Whenever I do a SpecOp/nighttime mission and use the map I'm totaly blinded afterwards. Has anyone ever made(or could it be done) a mod/script/whatever it takes to make the map red and non glowing (they use filtered red light to read maps at night, no?) when accessed in nighttime missions?, or make it the same green as the NVG's and not so bright? Have a smallcircle in the centre that's visible then faded to shadow around the edges, to represent a penlight instaed of the noonday sun in death valley ... I always draw the blackout curtains and turn every light off (apart from the 5watt red one I use to see the keyboard 'unit commands ) when I game on my rig. I know Ultra radiant map's only a small thing in the scheme of things but it gets me every time!!...

He meant a '90Degree Bend' I think...

Rather than a hundred requests aimed at one or to animators I'd like to see a decent ENGLISH(as oppossed to chex) tutorial so people can learn to make their own. A real 'laymans' tute, not a 'understanding of scripting assumed' one. That way we will get some real diversity into the game engine... Failing that: I'd like a clothes line that sways in the wind :| ...

In comparison to hunting power (12lbs limit~UK) air~rifles they are slow, but for what they are intended they are fine, you would not want to get hit by an air~rifle pellet!!... If you intend to practice airsoft combat, then yes. If all you want to do is shoot targets then I'd say no, they're not accurate enough in their grouping(plastic BB's have a tendency to 'curl' [in my limited experience] they're too inconsistant in weight/density~balance. Though 'Crossman' may make a 'superior' lead BB for target practice maybe?): get an air rifle for targets...You can get some nice looking 'military looking' air~rifles (if not replicas: I think there's an AK model out now. I hav'nt looked for a while) if you're into the look of the gun as well. 'Skan' (UK firm I think) did a loverly looking precharged air gun that had a 'slide' pistol~grip action, that ever so slightly resembled a ThomsonSMG. It was quite expensive though and meant for ratting more than targets ...

Take a copy and unPBO it, then put it in buldozer... Use PBO_Decrypter 15. Some other PBOtool's give a 'prenlod error'...

I think they're all more expensive than the Å100 mark . I've seen some crappy Uzis around for Å70+, but that was 5 years or more ago! And the point being they are no good as a main weapon (Assault/Sniper~rifle), OK for a back up if they're not the 'mini/toy' kind, but a 1911 would be better IMO ...

I think you may be able to do it by (right?) clicking on one section of road and using the 'edit terminator' function, adding a 'terminator' (crossroad or Tee junction, you'll have to add them to the terminator section for that particular road though), but you'll have to build the other road off of the original. Not join two seperate roads together, you can only do that by moving them manualy until the textures meet as best you can (they never meet well for me!)... Dunno if that helps?...

3rd person aiming is just too suck~sucky! It's good to have 3rd person as an option, but sucks to have it alone... I believe 'PacMan' was the first 3rd person game, if the 'cursors' in ZX81 tennis games are'nt defined as peoples ...

Apple is the original sin!! ... Why anyone would want to use such an obscure 'Gamer unfriendly' rig I don't know! Games are what computers were invented for, are'nt they? are'nt they?!...

It's nothing to do with you Jagg, it was aimed at me. I can't say I understand the reasoning behind it's (or the anger and paranoia) accusation . It seems you're 'irresponsible' nowadays if you believe certain laws are acceptable if not abused! 'Specialy if a mod thinks otherwise (if two thinks so you might as well change your surname to Bundy!! ). Please don't mistake a 'difference of opinion' debate for a flamefest! Even if it does get a tad childish at times, it's only a debate ...Also, I hope that this kind of peer pressure does'nt really put you off of using you BB in your own garden(or make you have to walk on tiptoes elsewhere in the forums! It's sad when it breaks down to poorly veiled threats ). Inside usage can be quite dangerous with the ricohets, even with a pellet trap big enough to encompass the misses as well as the hits!

