Looks awesome, DLing now

[Panda-PL- 0]

Will try.

I know from screens the weapons are quite pro.

I can't wait for the soldiers, they look totally different than BIS ones and I love the freshness.

The faces remind me of old R6:Rouge Spear.

They also don't look like BF2 models, which is good (I'm tired of BF2).

http://www.bababian.com/phoinfo/A8A9F7AA38271B0C1055C3871449C2AADT

They do look chineese! Which is awesome.

The soldiers need just normal maps for clothes now. You're working really fast. Nice skills there (showed some people how it's done). Can't wait to try them out.

Yes, The soldiers model is also totally new.

I use 25 days in breaktime (20:00-03:00) doing these addons,and go to work at 09:30,I am very tired.

I plan,OPS Uniform includ

Type07 Digital Camo

Old Type87 Uniform (As you see, I like this old style)

Face includ type

Camo

Normal Chinese face

And i wolud like to edit one or two profess combat missions for the addons.

[klamacz 448]

oh yes, something really refreshing at last

I wish it will be used in ECL tournament, they use british forces in OFP, maybe this time we could have more nations and even more variety.

@Fromz: keep it coming mate, great stuff

[Stewy 1]

Fromz, these weapons are INCDREDIBLE! The standard is excellent - all of the weapons are great!

Just curious, where can I find the units in the editor? Blufor? Opfor? Independent? Or aren't they in the pack?

Thanks again mate - the speed in which you've put these weapons together is amazing!

[Panda-PL- 0]

The units aren't released yet, read above.

Fromz, the question about the side is a good one.

I would personally preffer having them on Neutral since then they could fight vs both E and W (which seems OK to me).

Is there something wrong with the downloading link or only I have the problem :S

the pics look very cool looking forward to see you job

[Panda-PL- 0]

@CyDoN

The download is also slow for me, must be normal.

Tested them out.

Just minor crits on animations:

- the handgun slide doesn't move when fired (only when empty).

- handgun slide not animated in 3pp (normal resolution LODs - missing selection?).

- rifles have moving cocking handle but the bolt itself stays locked (althougth I know it is probably to save on polycount).

- sniper rifle's cocking handle cycles very slow (because of slow ROF the reload controller is "slow", can be resolved - had the same problem working on anims for PSG1 in Skaven's pack)

- I am not sure if the rifles have a slide catch IRL but the ones ingame don't have one, is that OK?

On the weapons themselves:

- I have impression the handgun dispersion should be lowered, esspecially when prone. Same would go for the rifles aswell. I would make weapon sway much higher instead so that the weapon is as accurate as IRL but the player is not as accurate as the weapon weapon.

- I love the slow readjust of weapon after firing and the way the weapon jumps when fired in fullauto. Big pluss for the recoils, the feeling is great.

- the MG recoil however - I see you tok BIS approach and gave MG an insane recoil whhen standing. It's the same caliber as rifle and it is heavier so in theory it should have lower reoil... I think you should give it a very high hands sway instead (since it is too heavy to hold steadilly).

It might be just me but I have no idea how to use launcher reticle.

Overally (in short, where I mean "in my oppinion" = imo - means it is not rwally a bug, but personal preference):

+ rifle recoils (that's a big pluss ++)

+ models and textures

+ overall feel, reload and fire sounds etc.

+ reticles (like, wow. Really nice)

- extreme dispersion instead of realistic weapon sway (imo)

- extreme bis-alike recoil or MG when not prone (imo)

- handgun slides not fully animated, small bug with sniper anim

- bolt won't open (too late to change that I think, it's just aesthetics so not really a crit)

One request would be for you to host an unbinarised config, I forgot how to unrap things and I would like to take a look and maybe propose some changes.

the problem with the download for me is that it stops at random points i tried to download it several times but it couldnt work :S

Hey mate, Very Thanks for detailed test

1.The handgun's animate i will fix as better as i can, But i think i need some help,How tosetup the QBU88's faster animation with slow reload? I don't kown how to set a cumstom animate.

2.

Quote[/b] ]I am not sure if the rifles have a slide catch IRL but the ones ingame don't have one, is that OK?

I'm not sure what's your mean?

3.I think the handgun dispersion will lower when i change its ammo int speed to real, 480m/s

4.The MG-QBB95's real recoil is near mine, I think it's OK, The real weapon isn't to big, it's also light on weight.

5.

Quote[/b] ]extreme bis-alike recoil or MG when not prone

- I will fix that

6.

Quote[/b] ]bolt won't open

yes, too late, but, I will try.

7.

Quote[/b] ]unbinarised config

? OK, you can download at Config.rar

8.Thanks again for test,  

[fromz 2]

not ready, But almost, I think it will be very soon

[mechastalin 0]

Weapons are nice my only complaint is the very high dispersion and the poor sound for the sniper rifle. Can't wait for the units!

[ArmaVidz 0]

What a great addon and addition to ARMA Fromz. Great stuff.

Can't wait to try these weaps out and eagerly awaiting the units (when you're done).
