FFUR Incoming HUGE RELEASE !!!

[xnodunitx 0]

Yeah but the blackhawk camo on that one doesnt necessarily fit and you know dang well half the community would go into an uproar if the old BIS blackhawk was used.

Plus all of the helicopters I pointed out have only 1 main color.

true but also whats that chopper wich has a laser designator aswell as some ffar's as that never really used, well ive never seen a mission wich uses it

flying around for no reason

but anyway is there actually an addon for that chopper ?

cant remember whats it called though

[xnodunitx 0]

Lot of helicopters use laser designators,hell the apache was famous for that in desert storm,are you sure your not thinking of planes?

[456820 0]

on ofp the Ah1 or something like that i cant fully remember its on ofp holds the ld and 16 ffars i think

[xnodunitx 0]

Only one I could think of that had that low of a rocket count is the kiowa but I dont remember it having laser guided weapons,only one I remember havin that was the A-10.

Btw thunder ya got yaself a newer M60A1 for the desert part of the mod

[SoldierIsNotHistory 0]

A10 haven't got a laser designator... He need an external designator like a man. However, kiowa have the laser designator as a weapon

I love original BIS units

Meep what happened to the abrams tread texture? Or is that the old old abrams that had the newer camo?

[Thunderbird 0]

M1A1 , textures mainly done by Sigma... not so old but with the flash and smoke effects they seem a bit weird though... however this tank's really awesome as the rest of used addons.

[456820 0]

is that an M1a1 abrams because i rememebr some debate where someone said they didnt have the M2a2 then so is that like a retextured M1a1 ?

also does that have the 50 cal on top of the turret and if it does how about making a usable weapon eg

turn out and you can use the 50cal ?

it would be so much better you have your gunner firing its machine gun aswell as the commander on top using the fifty cal it would also look quite cool

also i downloaded CSLA 2 not long ago well actually yesterday (yes im a bit late)

and in the installation i could chose ffur effects and i did and i noticed on the choppers there wasnt eneough back blast of smoke it was only a little puff backwards i thought there was more ?

but this may of been sorted out in the newest versions

edit - recoil in the last version it was way too high couldnt shoot anything

lower it slightly more if these were real soldiers they can handle their 3 shot burst without going to the top of the screen also recoils more backwards then up not just up

[xnodunitx 0]

I don't think thats the one sigma did with the 50cal,looks like the one he did long ago when O2 wasn't public,also I don't think using the MG's on any tank turrets would bei n FFUR as thats a pretty big engine limitation,still waitin for RHS to,if their eve going to,release it,I remember seeing a video,worst ya had to do was hop out n get back in and thats no biggie but damnit this is taking too long.

Commander MG script was discussed many times, and at current time it isn't possible. And even if you get in on that way working, just leave it out for playabilities sake. Better wait and hope ArmA is supporting multiple guns on vehicles.

Hi all !

Some news from the front...

Screen :

[456820 0]

looks great

how about some more desert pics, apparentaly i heard that ofp performs best in desert areas so im looking especially forward to the desert release

good work

[Thunderbird 0]

Some news from the front :

so at first thank ya for your cooperation by voting in the poll done a few days ago, btw we'd like to inform ya that we've decided to remove the blood and back blast effects in the goal to reduce the lag and to allow to ALL computers higher than 1.0 ghz using the FFUR Packs .

These both effects honestly do occur a lot of lag , especially the blood one though , the black bast one sometimes makes CTD...so best to tak'em out

The packs're totally finished except the desert one cuz I'm sill waiting for NodUnit expected helicopters/tanks... , however we still need beta-testers , if you're interested just contact me by pm!

Thank ya

More pictures concerning the desert version are on the way..

Best Regards

the blood script causes CTD's

but it was so good are you using the bis blood then or are you using the one that was said above a while ago ?

what about a different back blast script or even better

a little screen like in ECP where you chose what effects you want so its like a multiple config but with one

so if people have lower spec comps they can turn off some effects ?

that would be very usefull in this

[Katzelowski 0]

Have I missed that the new Shilka and URAL by Spetz Natz mod has been released?

[xnodunitx 0]

Not that I know of,I think they just posted screens of it but I'm eager,the shilka is one of the vehicles that has had no editing to it except textures,like the AH-1S.

[Airbourne Alchaholic 0]

It's been a while since I've played in the snow ( ). I can't wait, as usuall

Can't be long now, unleas someone releases a very nice Tank or Plane or somthing that Thunderbird likes

[Thunderbird 0]

Hi buds !

Some news from the front :

-So following the fact that the crater occurs a minor lag for comps lower than 1.3 ghz , I've decided to take it out from Tanks and APCs explosions , and to keep it only for choppers crashes , plus it seems more impressive on helicopters explosions

-T-72 Replaced By ORCS one which do perfectly fit with the wanted era .

-Sanctuary animations applied for east and west sides , people seem to not to really appreciate ORCS ones... they aren't totally optimized even they're very nice !

Somes pics of the stuff in progress (thanks to Maestro Parvus )

Pierre (FFUR new member) will carry out a very nice promo movie before the release showing all changes

Best Regards

hey looking great

shame that your getting rid of the crater and the orcs animations they add a nice feel to the game, oh well still looking great cant wait for the final release

also what size roughly is all 3 packs i might have to download it over 2 days since to my new 1gb a day download limit

[Thunderbird 0]

the 3 packs size would be less than 1 GB

[456820 0]

damn so i will have to download 2 packs one day and the other the next day oh well unless i go one day wihtout internet anyway doesnt matter looking good and cant wait keep up the good work TB and the whole FFUR team
