Thanks. This helps.

So it substitutes the normal M4s family weapons with the new ones made by RH ?

Exactly. I replaced as many as I could. You can ofcourse use any kind of ballistic/better optics/sound addon with this.

[Alex72 1]

Thanks Cole for yet another nice replacement config! :)

Excellent work sir :)

I guess this will be your replacement file home for other things too?

Thank You and yes, once I finish up the soundmod replacement and possibly the SBR one (If I get suggestions what to replace with SBR's, as I'm absolutely clueless on that) and there's going to be more weapon packs with high-detail vanilla ArmA2 equivalents (such as RH's AK pack), I'll keep posting them here* :)

* I'll change the thread name for that ofcourse, so people don't get confused.

Thank you for this but can you change it so the m4's with camo get replaced with the ones that RH made?

I've left that out for 1.0 because RH didn't add woodland camo weapons (although he planned those), but I'll replace them with the classic black weapons in an optional config for the next release.

Thanks Cole for the Replacement. Using Now

Yes thank you cause i dont really care about the camo, i just want to use the new silenced m4 versions.

[Binkowski 26]

Thanks for this cole.

hi cole

i was wondering if you could update the pack as it seems to have a config bug problem some of the weapons have changed but no ammo is present on the load screen say somthing like not present config/bin/m16a4 be really greatfull

Thanks for making the replace back nice to se rh weapons back

lee

[Hvymtal 1251]

so, I'd like to ask you guys:

Which models would you like to be replaced with the SBR variants?

frankly, any FR guy who has a camo M4 and no GL or Silencer

[Alex72 1]

Hey Cole buddy. Any idea why this wouldnt work?

Slapped RH's weapons and your config into the same folder and it doesnt replace. Dont know why. No other weapon packs or replacements etc loaded. Did test with some USMC guys that carry the same weapons, but no luck in replacements.

Any idea?

Yea I have that problem also, and some of my men spawn injured now hehe. Its a great concept though and i'm sure you'll have the bugs ironed out pretty soon.

[D.Sloane 12]

i think sbr models can be replaced with camo painted m4's.

Uh, that's sure weird, I didn't get any errors at all on my end when testing :butbut:

- Are you guys patched up to 1.04? Full release or a newer beta build?

- Are you using any other addons?

--- If you are, please disable try using only RH's M4/M16 pack and my replacement to see if the problem persists.

Edit: Holy shit, you're right O_o I bet it's the damned binarization of the config.

Edit 2: Standby, I'm working on a fix.

[Alex72 1]

Oh yeah sorry about that. Is playing the beta v59210 (best performance for me so far).

Did you find something wrong?

EDIT: Nvm *fixing it* :) Thanks a lot bud.

[leephilipclegg 0]

Cheers cole look forward to the up date i thought the same thing took all my addons off even reinstalled the game same problem was coming up and it on 1.04 understandable though these config files can be difficult

thanks again lee

[cole 0]

News: Thanks to zGuba (I love you man! in a totally heterosexual way :p) the config is now fixed.

I've also done another one to replace the camo M4's as requested and I'm going to do one more which also includes M4A1 SBR instead of M4A1 CCO Camo. Hopefully I can pack it all up and release in a few minutes :)

[Fansadox 0]

Good news thanks buddy

1.1 Released!

Head over to the first post to get it!

New items are marked blue on the first page for easier recognition.

Sorry for the trouble with 1.0 release.

Also, I'd like to thank zGuba for fixing what I broke again! Wielkie dzięki! :)

[Alex72 1]

Thanks man. And no problems at all. Great thing your doing. ;)

EDIT: To me only the SAW seems to be replaced. If i place the standard infantry group made by BIS it should replace most of them right? Only the automatic rifle guy gets a new one. Maybe i got some addon that is conflicting. I got no weapons addons however. Only RH and the rest is vehicles, units, landtex, drawdistance, lowvisuals, soundmod. Cant see what would mess with it. Using no replacements either apart from yours.

Will test remove my addons 1 by 1. Gonna take some time lol.

Found the "problem". First off to my naked eye in 1st person the weapons replaced look very similar so i didnt notice there. The second more obvious thing to not understand it was replaced is that the sound is not from the RH pack... When i put it in a box and take it out it gets the RH sounds.

So - your right Cole. It does work. Only the sound doesnt come along. But there was some sound config also i saw now. Or did see anyway before.

[skooma 10]

It doesn't seem to work. I have both RH's pack and this config. I plopped down a standard USMC rifleman in the editor and he still has the vanilla M16A4.
