Awesome work as usual. Keep it up fellas. Monty

@Miles Teg You can't expect addon makers, or even game makers to choke all the life out of their creations for people who need to upgrade. It's understandable that not everyone has the $$ to upgrade, but eventually you're going to have to do something. I mean, what are your plans for when OFP2 comes out? The desert pack is really nice. I really like the island. I like the additions you have made to Malden and I am really looking forward to playing on it. There are a ton of great places for mission. Keep up the good work. Monty

Sounds good to me FischKopp. I hope eveything comes together nicely for you. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help out. Thanks, Monty

I would have to go with the little island in the very top right-hand corner of Nogova. I would have me an airplane and a boat, though I would probably spend most of my time outdoors playing golf it was warm enough. Monty

At the Special Operations Command, our aviation attachment, Task Force Cobra, has been testing aircraft to see what we can use. I made a video of me testing an F-5 Tiger II. You can download the video from our site HERE. Enjoy, Monty

We have had a few changes recently at the Special Operations Command. Therefore, I asked Shadow to lock the other SOC mission thread so I could create a new one. Here I will post everytime we release a new mission. Please post your comments so we can get some feedback on our work. Feel free to visit the SPECIAL OPERATIONS COMMAND WEBSITE and post your thoughts in our forums as well. You can expect exciting, coop, special ops missions featuring the best addons the OFP community has to offer. Thanks, Monty

Let me first comment on who is the bad guys in Sudan. This is from Fox News. ########################################## U.S. Assigns Blame The U.S. government has become increasingly concerned about the situation in Sudan, to the point of identifying what’s happening in the African nation as “genocide.†"Genocide has been committed in Darfur and the government of Sudan and the Janjaweed bare responsibility," Secretary of State Colin Powell told Congress on Sept. 9. ########################################## Cuba would be cool. Another terrorist hot bed is the Philippians. That could be a good area of operations. What island would you use for your Cuba missions? Isn't there a Cuba Island out there? This thread could spark some kick-ass missions. Monty

You have some great ideas there. I have been thinking about starting a storyline group of MP CooP missions. I was going to have it based on the current situation in Sudan and put the missions on Tonal. I'm not sure what you know about the current crisis in Sudan, but you can learn more HERE. Basically what I was going to do is start with the infultration. Probably a HALO jump into the jungle where you meet up with the local good guys. From there, they will show you where the militia strongholds are. You will assault the strongholds, camps, etc in a few missions. You will escort some U.N. humanitarian aid, which will get attacked, and so on. The idea of a storyline based group of MP CooP missions is an awesome idea. Hopefully I can make it happen. Thanks, Monty

Nice work Sole! I think the model, sounds, and flight controls are all great. Will the final version have more than one texture design? There are a couple of cool paint schemes out there. I'm sure you have seen most of them. Keep up the good work bro! Monty

While we are waiting for the SOC website domain to be renewed, you can use this url: SOC SITE Thanks, Monty

******************************* TOP SECRET ******************************* U.S. Department Of Defense Doc# 37451 Intel Brief On Kolgujev 11 OCT 04 The situation in Kolgujev is slowly getting worse. The fighting between local forces and the Russian invaders has escilated over the past few days. New satellite images show large vehicles that could possibly be mobile scud launchers. We are putting the U.S. and Australian special operations forces on high alert. If it is confirmed that these are scud launchers, we will have to send a team in to distroy them. One obstical is the rough terrain. If we want to get a team in quietly, we might have to use a HALO or HAHO jump. More information is being gathered at this time.

Please, please, please, let me see your top fueler! I am a big NHRA fan. My dad and I got to Indianapolis every Labor Day for the U.S. Nationals. Maybe you can PM me and tell me more. Monty

@Bobcatt666 I didn't realize it affected AI like that. It makes since what you are saying. You can only take the game engine and AI so far. Thanks for the reply. Monty

So if you want to reproduce a somewhat realistic HALO insertion, the aircraft should be at 9000m or 30,000 feet. A good way to test the limit is to download an aircraft that you know has an afterburner (I would recommend the F-111 because it's badass anyways) and point yourself up and hit the afterburner. I have done it before but I can't remember what happened. :P Monty

@BoweryBaker Sounds like a kick-ass mission. If you want to send me the beta I can work with my guys to try to figure the eject thing out. I would love to get a look at it. Also, my mission is available for download at our SITE. I would like to know what you think. Be kind, it was thrown together rather quickly. SOC CooP 002 is a little better. PM me and I will send it to you before I release it to the public. It features Laser's D-Boys but uses this new weapons pack. Holla! Monty

Thanks bro. I spent about 45 minutes trying to config the router so I could host before I made this post. About 5 minutes after I made the post, it worked. Persistance I guess. Thanks, Monty

I have a linksys router that me and my roommate use to share out internet connection. I went in and opened up ports 2300 through 2400. Yet, my friends still don't see my server when I try to host a game. We tried both ports 2302 and 2303, still nothing. It is set on UDP btw. Any ideas? Also, how do I make sure I am giving them the right IP and not the IP of the router itself? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Monty

@BoweryBaker & AOCBravo2004 U.S. Army Rangers have all kinds of missions. They do everything from simple patrols to taking airfields. However, they are not nearly as trained as U.S. Army Special Forces or Delta Force. Therefore, if a raid is on a high-profile or very important person, such as Saddam, you can count the Rangers out. That type of mission will be carried out by better trained units, like a Special Forces A-Team or even the D-Boys. The Rangers might play a supporting role like they did in Blackhawk Down. Another thing I want you to know is that not everyone who goes through Ranger School goes to the 75th Ranger Regiment. It's simply an Army school, like Airborne School, Air Assault School, Pathfinder School, etc. You could have an Army cook with a Ranger tab. The Rangers have become somewhat glorified thanks to movies like Blackhawk Down. Don't get me wrong, Rangers deserve plenty of respect and can kick some serious ass, but they are not on the same level as U.S. Army Special Forces or SFOD-D. As for the addon itself, I think it's great. The weapons are really awesome. I am working on several missions myself. Good luck in your mission making. Monty

These addons look great! The only complaint I have is that your HEMMTs handle horribly. I am in the U.S. Army and I have drove many HEMMTs. The turn way sharper than yours do in game. Great addons though, keep up the good work. Thanks, Monty

Thanks for the info Rudedog, let me respond. My missions are for coop squads, not 1 person and the rest AI. If you played it with 4 guys, then you should have turned the AI off. That's just the way we always play and that's the way I build my missions, expecting no AI. I usually try to throw down enough playable slots so bigger coop squads can play them. The WG_Target thing was something I overlooked. I used one of the markers from the War Games Marker Pack and didn't put it in the readme or in here as a required addon, DOH! I did the same thing with the Laser Deltas. When I first made the mission I was using his Deltas. Then the Rangers got released and I changed it over. The mission requires the BAS Blackhawk because there is one on the map. Why? So I could use the BAS script on the enemy armor so when they explode you get a better special effect. Not to mention I can't imagine someone not having all of the BAS addons installed. You also stated that the mission was too short. That's the way it was suposed to be. Get in and secure the area. It's a special operations mission. Get in, get the job done, and get the hell out. Now, I might make some longer missions later, like a LRRP mission or something. Anyway, I sure appreciate the feedback. Your addons are awesome btw. Thanks, Monty
