I have been waiting for this one for quite some time. There aren't that many quality ArmA "islands" out there, so I know know once this hits the forums that it will be exquisite. -Standing by, patience is a virtue.

@kage74: I agree, COD has no tact to it what so ever. It is an adrenaline rush for a few short seconds. I had this same argument with another lad about a classic ninja-like game. He claimed that Ninja Gaiden is a real ninja game and I stated that the closest you will ever get is from the Tenchu series from Sony Playstation. So I agree with you totally. The only thing I liked about the Shadow Company soldiers in the MW2 series is that, when I see a black ops operator, I see those types of characters, decked out in that type of gear and without the law enforcement SWAT look (IE, two mag pouches, old style ballistics helmet and thats it.) I don't think that ArmA could be made into COD in a million years. It's just not possible, unless it the team vs team type games (IE, CTF and so on.) so I don't know what to say for ya there. @zip: If you are talking to me about the helmet, I don't own the game. I did post picture that would provide nice pictures of the helmets. Sorry.

That is friggin awesome. Keep up the great work.

Oh yeah, that is very nice. Will be waiting for that one.

Well in that case, I'm not concerned. If the look as far as gear thats worn by the soldiers are applied to ArmA, we wouldn't have to worry about little legs and huge heads. I do get where you are coming from. COD MW isn't a realistic game anyway. It's more geared towards huge action and explosions. Since we are into realism when it comes to milsim type "games" we are able to call that type of stuff out. I read you johncage, I read you.

@ johncage: What do you mean by disproportionate? They only look that way because of the look that IW was trying to give the person playing the game. If all that gear was placed on the ArmA engine (or whatever), it would only show real world looks. Johnny's SF units have that much gear. If gear is what you are talking about. Well of course they would have something like Johnny's SF plate carrier/CIRAS vest, mag pouches, utility pouches, gas mask pouch, pistol mag pouch, etc. Pistol thigh rig, Thigh rig, (the works). Protec helmet or IBH with attachments (It can be the regular BIS model Protec helmet). Now aside from that, I just wanted a Black Ops member that wears black head to toe with updated gear that doesn't make him look like Law Enforcement/ SWAT. I hope that explains that. Shadow Company is just the best way I could describe a unit that I wanted with a coupe of words. @ Chapman_2424: I'm not fond of the MGS Praying Mantis PMC's. The helmets and goggles are not updated. I'm not ragging on them, I'm just mentioning as far as quality (and heck, I can't even do that). So basically: -SchnapsdroSel/Ardvarkdb/Johnny's character models: CIRAS/ Plate carrier. full loadout. -BIS Protec helmet model with added attachments ie. IR strobe in the back Surefire helmet light and NVG mount. -Black Uniform and boots. If only one or three were made that would serve the purpose. ie, with/without goggles on, another without head gear.

I don't know how hard it would be, but I recognize it would, if it was possible to have a cave type network in the mountains, would be friggin nice. It looks great though.

I am requesting the Shadow Company Operators from Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 I would like to see this in ArmA because I tried my hands for a year trying to make these units, but I am not an editor and have realized that I should just leave it up to the professionals. I have come to the conclusion that it is NOT as easy as it looks. Here I am thinking that, "Oh, all I need to do is find a template of some soldiers and erase here and copy and paste there." NOT the case here! Just an hour ago, I spent 9 hours trying to do one thing and I am at a loss. So I am calling on the ArmAII/OA editing gods. I also would like to see weapons that are exclusive to each units person, i.e. shotgun, rifle, etc. Information: (From Call of Duty Wikia) Soldiers of this unit are distinguished by their black uniforms and tan CIRAS type tactical vest, with both US Flag and a spade patch symbol , black balaclavas, as well as tactical goggles or night vision goggles attached to their Protec style helmet that has an IR Strobe on the back with Surefire helmet light. (the only difference is the color) they appear to have other various equipment such as extra mags, NVGs, flares, grenades, etc. Shadow Company appears to be either a US black ops unit or possibly even a Private Military Company (PMC) operating directly under the command of General Shepherd, serving as his personal security detail and operations force that carry out his orders without question, even when these orders involve treason (such as when he betrayed Task Force 141). Shepherd however, holds no regard for their lives and considers them all expendable, an example of which was an artillery bombardment called in by Shepherd directly upon their location and blowing up his own base with soldiers still inside it in a failed attempt to kill Soap and Price during "Just Like Old Times". Their strongest opposition appear to be the Russian military itself.

Althought I am a big fan of your Black OPS, I feel that they are just a little too much on the LE (law Enforcement) side, when it comes to looks. Don't get me wrong, they are the "shiznit", I was just wondering if their kit could be changed, as far as color, like tan or even green (I just think that looks cool) Most black ops are not conventional, so it would be okay and in terms of how much gear they are packing. For instance the plate carrier/ tactical vest, they didn't have enough magazine pouches. There should be at least a 4 mag front to boot, along with a bunch if other stuff like smoke grenade, GP, and medic/IFAK pouches. A gas mask pouch on the back would be awesome as well. When I see/think "black ops" I see/think of a operative who has enough gear to sustain him/her if the rest of his/her team is taken out. I don't recall if i read it in this post or in another, but i notice that most of these unit don't have guns in the holster. I also remember someone saying its because they don't like that the have a Glock in the holster, but they are pulling out a 1911. I don't really see the problem. I do have a problem with pulling out an invisible gun from my butt and then sticking it back in there. but that's just me. Can this be changed? Or is it because when you un-holster your weapon, it still shows in the holster? KEEP UP THE AWESOME WORK BIG-S!

