now, just make sure they are nicelly balanced with the rest of the marines addons, that's all.

It should apply to any other addon released so far, that's where we all get a bit lost, like ORCS stuf, they are really good, and I love their work, but to play with them I have to make sure I'm using west and East from ORCS, if I use BAS for example it won't be balanced.

Many people call the addon makers to try to get a standard on configurations, but we all have diferent ideas on what a standard should be like, like JAM, RHS don't like the values from JAM so they make their own ones, for example.

DKM addons configurations are very different to the ones from another mod, and so on.

We will never get a standard in addons creation because addon makers and mod makers do this stuff for funn in their spare time to what they would like to have ingame and how they would like to have it working in game.

Nice stuff and all, Fischkopp, make it however you want, if they are half as good as your HMMWVs then they will be excelent.

Good job.

Regards.

Oh shit, I drooled all over my keyboard because of that picture

Looking extremely good.

Looks awesome

The LAV is looking exellent indeed. I think it kicks butt that your leaving non essential features off. Working doors serve no purpose and only clog the action menu with unneeded junk.

Actualy i think their quite nice, atleast with the Northstar LAV beta, we can see the interior of the LAV or see the soldiers sitting in cargo and it only adds 2 actions to the action menu wich wont bother you if you are siting in cargo of a LAV, plus they can be used to make intros and cutscenes where we wont see soldiers disembarking out of a APC whose doors are closed, i know Fischkopp doesnt like openable doors on his vehicals but you might wanna check op. NS LAV and then tell me if it isnt cool, its just the same has BAS blackhawks and pavies, i hope FischK will change his mind if he ever decides to make a transport helicopter .

indeed very nice work Fish

@Heatseeker: If i should merge my Cargo lod with the main Lod the modell would have 10.000 Polys (main LOD about 5.000 and the Cargo LOD 5.000 too). Too much. Really too much. But ... I thinking about to make the LAV-C2 opneable for commandpost cutscenes.

Btw i´m finished the cargo. Now i should able to present you the ingame pics of the AT version soon.

Well, from what you have already created and showned us you definetly know what your doing there, keep up the good work Fisch, cant wait to see more of your work .

[Cpt. FrostBite 0]

That sig of yours makes me sick

It's too small to any details, but just big enough to make me drool

The island texture also looks good. Is that Tonal or the Conflict Zone Mindanao island?

[FischKopp 0]

@Cpt.Frostbite: It´s not Tonal and it´s not really CZM. I´ve made a custom Island (split into south and north part) and for the isalnd and CZM I create jungle plants if I ge a leck on interest on doing the other stuff (now LAV Series). But the islands are at the moment clean - missing objects.

More or less I need someone to finish the islands cos i´m more or less busy with the USMC stuff/objects.

ohh i forget something for you to make you droll.

Jungle Fever

This are only objects placed with ingame editor

I hope Fischkopp realises that once he's made his woodland marines there will be the inevitable "are you gonna make desert marines aswell"......Not that I'd ever do that of course..

[FischKopp 0]

Why the heck everone wynts desert units. For me it´s a hype caused of actually events. For my part I planed something that only need Woodland soldiers/vehicles/planes and so on (enviroment).

Look on the Pic and you get your answer why I don´t create desert units.

[mr reality 0]

It's no differant than wanting snow units or special forces.I actually prefer the desert enviroments as there more open and i dont want them because of current events as you can't fully recreate the type of warfare thats going on in Iraq at the moment with the OFP engine limitations.I was actually joking when i suggested that but i see youi have no sence of humour...bye the way that was also a joke... ..keep up the good work ..

also it kind of limits your units to a certain amount of people.as there are alot (as you said yourself) of people who want desert themed units..

[FischKopp 0]

... but I have often said that I make only Woodland units and nevetheless the people ask if their will be some desert units and that get on my nerves.

[Cpt. FrostBite 0]

Recent event like the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan make people look for desert units. If there would have been a war in the jungle, people would want jungle units.

Hell, after the movie 'Tears from the sun' people were asking for a the Seahawk and seals as seen in the movie (seals now under construction by Jackel326).

I personally like woodland better. The woods and all just make for a very dynamci gameplay and I think all the green looks better than the al that sand. Desert combat is no fun at all unless it's a tank battle or if it's done on a very high detail desert map (not here yet). The OFP engien limitations and PC limitations make that a high detail desert map with trenches and all are just not possibe. So the flat desert remains flat and boring. Untill engine and CPU allow for a high-detail urban combat, desert infantry warfare sucks.

Jungle fighting is also very interesting, but also very demanding on the CPU. And no real big and good jungle island has yet been released (with a realistic jungle forest).

So woodland is my choise. Nice landscapes and a very nice terrain; hills, woods and all are possible and make for good gameplay.

Snow is very interseting and offers the same as woodland, only more white. I love snow!

So just continue working on woodland units, fishkopp. Most islands are still mainly woodland, so people still seem to want woodland units. I know I do.

I started loving desert theme ever since i tried the Afghanistan beta map and quicky searched for all the desert addons i could get my paws on, i would like jungle but it just doesnt work for OPF and woods is something we had from the start. I think the desert Afghanistan and Gulf/Iraq themes fit better with OPF, that is my opinion and the answer to the question.

So woods and desert are both equaly important for me .