For One: A car is NOT PRIVATE PROPERTY when on a public highway. Two: You know nothing about my reasoning. I don't think it's wrong to shoot BB's in your garden in a competant (if a child supervised until they are competant) manner. How is that condoning the 'car example'? Just cause I don't think the 'Bobby' 'example' is a good enough reason to totaly whitewash home usage?... Again you seem to like thinking for other people, but seem unable to think for yourself? You just parrot the same stuff over again without even reading my replies! Are you a 'buddy back up' bot? Even bots' make relevant replies based on the previous post sometimes!! but you keep on with stuff like this: Again! Please read my veiws!: I don't understand what you see as bad, if you are behaving responsably and they are forewarned what's the problem. Or are you steriotyping the entire population as paranoid housewives as well? . There are certain situations where it COULD be a problem, but if they tell you they don't like it, you don't shoot then. It's that simple if you're a responsible considering adult. You people telling me it's moraly wrong based on some imaginary worse case scenario is utterly laughable. I'm sorry, but you should stop, step back, and take a good look at yourselves and what you're saying ... What has this got to do with the issue? Home usage and irresponsibility are'nt siamese twins, you know?! . You and ExRonin are trying to make it look like only irresponsible idiots use BB's at home. Why? It's simply not true!! People have been using them responsably (and irresponsably) since day one, and they hav'nt banned home usage yet. Why is that you think?...

I'd hardly call a nightclub your own 'private property' ... He was an idiot for doing it and should of been charged IMO, he was acting irresponsably. Saying nobody should use BB's in their own space because there are irresponsible idiots in the world is to far a stretch for me though ...

I'd learn to think for yourself before you even start thinking for other people! I'm sorry to have to quote myself yet again! What bit don't you understand?. Seeing an 'anonymous' gun sticking out of a car is a bit different than "officer there's a child running around in my neighbors garden with an assault rifle!"..._--_--_--_--_--_--_--_--_--_--_--_--_ Well there is: especialy condecending seeing's you had'nt yourself read them before telling him black was white, but personaly I think the 'do EVERYONE' was enough. Don't you?... Well if this is you being polite I'd hate to see you being really obnoxious ... Which witch hunt is that? [P_A_R_A_N_O_I_D!] Disagree with a mod and you're a fuckin mod witch hunter now! ...I'll spell it out: You made a mistake in saying it was illeagal to use BB's in your garden. Instead of just admitting it, you made a (IMO laughable) 'bobbys nieghbor' post to try and make it look idiotic for anyone to think otherwise (which I also found laughable because of:). "You the ACF weapon's handling test passer DKMJaguar should'nt competantly use a BB gun in your garden because of bobbys syndrome!". It's like saying "nobody should cross roads cause a blindman might get knocked over"!!. I find this laughable and disagree! And instead of reading my opinion you put your own upon me! "If he does'nt agree BB's in gardens should be banned, he's pro giving them to babies in the street!"... In what way is this a moderator witch hunt? If you're not prepared to post out a difference of opinion without falling back on your moderator status when you get peeved, you should'nt post as anything but a moderator...

Visitor 'used' to be easier, but now the WRPEdit has a road tool and copy&paste abilities I don't think there's anything in it. WRP is probably easier because it has English writing, not Chex...

Who said I'm for it? I've stated my veiws on the subject already if you'd cared to read them. ExRonin statrted this ridiculous 'bobbys fat neighbor example' that you blew into a global race riot!. I can understand it from you living in Chicargo, but England's a totaly different kettle of fish. No hand guns. No semi auto rifles. No 'every other neighbor' urban gun enthusiasts...I was just pointing out that it is in fact not against the law to shoot in your back garden, and no amount of 'bobby' posts or pr'threats will change that... _ Yes I do live in a mid terrace house but I'm not in the habit of watching myself or anyone else thank's  . I've had the police round because my fat neighbors kid leaned out of his window and shot one of our animals with an air pistol, (his mother lied for him [even though he's 20] and even hid the gun out of the house for him).  I could'nt prove he'd shot it even though we had a chicken with a (very obviously) broken leg, and had witnessed it from inside my back door. The police said (for future reference)as long as the shots don't fall out of the garden no law is broken..._ So as well as being condecending and obnoxious to DKM-jaguar (you obviously don't see giving wrong info as a faux pas or you would'nt be going to such lengths with your 'bobby' BS), you're now threatening me with your moderators status!!, unbelievable!. What kind of a person are you? If you feel the need to threaten me or any other off topic 'thing', please do it via PM and spare yourself the embarisment next time...

And me. The best gaming/graphics OS ever made and it's not even supported! Oh well, maybe I'll find a Win2K Copy laying around somewhere. I'd go Linux before I used XP though...PS: Can you import Maya into Oxygen by using 'Deep eExploration' to change the format to 3DS without errors?...

