Vilas' addons

[dm 9]

Well, then, BIS got that one wrong, as did I. I made the mistake of assuming you used the BIS mlod's, not just a CA model. Everyone is human. Humans make mistakes.

Still, you CAN fix the problem with the steps I mentioned previously.

As for having helped, some people get assistance, most get pointers. Making stuff for "fun" just isnt anymore, so I dont.

hey Vilas i was looking over my RPT trying to fix up some of our stuff and i caught this error in ther:

File vilas_wpn\config.cpp, line 2790: '/cfgWeapons/vil_AKMSB/ai_Single.showtoplayer': Missing ';' at the end of line

Conflicting addon vilas_wpn in 'vilas_wpn\', previous definition in 'vilas_awp\'

not sure the source or the fix so jsut a heads up

1) that gray effect on the glasses is caused from the shadow, yu need to add the appropriate shadow "flag" to the glass rvmat ("NoAlphaWrite"). (we have the same issue in our addons too).

2)about the "objects diapearing, if "alpha faces sort" doesn't work, which in somecasses doesn't work, you need to add a 2nd flag ("NoZWrite").

look the sample below

SAMPLE

1)1st pass given in O2

ambient[] = {1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0};

diffuse[] = {1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0};

forcedDiffuse[] = {0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0};

emmisive[] = {0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0};

specular[] = {1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0};

specularPower = 5.0;

renderFlags[] = {"NoAlphaWrite","NoZWrite"};

nextPass = "HWM_Air\ah64\sklo-pass2.rvmat";

PixelShaderID = "Glass";

VertexShaderID = "Glass";

class Stage1 {

texture = "#(ai,64,64,1)fresnelGlass()";

uvSource = "none";

};

class Stage2 {

texture = "ca\air\data\materialy\env_co.paa";

uvSource = "none";

};

2)2nd pas called from 1st parr rvmat

ambient[] = {1, 1, 1, 1};

diffuse[] = {1, 1, 1, 1};

forcedDiffuse[] = {0, 0, 0, 0};

emmisive[] = {0, 0, 0, 1};

specular[] = {0, 0, 0, 0};

specularPower = 0;

PixelShaderID = "AlphaNoShadow";

VertexShaderID = "Basic";

renderFlags[] = {"NoColorWrite","NoZWrite"};

hope that helps.

Nice units and weapons but vehicles still get stuck on bridges. I also noticed that on motorcycle cop in third person the face and hand textures are all black and he sits a bit to the right of the seat. Ather than that I like the variety that this adds.

SLA from 1985 and surprise

SLA from 2000 and P85 KRAZ truck

Hey vilas, did you get that PM I sent you a few weeks ago with the modified config for the bandits addon? It added wound textures for all of them.

Hey Vilas, the link for your WPN - Eastern weapons pack -is down. Is there another place where we can download this addon?

Thanks for the link Manzilla, but that's the old version from nov 2008. The new jan 09 version is only hosted on ofp.gamepark.cz apparently.  

EDIT: The ofp.gamepark.cz link is up and running again. Their server seems to have some issues, the link only works once in a while.

sory for not replying for long

concerning bandits addon - yes , i know, i just had no time, sorrry, i really work hard on P85 finishing

soon weapons from P85 will be added to "my addons" too, to have the same content in mod and in separate packs:

Epic, a Romanian AK! Not a request as such - but if you are making more AKs at some point in the future, would you consider making a Hungarian AMD-65 pic You had one in your OFP pack, and it was one my favourite East weapons

[icebreakr 3157]

Romanian or Bulgarian?

[echo1 0]

The one in his pic is a Romanian one. You can tell by the front grip. See wiki

[vilas 477]

yes, for IDF mod purpose and Talib vs. P85 USSR infantry missions

because Romanian weapons are very popular among Arabic guerillas and fighters

the same like PSL, sniper rifle from Max Payne2

i have no idea why and when, but probably very big number of Romanian production weapons entered Arabian areas some years ago

almost in every photo from that area we can see Arab men with such model of AK

by the way : funny was that i saw African guerillas with STG44 in photos ca.1970

[belgerot 33]

The Sturmgewehr model is nice. Shame it landed in Africa and not in my hands!!

It is a good observation about the Romanian models, it does seem that a lot ended up there but that can be said for America as well. I've seen many of these types for sale at decent prices, and the 'parts kits' are amongst the cheapest you'll find.

Yeah I'm about to buy one just for fun, and because I can since I've got a class 3, and I was shocked how cheap it was.

Here's a picture of the AMD-65 in our region

Another one

And another one form Lebanon, might have been handled by an Hezballah armorer.

[vilas 477]

hehe

we thought about the same in the same time :

[belgerot 33]

The AMD series to me was the most interesting looking. I had an AMD-65 kit but sold it years ago.

Deadly work Vilas

I've several pictures of Afghani troops using them. Apparently the Hungarian gave or sold the Afghan government thousands of them.
