As you guys would suspect, we have a pretty indepth roadmap of what we want to release and when...  With each release, there will be a theme so to speak.  We want to get 1 or 2 releases under our belt by adding some content for others to play.  Then we plan on releasing the larger pieces of the MOD.

So to answer one question, we have every intention of including the Marines, the Army, the Air Cavalry, some Navy items, Aussies, Koreans etc until we have all service branches of the Armed Forces included during this period of time.

Khe Sanh will most likely be our first undertaking since we finished OFP with the Khe Sanh Sanh module.  With any luck, we will be able to present the Marines (e.g. Infantry, USMC vehicles, USMC aircraft) to the community and move on from there...

Morale is high and we are moving at a very good pace.  We had some new members join the team that are talented and motivated to move forward as well.  It is a very good working environment and a deep knowledge base as these pictures are starting to show people.  90% of the items being created is brand new for ArmA.  Very little is being retained from our OFP days.

Regarding the performance of the jungles.  This is a very challenging aspect of any Vietnam based MOD.  As you would suspect, it can be the most taxing issue on a computer.  Then trying to create vegetation that is top of the line but that also can run on all machines is "fun."  If you recall or had a chance to play our MOD in OFP, we were able to master that quite well I think, so we are applying our knowledge to creating veg that is playable in the ArmA environment.

So stay with us...   We have some cool stuff being worked on in the motorpool...  Being all NAM nuts, we hope our passion for recreating the war comes through loud and clear...

A lot of people have already asked about further units, but got some questions about the SF.

In the screenies I've spotted the M16A1(my fav), the M14 and a (shortened) M60.

Is this the weapon line up we are going to see with the first release?

Because some of the most used weapons in the SF was offcourse the CAR-15(some with an XM148 grenade launcher), and more or less the M3, M1A1 Thompson and the Stoner MG(SEALs). The G3 was used too, but we can use the one from the Turkish mod.

How's the progress btw on VC/NVA units? Will they make it for the first release?

[Hawkins 8]

Weapons are taken care of, and those are not the only ones you will see in the final pack.

What would the SF be without some worthy opponents? You can be sure that there's some worthy ones out there in the jungle...

Lol Yaciek, I appreciate you are using my old HDT vegetation pack to make screenshots

I do believe our weapon plans are to incorporate basic weapons for both sides, plus some bare SF only guns for now, but don't expect the whole SF line up of rarities, but rather weapons that were more common, at least for the first release.

VC/NVA troops will be present in first release. It's not a mod with just one side.

Awesome work! If there is one era that needs some serious hardworking modders....it's this one.

Is there a possiblity for NVA trackers with K9's? Seem to remember them beeing deployed against the SOG teams. (Is it even possible to leave tracks in ArmA?)

Sandy's, O-2's, Swedish K's, and all the Stoner variations?

Ok...I could go on all day, I trust you'll make a great mod, good luck!

[Gedis 0]

um, i could give my unfinished China Lake 40mm pump-action grenade launcher to you guys, so that you would finish it...  

... and all info about it.

pm me if you are interested.

and also my unfinished M-67 recoilless grenade launcher with info...

i don't have much time and 3d modeling skills...

[MehMan 0]

Don't worry, we have the weapons front covered, but still, you can PM me with some screens.

[Gedis 0]

PM sent. I hope you will make those

[Stelios 1]

Got a small suggestion/question.

Are the weapons gonna have some sort of High Dispersion option? In the jungle the fights are gonna be from a close range, and I don't know if sniper AK's(like normal AI has) is gonna be the best solution for optimal gameplay.

[RUKH 0]

At close range there must be some insane musketesque dispersion for it to even matter

Maybe the new Rommel ai suppression script (no more ai cheats) and the vegetationfix could leave the rifles as is.

[icebreakr 3156]

Lovely stuff, my team can't wait for it and neither do I... I'm surely gonna make a MP campaign for it