It all depends on make and model and software ect. there's not enough info to do anything but make a guess... How much are they asking?...

Sorry I think that's total paranoid rubbish. How did you jump from Bobbys fat neighbor to 'a whole lot of people nervous'? Or maybe you're just grasping at straws to back up another moderators faux pas?... WTF has that got to do with shooting BBs on your own private property? It's too much of a stretch for me... This goes without saying, but is nothing to do with whether it's right or wrong to use BBs on your own property (IE: Backgarden)... Why? All he did was stand with it in his back garden! He should'nt own/use one cause he has a paranoid neighbor? Is that what you're saying? ...All of what you're saying applies not only to airsoft, but any fisherprice toy that remotely resemble a gun. So Bobby can't dress up and play in his Action~Man suit cause the M16 is too realistic? Can't take his Spudgun out of the gun cabinet without a SWAT team jumping down his throat? He has to join and go to his local NRA club to play with his water pistol?... I can't say I've noticed this 'huge false callout issue' that threatens airsoft EVER, and airsoft/BB guns (and all other toy guns!) are nothing new!. People have been using them legaly in their back gardens since day one without these issues you and exRonin seem so worried about. Whatever!, if you two feel so strongly you should petition the British parliament about changing the law to make it ileagal...

What!, no one answered within 45 minits?! CRIME!! Ban the lot of em who did'nt reply! ...Keep up the good work Martin, but sack your PR guy! ... PS, I get an error when (attempting) loading your homepage, is there a problem your end or is it just my browser/ISP?...

This is really excellent!! I want a leg cocking anim though! ... Need some custom footprints as well. My dog does'nt leave size 11 DocMartin prints behind her! ... A jump attack and a normal bite attack would be excellent as well, plus a lay down option as the 'salute' one seems to be wasted!... I can't say enough how good this mod is!... PS: Can dogs sniff out mines as well as conventional explosives?. I see great potential with this mod!... I'd like to see some new higher poly models/anims made for the troops in OFP as well. I've learn't the bare basics of visitor and oxygen so now it's time for OPAnim ...

Give up allready people! Please!...I hope the colision LODs are tweaked before the final! ... Gorgeous looking model, and the textures are luverley!(I love camo on planes. Is the camo authentic?) I hope they are'nt too high res though and are GIF not JPG? Won't cause lag with lots of models?... Has it got it's own sounds and flight characteristics or is it using the A10 ones? It's own would make it a 'number one!' model! ...

How would you do the burrows? ...There's a few 'James Bond' mods out there is'nt there?...

For sure!, I can never understand people who jump straight onto new technology (unless they have money to burn). It always improves in performance/stability within a few months and comes down in price drasticaly. Why would anyone be a paying beta tester just to have the 'latest and ...' well latest! in their sig?!...Saying that the latest flagship AMD (FX?) is still cheaper or comparable to the 3.2gig Pee4 is'nt it?...

Poor bedroom! I hope it's wearing a condom 14year old bobby's suddenly aquired an assault rifle and is going to massacure the danylions!! Where do you live that this 'happens all the time'? ...But did bobby break the law?... Please read up on the laws yourself before berating other people for not doing it, let alone accusing them of ruining the sport!!. Condisention is a poor substitute for 'enlightening', even when you do know what you're talking about ... Whatever, the above is'nt a threat to the sport. I'm sure the local~council/Police would rather have ten false reports than one unreported REAL one It's the un~educated/supervised kids who treat them as toys and point them at their mates and cause accidents who are the problem... Why should people who have no access to facilties or clubs be deprivived of BB~gun usage? A full 12lbs~psi power hunting air~rifle I could understand, 'maybe' (depending on the size of your property, or your housing zone)... IMO children under 16 should have adult supervision while using BB guns where ever they are. This should be law!... And neighbors (neigh'boors'?) should always be informed that you own a gun. Should be informed when you are about to use one, so they're not alarmed by gas ones or can make sure any pets are'nt alarmed or vulnerable! This should be law too!...

You can fire an airgun in your garden in the UK. As long as the pellet does'nt leave your gardens boundry it's OK... Don't you mean property instead of 'house'? Garden included...You only need to have it in a bag when you are on public property, (and it also has to be unloaded while in transit). If you are on private land(including your own garden, however small!) like a field/farm you don't need one...
