Arma 2 Addon request thread

how about some some muthaf*ckin aliens?

battle:LA trailer for added inspiration

doesnt have to be anything fancy, just unfamiliar and REALLY powerful to simulate the difference in technology. being independent would be good as well, gives the russians something to fight too.

[sweguy96 10]

The MD-500/MD-500 Defender would be nice for NAPA.

PLA !!! We had someone start working the PLA but just dropped it. Can't anyone start making some more chinese addons. The PLA now only has a tank, apc, a couple car/jeeps/ and helicopter. Can't someone make a couple jets, or attach helicopters, or bigger transport helis? I want to use them but the way they are now isn't very practical for a campaign. No statics, or HQs, or Warfare buildings. etc. AT least some jets.

And maybe some more aircraft for takistan. Like Mirages or things that are modern. The way they are set up. They really are not much of a threat to warrant all the BLUFOR that is out there.

I like the enterable buildings ideas but they need to fix things. As it is, I tried Populating Feruz Abad in Takistan. putting soldiers in buildings so i can have a good house to house type fight, but it doesn't work. Every AI walk off the sides of the terraces. They walk through fences and gates. Even if i put sandbags they still walk through them.

So i'd like to see better AI abilities for entering those buildings and using them. They don't go in unless you tell them to. Once in a while they walk in if a formations puts them in a doorway, but don't go upstairs to get better view or anything. So AI building behaviour would be good.

There's a huge PLA addon made by fromz with custom models and everything. You should check it out.

Enad you dumb yankee. He mentioned Fromz's mod, but said it wasn't good enough.

I am requesting a map addon for the Korean Peninsula. It should be large enough for so that artillery cannot hit targets all the way into the two sides territories from the border.I would figure a map that by scale would be atleast 200 Miles long for each country and about 50 Miles wide, that is large enough for an aircraft to have to actually expend some fuel and the use of artillery will be a must, yet it cannot dominate the battle. In this map, each side should have at least 6 decent size airfields, with at least one in each side being a VERY large airfield. There should be included a detailed layout of the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) which would include watch towers, mine fields on both sides, a detailed city of Panmunjom. The infiltration tunnels should be included, at least one or two for fun. The border (and I have seen it) is only marked by a simple barbed wire fence and yellow signs. The major cities of Seoul and Pyongyang should be included, and within the North, you would have one two prison camps since we all know what kind of place North Korea is like. Within Northern cities, you would have statues and objects that make up a communist/stalinist atmosphere. The south would resemble a modernized society, with the look to go with it.

This addon would not be complete without the military units from North and South. Anyone would be able to augment them with use of the editor with whatever they would want to add. I truly think that this would make one serious addition to the ARMA2 game. The potential for some serious campaigns being designed from this addon is limitless.

I agree, compared to Operation Flashpoint and even ArmA1 there aren't enough sci-fi addons or at least future weapons and technology. I know this is a military sim, but who says it always has to be present day or past technology in use. Let's get some futuristic addons going.

Maybe go watch some animé for inspiration or movies like the one listed above.

While I'm here, I do have 2 specific addon requests.

1. Dr. Who (Tom Baker) civilian/independant and a TARDIS complete with sounds. Maybe something in the action menu that will play the Dr. Who theme song…kind of like how the Airwolf Supercopter plays it's theme. Maybe a Dalek for him to fight. "Exterminate! Exterminate!"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3iBUL0nRm8

Oh come on! Who here doesn't like the classic Dr. Who?!

2. If someone can get a hold of Ghost and see about updating his Vf-1s Valkyrie so it's Gerwalk/Fighter transformation works in ArmA 2. It keeps wanting to change into Gerwalk mode once you get up off the ground and won't change back into fighter mode. That addon looks totally schweetz in this video. It deserves a 2nd life in ArmA 2.

Hm I know, I had a look into the config, I even extracted the MLOD (yeah Im a bad boy I know) to check for missaligned LODs, but compared to the F-35 I couldnt find anything wrong.

Try to ask .ghost. about it, hes on the armedassault.info boards.

[Laqueesha 474]

I concur with the aliens. Imagine BLUFOR and Independent fighting against a massive alien force. :D

[Golf 10]

Any new Raf aircraft would be good for example

or

[topas 1]

M1008 CUCV, something I wish for since OFP...

Free of license meshes are available on numerous 3D sites. The above is a quick import into Oxygen

[ebanks129 10]

Was someone working on this?

Or more variations of the MRAPS

[breeze 0]

Well that robot addon is nice looking a little to futuristic for me but it was certainly done well, Hey can you mod a Harrier to take off Vertically like they are supposed to be able to do? That would be very nice especially since a lot of islands only have one airport. I mean that transformer airplane looks like it can do anything it wants.??

[Altimeter 10]

Hey can you mod a Harrier to take off Vertically like they are supposed to be able to do?

The do take of vertically....Just activate autohover :rolleyes:

[Coldwar fanatic 10]

Has anyone considered trying to do a Korea map and add the North and South Korean military units? Would make an awesome addition to Arma2, in it, there should be of course a pretty big map, you dont want to have just one or two artillery pieces dominating the battlefield and and aircraft should actually have to burn some fuel going from one end to the other. Include in it a detailed layout of the DMZ, Panmunjom, to include a fence line separating North and South Korea. Make sure each side has atleast 4 to 5 decent size airfields and possibly in the lower corner, a small piece of land with another airfield so you have a place for US units to mobilize.

[breeze 0]

I should have been more clear, I want the AI to be able to take off in them vertically. I don't think that's possible

I completely agree with you. Operation Halfmoon is excellent for small arms and units but with only the ZTZ-99 and ZSL-92 for armor and the Z-9 for aircraft it's not realistic to expect decent missions to be made for this addon. So despite the extremely high quality work Fromz put in it's currently more of an Operation Half-finished.

The last patch of OHPLA even had a mandarin voice pack but they don't seem to work in OA.

Just getting a WZ-10 gunship would be brilliant although I'd like to see the following vehicles for a "complete" PLA side:

WZ-10 attack helo

ZBD-97 (very similar to BMP-3)

PGZ-95 (Similar to a Tunguska)

PTL-02 (like a Stryker MGS or an AMX-10RC)

ZLC-2000 (like a BMP-2)

Mi-171 (reskinned Mi-17)

ZTZ-96 (cheap version of ZTZ-99)

J-10 and/or J-11 (reskinned Su-27 would do)

Does anyone know if VME-PLA or OHPLA is still active? If they are I'll shutup and go back to waiting patiently.

[sweguy96 10]

I'd like to see some more CDF stuff. Like a reskinned L39, BTR60, maybe an Leopard 1,

M60 patton, T80U and some soldiers with M16A2/M16A2GL. Also an old F16 in CDF colors would be nice. The MD500 wouldnt hurt to.

[Laqueesha 474]

Actually, they won't take off VTOL, but rather STOL.

Indian Special Forces units

Hi

I would like to include some units of the Indian army para-commandos and RR COIN units involved in Kashmir in certain custom missions. I would like to know if it is possible to edit in-game BI soldier models without any legal ramifications.

I apologise in advance if I am asking a question in the wrong forum or if this has been asked before. Here are some pics of Indian special forces. Could you help me out by notifying me in-game units (arma 2 and OA) or any user made units that are remotely similar to these so that Itll be easier to edit them?

Thanks

Pictures of Indian special forces..Note: the bandana, the TAR-21 assault rifles and the 'Patka' Helmets (the circular band around some units head) also the unique camo patter, dont know what it's called

Get in, activate Autohover, press Q. It will rise vertically in the air
