Banderas

OK so I noticed this while making a little M1A1 platoon rampant mission, when I hit infantry with the commander's M2 or the gunner's aux M240 then the infantry units were "sparkling" like you hit some armored vehicle with it. I tried with some other armored units, like LAV-25, and infantry were always sparking like this upon hit by vehicular machine guns. Hitting them with handheld weapons didn't do it however.

Did anybody noticed infantry "sparking" when hit by vehicle weaponry?

Poor beings hardly have any free time, and for the sake of the Immortal Emperor's Tube-launched Optically-tracked Wire guided anti-tank missile why would they do that? :D

Rising tensions with superstitions was always a bad thing. Word has been said Sfc.Itzhak is working on the addon, and a lot are testing it. Be patient, it'll come out when it's out.

@CombatComm Check if the content is in the addon folder to which your shortcut is referring to. New download via Yoma's Addonsync makes the addons put into different subfolders, most of us just copy it into one addon folder, because writing the many subfolders into the target line would be too long.

Hey Mark, wish you a good health soon (sorry I don't know the corresponding English phrase). Nice to see things are getting updated, I really just can guess what audio experiences are awaiting us, current progress sounds amazing. As far as I understand the GAU full auto mod is there so AI is able to use the A-10's cannon (not sure in this though), and might be the case you are using other mods which override HiFi's GAU setting (ACE maybe?).

Wha...?whe...? Ice you are a man full of surprises! MiG-15 and MiG-29 from ArmA are running well under ArmA 2, maybe even without OAC.

Dang SLA started to build an airbase on Norht Sahrani! I smell Operation Urgent Fury II coming soon :D And it seems like they have a strong relationship with Greenpeace too. (to be honest I have no idea how to remove it, but airplanes seem not to collide with that tree when taxiing...anyway if someone knows how to remove it only in the editor...) nothing serious, just playing with MAP EditorUpgrade by Lester.

Current statement of ACE team on the Remington ACR that it seemingly won't be purchased by the US military in the near future, so they stay clear of it at the moment

It's because ACE removed the "TAB-lock" feature, so you actually have to use the targeting system for the Hellfires - MP gameplay wise I guess -, but if you use the target submenu (2) you can choose the targets manually. Give it a try in ACE.

Phrog is the unofficial nickname of the CH-46 SeaKnight

Thank you for it, DLing now

hmm... Reminds me to: Two soldiers are carrying a big crate at the end of the village. An old lady sees them and asks: -What's in the crate? Which the soldiers reply: -We mustn't tell, it's Top Secret! -But I see it's quite heavy. -Of course it's heavy, it's full of rockets! :D

I did discover a small bug; when I drop a smoke grenade, an M203 firing sound is played instead of a grenade throw sound.

Well the CAA server are still alive via Yoma's Addonsync, and there are several options, you can download worlds only, ArmA default worlds only, QG worlds, vehicles only, autumn plants... But right now they are dependant on the OAC_core, without it you can't run any of it right now Sorry my friend, I tried to rewrite some lines in the configs, but to no succes unluckily, so far this was the only solution I could come up with. Maybe one day I can learn this config-business, and can serve with better solution.

how about a "box-nosed" Mi-24A? http://cdn-www.airliners.net/aviation-photos/photos/3/8/8/0757883.jpg

Yay! just when you think you're outta new weapons, something comes up :D Will there be wooden furnitured ones?

@dondaddah EDIT Post edited due to NouberNou's enlighting wisdom :D removing the distance meter was intentional, so you can't "cheat" with the waypoint in using it for exact distance measure, distance is also removed from the communication menu. Edit: Dang you were faster :D

@IceBreakr Concerning the G3 and FN FAL: you might get in contact with the Project RACS team, they will have these weapons for their units, and from pictures they are looking very up-to-date generally.

I'm not the one you have to convince about Russian technology. At one of my workplaces (an aircraft repair facility at an international airport) we had an IL-76 parking before the hangar for about 7-10 years without ever being used or maintained. A few years ago some Kazakhstani company bought it and sent their mechanics to fly it home. Without any maintenance, they got the hydraulic system working (extended the flaps) and on the very same day they started up the engines for probation. Two days later they flew it home:eek: I guess you won't do that with a Boeing that stands under the sky for almost ten years with the same parts, hydraulic fluid ectect... That might be explained by the lack of information they got on the Eastern technology. Or because they only want to shoot at Eastern stuff in the game :D

I don't think the reason is because of this, it might be that more information is available about Western equipment, you see them more in documents and movies, and it seems that ArmA/OFP community members are mostly come from America/Europe/Australia. Btw good to see RHS is back in the business :bounce3:

@Curry On what weapons are you trying to use the sight adjust? They are working only with some sniper rifles (not DMRs) and heavy MGs.

I think the F2000 would look very anachronistic, older types of FN Minimi and FN MAG would be OK, also these African countries are heavily using FN FAL and G3 weapons along with AK-47/AKM variants (and several copies from Norinco to Zastava), some central African states are using M16s too (Cameroon, Democratic Republic of Congo for example). They might get their hands on older Israeli weaponry I guess, UZI more than probable, and maybe, MAYBE Galil rifles. So my list for them would consist (for Afrenian Army): -M16A1/A2 -AK-47/AKM and copies (you might take a good look at Vilas's AK pack) -G3 variants -FN FAL and variants -FN MAG -PK variants, RPK variants, RPD variants -M2 HMG, DsHK/DsHKM HMG I wouldn't recommend M4/M4A1, G36, F2000.

Thanks Alex, I have 218 right now. I updated yesterday, then it's an out of schedule update then? Nevermind anyway I'm updating.
