-RuN- 0 Posted December 18, 2005 I am really sorry that France hasn`t been among your choices. You didn`t get permission to use the existing addons? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted December 18, 2005 I even not thought about involving france to this virtual conflict, in fact this FFUR European pack has been carried out especially to thank all european people (mostly respresented in OFP's community) who supported us, who supported FFUR project and who're still supporting us before I leave to a 'governmental agency' for a while.

David 0 Posted December 18, 2005 3/4 of countries have been reported, the last one has the best represented naval units in OFP. First country that springs to mind is Russia, America comes second but thats not in Europe and the only other non-Russian/American ships I can think of is for the UK (Falklands stuff).

stainer 0 Posted December 18, 2005 AFAIK a Belgian Pack was released some time ago but it did not contain many vehicles or aircraft. LLW Mod has done some great Dutch addons, but they don't have any ships or many aircraft. A Spanish Mod was also released so that would be enough for a full conversion. As for best navy in OFP I would say Sweden. The Swedish Forces Pack had a large number of boats, not neccessarily frigates etc, but small craft. Edit: I checked out the Pedagne (Italian) Mod and they have a good deal of naval units... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtec 0 Posted December 18, 2005 The best vid ive ever seen for flashpoint guys, really impressive!  Deffo selling your mod with this video.  I could see that video bringing a whole new lot of people into this game if you were to post the link in a few forums.  Its just a amazing trailer showing (with a little help from FFUR and addon makers) what a amazing title BIS have created. 4 and a half years old and still looking stunning Hats of to you all  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thunderbird 0 Posted December 18, 2005 He meant movies... Btw, following the fact that the BTR-80 has been used a lot during the chechenian war, plus it's one of the most popular russian vehicles, I envisage to use it instead of the BMP for the FFUR 2005 but I'd like to get your opinion about this expected replacement, first. Advantages: -Carries more troops. -Faster than the BMP. -Looks better than the BMP. -Used more than the BMP in the current russian army. Disadvantages: -Light armor -Less powerful (But the BMP in OFP isn't that efficient against tanks and armored units because of its long reloading time and the low power of its shells, the btr might even be more efficient in some situations, though). Quote[/b] ]i suggest you g8 mod units, pedagne mod units and preparation H italian special forces units (IX regiment). Sincerely sorry mate, the addons selection list has been established a while ago and making some changes at 4 days from the release day might cause some problems.

stainer 0 Posted December 18, 2005 I say go for the BTR Quote[/b] ]4 days from the release day   Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
456820 0 Posted December 18, 2005 i think the BMP becuase the BTR may be able to carry more units but why need it becuase no missions without addons have a BMP which can carry the same amount of men as the BTR so it will just have some empty cargo places Also unless the sounds are changed it will say "2 Oclock enemy BMP" when its a BTR anyway i think the BMP should be used Also 4 days from the release looks like you have been working hard and we all apreciate your work Also in the Asian crisis pack the Blackhawk MG is placed with the Huey and the Huey only holds 9men whilst the blackhawk holds 12 so this can run into problems in many missions Also im not a huge fan of tanks being able to see so far so could you please explain how i could go about making it the same as BIS view distance once the mod is released becuase ive noticed this running into many problems like lying down and starting to shoot on the enemy before they should of since they can see further. Also a tank mission on the CWC campaign were you are told to divert and destroy 3BMP's you can see enemy T80's from the Russians Borderzone which fire on you and blow you up, which wasnt meant to happen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

David 0 Posted December 18, 2005 A fair point about the BTR being called a BMP in game, but I like the BTR so i say go for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tovarish 0 Posted December 18, 2005 I'm worried about it breaking the balance of certain missions, I say go for it, try it, but at the same time have a backup patch replacing it back with the BMP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
456820 0 Posted December 18, 2005 a few questions about all the packs 1. Has that crouch walk/run anim been removed ? 2. Has the recoil been decreased since ive alays thought it was far too much i like FDF's easy to handle but still hard to hit 3. I thought the shilka was being replaced but im not aware of the spetznatz mod being replaced so is it going to be the same BIS one or retextured. 4. Are there any little suprises like scripts/addons being put in which you havent mentioned Cant wait for this oh and what time may this be released please be morning cause im up every morning at 06:30 so i cant miss it cant wait Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr_Tea 0 Posted December 18, 2005 I'm worried about it breaking the balance of certain missions, I say go for it, try it, but at the same time have a backup patch replacing it back with the BMP I double that. This would be the perfect way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
