6thSense.eu Mod Reloaded, Public Beta Release

[wipman 1]

Hi, if someone can send me those M14/M21's, i could try to retexture

'em as i did with "my" M4's pack for the OFP; Desert Camo, Woodland

Camo and this time... maybe Woodland Marpat too. Will be nice i think.

Let's C ya

I doubt that wipman. They use tiled textures to save the sizes. Both wood and composite. You'd have to remap them first, that wouldn't be a simple retexture.

[wipman 1]

Hi, i don't know how to retexture, that's why i always need of a 3D

man (better a 3D's girl) to do "my" things; but i do know how to

retexture. Those who know my OFP M4A1's pack know it. Let's C ya

After I return this Friday I will create proper update with some added stuff if possible.

Quote[/b] ]do the weapons added have shadows?

Most have shadows nowadays, some older ones might be repaired or replaced in the future, though it has little priority.

[sniper pilot 36]

Where are the hk416's located? i cant seem to find them at all...

EDIT: And how can i get the 3D editor to work? Thanks!

[Scrub 0]

Shweet! Good work! (deleting Armaeffects modfolder)

My only issue with all your hard work is the length of the tracer models. When they do a short bounce after impact, it looks a bit like a neon compass needle spinning. Have them currently disabled, but would like to reenable them in the future . If I remember correctly, like BN880's version from OFP, you started with particle effects. Except for maybe added lag, IMHO these would be more fitting (and round) for the tracers especially when they bounce.

Either way, 6th Sense has the solid feature base that ECP had for OFP, and gaining ground with the inclusion of ArmA Effects (now if DMarkwick and MaddMatt would team up, we'd have killer x2 effects).

[Maximus-Sniper 0]

Hi m8

Thanks for the new update (v.0.94)

What about adding Iraqi T-72 by Plasman(v.1.1) and gmJamez's SightAdjustment (v.0.3 Beta) ?

Cheers

[sickboy 13]

v0.94update

[*]Few weapon fixes

[*]Updated M60A3 to v1.2 (thanks to Maximus Sniper)

[*]Changed groupmarker script to display vehicle marker when leader is in vehicle, even when he's not Commander/Driver/Gunner

[*]Fixed wrong weapons on some SLA Characters, missing grenadelaunchers

[*]Added RACS WeaponBox

[*]Switched RACS AutomaticRifleman M249 to Hk23e and MachineGunner M240 to M60

@Sniper Pilot:

I removed the 3d editor, as it's "useless" in the sense that you can't save ur work

The Hk's are in the weaponboxes: West, All and Special.

Don't trip over the amount of weapons available in the boxes, especially the All box :P

@Scrub:

Thanks mate! I feel extremely honored by you mentioning ECP!

Though don't be mistaken, those guys were(/are?) the real pro's...

Really great and polished products, while mine imho is still more a toy, polishing goes along the way...

but I have dreams and a lot of intentions so let's see where we get ;P

BN's tracers were models and not particles.

When toying with particles I was only able to create "balls" (If anyone knows other options, feel free to jump in).

To actually create a "line" effect I had to spawn many balls very quickly. The problems with these were:

[*] Only looks good when FPS is high, let's say 30 and up

[*] Only visible when FPS was above 20 or so

[*] Extreme performance drain. My high end system cooped it pretty well, but anything less had dramatic performance decreases. Esp with high-rof weapons aswell as multiple weapons firing.

In the future I intend to search for new methods and/or optimizing the current method, maybe tweaking the speed check might help... e.g. deleting the tracer quicker (when bullet speed becomes under xx speed). Maybe the lengths need some more tweaking... Stay tuned

DMarkwick & MaddMatt indeed would make a nice hybrid, who knows what the future brings

@Maximus;

NP mate!

About the iraqi t72; Maybe.

In any case I would first need the permission, but the main point imho is that 6thSenseMod at this time is set in Modern ArmA: West, SLA, Racs aswell as some elements of Coldwar: West, East, Guer.

Iraqi doesn't fit in yet, so doesn't for instance the UN Troops, German units, etc. etc.

However, when there's a bigger arsenal available for any Army, may it be Germanny, UN, Vietnam ERA etc, I plan to ask permission and get it in. It just seems to have little use to get 1 Iraqi unit in

About the sightadjustments, im not sure about multiplayer compatibility, and I need to be careful with integrating too many scripting solutions...

