    ok a few ungame pics have been added to our gallery on our website. Navigate your way to www.22regiment.org.uk Then i suggest right clicking the link saying gallery and opening in a new window (tab for firefox users).

    this will allow much better viewing!

    Again before you go, remember this is not to scale, is still being worked on and is not a real life version of england etc.

    However saying that, we are thinking of redoing much of the island and creating all major towns and cities in mini versions (to reduce lag) So in the future one might see cambridge as a city and london made to look more realistic.

    Thus far we have spent one month creating this, so dont expect perfection yet tounge2.gif

    Oh BTW - while ur there, checkout our videos, we just learnt how to make little vids using fraps, so many more coming lol

    Edit once again - BTW for those of you that dont know, this is actually [22SAS]Psych, wanted to change my nick on here but it wont let me icon_rolleyes.gif

    thanks, i'm amazed how much interest this has caused.

    Yes AGS packs are being used! Along with mapfact addons too ....

    No we will not be making the houses of parliment or buckingham palace, however that said, if anyone wants to make them for us so we can add them, feel free ....... please PM me to talk further about this.

    This island is not too scale as does not intend to replicate the cities or villages in any way really, for example cambridge is a large RAF airbase and not a small city like it is in real life. We may edit this an make everything as realistic as possible, but this would depend on many things one for instance would be realistic houses being made. We would need someone to help in this.

    Yes some places are missing and some a positioned in the wrong place, this will be fixed for release though. As for the isle of man and other small islands, I thought they had been lost in the rising sea level?? no?? Seem to have been on our island nener.gif

    thanks for the positive feed back

    yeh we know some of the place names arnt quite in the right place and that some places have been made into larger than life cities.

    No sorry its not going to be a 'to scale' replica. firstly its too much work, we're creating a mod, just an island. Our first prirorty is our clan. This stuff comes second to it.

    Yes cambridge is my home, so it was made into a nice place lol

    I'll dig out some ingame screenies soon.

    As for smaller towns, please dont expect ur home to be on this island, coz i bet it aint! There are many farm areas, forests and hills and mountainous ground is located in the right areas (roughly) for example it has the cork and kerry mountains in the republic of island.

    we at 22 SAS Regiment are making the United Kingdom for ofp.

    It has already been made to some extent and is being tested by the regiment.

    It is planned to be released sometime in the distant future, after much testing and lots more editing.

    The island consists of England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Major cities are included, however is it not possible to include all cities.

    I've included an image to satisfiy all who are interested. As mentioned at the moment this addon is purely for 22 Regiment, however it is being considered for public release, if there is enough positive interest.

    Please do NOT try to tell us what we should be adding or where stuff should be added.

    Note - this is our first attempt at making an island so be nice, else we wont read your posts!

    Thanks for your attention ............

    hiya

    this addon is great, i really want to use it but i am having troubles, can someone please help

    I'm using a description.ext file to offer a large selection of weapons given by the SJB weapons pack. But when i load the game on multiplayer, any soldier having picked their weapon from the list under gear, doesnt have tracers.

    If i kill an enemy soldier who has basic weapons as standard when the map starts. i can pick up his AK47 and have red tracers.

    what am i doing wrong?

    sorry i didnt explain what i meant, i used to run a linux ofp server and had a 2302 file which recorded all the people who join and their player id's

    i'm wanting to do the same on the windows server, i created teh 2302 file on the windows server install

  9. Posted

    its just a basic windows setup, hosted by pulsegamging.com, also running ecp.

    i had them add -netlog to the exe peramiters but thats all

    are there any files i should copy for you to understand more?

    i'd like to see the sjb weapon pack included in the next version, and also mentioned above i think that there needs to be the function of re-packing mags ect incase of taking out too many or taking spares from a dead soldier. Also dunno if i'm right in thinking this but the rucksacks seem to only hold four mags, this is a very limited number and could easily be carried on the person let alone in a rucksack, perhaps increase the mags able to carry to say 8 or 10. This could be done by doubling the amount of times a mag can be fired, to twice. thus allowing for eight mags to be dropped from the rucksack?

