EEExcellent work on that Zu-23. Sice you´re a wiz doing those conversions how about a suggestion for a next project: 2S6M Tunguska It was 1 of my favourite east side helo-killers in OFP. Suomalaista laatutyötä Törni!

This is turning to be a menu music thread...well my choice would be: Disturbed - Stricken. (some other songs are cool too)

What does that have to do with a sound mod? Earlier EvEnLeaSe44 mentioned (page 22)that there will be new menu music in Chammy´s mod, just wondering about if there´s going to be new menu backgrounds along with the music...something else than the Arma AAAAAOOOOOOAAAHHHHHH...choir shit.

@EvEnLeaSe44 / Chammy Are those crappy map loading screens also going to be changed along with the menu screen?

What is the eta on that official Evolution east-version? I´ve played East-version on some russian servers but they contain bugs and such...for example US vehicles in base hangars.

Are those ghillie suit snipers available as a separate addon?...they appeared pretty decent.

I use Paint Shop Pro X, it has lots of thingies and kegetys´s PAA-plug works with it also. link to free trial: http://www.soft32.com/download_344.html

This is true with me also, thought first it was a bug in evolution3.0 mission and not soundmod related, tested this in editor and now I confirm it too. The M16A4 ACOG GL cannot be loaded with M203-grenades, the M16A4 GL works ok.

I hope CSM will also change the irritating choir&trumpet music at start menu, also the semper fidelis theme just....sucks. Menu music should have some "cojones" I personally like songs from Disturbed...as I am such myself

Well the problem is that I have fired several AK-family rifles myself and damn me if it sounds like that! Perhaps I expected too much at this stage since all the hype going on in here. Let's wait and see EDIT: I'll try turning up the volume today. As a final note. It is a totally different sound for the firer and the stander-by some tens of meters away. But AK has a distinct sound. Like a dry metallic bang coming from a box. I´ve also done some shooting with AK47 and SVD and I must say those sounds need some pimping, otherwise GREAT work!

The uniforms can be changed via ColonelSanders replacement packs, which is a client side only addon. You get the best of both worlds that way. Using replacement packs may give a cheat notice if the server doesn't have it as well.

Excellent mission! I´ve played it so much it starts to get...well "boring"...I know that most players don´t want addons in evolution but it could really spice up the mission & athmosphere, maybe a separate mission with addons and the original is left as it is. Addon version could use some of these: - Ebud´s specops - Rellikki´s troops - Jonny´s marines - RHS mi-24 Hind - DMarkwick's DMSmokeEffects - plasman´s t72 and bmp2 - Skaven´s RACS - Törni´s RACS M60A3 - Skaven´s & Shadow´s NXRussian Marines & VDV (WIP) ...just to mention a few possible addons. I was also playing Evolution 3.0 Rus-version in some server, in that version the sides were changed (you were sahranian), it was refreshing I must say.

Excellent soundmod indeed! Guess I have the same question as (ST6)Predator about the radio traffic sounds during combat...are those sounds implemented in next version? (hope they are not a ".pbo-file" which must be triggered in editor...)

Feedback: (only infantry pelletshooters) AK74 = a bit weak volume, strange hissing echo AKS-SO = a bit weak volume, strange hissing echo PKM = OK AKS-74U = OK, echo stops suddenly SVD = OK, a bit weak volume + strange echo M4 series = sounds weak, too much echo. M249 SAW = a bit weak, needs more "punch" ...this was just a quickie review but alltogether pretty decent soundmod, not yet as good as Predator´s though. Keep up the good work Chammy!

Ambient soundpack: -Distant AK sounds & explosions etc... -Radio traffic when driving vehicles. -Troop radio traffic. ("man down! , Mediiic!, "Encountering fire!",..etc)

"Speeding up the Loading animations is for arcade-players" I agree on that and actually I´m okay with the AR´s reloading "process speed" where the empty clip is removed and new one is inserted. What I really ment was that the player is unable to move while loading (sorry if I didn´t explain that clearly) "Speeding up the reloading animation" process goes namely to reloading pistol...the pistol clip removing goes like the dude is in the firing range, I´m certain that a specop dude can load pistol faster than that (speed ejecting the whole clip and reloading fast new one)...there are good examples at Youtube...and yes those guys are pros and a regular Gomer Pyle isn´t that fast reloading a pistol but still...moan moan moan

I usually reload my weapon near cover, the sucky thing is: JUST when I start reloading the AI emerges in front of me from behind the other corner and starts to turn his face towards me, it should be easy to stop the reloading and take few steps to left and I´m safe behind the corner...and grab the pistol and shoot 9mm lead pellet to his helmet. It should be a simple fix...just speed up the reloading animations.

What sucks BIGtime are the animations & etc. Here´s a few examples: You´re loading your weapon, you see an enemy dude coming close and starting to point at you...but there´s nothing u can do but to bang your keyboard and watch helplessly the enemy pelleting you. I´ve died hundreds of times like this and it is VERY VERY VERY frustrating&unrealistic ...it should be so that u can stop the reloading process and to be able to run for cover...but no, you just calmly reload your weapon unable to move while 7.62 bullets start to zing around you. (90% death) Same goes to when shooting LAW´s/RPG´s, throwing that empty at-weapon takes ages...and why can´t you run fast with a LAW in your hand??? Even the weapon change to sec.weapon takes too long...you should be able to "swing" the rifle to your back and quickly grab the M9/Makarov. In my army days we wore the assault rifles so that it hanged from our necks in front and almost NEVER in our backs. Also u should be able to reload your weapon while moving...let´s say atleast when you´re walking. Well that much for animations...old topics but still I hope there´s going to be a fix for all that annoying and unrealistic mentioned shit. Another sucky issue: why is the AI able to pinpoint your exact location when sniping at PERFECT cover, and so that you retreat to bushes after intial shot...are they using FLIR´s or what...must be super senses...and dont tell me to "lower" the AI difficulty.

Got the same problem earlier with 1.07 patch and the conflicting addon was the BTR-80 v1.0

I had the same problem that patch was always "corrupted" and when patching I got CRC-errors. (or PBO-errors) It turned out that the cause was that my computer was overclocked. PC was stable and all games worked fine, but when extracting zip/pbo files it gave me CRC-errors...I set default clocks to my CPU and patching worked. (This happened with my old rig: A3700+, Asus A8N-E mobo and FSB was 230MHz, 2GB Kingston valueram)...so in my case it was hardware related.

My version is 505-dvd and patched to 1.7 + hotfix. When playing editor/mp/singleplayer weapon is not visible???...guy has empty hands but can shoot...where´s the gun? I have legit version of ArmA and recently upgraded my system from A3700/7900GT to shown in my sig...is it fade or what that causes this???...is my game serial now blacklisted because of that system upgrade or what gives?

Problemo solved...it was the BTR-80 v1.0 addon that caused the weapons not seen. Thanx for the tip

Great mission! Suggestion: How about replacing the default U.S desert camo units for example EBud´s U.S units?...namely woodland...it would add more "look" in the mission. Yes, it requires addon to be installed to play the mission but still...well just a suggestion. http://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin....t=60424

oo that's it, but is there a way to get the facefile lower?? I can only get it to 40kb with photoshop ... If your face.jpg is 1024x1024 then resize it to 512x512.
