Yeah, when I saw the screenshots I just thought Wow.

Does anyone know if things like this are used in African countries still?

Just tried it, and what a great addon! Love everything about this boat! It has a great sluggish feel to it in the rivers, with Charlie on either side. I also love the engine sound. My only comment is that I don't really like some of the weapon sounds (specifically the Mk19). But compared to the quality of the addon, this is fairly insignificant. Brilliant job. notworthy.gifthumbs-up.gif

Does it have multiple weapons like Col. Klink's PT boats? That would be sweet AS!

If you look in the Addons & Mods: Discussion topic on the Tango, you'll see a lovely description of the development history of this beast, including the description of the gun system. (Forgive me, I am too idle to go and find the topic for you). All I need now is a Don Sheppard figure to pilot her, and I'm a "Riverine-ing" all the way down the "Delta"...

Brown-Water Sailor, I'm-a-sailing in the s**t,

Where's a Gook merchie, for me to go and hit...

This baby has got seven different weapon positions... a .cal30, a .cal50 and a 20mm gun on each side and a 40mm grenadelauncher behind the bridge... you can give charlie the hell on earth with this thing...

Yep, just create it in the editor and voila, all are used!

Great addon, but landing on it with a Seb Huey will cause pretty strange situations... Well I guess it wasn't designed to carry one then tounge2.gif

I think you wil find its the other way round  smile_o.gif

maybe the seb hueys use the same or simular geo as the apach coz that's the only bird I have found that goes thru the H-pad.

Even the chook will sit there - just a slight size and weight problem though  tounge2.gif

You guys should be using CSJ's excellent Hueys anyway... icon_rolleyes.gifbiggrin_o.gif

Yep, but I was too lazy to give 'em 'Nam pilots, so I used the Sebnam one.

By the way, a VC RPG-team of 3 men can, even at the lowest skill setting, easily beat the Tango! That is, if the 30cal doesn't find them first of course.

@HawkinsDaFin

the Hueys are getting an overhaul atm - hopefully get an update out soon.

..as they prolly would with most vehicles.  smile_o.gif

rocket hits.

That's the problem I forgot the C-rations boxes

now I can bump the armour up a tad.

Nice work , but there're some bugs sad_o.gif

First I got warning launching OFP (some wav file missing...) then ingame after truing to fire lights.

Also IMHO these ships are too heavy armoured wink_o.gif

I wonder if it's possible to realize but I'd like to have ability to shoot cargo soldiers through lowered gateway.

Same here, anybody got any idea's why?

Also, what's the ETA on the other river boats you're working on. These two are great (apart from the missing .wav file bug).

this problem is hopefully sorted now.

have started other boats and they will follow as soon as I am reasonably happy with the ATC's playability.

Excellent, is there an updated download available?

Just wanted to say what excellent addons these are, really looking forward to the Zippo  pistols.gif
