I don't think that this is a good idea. I would play CoD instead. The AI should have the same config as the player. I would only appreciate that the earlier mentioned weapons, which are unrealistically underpowered, would be more powerfull. Please revise them after the next patch and release of official tools.

[vilas 477]

damn - M1 Carbine was underpowdered !

BIS soldiers have silly working vests !

sometimes from 5 meters i have to fire 3 times from makarow to hit unit, it is normal in ARMA, sometimes my weapons are stronger than BIS (in Hard version)

there will be no patch making Carbine supercannon

[Sergeant Major 0]

It's not only the Carbine. Just try to kill someone with a MP40 from about 30m. It's unrealistic how many hits are needed. But this is an old discussion. You can modify the soldiers vests. Maybe this will help.

[vilas 477]

maybe, on civilans it works

don't blame me, blame BIS

[Sergeant Major 0]

I don't know who to blame, as I'm not an expert. But can you explain me what makes the M9 stronger than the MP40? What values in the config are responsible?

[vilas 477]

[Sergeant Major 0]

my results for MP5, M4, M9, Makarov

MP5: 1-2 shots in torso to kill

M4: 3 shots in torso to kill

M9: 2 shots in torso to kill

Makarov: 2-3 in the chest or 1-2 in the back to kill

Different results compared to yours, that's funny.

Your new configs are better. Only the weapons with less then 600m/s still underperform. It seems that BIS doesn't simulate the damage according to bullet-speeds correctly. That's why I think it should be necessary to raise the speed values above it's real life values. I found that 600m/s is the least acceptable value for the lowest performing weapon. It would be nice if you would raise the speed values for MP40, PPsH, STEN, Greese to approx. 650m/s. Or maybe you really try to reduce the protection of the vests if possible.

[vilas 477]

1 - there is no about vest in configs, so i don't know how to reduce it

2 - but silenced weapons BIS gave 320 speed, to not make supersonic effect

what results you get using silenced weapons

but giving MP40 stronger than M4 - nonsense, when officeial tools will be released and it would be able to open BIS soldiers i will make real German units

I will test it.

Quote[/b] ]but giving MP40 stronger than M4 - nonsense

M4 won't be used with your unit's, so there won't be a comparison. Just make the MP40 and other submachine guns at least 600m/s, like the M1 Carbine, which you say was in fact very poor.

Quote[/b] ]when officeial tools will be released and it would be able to open BIS soldiers i will make real German units

I'm looking forward for this.

One other remark: The signs on the helmet of the W-SS Soldiers are mirror-inverted.

[oldbear 390]

Vilas, it seems you updated your addons. Last downloaded vilas_mod from your site, february 11, 2007 was 30,6 Mb, now it is 29,8 Mb.

I had last posted on your addons on Armed Assault.info at the same date.

Could you tell us about the changes ? So we can follow your work and understand what's happening.

[sickboy 13]

but giving MP40 stronger than M4 - nonsense, when officeial tools will be released and it would be able to open BIS soldiers i will make real German units

Not really an idea why you would need to open the BIS soldiers to make real german units, and how that relates to MP40 being stronger than M4

(We can simply change the bis values right? Altough we better wait for the next patch ) Or possibility is to simply make a pack that uses bis weapon models but own ammo/mag classes?

A suggestion btw... how about versioning ur releases/readmes etc?

[vilas 477]

VILAS_DES - not changed since first release

VILAS_SAH - changed 16-02-07 - better camo of vehicles

VILAS_RUS - 16-02-07 added some units with new weapons as (RPK-74 with 1P29 optics, AK-74 with PSO, AK-74M with 1P29, AKS-74M with Cobra)

VILAS_POL - 16-02-07 added vehicles as desert HMMWV, Landrovers, Mi-8/17, soon with cooperation with other man we will release very good camo of soldiers

VILAS_CWC - added some more units,

VILAS_GUE - 10-02 - replaced AK74 unit with RPK unit and RPD was added

VILWW2 - added feldoficer in cap and splinter instead of steel helmet

VILAS_MOD - of course new weapons and "Hellbringer" - such joke, my Blackop with Atomic RPG launcher

temporary OFP.GAMEPARK.CZ FTP is out because of problems( I am not informatician, I don't know why sometimes it doesn't accept RAR files, and takes only 42 % of file, while bigger ZIP is okay ? )

so now the only FTP with ARMA stuff is ARMAHOLIC

now i am trying to make some missions, but for this topic in "troubleshooting' would be better

horrible performance, CTD after 30 minutes of play and windows go to 1 color DOS mode and needs reset, soldiers don't get out from boat at beach or they get ot in middle of sea and swim without weapons - i tried to make D-Day mission :/

sometimes grenades kill through the wall of building :/

added and my own M16A2 - in BIS model there was misttexture on grip and it was looking bad, my model will be changed when official BIS M16 will be able o open

also there were added magazine models , so Vilas_mod uploaded again

new textures for AK47, new Polish Beryl weapons variants

changes - added Polish army vehicles as on screens

added Soviet weapons with 1P29, PSO, Cobra optics used by Russian units

better shape of steel AK magazines

Lahtani officer in feldmutze

also there is one addon more - doesn't require other addons

http://www.vilas.armaholic.com/vilas_air.rar

and Sahrani pack had notgood camo, now it's better

[vilas 477]

bacause on this forum i cannot give more screens n one post, i have to write new post

[stingfish74 0]

[vilas 477]

[Shashman 0]

Hi Vilas, I just bought ArmA yesterday and downloaded all your stuff which looks really good btw, but I'm a little confused. Right now, I have vilas_mod and vilas_mod_v2.

vilas_mod contains

vilas_config_hard.pbo, vilas_config_easy.pbo and vilas_mod.pbo

vilas_mod_v2 contains

vilas_mod.pbo

Which one do I put in Addons folder?

I also have vilas_gue and vilas_sah

Thanks for your help

[the_shadow 0]

i get a error when trying to start the game with vilas_cwc.pbo and the game wont start...

it sais:

"File vilas_cwc\config.cpp, line 441: /CfgVehicles/VIL_SOLDIERGB8woodcichy.camouflage: Membre already defined"

you might want to take a look at that...

[Col. Faulkner 0]

A small point of detail (disregard if you want, of course):

        The gun you are calling an "L2A3" should really be

given its civilian designation "Sterling Mk.4" in your config.

L2A3 is strictly British military nomenclature, and as such the

gun would not be so described by a foreign police force like

Sahrani's.

       Several of its other real world attributes are also not

correctly modelled by your config settings (but I assume this

is just a "quick and dirty" config to get it into the game

in a hurry).

[Ragox 0]

I just want to say, that I really love your Mod! Keep it up!

@the_shadow: I get that error too. Looks like theres some problem with the vilas_cwc.pbo. Just drag it out of the folder and it works. Im sure, that will be fixed soon, heh vilas

[vilas 477]

Shashman

download all newest from links from first topic

not from other links !

sceond - there are 2 cofig versions for weapons;

- easy - BIS values

- hard - more accurate weapons

what concerns error in CWC , i am sorry there was an error, probably i put wrong file to FTP :/

now good file is in RAR on FTP

[Guest]

just a question....mabey its been asked before...

Are you planning on consolidating all the addons into one or two pbos..... I know its not nice for 56k users... but makes alot more sense IMO to have fewer pbos for alot of addons....

like

vilas_vehicles.pbo

vilas_units.pbo

vilas_weapons.pbo

just a thought..
