Persian Hammer

[Binkowski 25]

good stuff. i'll send your screenshots of those 80s guys i was working on awhile ago. at least with dcu / bdu you don't have to worry about the community crying about brightness that you can't control.

[Darkhorse 1-6 16]

Nobody ever cried... Whimpered maybe. ;)

Looks good. Loving the huey.

Glad to hear this is so far along. Cant wait. Sounds like it should be good fun! :)

For the moment we're not making it with Ace 2 for several reasons:

weapons such as m60,m72 law,m21 will be already included in the campaign.

We like ace 2 but the problem is that we don't know how will be the next release, if it will change something that could change some gameplay's elements in the campaign that we wouldn't. We prefer to make it without the most problems as possible. But after if someone wants to change the config file to play it with Ace 2, why not !

we're about 60% of progress. We're working now on the audio section (voices,music, etc...) we can guess that we will release it in about one month.

Thanks all for your support !

Hi, still good News.

Regarding ACE:

Its actually pretty easy to add config-entries for Basic ACE-Functionality for basic ACE-Features in all your addons.

Also you could always stay with the current stable Version (currently since Months its Version 1.0 and very soon it will be Version 1.1) and not using the "ongiong-development" Versions at all.

EDIT: Did i already mention somewhere that i love the chocolate-chips camo? :-)

i think what he means isn't that its hard to add cCE functionality but he prefers doing a campaign and knowing how it will be played by people rather then "ACE adding a new function to force older vehicles like bmp1 to stop for firing" which screws up a missions playablity... stuff like that.

Well, one can make things support ACE without requiring it. Those two are completely different things. A lot of ACE is automated stuff simply looking for variables in the config. Disposable weapons. Item weight. And probably a crap-ton more things all simply depend on values in the config that can be there anyway. They won't do any harm if they are there, and they'll help ACE if they are.

Why does everybody on the forums these days want every addon to be compatible with ACE? Just because it is a nice mod doesn't mean that it automatically becomes the standard. Some people can't be bothered to make sure that their stuff "plugs in" with some other mod, just because it is popular. I think ACE is a good mod, but wth is up with all the people demanding everything else be tailored for it? People have actually started pming addon makers, demanding that their work be compatible, and some are even threatening bodily harm these days. What is happening to everybody? Your all turning into COD4 players here. Sheesh.

@KiKi: I noticed the gas masks your guys are wearing. Could this mean MOPP suits will be in this campaign?

ACE is a new way of playing ArmA2, a better way I think. Making it SUPPORT, not require would be awesome, since then everyone would be happy 'bout it, and it wouldnt harm anyone. and ACE_X has lots of stuff this mod could benefit from, I am just saying. Its in the end entirelly up to the mod team what they want to do. Obviously they wanted 80s' stuff, so they decided to make some, and thats great. :)

Back on topic:

What other vehicles are we getting? :)

Maybe some desert 5t trucks and M113 or willys jeep? :D

[Darkhorse 1-6 16]

Did you make that F-117 for the campaign? Or is it the one that's already released?

[Stagler 39]

[topas 1]

the infantry shown is Vilas' stuff, right? or did you come up with your own equivalent?

[wld427 1705]

Keep up the good work!
