The problems with Blackpowder addons, ie; Civil/Napoleonic war addons. No Horses, While I can make a horse, even make one that moves, I haven't been able to put a rider on one. No bayonets, even with the animation coded in, the AI would not use it, In fact, the AI doesn't seem too fond of marching steadfastly into enemy fire, which ties in with my last point. To look even close to actual battle conditions in those wars requires a minimum of 100 troops per side, moving in tight formation, add 1 volley of fire and you bring the average midlevel PC to it's knees. Don't get me wrong, I LIKE these wars, but recreating them in OFP is going to be difficult,to say the least.

Ww2 landsers final stepping forward
pzvg replied to stoppelhopser's topic in ADDONS & MODS: DISCUSSION
1) they haven'tasked for them, 2) I will not single source these, I have no idea what has gotten into some of these mod teams, but this is NOT a matter of national security, nor is there money to be made off of it, so all this narrow focus and backbiting is silly. You want,you can have, but under the general idea, ANYONE who wants,can have. Want your mod to be number 1? well, personally I never say the point of ratings, but I do have an answer, make the best there is. -
you really expect us to believe you have friends? If Scorpio slapped my mother, I would STILL consider his claims more valid, as his history within the community is not as, ahem,inflammatory as yours.

Ww2 landsers final stepping forward

A tad of bad news, I find that I'm under a new series of time constraints that I didn't have last year (1 guy retired, another one walked) Which means for you, I'm not going to be finishing anything soon. So, seeing as I still want to play with cool stuff when I do get free time, Anybody wants, I have several models in various stages of work, some are mods of others work, <some I have permission to release as such, some I still haven't heard from> others are my own work entirely. PAK40 antitank gun - pure Sherman mine clearing roller- using marcels sherman ATM,but adapts to any SU-76i- based on Steam's PZIV SU-85- based on Steam's T-34 BT- <was a 5, now looks more like an 8>- pure IG33 <german 150mm infantry Gun>-pure Sherman Calliope- again using Marcels sherman Maultier- uses Marcels Opel Hummel- Based on Steam's pzIV PzIVH- simple mod of Steam's pzIV sd222 - light armored car original from 3Dcafe, no author panzer troop- pure but needs work Any and all may get, peference extended towards orginal owners of basemodels where applicable. Much As I'd like to finish them,I'm about to be a very busy man -
except for informal units with a history of casual dress,lack of discipline, and battlefield screwups that should have gotten them canned instead of deified <why thank you Hollywood, ya chumps> No one I know likes a carbine, especially not a lousy-POS-I-jam-at-the-mention-of-dirt-but-got-purchased-by-a-bought-GAOpac M4. That said,functionally, there isn't that much of a difference between either of them, personally I think we should go back to a heavier round like 7.62, being able to carry more ammo is not quite the benefit if you get killed before running through 1 magazine.

Before all you Euros get too judgmental, be advised that, A) they are acting silly, but have no bottles B) There is an equal ratio of females in that outfit C) They have a clean, well lit dayroom Which leads me to conclude, It's an Air Farce unit <as such, can be completely dismissed as relevant, there being no such thing as a "military" Air Force unit> P.S. Go Army!
-
Umm, coupla things stand out in my mind. )It IS the first quarter of 2003 as we type, )Fame? recognition? you mean you didn't get into modmaking because nobody was making something you wanted? <anybody making mods to be famous has missed the boat> As far as there being no worthwhile information in the thread, sorry Adoy, but I'll make my own mind up on that, now go control someone else's life. No backward compatability? hmm BIS form an alliance with a harddrive company?
-
Yeah, why it's almost a, T90 <ever notice how no one complains when the Russian tanks have too much armor?> P.S. This isn't a shot at any specific person, just an idle funny thought from one who is losing their sense of humor over these forums of late. I apologize in advance for any offended sensibilities. "Bear" Aka pzvg

67N series, completed WOC-D nov 1979, Total hours PIC 11,144 Answer that question bucky? And I'll bet I can fly lower than you to boot, REMF
-
Bzzt! set them any smaller than what the AK uses in game and you get a laser <Yes I Have tried it> The AN is good, but not that good, but,I'm declaring this horse dead, you want it, you build it, As much as I feel the East needs more stuff, I don't think they NEED a better AK, Bluntly speaking, there's nothing wrong with the one they got. Of course, except for everybodie's national units the game doesn't NEED any of this crap
-
Oh, you're LEARNING, I'm sorry, drive through please.

Hmm, I've seen the guys at DS/m called a lot of things, but never "robot"
-
I think Vit has used up all the free downloads at 3dcafe, from now on he'd have to WORK on stuff
-
No Drain, You stick to your overpriced Euro crap, I get 2 for that price and FYI a LONG Ranger seats 8, AND STILL COSTS LESS:D
-
@Rufus, What makes you think I haven't? @Crunchy, now translate that into game engine terms, what? it doesn't? oh well, too bad. You see, all you get is a 3d model named "AN94" you can even script it to fire double taps <accuracy btw is the province of the nut BEHIND the bolt> Still won't be any different than any other rifle in OFP, but hey make it if you want, I'll even D/l it if it looks halfway decent
-
I could wear pink, as long as I keep a large chunk of Terra Firma between us, you'll never see it
-
Jet Ranger's are crap? M'kay buddy boy,when the AS 350 beats it in sales, youmight be able to say that.
-
Rufus, One I never thought the West needed 100 weapons of each type, so I don't think the East does either <AFV's are a different story> Two, there is NO <in game terms> discernable difference between an AN94 and ANY other weapon system <change a line in the cpp and you can give a .22 pistol laser accuracy> so there isn't any real "balance" issues to pursue. Of course, "I want it" is a valid reason for the inclusion of ANY addon in OFP, only thing is if you cannot convince any other modder of the same,you might have to make it yourself
-
The Barnes Wallis bouncing bomb had only one application, and that was the destruction of the Ruhr and Saar river dams, The bomb required a heavily modified Lancaster bomber that could only carry one such bomb, and an extremely narrow set of release parameters <waay beyond what OFP AI could handle> That said, the Barnes Wallis bomb is totally unsuitable for use by jet aircraft, is outclassed by a SLAM for pinpoint damage, and a modder would not only have to figure out how to get it to bounce, he would have to build a Lancaster to carry it. Tall order.
-
No money, never,ever, BIS proofed the game, they made it, they can charge for it, The rest of us are using their tools to build stuff to interact with their engine, hardly what I'd call worthy of compensation. <yes even the best of us, the only real kudo one can hope for is to be picked up by BIS or another studio that's followed your work, outright compensation for modding is ludicrious>
-
Well, I can't speak for the "other" services, but in Army Rotary Wing Aviation it is generally found that the best camo is afforded by the hill you are hiding behind, as most weapon systems tend to operate in the nonvisual for targetting. <paint means squat to a HS or 'dar>
-
It's a rare weapon, and it's too similar to the existing AK line to have much impact, OTOH, there are it least 10 different addons of the POS M4, So who knows. P.S. the difficulty in making sight optics is actually simple, ie; we <the modders>,can make it, IF we know what it looks like, so, anybody got a shot of a AN94's sight picture?
-
The original AH-1G is simply a low cross section fuselage, 99% of the systems onboard were UH-1 parts, directly interchangable, The Scout would have never seen combat, like Evis said, it was basically a "proof of concept" testbed, It couldn't carry enough ammo for the weapons to make it useful.
-
Would that be a certain site that likes to boast of their work being better than everyone else's? good luck to you, cya when they release. <2006?>
