MEDICUS 0 Posted November 4, 2004 Here are some pics ( by OFP.Info) Â Â Â Â Looks very nice. Especially the buildings are looking good. But too bad that it's another "summer" island. I would really enjoy to see a nice winter island some day. MfG MEDICUS Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

belgerot 33 Posted November 5, 2004 It is a great map, the new buildings give this map a truely Eastern European feel. Some of the building I actually have seen in my old town. It is good to see a new version of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bobcatt666 0 Posted November 6, 2004 ftp://www.gamezone.cz:8021/ofpd/unofaddons2/pksmzk3.1.rar for the vehicles. He has made a number of annons, a boat load, I suggest searching for them noticed the flash bug was fixed. http://www.gamezone.cz Nice island able to recreate some of my favorite missions from M1A2 Tank Platoon II game, slightly flat-lands area where tanks can battle at full engagement ranges. My main complaints on the map, some buildings tend to autocall targeting. Maintly castle ruins. Odd mixture of buildings that don't quite mesh with eachother but mostlikely like that in reallife. Just big enough to dogfight over and not be laggy, well unless you pass over the big cities, but lag is minimal, had my view distance up rather high so I can land on the carriers.

the_shadow 0 Posted November 6, 2004 sorry, dont speak chech (spell?) could anyone direct me to all his addons? (i noticed that it cant be all on his site since i seam to miss alot of stuff) oh, and i downloadd his vietnam weapons pack (from his site) get "model special" on all weapons in that pack (even on weapons that did work previously) the island, great i say... i really like parts of it, like the eastern part of Warzaw (east of the river), ran up on the top floor on a tall (6 story?) building and looked out on the back side, i almost fainted, only thing i missed in the view was a playground.. if he/she/whatever could make towns that look all like that (including the playground) it would be wonderful.. i dont lie when i say that its partly the most realistic eastern europe island i have seen (i have been to lithuania so i got some knowledge about how it looks), hell, its one of the most realistic all together... just wish that someone could help him make it even better by making houses and objects (in a worn down kind of style) oh, and i heard someone said that the "musselflash on the shadows" bug was fixed, i still got that bug, but not on all weapons (like the M16A2 dont have it, most others do) i hope the addonmaker reads this, becouse i think this stuff is wonderful... DAMN god job.. just need some bug fixing (and that someone directs me to whatever im missing) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThudBlunderQ8 0 Posted November 6, 2004 I agree that this island is grand for people who like a spot of manoeuvre warfare - I think the only one that betters it is the Lowlands Warrior beauty. Nice touch making a scale model of your home country - didn't an Oz team do something similar a while back? I spent a while looking for Stargrad and Drawsko Pomorskie - the only bits of Poland I've been to - but no luck... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted November 6, 2004 I want to thank the addon/island makers for this pack. I brings back many memories, an quite a few Polish people in Canada will enjoy looking at this, and shooting some maluchy i zuki. Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vilas 473 Posted November 6, 2004 some answers... weapon packs requires Keg RPG7 Keg Makarov (for fia, soviet and polish early army side) newest polish commando Formoza diver requires CoC Diver... my new site is : http://vilas.e-vro.org also i suggest to visit www.ofp.bmj.pl (friends) polish official ofp site if someone uses vietnam pack , he must have basic vmod file !!! vmod is basic file !!!! without it polish VPOL pack , vietnam VVIET don't work !!! about island: i tried to make island to my campaign... myself i want to create minimod.. there are addons, there is island, now missions... i know many about weapons, that's why they are realistic looking.. my weapons shouldn't be used with other.. why ? because it has lower accuracy... if dispersion is bigger, then units fire more often.. i don't like when in OFP someone does weapon which hits man at 500 m at one shot... it is not realistic... in my minimod AI units shoot often, there is a lot of fire... so that is reason why my weapons has lower accuracy... by the way ? does someone heard about war in which soldiers shots only few times ? no... i don't think so... in OFP weapons were too accurate... and my HK SD is good only at distance lower than 100 m ... because it is silenced pistol , in BIS OFP HK SD shoots like M16 , nonsense... something more about island... it is 1.00 version... 45 thousands of objects... maybe it will be better... east side of Warszawa is "Praga" something like new york's brooklyn hehehehe , i live here... west side of Warsaw is normal europe city... Krakow.. it was previous ( to 16 century) capitol city... it is old city and it has kings' castle... i only made warsaw big, because in ofp addons there was no island with very big city.. i made police and mafia units to make urban fights missions... You can find mafia and police in VPOL... in PKSMZK You can find police cars... and ZW car... ZW means "zandarmeria wojskowa" - Military Police... Military Gendarmery... polish units in "rain camo" are on east side (because of Warsaw Pact before 1989) after 1990 Polish army is on west side... You can find here polish "leopard" camo ... after joining NATO polish units wear "US (PUMA) WZ.93 camo" so there are 3 types of polish camo, many variants of soviet and FIA weapons... also Great Britain and Bundeswehra from 1985... i create two campaings... first 1985... war between east and west... because i live here.. Poland was in Warsaw Pact , player will be on east side... second, after NATO.... player will be policeman fighting with bandits, which we hadn't during socialism... mafia came out after 1990...

the_shadow 0 Posted November 6, 2004 i have (today) downloaded both the VMOD pack, and the VVIET pack, i installed VMOD first then VVIET, but, the Vietnam era weaposn dont work, i get "model special". oh, and the fact that i just spent 4.5h in making a small industrial area in one of the villages + alot of defence positions (like building a wall with mapfact military objects sandbags using individual bags and not the premade wall sections), i think that is a good measurement on how i like these addons Vilas, keep up the good work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bobcatt666 0 Posted November 7, 2004 Well like the pack so far, even more so being in the military around that time period RL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThudBlunderQ8 0 Posted November 7, 2004 sidhellfire, Thankyou very much for the link - it appears to be downloading correctly as I speak. However, I just tried the link on Vilas' site again - still no joy. Try it yourself; navigate to the English page, click download and then click the VVIET link. It's properties page indicates that the link points you to: http://members.lycos.co.uk/ofpgamer/ftp/vviet.rar ..and this is the link that fails. Where did you find yours?

the_shadow 0 Posted November 7, 2004 arghhh, i should spank myself a long time for this.. just made a triple check in the addon folder where i have put your addons.. and something wasnt right... i didnt find vviet.pbo, then i started to check on my comp, and i couldnt find VVIET.PBO anywhere, or any other file with a similar name.. it turned out, i hadnt downloaded it, either it had been aborted or something else, but it wasent on my comp. so now i have put VVIET.PBO in the addon folder, does anyone think it will work now?
