waylay00 0 Posted September 28, 2009 When I was a newcomer to ArmA, this list really helped me out to get started with mods/addons. I don't see one for ArmA 2 though. :( http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=71981 So, what do you guys suggest as "essential" addons/mods? I like things that add realistic effects, like tracers, etc... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alex72 1 Posted September 28, 2009 When that list was made by my mate Da.D ArmA had been out for a long time and there were litteraly millions of addons. Thats not really the case now. To get a good understanding of what to get atm, and to ALWAYS stay de jour with addons check WWW.ARMAHOLIC.COM's news. I dont understand ARMA gamers that doesnt check the news there EVERY DAY as that will keep you up to date. ;) I got about 50-60 addons and im not in the mood atm to start printing the essentials of them down. Sorry mate. Maybe tomorrow. Alex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alex72 1 Posted September 29, 2009 Tomorrow is here. Essentials: Kju's Object Draw Distance Addon - (See objects further away) Kju's Low Visuals Addon - (more performance) Piccoly's LandTex addon - (Ground texture for Chernarus) JTD Fire & Smoke - (Awesome fire & smoke) Sound Of War - SoundMod Essentials for me give more performance, make the game look better, give nice effects and nice soundeffects wich these does. Besides them i use a lot of other addons that even further bring a nicer gaming experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SASrecon 0 Posted September 29, 2009 you should try to advertise this in the mods suggestion topic, while im here i'll say what i think should be included =) ARMA1 units ported over, i know the models are different but if anyone could do this i would be VERY happy, also i think sakura chan is/was working on basic pilot G-force effects here this is for ARMA1 but i'm sure it could be applied to ARMA2. Also this radar would be excellent again, this is an ARMA1 video but i'm sure it would work in ARMA2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
