Hey there, This is probably a long shot, but I wanted to try anyway. There used to be a gaming (co-op mostly) community, 6thsense, of which I was a member of for many years (roughly 2005-2011, of which the first 4 years were the most active ones). For one part we used to play OFP, ArmA, ArmA II. I think a lot of people know Sickboy, of course, for his part in the developing part in Bohemia and modding. He was (together with two others) the creator of the community. Anyway, long story short; the community kinda fell apart in the end, people went their own way. I had many wonderful memories, but sadly lost contact with almost everyone. It has been years, and I think most modders/developers there are now part of SixNetwork / PlayWithSix. I wrote this wondering if any, or some ex-players would read this & are still active in somekind of co-op environment? I haven't been part of that kind of community/group for years, I miss it. Even though I have a feeling most people stopped playing, I wanted to check Anyway. I guess I am kinda looking to be part of a group again, friendly bunch playing serious realistic games. ArmA, of course. Cheers, Geo

Reading the recent news, what do you guys feel about a a source of inspiration for anything future related could be the Indian and Pakistani forces and the tensions surrounding Kashmir.

This mod is a breath of fresh air, very good. I would say in many ways the potential is higher than what RHS & extension mods (project opfor) offer thus far. I like and prefered RHS (mostly due to the weapons) to CUP units til this point. But the whole randomization feature, diversity and huge amount of spice that went into this is seriously making me think of sacrificing RHS for CUP and this. Decisions, decisions. Also the fact that I had headaches with alive and RHS didn't help much. Lots of hassle. Looking forward to the next news and update. And intrigued by what the Ultimate version will look like once there is some news about it. Keep up the fine work.

Didn't mean to downplay any support around here. Generally was used to modding drama somewhat in other games/modding communities, tend to lead to overprotective modding. But I'll take your word for it and happy to hear that things are more pleasant and less protective :).

Fair enough, hopefully it will happen in the future. I seen a model of a MUTT in Project '85 mod, but I assume sharing assets between mods isn't really something that happens much between modders here.

Great mod. But is there any particular reason why the M-151 Mutt looks more like a Willys MB (the grill is also different than it should be, from my understanding). And the M-151 MUTT generally has a lower shape compared to the one ingame. The Willy MB has a vertical shaped grill, while the M-151 MUTT has a horizontal shaped grill, in the mod it's vertical.

This mod has been deleted on the workshop?

How easy is it to use this for modded units? Say, Unsung mod or the IFA3 mod. Does it need a lot of config changes? Or will HETMAN identify the units automatically?

Until Project '85 is finished, I am looking for the best collection/combination of mods to tide me over until then. Do they exist? Currently I already have all the RHS/CUP mods installed. But that's just modern and/or general stuff converted over. Looking for that "OFP-era" fix. Anything Cold War around the mid 80's. Basically US army and/or marines of that area, the Soviet Union, and something to pass as Resistance forces.

Thanks, those look great.

I was wondering about the AI commanders. I don't suppose they are really 'there' on the battlefield? It would not be possible to, for example, kill the commander?

Ah cool, you mean in the next release? If so: great! Because I tested this one out this afternoon in the Delta + small patch version.

I suppose this has probably been mentioned before, but the helicopter AI is not working correctly. I tried to let the AI drop me off (with the support module) at a certain place with the Huey. With the vanilla helicopters it works fine, but with any of the helicopters in Unsung the helicopter is being very awkward. They won't push the nose down, meaning that the helicopter is in a perfectly horizontal direction while flying, practically no speed. Other than that, I love this mod. Hope that could be fixed sometime.

I have a static radio which I would like to play music I added. I searched around, but I can't find anything that works in Arma 3. What is the best way? -I have 13 .ogg files (music) -I would prefer an option to turn the radio on or off. -Music should sound only from the static object.

I can confirm this problem on my side too. Rented a private dedicated server with a couple of friends, and we played on the Escape Tanoa mission (slightly customized, but only the spawn location), and we never saw any weapons in the loot. Only equipment, food, and sometimes a bit of ammo (rarely). Only way to get weapons is by killing other people.

