One more thing I found during a bit of testing - the open/close window commands remain after the chopper is dead, and can cause the player to go into the sitting animation if the action is selected. Excellent work! These things are awesome.

Just a small grumble - I understand the OWP team should have absolute rights to their own work, but is it really necessary to make the addon undecodable? Most other addons (in fact, this is the only one I have seen with protection) are not stolen, despite being decodable. I can't even gain access to the config file. I just want to change some config display values and default crew. Perhaps this could be addressed in an update, or something?

ECP - good for mission editors. FFUR - good for mission playing.

Amazing! Simply amazing. You keep us mission makers happy, guys. Thanks so much.

Nice avatar, Shadow

Thanks mate. Good to see you'll make the effort - they're looking great!

When this version is done, I'll have to ask around and see if I can't get TCS Plage to make a Mapfact Novajev - it'd be great on such a nice island!

Thanks maestro.

The T80BV was the one used in the original OFP.

D'oh, double post. By the way, Thunderbird, reckon you could post some work in progress pictures of the US infantry, crew and pilots in the same pic? I can't wait until they come out.

@ Tomislav. True that standing will get you killed in real life at short ranges. But the problem is not only that the standing soldier in OFP provides a bigger target area, but OFP's combat routines automatically make that soldier stand out like a glowing, neon-powered, screaming sore thumb even at 300 metres = instant AI magnet. This happens regardless of camo, surroundings etc, and is not likely to happen in real life.

Wonderful! Stunning!

Almost done? I'm waiting with bated breath! Looking v. v. good!

The only problem with making the soldiers stand up more often is OFP's slightly unrealistic uber-vulnerability which occurs to a standing soldier. Anyone standing about 200m away from a squad can be assured of instant death, normally.

That's damn cool - thanks mate.

Going to be the best Chrissy present ever.

After some extensive testing, I'll report back: - Love these tanks! Very nice, don't promote lag at all. Not as polished as ORCS' T80 etc, but hey, now I can play all them missions without a lagfest! - Arena and Shtora work quite well, and don't promote a large error message like AK74's sometimes does (all respect to him, though). Though in a future version, it would be nice to see the missile exploding (that's what the Arena does, isn't it - shoots the missile down?) - Seemed to me like the suspension was a little too pronounced (when I fired, the tank left the ground a little), but works effectively and fine. Good job guys. Love your work.

Just a thought - has there been any consideration of using the ORCS BMP-1 with FFUR? I think it would suit the pack much more than the nice albeit outdated CSLA one. It doesn't promote any lag from my experience, and would fit right in paintjob wise with the ORCS T72. As for using RHS' tanks, I think that this would lead to a great increase in playability - although not as aesthetically pleasing as the ORCS T80, they certainly look almost as good, and would reduce lag levels for everyone.

@ Shinkansen - which file and code line (within the PBO) are LOD numbers underneath? I want to change my HYK/FFUR infantry so they don't drop down a level from 5m away.

Excellent job, guys. Simply marvellous.

Only happens to me when outside the barracks and in 3rd person view.

Is that still Newland island? It doesn't look like it! If not, which island is it?

Jaycop - change the sounds yourself. It's not hard, either overwrite the file or change the config.

Spetznatz Mod are going to release one - they're still working on it though, as far as I know.

Shweet!
