FN-FAL Weapon Pack

[R0adki11 3949]

Well here is some progress of a weapon pack that i released for OFP as part of my Nogovan Light Infantry 2.0 addon, well im planning to import these weapons over to ArmA once i have the necessary permissions sorted out, then the task of getting them to work in Arma.

Well here are some links to some screenshots

The Weapon Types, i intend to Release are:

FnFAL in 20rd and 30rd Versions

FnFAL M203

FnFAL LMG Version

FnFAl Silenced

FnFal Scout

FnFal Scout Silenced

FnFal Short - folding stock rifle

The one with the M203 looks strange... Isn't the launcher too far away from the mag? Rest looks fine!

I remember using those in OFP and noticing they had a LOT of bad UV mapping issues. I really hope those can get sorted out before they get ported over.

That being said, I'd love to see them ported over

Thanks Ebud

@Sled88 yea the M203 may look odd because as far i know the only version of an FNFAL(L1A1) m203 was used by the Australian SAS during Vietnam and as of yet i haven't found any pictures of one. Even in the Falklands the British troops didnt have an L1A1 M203, most troops used the M79, so at the moment its abit of a mystery of how an FNFAL M203 would work and it would also be damn heavy too.

Anyway I think you should get it a bit near the mag!

Continue your nice work!

PS: Found this pic but the launcher doesn't look like a M203

EDIT: It's a XM148 I think... Also used on M16A1's

You should fold the carrying handles down! Not only would

they catch on things sticking out like that, but you'd risk the

thing moving down with vibration as the gun fired and then

getting cases hitting the handle and bouncing back.  

Also the carrying handle on your HB variant is too far back.

You'd have difficulty carrying the rifle with it as it would tip

forward too much. FAL HB variants use a special handle

arrangement that shifts the point of balance further forward

than the LAR variants; to balance the weight of the heavier

barrel (some even have the grip facing forwards - the 50.41

model or the Israeli HBs, for example). Unless this is meant to

be a LAR with a bipod jury-rigged on, in which case this

criticism is unwarranted.

That GL in the picture is the Colt XM148, used by NZ and

Australian SAS in Vietnam.

Edit: The British did in fact make a lot of use of the American

M16/M203 combination. It was carried not only by special

forces units like  SAS, SBS and Parachute Pathfinders, but

also by regular infantry toms. It was even carried in Northern

Ireland in rural areas although the ROE meant that the IRA

would have almost had to have been threatening us with

nuclear weapons before we could have started lobbing 203

bombs back at them).

hahaha funny comment dirty harry! but imo the stuff looks good but im no guns expert but clean up the white parts and do as the others said and i think they will be perfect.

[R0adki11 3949]

There is a lot of work to do on them to get them up to an ArmA standard, and as at the moment they are on the sidelines as it were as i am in final yr at uni so lots of work to do

[Curatalo 0]

Got a question for yah my hows it going & have you figured out how to fix the muzzle flash is it a CFG job or a option in O2? as im having some probs with my pistol muzzle flash.

Hey JanMasterson..Nice picture... What the hell kind of "Clothing" is she wareing? i want the name im gonna buy one for my GF.. (i'll probably have to force it on here though..ah some one has to do it..)

[R0adki11 3949]

I have not even got them imported into Arma as of yet, they are still in the same stage as the above screenshots this is because im in my final year at Uni, and also i suffered a hard drive crash and have not reinstalled OFP so i can use O2, as i have far too much work todo, they will be worked on again when i find the time

[Commando84 0]

aww damn they look so nice...

[R0adki11 3949]

This project is halted at the moment, the models are in 02, but as i don't have armed assault, since my PC will not run it as of present. If some one is interested in getting these in to Arma please message me.

[R0adki11 3949]

Project restarted with my Nogovan Light Infantry addons, expect screenshots soon