I've been fiddling around with the factions and sides in the editor. It's a pity that Bohemia always had a hardcoded limit of 4 sides ever since OFP. My hope is that someday they will have an unlimited amount of possible sides, or at least, a lot more than 4. Then I could really do what I would find the most exciting, having numerous factions battling it out for control, like in S.T.A.L.K.E.R which had like 9 sides or so. But, until then, that seems like an impossible thing to achieve, if I am assuming that correctly? I mentioned above that I'd like to add the military remnant kind of thing for now. Haleks pointed out I could try making one side the "civilian side", and making everyone else enemy to civilian, and making civilian enemy to everyone else. Not the most ideal situation though, so I decided just to put them on the independent side. Which means that they are still friendly to some bandits, but I decided to create a roleplay justification for it in my head: the military that is left are full of scumbags, so they could still strike deals with bad types for their own benefit. My main question is: has anyone actually had any success in trying these things before me? I'm mostly just experimenting now to see what is possible. I was thinking that creating several safe zones, and creating the military bases there is the right way to go?

I see, thanks for the info. Will take a look and try this out, just as a test. Although, maybe it isn´t so weird to have AI shoot down birds and rabbits, after all they are hungry too, haha.

Hi there, excellent mod. Been trying this out for the first time in the editor. Really suits what I had in mind to play with some friends. I like editing my own missions, and I had an idea to integrate into my mission together with the Ravage mod. But I could use a little insight if my plan is feasible. From what I understood, there are traders, survivors, bandits (and renegades? not entirely sure what the difference is). The bandits also fight each other (different factions), that is correct right? At least, that's what I read in the description. But I am not entirely sure how you managed that, because there are after all only 3 sides (and civilians). Anyway, to get to what I would like to achieve: I want to add another side into the mix: the military. I want to create a military force that is active in some strategic locations, with its sole objective to contain the threat on the island/map. Their rules of engagement are simple: Kill anyone who goes near them, a bit similar to what you had in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl is what I had in mind. Would this technically be possible? I was thinking of using DAC or Alive to achieve this, probably DAC. My issue is, because you have 3 sides, there can normally only ever be 3 seperate sides fighting eachother, unless you somehow managed to bypass that? I want everything as-is, bandits fighting survivors, zombies, traders and other bandits. But also fighting military, and the military fighting everything and anything they see. Exterminate everyone.

A shame this isn't converted and/or updated to ArmA 3. Such a good mod.

I am messing around with Alive. And I am trying something, but I don't know if it is possible. I would like to create an Alive scenario where I have one or more AI combat planes (or multiple planes) as support starting from the Nimitz, and when I use the CAS Support module to call them in, they take off from the Nimitz and after that, land again. Now I was trying to work it out, but I failed. I have a feeling this is not (yet) plausible?

Nevermind, my bad

Hey, I'm looking for a Mauser K98 mod to use in the game. I know there is one in Breaking Point, but I have no clue where they got it from. I like to add it to my collection of weapons and for enemies ingame. I have searched for it in weapon packs, but I didn't find it. Thanks.

Not a good start. The new forum made me force out my original account (with the same name and password) after being asked to change password, now I am not in my Georilla 2006 profile anymore, but it made a new cloned today after changing password and being forced to make a forum profile after it does not recognize my old one, I am seriously confused. Not a good impression..

I am very curious about some people I remember quite vividly and if they are still around (most of them are "dinosaurs" in the sense they were already on 6thsense during Vietcong/OFP/ArmA, because during ArmA 2 there were lots of new members coming in, that was when things started to get really big), I'll send you a PM, perhaps you know if they are still there. I recall that after the boatload of members coming in, then the way we played started to change. From semi-realistic to very serious/realistic. I remember there was some resistance inside, and during that time I guess things started to fall apart a bit. Especially since Vietcong was dying (game of old age), which was the main game of the community for a long time. After that the remnant players of Vietcong started a new community which fell apart in a few years time too. Hey there, I remember you, you joined the ship during ArmA 2 if I recall correctly ;). We played together a couple of times, that much I know for sure.

I see, I never quite understood the reason why everything fell apart. Nobody gave a reason, so I just floated about after that like a lone wolf, never straying into a permanent group anymore.
