CanadianTerror 0 Posted November 1, 2004 Very cool! Does South Africa have any kind of unique small arms that you guys intend to make btw? ...or are you just using fnfals etc etc? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jotte 0 Posted November 1, 2004 Very nice models!! While the designs themselfs not exactly are any marvels of estethics these models are very well done. I recently purchased Larry Bonds "Vortex" and "Red Phoenix" and I'm going to start on Vortex as soon as I'm done with Red Phoenix. I'll be keeping tabs on you guys. ;) I'm looking forward to the R4, ie the SA version of the Galil SAR. While not uniqe it is a weapon only done once and that is by LoBo mod very recently. And I hope it gets a proper 35 round magazine. edit: Come to think of it the R-4 was adopted sometime in the mid-late 80's iirc so its a bit out of your initial target era... but hope springs eternal as they saying goes.

Cpt. FrostBite 0 Posted November 1, 2004 Awesome looking stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellfish6 7 Posted November 1, 2004 Right now we've got an FN-FAL (R-1) rifle and an FN MAG. I'm working on the R-4 (Galil) right now for the next beta of the soldiers. Eventually we'll have the SS-77 GPMG as well, in 7.62 and 5.56mm variants. Vortex is what got me interested in SA in the first place, probably around 15 years ago.

miles teg 1 Posted November 1, 2004 All I can say is wow! Â Second to the IDF military hardware, I think the South African armor is some of the coolest and most unique. Â I can't wait to make missions with this mod. Â I hope you all also look into "Executive Outcomes" mercenary units as well.

Acecombat 0 Posted November 5, 2004 Yeah its a model fault there fixing it , it somehow slipped in the beta unnoticed , blame hellfish if you want to though And technically these units are SADF not SANDF soldiers are the ones which belong in the post 94 era or so ive been told by Vibes. Soi kinda labelled that pic wrongly .. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellfish6 7 Posted November 5, 2004 The FN MAG was fixed before the beta was even released - I accidentally put the wrong model in the package. Ah well. Next version will be corrected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you going to use own weapons for OPFOR or will you perhaps ask ORCS (RHS?) or INQ if you could use theirs? The guns from ORCS Motorized Inf. would allways be nice...
