Arma 2 Addon request thread

[evil_brownie 17]

Not exactly, as you don't exactly have a mine clearing vehicle in arma, unless you cheat and make an invicible vehicle to drive other them :D

[max power 21]

I wonder how someone could make any vehicle clear mines in ArmA. You couldn't make it clear berms or breach anything, tho, unless you created special berm objects.

[aspire 11]

Still good for clearing IED's and such, with those fancy rockets dragging exploding ropes after them. Also would be a neat eye-candy vehicle :D.

[evil_brownie 17]

for berms or breaching, yeh you'd need specialized objects that react to a frontal impact, much like the signs or rolled wire, which flatten immediately.

Clearing mines (easy if you just allowdamage false to any armored BIS vehicle; or any other fully enclosed vehicle for, for instance, JTD's mines since they have shrapnel)

Or create a special vehicle that "somehow" only takes damage from sth other than mines, if that is even possible.

i'd request a Saiga 12 shotgun with drum mag, or only the drum mag

and yeah i know ... the HK sight are weird on this

[RabidStoat 39]

Anyone got any better-looking g36's they'd like to share? BIS ones look a little loos-fi compared to everything else in my armoury

[jagheterjan 10]

ACE has a couple variants, BWmod has them and IIRC the FFAA mod comes with a G36E as well.

[RabidStoat 39]

I avoid ACE as my computer can't handle it, but I'll have a ganders at the others, gracias

[EDIT]

BWmod uses BIS models for its G36. Comes complete with see-through handguard and mislabelled G36A.

FFAA does add a little variety and animation to the G36 range, but they still look budget compared to the rest. Shame really, its a weapon system that seems to get little love in this community

i request a artillery boat ... it's a civilian cargo boat with canon on it, simply brilliant

I will be releasing something that will allow you to put vehicles on to do this.

Its actually the same concept as what the Royal Marines did in 44 during the Normandy Invasion, mounting Centaur tanks on landing craft with heavy decks to take the recoil, after the fire support was down they went ashore..

I'm looking for 2 new mods. and I didn't see a mod (add on) request forum, So I didn't know where to post this at.

1) A building Mod, Most of the building in most of the maps in Arma 2 you can't enter. So I wanted some thing to add building in my missions

2) A Mod or add on that adds voice sounds to your missions. These voices should be just basic sounds.

Och!, That had to hurt.

Alert, Armour spotted.

That's a copy, Returning to base

Hold position and wait for orders

Just basic stuff.

Thanks

So what I'm going to request now is something I've had in my mind some time. It's not something small if you think that. What I'm requesting is an archipelago called "Skärö". It's located in the baltic sea, about 70 km from the swedish coast. So what I would like to see is a army with their own unique vehicles and such, unique nothern european buildings, signs and such. There is 3 main islands and one military island where the swedish navy has an Visby class corvette stationed.

​​Language

The ​​language spooken on the island is mostly swedish, but finnish, russian and Tavianian (spooken on -Martins- beautiful Tavianan island) is also common.

Flag

(Made in paint :D)

Army equipment

Tracked vehicles:

Leopard 1

T80

Strv103

Ikv91

BMP1

Pbv302

Bv206

Wheeled vehicles:

BTR60

TGB11

TGB1111

TGB30/40 transport/ammo/fuel/repair

Landrover

Planes:

JA37/AJ37 Viggen

J35 Draken

MiG21

Su24

An-2

C-130

Helicopters:

Mi8

Mi-24D

NH90

Boeing Vertol 107

Infantry equipment:

G3 assault rifle (in the worst case just take BIS FN Fal)

G36 in different versions

Rk95

M16A4/M16A4 GL (No scope)

AK47 (for conscripts)

Kpist m/45

AT4

Carl Gustav M/86

SVD Dragunov

M107

Camouflage:

Mix between M81 woodland and M90 splinter (M81 jacket and M90 pants ect.) All vehicles will have M90 camouflage.

Story:

"Skärö" was a part of sweden from the 1452 to 1948 when sweden finally gave the islanders independence. In 1954 soviet troops tried to invade Skärö but failed due to the resistance. Skärö was said to be the the baltic sheild if the soviets tried to invade sweden. after the fall of the soviet union the Socialist Republic of Taviana started to show agressive acts against Skäro and in 1995 they launched a full scale invason of the island. After 2 weeks of battle sweden intervened to make an end of this war. (This is the reason why they have russian equpment) after that war it has been some provocations between these countries. But in later times some Tavianans have fled Taviana as there have been an coup d'etat and a new rougher leader have started to rule the country.