    How about also leaving the rucksack open? enabling anyone to put any magazines they like in without them having to be included in the magazine classes? or making a set of rucksacks that do this alongside the ones you have made? rather like the rucksacks already out there.

    I'd also like to see british camo.

    dont know if this has been mentioned, but the AI seem to want to land aircraft in the sea notworthy.gif god love the AI.

    Perhaps its something i'm doing or not doing?

    Other than that i love the island. I've made all the ranges working and the cqb areas are great. Took me a while to find the hash plantations, found them now and they'll be the first place i make a mission for ...... thanks very much for this island, i know islands take an age to make and i appreciate every click you made while creating this little bueaty.

    oh and with ther huge download? ah common ppl its not that hard if you have dsl or cable. It would be good however to just download a pbo that had all the objects used, as i find the only annoying thing is that after downloading this island i now have a bunch of island i'll never use for example the seb ones.

    what is ppl's problem, if you dont like the weapons these units have as standard. it takes two seconds to give them something different.

    Example

    in the init field put this

    this addmagazine "magname"; this addweapon "weaponname";

    or

    this addmagazine "wip_M4mag"; this addweapon "wip_m4acog";

    thats not too hard is it? jesus if BB created a config for everyones tastes there'd be like 50 versions of these units. If you dont like it, either do something about it (like the above) or shut up and put up.

    I don't seem to be able of patch the units .pbo with the SCRIPTS folder and the CONFIG outside it, but i think that's because i don't understand the way that the WINpbo 1.0 works. Let's cu

    OK. I've included a full version (1.0b) aswell at the first page.

    I've noticed yet one more ugly thing when looking at your pics. The right arms sleeve is way thicker than the left one.

    heya,

    we have found a bug when playing in MP

    sometimes when we die an error flashes up when in spectating using ECP mod. The error says something about EPC not alive count (or something like that?)

    also if someone could manage to create a bergen from the textures used in this addon please let me know.

    Cheers

    i see what you mean about the loadouts

    when the bergen is dropped it creates an ammo create right? If so this must be identifiable from the others in a mission else they wouldnt be working to the point they are .... would they?

    In short the below says - use your system until it has been dropped then change systems to andy backpack.

    Surely if then each ammo create is idenifiable (through name) then , it could be scripted if a soldier comes within 5m then he gets an option to pickup bergen. Once picked up he then gets an option to open bergen, this would then spawn the create to his / her location giving access to each individual bergen loadout no matter who picks up who's bergen.

    I know this isnt the intended workaround, but would this work and how do you script it to work? if so

    we currently use andy backpack with a different model from the falklands mod (argie version). Would it be possible to make the andy backpack with your textures?

    I'd offer to do it myself ........... but heh i aint to good at that kinda stuff.

    I have had a look in the pbo file and found that adding these two lines

    soldiersname setobjecttexture [5,"\BLB_UK\berg2.pac"]

    ~.1

    soldiersname setobjecttexture [6,"\BLB_UK\pack.pac"]

    on a radio alpha makes the bergen reappear after you have dropped it. perhaps then if the action menu could be replaced and then the ammo create used could respawn near to the soldier like with the andy backpack? would this work ....... this would give a stable bergen to look at (no swinging) and functions of andy backpack (re-usable)??

    Just my rambling ......

    great work, we at 22 Regiment love these dudes. SAS desert style!!

    For the issues with picking up the bergen, why not make the bergen into a weapon, based on a law launcher, then it could be picked up and dropped anytime. Obviously still needed to be scripted to an ammo create of sorts!

    Is there any way to make the bergens hold a rifle, ie sniper rifle? cheers

  25. Posted

    yeh i have the UKF addons

    i didnt know there were faces included, perpahs i should have read the readme a bit better huh. cheers for info

    oh hang on do you mean the action menu camo face? coz although thats a great camo face, their is only one version. I'd like a few so our clan members can have different faces.
