mcnools 62 Posted June 21, 2007 Having carpet-bombing B52's would be pretty neat though. F2 Phantoms could be good for napalm perhaps. Also, river-boats and long rivers are a must. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canis lupus 20 Posted June 22, 2007 @GranQ I think he goes under the name Tales of war, his website seems to be down but you could try the ofp.info's forum and see if he's still there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
granQ 293 Posted June 23, 2007 is Tales of War a OFP mod??? yes.. or "was" knew old tracer that was partly modleader.. but thats it, and thats maybe 4 years ago.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canis lupus 20 Posted June 23, 2007 Do you need TOW's help or just his permission to use his stuff, because I read in another thread (no idea wich) that if you are unable to contact an addon maker its allright to use his work, as long as long as you remember to give the right credits...

He shared it once with VTE; so i am positive he wants to share it with VTE for ArmA. It doesn't make it 100% legal really.. but sometimes whats right isn't whats right Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hypno toad 0 Posted June 25, 2007 I have some suggestions, you should reskin the racs, and use those for the GIs, they will look alot like real vietnam GIs. -you should make sure to add napalm -here is a link for the info you asked for. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weapons_of_the_Vietnam_War BTW I love the sound you have for the fighter planes, sounds totally awesome.

The_Nebula 0 Posted June 25, 2007 Looking very nice! Any idea of a BETA or a 0.1 release? This mod is looking very sexy, can't wait! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The-Architect 0 Posted June 25, 2007 It's a long way off at the moment. Thius thread is simply to thrash some things out. Patience my dear man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
granQ 293 Posted June 25, 2007 hopefully before the tools are released. We haven't decided this yet really.. but my personal aim is to get this released.. "as is" and not wait for the "when its done". So we working on deciding now what should be in a first release and what shouldn't. Somethings can be kinda crappy quality but atleast everything we will include should be 100% working, and all done in code, so we later "just" have to add/replace models.

kutya 0 Posted June 25, 2007 It would be nice, not terribly important if you could add that (don't know the name) larger boat that has a couple of MG's and a version with a helipad. (I think) CSJ made it for OFP. I like that boat because it can take a team of 12. In VTE 0.3 and older versions I missed a bit a boat that can take the whole team. Altough AA isn't limited to a team of 12, I'd still like to roam the jungle rivers with that boat. It has also some armor that can be raised/lowered. I don't speak about the first AA VTE version, it's about a somewhat extended version that isn't rushed. EDIT: I wouldn't complain about going in two PBR's if the AI wouldn't be a crappy sailor.

hund 0 Posted June 25, 2007 Looking forward to VTE for arma (of course). But as for character models (guys with guns), are these going to be ported over. Dunno much about it, but judging from the amount of little-green-dude-addons released so far, I'd guess that it's not as easy as porting over vehicles. If so, are we going to be using reskins for the first while, until the (now infamous) tools get released? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
granQ 293 Posted June 25, 2007 If so, are we going to be using reskins for the first while, until the (now infamous) tools get released? exactly. http://granq.se/files/vte/gi_joe.jpg thanks to hypno toad for the tip to use this model.. i think it looks OK, sure it isn't perfect but it what we have at present.

Guest Ti0n3r Posted June 25, 2007 Hey that looks pretty good for a re-texture of a modern unit. Just one question; are you going to use BIS values for weapon recoil, damage etc? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
granQ 293 Posted June 25, 2007 we gonna make our own values for sure, how much tweaking we will do for the first release I don't know, nor do I know in what direction we want to move it. Personaly I am happy with most recoils and stuff in arma but you can follow that discussion at this thread: http://tactical.nekromantix.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21171 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Ti0n3r Posted June 25, 2007 Alright, thanks GranQ. Personally I'm very happy with BIS values. Maybe you could create a poll here on the BIS forums about it? Nice weapon load out btw. Really looking forward to the first release Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Reskin looks good, but you should make multiple types of helmets.. Maybe a green metal one, with mesh over it, and one with a camoflauge fabric texture.. Look at this vid, it gives you good views of the uniforms and helmets... Plus it is a really asome clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjYhTnh6Zaw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hund 0 Posted June 25, 2007 As for weapon specs, I was hoping that we'd see a return of the good ol' high bullet dispersion - I had loads of fun in the jungle with bullets and stuff zipping all over the place in the original. With default BIS values, it would make for some much shorter and bloodier battles due to aimbotting AI, which (in my opinion) isn't really the way to go. 100,000 rounds per kill and some mad minutes, that's the stuff!

I would help If I could... I could build house models, the only problem Is that I do not know how to add all of that stuff to armed assault.. one last thing, you should reskin the SLA to make the NVA soldiers. here are some pics, you probably have time to look at those, plus they are more useful that videos Real NVA http://www.granddadshobbyshop.com/DML03308.jpg SLA sniper Shot at 2007-06-25 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
