DID ANYBODY notice when i use for exmp. CDF uaz with dshk there is no gunner aswell for other vehicles when i disable this mod everything is fine

I guess that is not my 88, because I don't use such a texture (unless Rip has added something).

I understand you want to create some missing Brit stuff, but why put effort on some stuff which is here already. Not saying you couldn't do that, but somehow it would feel bit more useful to add something new as you say your mod is to run together this mod ("This addon-Mod is to be used together with 31stWWA2 mod. The Vehicles use the 31stWWA2 Drivers, Gunners, Commanders and Pilots.").

My guess would be that he's been working on the British stuff before the mod was released with the goal to release it to the public?

Found the mod release and used the units to man and use the weapons.

In my opinion the weapons look great.

And to have some of the weapons the brits lacked if great.

The PIAT fits in perfectly with the 44 setting.

The owen was more of a pacific and commonwealth weapon if i recall.

The BOYS A.T rifle was obsolete in 1944 but did see alot of use early in the war in the desert against the lighter armored tanks of the time Panzer I mainly and the Panzer II (if lucky) so these additional weapons in my opinion are a decent boost for the British forces in the mod.

it doesn't overly matter if there are a couple of things with more than one model in the mod.

Vilas weapons were looking dated in ArmA i don't know how they look in Arma II but i wouldn't guess at much better.

The more content the Better :D

Anyways keep up the good work.

The british 50ID soldiers seem nice. But the officer looks not correct in color of beret. In addition, could you please also remove the soviet ammo pouch from the kits of those soliders?

Greetz Waxbutter

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

will do

More bug reports :

- when placing empty 31stWC => Flak36 8.8cm the following message appeared :

"cannot load material file ca\wheelded\data\mhhwv_regular_1.rvmat"

- I jumped out of an airplane with alliedchute, landed in a heavely wooded area.

The chute bounced on top of the trees (collision detection), finally killing me.

(maybe decrease the size of the geometry)

Will fix this tonight and include it in the patch

when I try to use the pak38 in the editer the I get a ctd

I will look into this. Can anyone else replicate this ctd?

Can you tell me if you are using other mods? Also when does it specifically happen?

thanks

Odd problem with Bofors AA gun, firstly you can't kill the gunner when hes in place, bullets go straight through him. Secondly, if I get in and move the gun at all and then tell an AI to get in, he pops right back out. (This was using the 50th British units, didnt test any others).

[zio sam 77]

is there any public and populated server running this beatifull mod?

[B17gunner98th 10]

I will take a look at this later this evening and if I can figure out something there will be a fix. There will be a fix for sure for the gunner not dying while hit.

Updated mission: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=9787 Black out Co-13 (@) Thanks gunner

[rowdied 44]

only the Normandy map could need a grass surface insted of the dark mud color it have now

Indeed, it looks so dark when you look over a big field etc..:)

It's the sat mask that does that. I can lighten it up and add more colors to it.

Please do:D I find it gets darker the longer I play and interferes with scoped weapons also.

Great Release even though its a beta!!!!!!

Hey Rip31st.

I downloaded this mod when it was first released. Have you done more detailed work to the Normandy map rather than a bunch of trees and bushes formed in H's and made towns like Carentan historically correct?

This is not meant to rag on the mod... I actually want to know because I was excited for the map... and then it was a bit of a let down with the lack of detail. I understand the map is HUGE, but you can advertise and sell a much better mod with just the map alone being worked on.

[Darkhorse 1-6 16]

I think they are working on fixing all the bugs before the overhaul the map.
