  1. Hmmm... I've been away for some time now, I don't know how the ecp mod has been going along.

    Maybe a small question concerning the mod:

    How are the enhanced explosion effects now? Are they the same as in GMRs explomod, or are they only "similiar" or are they even completely different now?

    And if they're different, is there any possibility to run ecp together with GMRs explomod so I can have those explosions and debris effects instead?


  2. I can't getting the soldiers work with the bloodmod.

    I use the gmr mod with a blood mod bin-config, and I'm playing the game with 2 mod folders, one for the gmr explo mod and one for the USMC soldiers.

    target path of exe

    OperationFlashpoint\FLASHPOINTRESISTANCE.EXE -nosplash -mod=@USMC;@GMR_exploMOD

    if I start the exe and shoot down normal soldiers, they bleed. But if I shoot down a USMC soldier, he doesn't bleed.

    The pbo file of the blood mod is located in the GMR_exploMOD folder...


  3. Two questions

    1.)Does BIS care if we re-release some of the single player missions with new units?

    2.)Is the Marine medic the Naval Corpsman?

    @ozanzac, try winzip, inferior compression yes, but it sure doesn't give me retarded errors like winrar.

    They don't care about that. Imho maybe you should add some own content to make them even a bit more unique... maybe some bigger intros, or something similiar.

    Are you guys going to release a SP mission pack for the soldiers.

    And whats the booster pack that wasn't included, as mentioned on your site?


  4. Man... dunno what. to. say.

    uhm, thanks?

    yeah thats what I may have to say... thank you so much you guys! thaaaaank you!!!!!!!!!

    Yeah, i know... i'm rather surprised... But its come so... fast?!

    /me is somehow speechless. But esti_the_big still gives out his special thanks. He himself is now a bit overwhelmed. So he won't talk much for now.


  5. screenies of a nicely and tightly zipped (or rared, or exed or 7ned for the freaks) file with a name that somehow reminds of a pack called usmc marpat. Maybe add the pack as a small little bonus attachment to the screenies you'd release.

    You know, i'm pretty sure people will like the screenshots very much then. wink_o.gif


  6. I was actually trying to find out if what he said should be taken word by word. I mean, if these soldiers really feature effects described in the quote above. meaning the soldiers spilling around blood when wounded, redding the ground and being teared apart by grenades.

    I just wondered if those were effects which had actually been built into the soldier pack (we know that there are blood mods out there and that it's possible to simulate gibs in OFP with some programming skill).


  7. Ban, No. Stupid, yes. Each forum needs it's own little idiot troll that everyone can laugh about. It adds so much to the community feeling. And as long as he doesn't really do something terribly evil just let him stay stupid as he is now.

    back to topic...

    Quote[/b] ]Like you're gonna hear that when tracers are cutting through the trees and the earth around you is getting coloured red with the blood of your guys and enemy, missiles flying through the forest, grenades tearing apart what remains of your squad.......sorry, I'm a little bit tired from the mission I just played. It was hell on earth.

    uhm...

    "grenades tearing apart what remains of your squad" how must I understand this? And this: "the earth around you is getting coloured red with the blood of your guys and enemy"rock.gif

    is it just a bit overexcited or is therer a bit of truth hidden behind those words...?


  8. Incompatibility would be the wrong choice of words I'd say.  

    You can still use them with the choppers with all the features except the Dust script with that annoying "cough cough damnit I forgot my goggles". As for the Russians I haven't seen many good adversaies to all the great western units with a few exceptions. Now we've got some GREAT ones, I'll probably be in hotwater for saying this but the marines and russians in my opinion are by far the best units made to date

    (I still love your delta/rangers BAS) but the texturing and all the build in effects simply surpass the scope of anything thats been done with the exception of the WGL pack since Tactician coded those units with the same features.

    Yeah, they certainly are. Actually, I always asked myself why there were so much wonderfully coded vehicles out there with all those new scripts, but rather little of the probably most essential units, the soldiers. Sure, there were a lot of retextured units, but compared to the massive scripted features addon builders had built in to new vehicles it did seem a bit little.

    nevertheless...

    These soldiers which are contained in the pack... I hope we can use them as standard enemy forces and not only as special player troops, or are they too "special"? I mean, i'm getting pretty tired of the original soviet soldiers you play against in 95% of the missions out there. Any chance of new standard units by earl and suchey?


  9. A brief history of the development of the pack:

    - Suchey makes a USMC Marpat soldier

    - Suchey makes another one

    - Suchey starts the "Modern USMC Marpat" pack

    - Suchey asks me to make some new guns for them

    - Tactician joins to handle a few scripting ideas

    - Suchey makes a Russian

    - I make an AK74M

    - Suchey makes more Russians and starts the "Russian Naval Infantry" group.

    - I start weapons for them.

    - The whole thing becomes known "Suchey and Earl's Marines"

    - Jocko makes the soundfx

    - The pack becomes officially known as "Marine Assault Pack"

    so everything in one pack... ahhh it's nice to know!

    I just hope ther'll be no incompatibilities with gmr explomod. Those two together in OFP will be an absolute dream team...


  10. Ok, I'm really looking forward to the release of this addon. i really am. But I'm also confused as hell.

    First I read the first page... ah it's about the Modern USMC marpat addon. Pics look great.

    then I see these pics in the OFP combat photograpahy thrread:

    http://www.tacticalblunder.com/~uploads/baz/suchboat.jpg

    http://www.tacticalblunder.com/~uploads/baz/suchspet.jpg

    great looking as well... reminds me of something I read a while ago at ofp.info, and blackdog says its from earl and suchey.

    I go searching...

    find this here:

    http://ofp.gamezone.cz/index.php?showthis=4770

    looks like the soldiers on the pics mentioned above. So they really seem to be earl & sucheys work as well.

    All looking great. But are those russian soldiers shown above also part of the modern USMC marpat pack? Or are they going to be released separately? and if yes, whats they're developing status?

    This question might seem dumb. I know. But I really am confused...


  11. Quote[/b] ]and what choppers and vehicles are everyone going to use to fly these babies around?

    Im personally rather excited about getting my hands on NZXSHADOWS huey!

    yes the huey he made is looking incredible! biggrin_o.gif

    uh.. what huey are you talking about? couldn't find it through search. or is it just pure sarcasm?


  12. Very nice Nathanz  smile_o.gif

    I cannot stop making pics of/with this nice TOW...

    http://www.tacticalblunder.com/~uploads/mrburns/tow-nightfire1.jpg

    pics not doctored this time smile_o.gif

    btw: blackdog, can you tell me how to deactivate the frickin crosshair in your camscript ? would be eternally appreciated  wink_o.gif

    Nice pics...

    But why do i have the feeling that everyones got improved soldier models on their pics? Especially on the different TOW pics... Do the new soldier models come along with that TOW pack everyones talking about?

    OT

    what are the best OFP soldiers (regaring new model etc) around atm (except BAS delta&ranger pack)?


  13. nice  smile_o.gif   is this the i44 beta grass or something else ? looks interesting...
