Acecombat 0 Posted October 21, 2004 Is there going to be any mission in the beta? What about the Angolan campaign, any info? I dont think the betas are for public release I think the finals will be released only but you better ask hellfish about this , this is only my speculation. Missions will be there for the final release i guess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hellfish6 7 Posted October 22, 2004 We're talking about releasing a demo at some point in the future when we have enough new stuff to make it worthwhile. While the Buffel and the soldiers are a significant step forward for us (being our first real addon) we've still got a lot to do. You can expect a demo when the following units are completed: Ratel-20 IFV (25% done) Ratel-90 FSV (25% done - Sniper Skull is still working on base model) R-4 rifle (95% done) Puma/Oryx helo (50% done - we have the model, just need to texture it) Olifant Mk1A (75% done) Soldiers (95% done - just need R4 soldiers in config) FN MAG (99% done - minor texture issue) Buffel (100% done) The demo release will probably require the BAS Tonal/Tango pack, as the island won't be done in the near future. As for the Djibouti project, we're hoping for cooperation from the Frenchpoint team to help out with the campaign and possibly some additional French equipment. For this project, you can expect to see three types of Djiboutian soldiers (Force d'Action Rapide, regulars and militia), some new (and sometimes weird) armored vehicles and a new OpFor pack. We're planning to use Frenchpoint units and some to-be-determined American units (HYK or Laser's troops) as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Footmunch 0 Posted October 25, 2004 Wow those planes are looking good , whats the weapons loadout like for these ? Plus are those roundels SAAF's? Right now, SAAF Bucc carries 'dumb' bombs and rockets. Gun pods were also used, IIRC. And yes, those are SAAF roundels: There was also a version with an orange Springbok instead of the eagle.

CanadianTerror 0 Posted October 25, 2004 Just to clarify... You are releasing the South Africans as a standalone set and then OPFOR at a later date? And ya, that does look good (for a truck) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellfish6 7 Posted October 25, 2004 We're gonna release stuff as we get around to it. I mentioned a page or two back about a demo. We don't really have set projects - we research everything we can continuously and our modellers pick and chose what they want to do basically. Eventually we'll release a campaign or maybe even a full-blown mod, but that's a ways off. If you register at our forums, you get access to all the team areas so you can see what we're doing and talking about. While I respect that most addon/mod teams like their privacy, I've been in contact with too many South Africans and Namibians to keep things hidden from them, and I'd especially like the input from the vets of the wars early in the development process instead of later. You never know when someone who isn't on the team might look at something we're working on and have a better way of doing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
