it's the exact same weapon, with a pic. rail handgrip, and a removable carry-handle, so one can mount various optics, ie, CCO, and ACOG, without having to mount it directly on the carrying handle, or using a goose-neck. same weapon as the a2, just slightly heavier, with no different in fire modes.

why do you have to add M4 M68 Aimpoint, etc, that's not correct, if anything, M4 M68 CCO, preferrably M4, M68, why are you putting the freakin NSN for the ACOG? it's just know as the acog, the old, and the new. I'm not quite sure why the developers got lazy and used the reticule for the old acog for the new one, also.

sorry to double post, but are you planning on making current things that are used by all types of units, from infantry to POGUEs, ie, M1114, M1151, ASV, and MRAP? That's what is desperately needed in ARMA, realistic US Army guys, instead of ACU-skinned jarheads.

interesting...

this is cool, i enjoy screwing around in arma sometimes off mission, and it's nice to relive the glory days, and countless hours i spent playing OFP, and maps of this such. i wish someone would port DMA LIBYA, and my own Arabia map, I would def be forever grateful, as would the community! If anyone wants to try to screw around with my arabia map, shoot me a PM, I am on my second tour in iraq, and neither have the time, or original PBOs from OFP to work on it. On topic, great map.

***UPDATE**** 10 October 2006 Arabia Beta #2: Download Link: http://rapidshare.de/files/36290288/ArabiaBETA_2_.exe.html From the README:

cameron, at least make that PV2 in the picture a PFC, i highly doubt he's still going to be an E-2 after seeing combat, and being in a different unit. ie, he woul dhave been in over three years.  also, the helmet straps should be a light, greyish-fol. green, not black.  the snaps and closures of the gear are also the greyish green color. also, theres a velcro piece on the top of the helmet for an ir  patch, if you need anything else, you know the drill. good job! stick with the 1st ID combat patch, once theyve been in country a few days they are authorized to wear it. i noticed more than half of the squad are either former marines, or served under a marine unit?

Stay in your lane... although highly unlikely it would happen, you wouldn't know, would you? Where's your CIB?

Could you make just an overwrite of the BIS with the 2nd ID patch? Rifleman PFC, Gren SPC, TL SGT, SQL SSG, etc. Â I know you'd be more than willing to produce the PSG, PL, and the rest... I'd leave the name-tape portion blank! They look good buddy, keep up the nice work. The funny thing is, my favorite drill sergeant at sand hill was in the 82nd, and this same unit at fort bragg in afgan. He was a really squared away guy

Just make sure thte horse faces towards the front on the other,

your proof isn't proof at all. why would you argue with two people that are actually in the U.S. Army? Â those pictures are of people that obviously don't have the updated patch. Â the horse is supposed to always face FORWARD. Â how hard is that to comprehend? try not to be so offended when people try to HELP you.

Reversed ? Of course it is, because they are on different arm. Â no, the horse faces the same direction...there are two different patches.

welcome to the club

Excellent, and the magazines are an offbeat color...in real life

Actually you're not, the cav patch is reversed, and is different than the combat one... and since when do people on SOC wear SFG combat patches?

That is interesting, although the square IR patch is hidden under the "flap you see" The flag, if cloth, is generally the colored one, and if subdued, is the IR "shiny" one. I wasn't talking about stryker brigades, i said people aren't assigned positions, IE, humvees. Take it from an active duty U.S. Army Infantryman, no one will be wearing that flag that's not on the upper portion. If they do, they are flat-out dicked-up. Just because the FM says it doesn't mean it's actually followed word-for-word. It's a guide, each has it's own SOP's.

I know your rig "should" run it faster, but be happy you get 30 FPS in towns. This is basically the way OFP was for awhile after it came out. It's a game ahead of it's time, basically. Try turning your viewdistance down to at least 5,000 M, you really dont need that high of a viewdistance, try it and see.

put the flag on the upper portion of the pocket... I appreciate your reference to a real us infantry squad, but BIS already has it right. each fireteam has a team leader, grenadier (team leader usually carries this, either way, m249 gunner, and a rifleman. Â If it's a weapons squad team, replace the saw with a bravo (240) and the riflemen are called AG, etc. Â weapons squad would also be the ones to have javelin, etc, but seeing as the ones in arma aren't finished, that won't do you any good. there are really no assigned drivers, except for the platoon leader, and platoon sergeant, and higher. Â on the squad and team level, one is the driver, one is the gunner, just whoever. Â they never leave the vehicle on mission. the team leader is in the passenger seat on the radio as assistant driver, squad leader in the same place on his vehicle, etc. Â there are two dismounts in the back, obviously. it's too bad one cannot turn tracers off yet due to a bug... squad leaders carry almost ALL tracers, team leaders slightly less.

They look good, but are far too clean, and not faded enough. I've seen them once or twice in person, and like the ACU, they fade a good bit if one doesn't use Cheer, for some odd reason.

If you cant play BF, you are wasting your time

What about islands, I know these islands use a different rendering, sat image, etc, but could the old ones work?

Appears to me the animations are screwed up...

Three words: No Fucking Way... (it's possible, just not feasable )

i am gonna be pissed as hell if i don't get a patch and they have it. it's ridiculous to not have it if it's already ready at the said time. i payed for a DL version, AND a german retail version, why should they get preference?