@ Schnapsdrosel. I have 5 words (and yes I counted them); KEEP UP THE AWESOME WORK! I have never seen such dedication to mods and addons as I have seen from you and they other guy, his name eludes me right now. I have had some wants such as the Masada/Bushmater ACR and something else but when I see this stuff, I am in awe. I know it sounds soft but I really mean it. Hey, if you cant make one of those highspeed Shadow Company Operatives from Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare 2, could you make a Protec helmet with a IR light and surefire helmet IR light instead. I wouldn't mind seeing a decked out Protec helmet instead of a MICH helmet and its variants. Anyway, when it comes down to it, it's your decision (of course you already knew that.) Once again, Keep up the awesome work brother. :icon_dj: -KUROW out.

These Desert Mercenaries are top notch. It is the awesome to play Royal Flush with them. But I have noticed that the backops female is replacing a civlian and a desert mercenary is replacing an acu officer on the bluefor side. These are the regular soldiers and civis in the game. It seems that the replacement pack replaces the wrong things. Maybe this is the wrong version? If so, can someone please help me out? As stated before, Schnap, you are the stuff.

Wrong thread.

I would like to know the class names if you don't mind. I don't have a PBO unpacker. Please advise. -Thanks

I know I've said it already but darn great work man. Good work! Now my Blackwater Merc's can some fother muckers.

Schnapsdrosel, you are the man. I appreciate your work! Keep up the good work.

I love this mod. I have it on backup disks and everything. There is nothing better than it. Big Rooney, you are the MAN, dawg! I did notice that when the regular game is played, the game "behaves" differently, and that is okay with me. I've beat it before, and it's to be expected. I do have a question concerning adding other islands, I noticed that if I use a helicopter, the helicopter with take off straight into the air. How can I fix that, because I love playing on new ocean island. I cant get on it anymore. another thing. The same happens when I use a grenade laucher. The grenades will disappear into the ground. Any solutions?

At the moment I am using SLX/MCM and the international black ops. When I run a mission, my face is distorted, like my mouth is on my head and my ears are on my neck. When I try to change my face in the options screen. everything is messed up except for the women. How do I fix this? Can anyone help? Thanks.

I am coming to the masters of OFP and those of the community, humbly and with the utmost respect. I have searched high and low for an ADDON/MOD; Nogova Virus. To no avail, empty with my results. Years ago, I use to run with a clan and they introduced me to the aforementioned ADDON/MOD. I was hooked on this mission but I never asked to have it file or MOD saved. Here I am years after, I want to play it on multiplayer with a friend for the "Halloween" season. But I am unable to find it anywhere. I have spent 36+hrs trying to find it. I have only came up with a mission made by some person whom goes by the name of Zombie1. Now the missions are somewhat like the what I've played in the past but its not. If I remember correctly, there are 4 missions (multiplayer) in all. Is there anyone out there who point me in the right direction? If so, please help me out. Thank you all, -Fieldkurow

Yes sir that is the one. Where would I be without the BI Forums?

Ive been searching high and low here and to no avail. So I am asking the people to help me. I am looking for a good up to date FAV or DPV. Ive waited a while hoping that some one would make one but instead I only see the same ol stuff but retextured or something like that. Ive done wide searches and could nof find it. I currently use one of the FAV's from the OFP Cz website but one of them dont work and the other one doesnt act like a FAV. So is there anyne who can help me. It would be greatly appreciated.

These Marines rock! I would like to thank you for getting some Marines on this game that is worthwhile. My only problem that I have with these Marines is that, the AI only shoots one round at a time. I could be my imagination. And Im going to check again later. But is there something that you can do about that? Because I am not liking the Chechen (sp) terrorist handing my Marines their butts. I even send in the snipers and they cant shoot for nothing. yes i raised the level of skill, but nothing happens. By the way Marines curently use these things here: DPV (Desert Patrol Vehicle) HMMWV (High Mobile Multipupose Wheeled Vehicle) LAV-25 M6 Bradley Linbacker M1A2 F/A 18 Hornet HH-60H Seahawk AH-Super Cobra (I think the 1Z version) AAV (Amphibious Assault Vehicle) Thats just to name the basic things at our disposal. Now when talking about Specific units and regions.....thats a differnt story. For example I forget which Expeditionary Unit uses the Hovercraft for beach assaults. I can give the fully monty if you'd like, Just ley me know. -Retired Marine

Its like Im having hard times at every turn. I think that the face pbo has a problem or somethin. Can one of you guys post yours here so that I can download it?Thanks.

Im not able to download anything. The computer asks me to enter a password. Is it locked or something? Even is I try to read the readme file it still asks for a password.

Looks like theres no hope. Â LB? Thats short for Little Buggy right?
