LSR Addons

PJ's (some other AF SOF may be in there). Pretty much Custom M4's. It might be cool if u gave the COCSS swim script to PJ's too. They do a hell of alot of swimming in thier training.

What I would do (again, jus my opinion). If these are gonna be PJ's, Id do a few things to make em gucci First of all, assuming these are PJ's, for when they are actually on the ground doing fighting and rescuing, id have their regular helmet be the light kevlar looking helmet that you see in most pics...that or the old school Pro-Tec (I use em when I skydive, and they have saved my melon a few times). Theyd also have some sort of body armor with trauma plate. And of course give em assault vests and knee and elbow pads. Now for the kicker. All the gear would be scripted. If they were gonna do a HALO, youd dial in the script, and *BOOM*, theyd be in halo gear with chute, chute harness, ruck, helmet and O2 system. Once they landed (scripted via altitude detection script.) all the HALO gear would come off and the regular stuff would go on via script. Also in regards to the pack, Id have instead of the old ALICE packs, id have them carry something like a Blackhawk Industries trauma pack.

It is my humble opinion that the day of the ALICE pack died somewhere in the early 90's. . Again, this is just my humble opinion.

LASER, mad props to you buddy, youre doing a fantastic job. Whatever you finally decide to crank out is your choice, and will undoubtably be top-notch in any case. Im sure every1 else feels the same way. Keep up the good work, buddy.

That is a killer idea with the scripts.

Laser your work, as always

Why not give the PJ's MICH helmets? PASGT is gradually getting phased out.

[Laser 0]

Ok. Glad you love these pics, the units pictured are surely subject to some cosmetic changes. I'll show the references i used to create the HALO jumpers (once i find them on my HD... it's quite a mess these days).

Now to the gear question... there also will be "regular" ParaRescue operators with normal ground gear. Plus, i have made some small scripts which are used to switch HALO gear and normal "ground gear" for the guys on the screenshots, this feature will be present in the release version and most likely will be automated (once you land, the HALO gear would be removed and ground ops gear added). I've seen PJs using these HALO helmets in ground ops on the pics, so i think that's OK for some of my units to use them.

@ShadowNX:

Don't worry, mate, our talk's subject remains in effect. i'm working on it. Need some ref pics though.

[lifeguard532 0]

YAY. i CANNOT wait

Kudos, Laser.

Ya know, if youre still lookin fer information, or just want a great read, there is a great book called None Braver; U.S. Air Force Pararescuemen in the War on Terrorism. Its a great read with tons of info on gear, training, organization. ETC. It also gaves a great account of a 3 man PJ team that did a "hop and pop" (sort of a really low HALO) into a minefield in Afghanistan in order to save a wounded SAS soldier. Great read

[lifeguard532 0]

You know, come to think of it........

The Pavehawk is a SAR platform, along with the Pavelow, yet none of these addons in OFP have a functional rescue hoist. I think it would be cool if you could put a wounded person in one of those wire rescue baskets, and have a pavehawk or pavelow hoist 'em up. I know its possible, cause theres another SAR helo addon that uses a rescue hoist script. hmmm.

are you going to modify the HALO oxygen maks so it looks more "in shape" than how it is currently. To me it looks a bit streched out than the real thing. Thx for listening and good luck on this and future ventures

[4 IN 1 0]

bas stop working on ofp addons(and locked them up so others cant "took their work"......one thing i didnt like) so forget about any of the H-60 till someone make another better one for us(or do it yourself)

in-fact i think all those script should be update i.e.

i didnt like that you cant move even slightly when you are fast roping/ ladder extarcting in BAS chopper, but i love its fast action, i like the OFrP way better, but with that roping speed we might be already dead when we are on the ground, bla bla bla, but it is be too off topic for here

[Shinbusan 0]

My small request. In fact to any addon maker. Please, do Laser Designator. There is one in WGL and one in BAS, but it would by great if someone would publish stand alone one or Laser would add it to his future weapon pack (as his stuff is used by many).

[mcbean 0]

it would be great if Laser made some regular infantry or Marines... great present for xmas

Theres already enough marine soldier addons. We need some regular US infantry.

[RabidStoat 39]

Why US troops all the time? how about some of the other western - or eastern - armies for a change? With Laser behind them any army would look great!

[soul_assassin 1750]

and how about stop with the bald demands? What you have to understand is that any addonmaker does WHAT he wants and enjoys ultimately for himself but is kind enough to share with everyone. I think the man can decide himself what he wants to do next eh?

[RabidStoat 39]

LOL It wasn't a deamnd, just going with the general flow

[Shinbusan 0]

Eeee. These are ideas. I know it must be boring and even frustrating to hear al the time we want US regulars (even if we really want ) but I asked for Laser Designator, and I asked any talented addon maker. And there is real need for it, as we cannot take it out from BAS weapon pack (license limit). But if Laser do not like to do it, no problem. I just want to give some idea what is easy to do (I guess) and what is needed (I guess). Sorry for that. Now will we only write here LASER YOUR WORK IS GREAT?! He knows it is We know it So is this thread going to be dead?

Cheers, just kidding. Sorry Laser if you felt uncomfortable.

[hidden_spectre 2]

wohooooooooooooo

wow halo units and that too by LASER............cant wait

and regarding the animations, the idea proposed by Laser is fantastic, i hope u wud get to implement it successfully

GOOD LUCK MAN

We've re-textured HYK & CBT units in order to reach the wanted result as some people requested, you can see them here.

And of course our units worth nothing at all compared to Laser stuff's quality,though.

Well, I got the job  But it's gonna be a bit hard. There is a disembark animation, mid air animation, open parachute animation and a parachute steering animation  The disembark anim is going to be a bit like the MGS3 intro, where Big Boss does his frontflip cannonballs

P.S

I'm not gonna make some stiffy anims this time, like in the replacement pack Sorry for that crappy pack, but i was tired and I wanted a break

[CameronMcDonald 146]

AirBLade - True that, eh. Too many freakin' Marines!

[Red_Evasion 0]

There should be some NBC soldiers. I've seen too little of them. Give 'em some MOPP suits and M40 Gas Masks. Or XM50 Gas Masks.

[lifeguard532 0]

Ive been working on a mission for the PJ addons. Right now, i have old HALO soldiers standing in the place for PJ's Threw on some medical backpacks from the ORCs effects pack, and gave em some M4's they look pretty snazzy..........no ability to heal though.... .......the other thing is you dont really play the PJ's, but you play as an airforce pavelow pilot, and you work [/i]very closely with the PJ's. It seems like a regular helo mission @ first, but it gets more and more interesting as things progress . Tryin to add things to make it fun. People might be mad at the list of required addons though. lemme know if any1 wants to help out. Id like to release this mission soon after the actual PJ addon comes out... ya know, how BAS released addons and missions that use the addons too. Any takers?

[Baz 0]

I wouldn't mind helping you out.

[lifeguard532 0]

sure thing

I got the "jist" of what i want in the mission, but its still in the early beta stages right now. U want me to jus tell u what i got so far, or u want me to send u what i got thus far?

[Baz 0]

either or, doesn't really matter to me... Which ever you feel comfortable with.
