And they would still offer better crew protection then those shitty overpriced jeeps the Marines bought to deploy from MV-22s ;)

Bro no one would even dare shoot such a magnificent piece of machinery.

i fixed another bugs noted by Bars91:

1) now AI engages AA from Vulcan - reason was... BIS gave buggy examples , i was using Arma1 example with model.cfg from BIS, it worked in Arma2 but seems not to work in Arma2CO, i had to change memory points in model and now M163 vulcan engages targets by AI

2) Landrover Serie 3 driver on left side in LOD 1.00, memory points now are accurate - driver gets in from right side to Landrovers Serie 3 ,

3) i removed completely "commander" from SA-13, so no bug with commander optics appear in SA-13 , now it has gunner and driver

so i had to update P85_V again (and P85_Config)

about 1h left to upload , thanx for bugs reports Bars91 :)

what concerns BMP1 AT3 rocket - afaik noone was able to do it, even RHS if i remember correctly , due to somekind engine limit seems that rocket proxies disappear only when all magazines are used/empty or rocket is fired from separate slot - as i have in Chaparral AA launcher - Sidewinder disappears, but other not fired remains, BMP has one launcher places, i can only make AT3 disappearing when all AT3 are fired and vehicle is empty from those magazines, even "autoreload=0" doesn't help , currently uploading ,

[bars91 956]

Oh, I completely forgot about the BMP1 AT rocket stuff - as I remember it was a problem ever since OFP. Tho CSLA guys had it solved in their A2 mod (i'm unsure of that, need to recheck).

Meanwhile, i'll be sure to conduct some more bug hunting when I can.

I'm always eager to help however I can since i've been enjoying P85 all the way from A1 days.

[sv5000 127]

Vilas I had a look at the bmp1 missile issue as well, couldn't figure out how its done as well. I think the proxy issue you had with the m162 may be the issue that we are having with the SPG?

[gossamersolid 155]

I know there's a mod out there that has the BMP-1 missile working, maybe it was CWR2?

[katipo66 94]

Hi Vilas,

First of thanks for your mods, i really enjoy using them, secondly i know you cannot help user stupidity but i have downloaded and sometimes re-downloaded all the latest releases but cannot seem to get them to work properly, specifically the P85 mod.

I get errors such as "no entry bin\config.bin/cfgvehicles/p85_nysascope" or "cannot open object p85_wpn3d\p85_rpg26.p3d" and so alot of units have no weapons.

I believe i have downloaded the latest config provided by you a few posts above, i might also add that i place all pbo's into one @vilas mod folder.

Anyway i give up for now but this is more a cry post and wonder if its maybe possible to get one download for everything as im hopeless at multitask?

Cheers :)

[vilas 477]

hmm , Nysa is van from 80s, it is in P85_Cars, so if you have civilian cars, than you have Nysa, what can cause such error ?

maybe there is old version somewhere on disc (in other folder) ?

RPG26 is in file "p85_wpn3d" , maybe there is a mod which holds older config or something like this ?

i can help via skype if you want , PM me i will give Skype contact, first i would like to advice to look in Windows (ctfl+F) to find any files "vil*.pbo" and "p85*.pbo" you have on disc and locate if there are any hidden folder versions

regarding files;

P85_config.pbo - is config file which enables weapons (p85_wpn3d.pbo) and vehicles (p85_v.pbo)

p85 cars contains p85_cars_config and p85_c files - there are civilian cars plus vans plus ambulances (among them Nysa van)

p85_xxx(nations) are "national" files which contain armies of xxx country, Poland uses Nysa as the only country as military ambulance (dark green van)

other "nations" do not use Nysa

RPG26 is used only by USSR troops, not others

i knew that once upon a time Topas had similar error and it was caused by Windows Vista which was somehow keeping files protected before overwrite (overwrite protection by system), Topas was unpacking RAR and still file remained old - i do not know how, now Topas has other system and no problems

but there was such case ,

i know that when i try to send something via skype - than skype make files "write only" and protects them before being deleted or overwritten , and when i send picture by Skype to someone, later i have problems to delete this picture from "my documents"

on Skype i would like than to ask you for screenshots of folders (which contain files, filesize, filedate)

if you run Arma2CO.exe with -mod=@foldername than i do not understand what can cause it, but as i said i can try to help via skype ,

[katipo66 94]

Thanks for your reply and offer of help, believe it or not i dont use Skype!? but you have given me enough clues... anyway i will attempt again later and delete everything and install clean, as i mentioned its has to be user error.

Cheers!

EDIT: Hey bro i deleted everything and did a clean install and everything is working fine, love all the vehicles, i notice not all of them allow turn out but thats no biggie, insane amount of content :D

Ah that bus brings back memories, I was living on an island called Nogova when the soviets invaded....

How about a VW Beatle?

No shit. Are you telling me you knew Victor Troska personally? :rolleyes:

[miraoister 1]

No shit. Are you telling me you knew Victor Troska personally? :rolleyes:

You know the first mission where victor has to chose between helping the rebels or the Russians? I was the guy in the barn, that bastard left me there to die! I wasn't even dead! I was just sleeping!

[vilas 477]

talking about invasion of Nogova.... probably party leaders that time were not driving usual Volgas as low-rank party members, they had better cars to show their party status , like Volga 3102,

97 kb

and in 1985 Gaz 24 was not so rust as on Takistan 25 years later (i cleaned Takistani Volga from rust ) ;)

who knows maybe those who planned inavasion of Nogova even will have Chaika or ZIL limousine in future ;)

[spooky lynx 73]

Nice Volgas:) I think about buying 3102 for myself and making KGB-style car. One mention: there were no window leafs in front doors, the glasses were solid. And the wheels of the cars belonged to senior officials looked like this mostly:

Can the devil drive it?

I have a suggest for a good German civil car, but you work so hard I feel it's rude to request...

[vilas 477]

P85 civilian part is growing, since last update (new year days) there were some more vehicles added (currently still beta cause not fully tested but of course available to play http://www.armaholic.eu/vilas/85temp/p85_cars.7z )

Yes i remember on the CWR2 BMP-1, that AT rocket was working really good. ;)

[schulz 10]

Hey vilas,

how about this one? :D

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trabant_601

[vilas 477]

this one is in CWR and no sense to double it, better use P85 along with CWR2 as one cold war environment (reason of making Mini and Skoda 130L was to deliver Mini and Skoda Rapid to CWR)

http://s27.postimg.org/ley6cfbar/ssp.jpg

next car that enters P85 civilian part, now i think i should made Soviet limousine (to carry party leaders and ... targets for US commando) and more German cars as VW T3, Mercedes W123, Opel Kadett (P85 environment is central europe)
