  1. Right , it has come to attention that some of the parts of the model have been ripped from a possable internal tester or X Dev from Project Reality.

    I was given the parts under good faith that the lad ( a " mate " ) had made and was giving me a helping hand to create it. Ive spoke to UK Force and i will be taking off the Screen shots and will be re-do'ing all the parts in question.

    Abit of a arse because its set back the release of it , but lesson learnt and hopefully come back looking even better than before.

    Thanks to UK Force for being patient with it and not just going mlaarr like i know he must of been tempted to do !!

    Armoured Recce scimitars belong to the 'close reconnaissance' squadrons of heavy cavalry (tank) regiments. They are fitted with BGTI (Battle-Group Thermal Imaging) system (like Warrior) instead of the smaller E-SPIRE (Enhanced Sight Periscopic Infra Red Equipment) sight unit used on Formation Recce regt. Scimitars, like the one you have modeled so far.

    Example of a Scimitar with BGTI:

    Please do not quote images/videos!

    Currently they'd be without the TES equipment (ECM, bar armour etc) as none of the tank regiments deploying to Afghanistan are in a role that would require sending their Scimitars (there are no CR2s over there after all). But in the eventuality of them being in a war that required such upgrades as has led to the current Scimitar 235/TES(H) UORs; they'd probably get them.

    yeah i will be doing one of these 100% .... will take time now due to recent updates but will soon be back on track doing every variant i can musta up.


  2. It's a mast for mounting an assortment of sneaky-beaky devices.

    Scim looks good Chris.

    Any chance you could leave the current plain green texture in the mix with the planned green & black, and des tan versions? Black stripes are increasingly rare as they generally don't get repainted if a vehicle undergoes base repair - not by DSG anyway. You'll notice that newer vehicles that we've procured since the mid-00s like Titan, Trojan, Panther, Terrier, MAN SV and the Bulldog fleet (upgraded FV430s) etc. are all plain green.

    Also, any plans to do an Armoured Recce version?

    I was actually thinking that about the green and black .... how does the Armoured Reeve version differ? isit without the bar armour and the upgrades , go fast stripes etc?


  3. hey , ive been working on a compass mod for ArmA2 and got it all working nicely in vanilla , but when i run ACE the ACE compass keeps coming up . So ive tryed to work on a replacement pack config but cant seem to get the Main ( RscCompass ) to be replaced . The RscDisplayMainMap changes but not the main compass , not sure if i need another classname or what and wondered if you guys could point me in the right direction.

    Cheers

    config:-

    class RscObject;

    class RscCompass;

    class ACE_Compass: RscCompass

    {

    model = "\ADDONNAME\My_Compass.p3d";

    };

    class RscDisplayMainMap

    {

    class objects

    {

    class RscObject;

    class Compass;

    class ACE_Compass: Compass

    {

    model = "\ADDONNAME\My_Compass.p3d";

    };

    };

    };


  4. ECM's -Electronic Counter Measures.

    They would be well tasty even just as placeholder.

    :yeahthat:

    Altho i know about them and roughly how they look , im sure da12th could help you out alot more with them ... Im half sure they they have 3 ECM's on a patrol ( green , red , brown ) i think , not sure which is which but im sure someone will be able to help you out more with this .

    Would be mega to see/use them in game tho! Units are looking pure sex too btw top notch !
