NUT NBC units

[black dragon 0]

I like the NBC soldiers.

i was going to say any one thinking of doing a nbc unit would have to do full IPE (indiviual protective equipment), e.i. the suit,golves,overboots and respirator. as most chemical agents have more than one way of entering the body, e.g.

V-Nerve and G-nerve agents can enter the body if inhaled, abosorbed or swallowed. Mustard and Bilster agents normally can only be inhaled in, but if released in a liquid form rather than an vapour, it will attack anything that comes into contact with it, these days there are really nasty ways of releasing a chemical agent, for example VX gas can be mixed with a liquid which has adeasive and corrorsive propities, so even if you had your suit on, the liquid would stick to you and then burn through the suit and then contaminate you   , thats why these days full chemical protection is needed, a mask will only protect you from CS gas exposure nothing more

just my 2 cents

@paratrooper;

in an urban setting CS-gas is the most used gas (the units are an urban combat unit).

But you are somewhat right. I already added a full hood over the head to give more protection and the units already have gloves. I didn't want to make a completely new addon, so IMO this was good enough. Use you imagination a little and than they'll do just fine

Nice addon! I like the Darth Vader breathing sounds

The animation used for putting on the mask is cool, too.

Great work!

Great looking units and concepts, frost.

For those who feels gas masks are not workable, u can actually use triggers with setdammage 0 ingame and setdammage 1 for those without gas mask....until some scripters and addonmakers of soldiers units and chemical gases can come to an agreement on how best to implement their dammage settings in their scripts before publishing the addon.

yep, this is a 'known bug' unfortunately. It was already present in the FML_anbc addon. It' because of the OFP sound system. The game wants to play the breathing sound and than makes the guns sound lower. Normally it should make it sound normal again after a few shots and than the breathing sound almost disappears.

There's nothing I can do to fix this. And as I stated in the readme;

Quote[/b] ]Any bugs with scripts and functionality should be directed to Mig of the

FML-mod, since it's originaly his work.

Quote[/b] ]Have some problems with helmets in 1st person view...

Not a known bug. It seems it was already present in the NUT_UUSMC addon. I'll see what I can do to fix this.

ah very nice.

nice sound (my kat was afraid of it !)

but one little question. the camo the units use is URBAn camo. right ?

will there be any releases with differnt camo ?

-yes it's urban camo. To be more accurate it's the 'Urban-T' camouflage that was tested by the USMC and RNLMC during Excersize Operation Urban Warrior 1999. The camouflage was never approved for fielding.

-No, I will not continue this addon to include other camouflages. A woodland camouflage would be extremely easy, but I won't work on it anymore. Anyone who wants to do so, PM or mail me.

I will only fix bugs and leave the rest the same. I'm working on two vehicle addons for the LLW-mod right now and they take up all my spare time. The NUT_NBC addon was a fun-project which I decided to release at the request of Para-troooper. I do not have the time or the motivation to expand this project byond it's current status.

Evening.

If you have any way of letting external scripts know whether you have the mask on or not, we could include it in the next release.

As a quickfix, I suppose we could get it to detect just by classname, but that defeats the point of the mask if you are safe either way.

You could assume that if it can make a tank explode that it melts your masks instantly? :P

By the look of those screenshots the gazmask seems much better than mine

I need to fix the first person view anyway, so I might include this.

The easiest way is is to make something animated on this addon. This way the script can detect if a mask has been put on or off (by checking the animated state 0 or 1). The same thing was used in the BAS dust scripts to detect goggles (which gave you these blackouts when you forgot to put them on).

That will take me a few hours. I'm quite bussy these days with other addons and real-life, so it may be untill the end of the week before I can find the time to do this.

On the tanks ect; You should remove this and do dammage to infantry and wheeled vehicles only. Tracked vehicles have an NBC system that protects them. Perhaps you can do this by detecting 'tank'-class.

Here is an old topic I started ages ago... perhaps it will help any scripters interested in implementing a NBC gas mask script.

Very very neat looking units , i took them on a trip through the underworld with General barrons? vampires and demons and hounds , the results were ... *cough*

Keep an eye out for more in the OFP:CP thread

Like I promised before and said in the readme; you can use the gasmaskmodel if you want to.

@Acecombat

Very nice picture. THis is why I made these units; because a gasmask looks ubercool. Reminds me of Half-Life (HL1 you kiddies, not HL2!!).

[Jog 0]

hey guys how can i make AI soldiers from other groups put on those gas masks ? for example on a trigger :/ something like

unit1 action ... what do i have to write after the action ?

From the orig. FML NBC soldiers readme...

-----------------------------------

- to start the game with the mask on type in the init field of the player:

this animate ["mask", 1];this exec "\fml_anbc\scripts\maskon.sqs";

- to start the game with the light on type in the init field of the player:

unit name action ["light on"];

Correct. Only the flashlight is not present on my addon.

edit; OOP! I forgot that you need to change the pathnames. This is the correct way;

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">in the init field;

this animate ["mask", 1];this exec "\NUT_NBC\scripts\maskon.sqs";

Hmm we have a problem here a bit , the grip on the guns on these guys is a bit off sometimes?

Or maybe its sanctuarys anim pack that i am using thats causing it?

[AimPoint 0]

Good job,the gas mask It's really well done

[cptn_cool 0]

we can probebly expect gas in ofp 2, they HAVE to have thought of that one...(thats why its been delayed for so long, see they have the most of the game ready, just that they are working on this one gas script that is really tought to do!)

[panzergrenadier3 39]

Very cool work! This addon is amazing! What's about an update of your german units (with gasmask)?