It would be cool if we could get config solutions, maybe engine updates for creating the same effects.

I must admit that I have not taken a serious look yet, but I will take a look soon.

My AI-Manager project has been halted for too long and I would like to start dedicating most of my time in it as I think that there is still a lot of work to be done for AI, which in turn will create a better and staying pleasure boost I have a lot of time on my hands, but it's being drained by many projects aswell as the 6th community

[NoRailgunner 0]

Nice! Would be very good if you can make v1.0 as an full/final Mod and then maybe again for v2.0 ...

[sickboy 13]

6thSenseMod is an ongoing project, I don't work towards "final" releases, I also do not have the intention for it (yet),

at least not as long as im the only guy behind the mod

However, I release full setups every 10 update versions atm.

This time there were quite some big updates in the last 10, in those cases I should maybe release a full pack per 5 instead of 10

[NoRailgunner 0]

That's it... and release this 6thSense.eu Weaponpack full with this HK416 (6 models), 2 new M14 camo's, 2 new M21 (Leupold) camo's.

Sad thing to download XX(+X) MB for Addons, but this is on BIS and "the release of tools".

[sickboy 13]

As written before, they will be released asap. However, there is some more fine tuning and various tweaks and additions underway, I expect within the next few weeks I can release an update.

Your last sentence I do not understand though, I don't know any reason for what I would need any of the ArmA BIS tools for releasing 6thSenseMod etc

[NoRailgunner 0]

Sorry, my last sentence wasn't point at your Mod!! Only for Mission making... size of addons in ArmA compared to OFP addons.

dl & waiting for 6thSense.eu Weaponpack! Thanks.

Hi sickboy

New update from Rellikki. Royal Army Corps Sahrani Urban Warfare Units v.1.1

Cheers

[3k.Baxter 0]

Hi sickboy

Is there any way to enable the radio voices and text for "9 oclock soldier". It apperas that its missing, all i get is the compass, but no direction or text message?

[sickboy 13]

@Maximus-Sniper

Thanks mate, will include it in one of the next updates.

@3k.Baxter

Sure mate, you can re-enable the radio voices by uncommenting (removing the 2 slashes (//)) in SIX_Misc.hpp located in your ArmA\@6thSenseMod folder.

Change: <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">//#define SIX_ENA_VOICE to <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">#define SIX_ENA_VOICE

Re-enabling Radio voices can be done by removing @6thSenseMod\Addons\Language.pbo

If you ever plan on playing at 6thSense.eu Server 2, I would recommend backing up the language.pbo before removal, as we Command with voice-only, and play without AI :P

Im just thinking that it might be possible for me to also make an option like the radio voices, as the stringtables also accept processing directions, I might in the future work this out.

[3k.Baxter 0]

@sickboy, Ive done #define SIX_ENA_VOICE but dont notice any diff. And i dont have the @6thSenseMod\Addons\Language.pbo file.

[sickboy 13]

@sickboy, Ive done #define SIX_ENA_VOICE but dont notice any diff. And i dont have the @6thSenseMod\Addons\Language.pbo file.

Have you by change got another SIX_Misc.pbo in one of ur normal addons or other mod folders? In that case it might overwrite the 6thSenseMod setting and as it only needs to be loaded once, do not load SIX_Pack1 or any of it's components over 6thSenseMod.

Also, please check your @6thSenseMod\Addons folder for files called: voice/voices.pbo and six_voice.pbo, if those files exist, please remove them also. They were removed in one of the updates, but it's possible that the installer did not take good care of it

I might be confused with the language.pbo :P Please try removing @6thSenseMod\dta\bin.pbo , guess my memory is playing tricks on me :P

Also, please make sure you are up2date at the latest 6thSenseMod version (atm v0.94)

[3k.Baxter 0]

Dont have the .pbo files. I did remove the bin.pbo, and the radio messages are back. However the voices are not. Not that big of a deal but if you have time to investigate how to get the voices back ill appreciate it!

In all i think we share the same taste of mods. Keep up the good work!

[scubaman3D 0]

So, FOR MY OWN PERSONAL USE, I made an HK417 from Garlay's 416 and M21 mag.

I don't plan on distributing this work but whats the policy on modding released addons in this fashion?

Is it generally acceptable?

Also, I'd be happy to give you the models I modded if you'd like to include it in your weapons pack (and as long as its ok with the modder).
