Hawks BRDM-1 w/ AT-3 Sagger

[Cpt. FrostBite 0]

Cpt. FrostBite:

the MCAR files of the AT3 BRDM are not correctly configured:

I wonder how could they fire without exploding ...

and they go the wrong direction: that's one of the reason

you were hit even if you were out of the line of fire.

Anyway friendly fire is not contemplated in MCAR (AI safety reasons ...),

you were hit because you weren't the same side of the firing

unit.

If more than few people wish friendly fire to happen, we can include

it in the next MCAR release: it will lessen calculations too ...

ok than. That explaines some of it.

And about friendly fire; never mind

I would like a realistic friendly fire which varies with the skill level of the unit and the amount of units on the battlefiels. This either completely impossible or way to difficult to do.

I had no luck detecting if Res where friendly or not using script commands, none of the usual commands appear to work? So there is no way of finding out what side the mission editor has set, Res friendly to. The only work around I could think of, was to check a global variable set by the mission designer.

That's not a bad idea... Something like MCAR_ResFriendly?

I doubt that friendly fire will be removed from MCAR, as that would mean that no missiles with friend-or-foe recognition could be built. We may build a couple of guidance codes with 'realistic' friendly fire built in.

I guess I'll be contacting Hawk then...

Although I first have to find some kind of contact details. Anyone know where Hawk can be reached?

Actually, a skill based system would be perfectly possible, as you can easily check the skill level of a given unit, increasing or decresing the friendly fire probability depending on the skill.

But we're not going to be doing anything like this for a while. After the release of the next BETA, the BETA: 2.5, we'll be looking at what goes in the next version, and it's possible that some kind of friendly fire system will make it in.

Hopefully, there will also be an update for this addon fairly soon...

EDIT: Found contact details for HAWK. I also found that the of.fpp.pl link contained the word 'BETA', perhaps explaining the texture issues/ bugs.

Well the tag had Hawk on it but was no documantaion with the addon period. The models were from Spetznaz mod, one model from their BRDM-1 beta that seems to have been run through the ODEL exploiter seeing how many glitches in the textures and other things. My guess somebody leaked a alpha. Or Hawk was bored. Kinda unlike him to release something this buggy, he is usually very very good at nothaving something this buggy released. Something is very odd here...

Hmm indeed.

Realy? i will contact Manfred or and Stacker for check it that

[tankieboy 0]

it looks like the Spetsnaz mod BRDM in 4 versions, unarmed, DSHK, AGS-17, and AT-3.

pretty cool. keep those MCAR addons coming!!

grab it here:http://of.fpp.pl

Cant find it?

The link on that website was provided in the news section from yet another site (which appears to be offline). The original link there doesn't work, and the addon isn't under Hawk's completed addon section.

Well who ever made it it fits some of my needs, so thanks for dredging it up Miss_Cleo . And thank you for providing a link Tomislav.

Hmmm, gives me some ideas also But I think other people have the same idea BRDM-sagger

Eh best to wait for the Spez Naz ones, Hawk bothers creating CTI friendly verssions out of the polish/russain ones that just came out.
