mechastalin 0 Posted April 7, 2006 Heres the first public beta of my first ever vehicle addon. The model still needs some details added and it lacks a shadow. But I think it's ready enough for some public exposure. Also a permanent mirror would be nice Bigger Images. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a248/Autozam/9p122action3.jpg http://img85.imageshack.us/my.php?image=brdm2action0wt.jpg http://img293.imageshack.us/my.php?image=brdmat3action8lc.jpg Download http://s39.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3TUUFT0O6LGCE3O8MR8I6VMDGO You guys will also need this Mcar addon. http://s39.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3VB3M9GEFACIQ1IQYEUMPNPAEV Special thanks to the Hawk BRDM-1 for the turret model and OFPL for the great BRDM-2.

343rdBadger 0 Posted April 7, 2006 I think it reloads waaayy to slow for something that has its missiles already in the loaded position on the rack??Can we speed it up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mechastalin 0 Posted April 7, 2006 I think it reloads waaayy to slow for something that has its missiles already in the loaded position on the rack??Can we speed it up? I read up that it takes an experienced operator about 20 seconds in between shots to ready everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ag_smith 0 Posted April 7, 2006 Hey, I'm glad to see you've got it released, but in the next version please make sure to change tags to MEC_ on weapon names as well. I've taken a quick look at the config and I've seen these: OFF_BRDM2KPWT_Mounted, OFF_BRDM2KPWT_Mounted and also some HWK_ tags too. We don't want any addon conflicts going on here.

king homer 1 Posted April 7, 2006 Real nice addon. Good for fast attack runs against single tanks. What about a desert version? I'd like to see some Iraqi version. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

major woody 11 Posted April 7, 2006 About freaking fu***** time the OFP community got such vehicle - I've been whaiting for such BRDM's for quite a while now About the loadning time - 20 in RL is ok, but a bit to long in OFP - so can you please set down?

The missile is flying off to the right, doesn't hit the target. Yeah I get this to and i DO have the lastest MCar addon I also get the BIS logo on the side of this addon too In effect you need version 0.91 (or newer) of MCAR engine. The problem is that this version hasn't been officially released yet: you can find it here, anyway: MCAR engine 0.91 but just for another couple of days, as it is a .yousendit link. Or download it from the link provided up here by MechaStalin. I've still to download this BRDM and try it myself: the original range (the one I gave it) was three thousand meters, with AI engaging as far as 2600 meters, but looking at pictures I guess this has a reduced max range of about 1500 meters. The fact that MechaStalin reduced the reload rate (before was 5 seconds or so) is probably because the operator has to manually drive the missile to the target (this in real life). The vehicle would be too powerful if it could fire faster: a platoon of Bradleys could be wiped out by a single BRDM opening fire at max range, the M2A2 not having the time to come at combat range.

Shashman 0 Posted April 7, 2006 Wow so the AI engage at 3000m? That would be sooo good! Make this a really dangerous lil asset (this lil thing has got a cute ass though, you have to admit ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

j w 0 Posted April 8, 2006 Probably something in config that causes it (that what should make your squad/team/clan's mark seen on the vehicle in MP) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

.COMmunist 0 Posted April 9, 2006 I also think it needs a new sound when the missile hits the tank. Vit has a good one for his Konkurs ATGM in Vit's APC pack. If you can extract it from there somehow, that would be a better sound for this addon. I think Vit stop making addons for OFP, so he probably doesn't care if you use his stuff. Ask him just incase.

I'll give this a look. Thanks for the feedback guys. I'm gunna do alot of editing over the next couple days. PS: Does anyone have any good camo pattern ideas? Edit: Also, The BI Logo problem is not due to a conflict with the OFPL BRDM as I just checked that. And does anybody know what LOD controls the shadow? I seem to have lost it when I cleared some things out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ag_smith 0 Posted April 17, 2006 Edit: Also, The BI Logo problem is not due to a conflict with the OFPL BRDM as I just checked that. I'm afraid it is. What you need to do, is to change the model filename (OFPL_BRDM.P3d) to MEC_BRDM.p3d and then change then coresponding entry in cfgModels section. If you have the original OFPL soviet BRDM, you won't experience the problem, since its config "overwrites" parts of your config. We've warned you about this. You really need to fix this.
