Today we, Red Hammer Studios, would like to make our very first (and definitely not the last) release in ArmA2. Meet the vehicle, that some of you were waiting for some time already. Yes, It's the BMD-2, made by common efforts of the following RHS members: Soul_Assassin, topas and ist. It features not only the excellently crafted model with more than dozen of varients and extremely detailed and crisp textures, but also a bunch of special features, which allow you to use this IFV effectively in combat and customize it's visual look for your own taste. No need to further praise it to the skies - just grab it and see everything yourself! Some of the features of this addon: - A completely new and accurate model and textures - Custom animations for crew and cargo - Custom special effects such as muzzle flash and cartridge ejection - An advanced marking system in the form of rhs_decals - Variable clearance - Over 15 different versions with 10 camo patterns For further details please read the extensive README.

Alex72 1 Posted March 7, 2010 You guys have no idea what kind of perfectionist people worked on this addon. Want to have a hint? Several alpa, 7 beta releases, 3-5 readme fixes and many more... No i do understand from looking at the addon. ;) Amazing quality all around. Im still just looking at it in awe. Tested a small thing since my pc doesnt operate normally atm, but put 1 Ukraine BMD out with me inside it and then a couple of russian BMD's. The ruskies killed me even though i was independent and set to friendly to all. Anyhoo, great addon. This is standard setting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soul_assassin 1750 Posted March 7, 2010 Thanks everyone for kind words! It's been a hell of a ride. Considering that BMD1 took me a full year to get finalized, the 3 months it took to make this from start to finish was kind of a headrush. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flash Thunder 10 Posted March 8, 2010 Wow simply excellent mod, kudos to you and your team, I love the case ejections, big ass pile of them all over the place, adds alot to the immersion. Hoping to see some more of your work. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VKing 12 Posted March 8, 2010 Ah, eexcellent! Now give us some of those infantry so we can replicate your screenshots (damn false advertisment :p) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desmondb 10 Posted March 8, 2010 (edited) the models look VERY nice :cool: but it doesn't look like the AI know's how to use them, just did several quick play tests and they barely engage enemy AI, I just tried an AI CDF BMD-2 vs a Russian BMD-2 and they just look at each other, anyone else seeing this? Also, even after the BMD-2 is destoyed, helos seem to continue to shoot at it with their cannon even if the vehicle is already burning and all of the crew is dead.