So if any one snaps this and want to start making this make it good ok? :)

I am Requesting the M60A1 Armored vehicle lift bridge.

With the recent updated version of Helmand Valley, and the mission that I created, it would be complete if I had this added in the mission. For example, one of the missions requires the team to move from one area to the other, but there is a river/ stream blocking your way. Now there is a single man bridge along the way, but the AI always seem to kill my team as we attempt to cross or my soldiers go swimming for 5 seconds and loose their kit along the way, not even a HMMWV can make it across without, taking a crap in the water. This is where I believe a VLB would come in handy. Theres another Island, Panthera I believe, that needs a VLB in it.

Information:

From Wikipedia; An armoured vehicle-launched bridge (AVLB) is a combat support vehicle, sometimes regarded as a subtype of combat engineering vehicle, designed to assist militaries in rapidly deploying tanks and other armoured fighting vehicles across rivers. The AVLB is usually a tracked vehicle converted from a tank chassis to carry a folding metal bridge instead of a turret. The AVLB's job is to allow armoured or infantry units to cross water, when a river too deep for vehicles to wade through is reached, and no bridge is conveniently located (or sufficiently sturdy, a substantial concern when moving 60-ton tanks).

The bridge-layer unfolds and launches its cargo providing a ready made bridge across the obstacle, a process that takes only minutes. Once the span has been put in place, the AVLB detaches itself from the bridge, and moves aside to allow traffic to pass. Once all of the vehicles have moved over, it crosses the bridge itself and reattaches to the bridge on the other side. It then retracts the span ready to move off again. A similar procedure can be employed to allow crossings of small chasms or similar obstructions. AVLBs can carry bridges of 60 feet (19 meters) or greater in length. By using a tank chassis, the bridge-layer is able to cover the same terrain as main battle tanks, and the provision of armour allows them to operate even in the face of enemy fire. However, this is not a universal attribute: some exceptionally sturdy 6x6 or 8x8 truck chassis have lent themselves to bridge-layer applications.

I think that there needs to be a proper GMV like the ones the Green Berets use(d). I know that ACE 2 has a GMV but that GMV isnt like a proper one like the ones from afghanistan in 2002-2006 or something i dont really know the timeline.

I mean i would have so much fun in that.

I just have a simple skin request. Is there any way to get a marine unit that looks exactly like the one in the center of this screenshot:

I know there's units that look similiar, but none that look just like these. Basically I'm just asking for a Force Recon demolitions unit that has a OD green watchcap instead of the black one, a green backpack (I guess you could just use the medic one) and some ear protection like the one in the picture. Can anyone do this for me?

[iceman11a 11]

Well after playing with the First Aid Mod. I think we could use a new one. One that works and the way it should work.

force recon units reskinned? duno, it's really similar, and BI put that poster up with the force recon in mind.. it's not really worth the effort to change a color or two

[Funkman 10]

B2 bomber, that's a good idea...

[arma2freak 10]

I would like to see a metal detector ( not nessaserly working ) - it could be a soldiers Rocket launcher slot, I think this would be good because the patrols and stuff out in the desert and things would make it seem more real as most foot patrols have a metal detector at the front of the column :)

I'd like a M4A1 Aimpoint with a M203 and ANPEQ. Simple as that, Nothing fancy. :)

[kuIoodporny 45]

Zupa, maybe there's one in ACE? :P

[Zupadupazupadude 10]

Zupa, maybe there's one in ACE? :P

I know, RH's pack has one too but i need it with the Vanilla Arma 2 M4 model.

[LANCERZz 10]

force recon units reskinned? duno' date=' it's really similar, and BI put that poster up with the force recon in mind.. it's not really worth the effort to change a color or two[/quote']It's not just changing a color. It's adding a backpack too. Since this is the addon request forum I didn't think it would be a problem, especially if it's so simple

[TaskForce215 10]

Arma could definitely use something armored to flip vehicles that have been affected by the some what spotty physics that pop up from time to time. Not to mention that it would also add to the realism of a convoy or FOB. It would also be amazing if the standard bis or maybe even the ACE repair script could be added as well.

If any one is interested here is a fairly informative page that i pulled the images from...
