Sc@tterbrain 0 Posted November 18, 2006 It may be a bit to much to hope for, but since the TOW missle is now using the ITAS targeting system on many platforms I really hope it is guided and modeled after that system. Just some pointless trivia: The US Army did contract for the development of the TOW-FF Fire and Forget Missle but canceled the project in 2002. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CameronMcDonald 146 Posted November 18, 2006 Just a quick question - what model of GBU are the Harriers carrying? I thought they were GBU16s, but after closer examination I may be wrong. Just need to know so I can keep working on my custom stringtables. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shashman 0 Posted November 18, 2006 Those are definitely GBU-16, 1000lb LGBs. The shape and colour of GBU-12s is different, look : GBU-12 GBU-16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meyamoti 0 Posted November 18, 2006 No way, in that first pic wouldn't you say it looks like almost just like a blurred background. It's really intense for in the game, but then again, I've never played it I'd just have to say it looks a lot like what someone can do with Photoshop. I remember a mod and developer saying there was a command in AA when it comes to taking images with the camera,a kind of "setfocus" and such. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shashman 0 Posted November 18, 2006 Wow, if you have the ability to control the focus, then think of the possibilities ; CS gas, flashbangs, all sorts of visual disabilities a soldier could suffer in battle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sc@tterbrain 0 Posted November 18, 2006 Color dose not really designate the unit as i have seen many combinations of grey and green on either the warhead or the guidane control unit on the nose. The real difference is the size of the warhead. For the GBU-12 it uses the Mk 82 (500lb.), and for the GBU-16 it uses the Mk 83 (1,000 lb.) warhead. The size difference is the most obvious characteristic, though not clearly evident unless looking at both. I believe the grey or green color scheme may be related to Navy or Army/Airforce use of the actual warhead. I believe for the Navy it is called the BLU-(something) instead of the Mk-(whatever) but I'm really not sure of that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shashman 0 Posted November 18, 2006 Well yeah, the colour can also tell whether the bomb itself is a live or training round, but there is an obvious difference in shape and size between the two Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sc@tterbrain 0 Posted November 18, 2006 Well yeah, the colour can also tell whether the bomb itself is a live or training round, but there is an obvious difference in shape and size between the two The basic shape between the two is the same. One is just smaller. The only differnce in shape in the Paveway II's is the warhead used by other European countries. In the Naval configuration (as acurately displayed on the Harrier) the best way to tell the difference between a live laser guided and training laser guided round is the size. The LGTR Laser Guided Training Round can be used to train for the GBU-10 up to the GBU-16. The training round has no "bulge" in the middle and is basiclly just a cylinder along the length. The Navy has adopted this training round but the Army/Airforce is reluctant...or so says those who make it. Isn't it amazing what one can find on the internet in a few minutes!

Sled88 0 Posted November 18, 2006 @Gart... OMFG! WTF? What are your pc-specs? If I would image ArmA runs with 7 fps ... Wow I would kill myself... That is crazy... You make me fear that my pc won't handle it! 3Ghz 1Gb ram X1600 pro 256mb What would ya say? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
somebloke 0 Posted November 18, 2006 Err...guys remember that you don't have to run the game in "Highest settings physically possible" mode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aus_twisted 0 Posted November 18, 2006 1680x1050 is to high res for a 6800GS and the 3000+ doesn't help much either at such resolutions. But still some nice screenshots though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingnl 0 Posted November 18, 2006 @Gart... OMFG! WTF? What are your pc-specs? If I would image ArmA runs with 7 fps ... Wow I would kill myself... That is crazy... You make me fear that my pc won't handle it!3Ghz 1Gb ram X1600 pro 256mb What would ya say? Just look at Gart's sig: AMD Athlon 64 3000+ , GeForce 6800 GS , 2 x DDR 512MB 433MHZ CL2.5 Kingmax , DFI NF4-Ultra-Infinity , Samsung SpinPoint SP2504C - 250GB SATA II , Sound Blaster Audigy 4 He has an average computer, but can still run the game in normal with a resolution of 1280 by 1024. I've got a comp with an: AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ Geforce 6800 GS 2 gig of dual channel ram Same video cart, but faster cpu and ram. So im not worried, if Gart can run the game in normal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Correction 0 Posted November 18, 2006 What would ya say? I'd say change your pants and calm down. It'll be fine, and a demo will be out before too long to reassure you. Also, loads of thanks to Gart. Now we can all know exactly what to expect, graphically.k I'm suspecting that I'll probably be running the game on normal, which doesn't look too shabby at all, but we'll see... I also remember a lot of complaining about the soldiers' eyes looking "dead" in one of the official videos BIS released. I see now that this "dead-eye" effect only occurs in like the lowest settings, so that's good to know now, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwarden 1124 Posted November 18, 2006 gart You are same person as oneoff ? as he posts exactly same message content with pictures and settings in different topic ... if You original author then fine otherwise people get bit "dizzy" about what pictures are taken at what specs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CANADAVE 14 Posted November 18, 2006 that was a great assessment of detail vs. game speed knowing computer hardware. I was really hoping someone could do the same for VIEW DISTANCE. The big thing for me is view distance.. I love a LONG view distance. Can some of our Czech friends do an assessment with detail and view distance vs. FPS. Of course PLEASE post your CPU specs so we can compare with our own. Thanks!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
