Drill Sergeant

Thanks. The m14 is OVER 6 months old and until I had a chance to hold a m1a para trooper I was baseing it off of BIS m14. The SOCOM was done by looking at my 1/6 scale one at that time and that of course was prety off. M82a3 was done by looking at another 1/6 scale I had. Which also was off. All of these erors have been corrected. The corrected models have not and cannot be released until they have skins. Also this pack is prety low compaired to what I have in my arsinal now. *Pollies don't go over 3,000 except on the m82.* Also that was the first m82 I ever made.... Which was a long time ago.

#1 This is an internal ALPHA which is version .5 WHICH my beta testers/some people asked it be a bublic release. #2 Errors? Which guns? 4-6 months old don't mean anything? #3 Rendering ingame? Done that, how else do you people think I tested it?. Mods lock this. I can't win.

Have you tried useing them? Also thats from 4-6 months ago. The current SOCOM has around 4,000 pollies. Â My New M60 has 12,000. Mk46 has around 11,000 pollies. Also I don't experience any problems with them on my low end machine. Compaq P5000 from 00'-01' It's an internet pc. 8mb video clocked to 16. Celron processer... So next your going to be telling me I'm in the wrong game engine all together right? Â

Yeah its a cool gun. I have modeled it, sadly it doesn't have any textures.

Yeah the reload time needs to be fixed. I can ram a bolt action faster then that. Though maybe the 10 seconds is supposed to simulate recentering the cross hairs? I know In Tactical Ops when you fire the parker hale 85 you loose your target id because your scope view dissapears, the gun moves when you reload, and by then if the other player isn't dead........ You are. Which is prety realistic, and it's forced me to take more careful aim.

Weird this was a ground forces book only. They were called agressors. I'll have to get the book again. Was a US Special forces group.

Odd this guy was on the ground with a M60. Wearing tiger stripe and had a flopy hat. Didn't know they ishued m60's as side arms. J/K

Yeah I did. It's like a Mm-1 in esance. Though the fact is the Xm29 is a rifle with a grenade launcher. Not just a grenade launcher. I'm not argueing with you. The Xm29 and Xm25 are seperate platfroms which have stemed from the OICW family. I just like the idea of the Xm29 being a removeable rifle/GLU/Flexible optic system. Also on the fact of the Xm29 being canceld. I guess it wasn't after all I was told by some one that it was. He likes to talk thru his hat and I should have never listened to him. I'm over kill when it comes to the Xm29. The Xm8 is ok... But when you could have so much more for so much more money. Why not? As for the Xm25, it SHOULD deffinitely see service. You'd have to be crazy to pass up the services offered by the Xm29-Xm25 families.

Theres another thing about delta. In a very aged book in libary. (70's-80's.) It had pictures of various military units and there insignia's. One thing I came across was a unit called. "Agressors" There arm patch was a yellow triangle on a green circle. Only thing the book said about them was: They were a highly secret unit and were trained to replicate the russian combat tactics. So is it possible this book showed a picture of one of the "First" delta units? Or are the agressors some one else? BTW are then any US navy SWCC men in OFP?

@FerretFangs I thought I read on Janes millitary not so long ago it was canceled for those reasons. The Xm25 is the grenade unit of the Xm29. If it (Xm29) is still going to be ishued in limited nubers...... Were back on track. The Xm29 isn't extremely large. Which one of my points which I am SHURE the US Army will never hear is. The Xm29 isn't a extremely big gun to tall people like me. Â (6' 1" G3 only comes up to my waist) Also theres more then one Xm29 design. I mean look people....... Bulky? http://dboy.cpgl.net/USA/oicw/xm29block3_3.jpg Xm29 ultra light rifle? Xm29 carbine. Xm29 Riffle. I mean come on people (US govt). This gun has potential. Â Ohh look! The squad layout. :o http://dboy.cpgl.net/USA/oicw/squad9.jpg @Madus_Maximus The Xm29's batery is the size of a pack of cigs and only weighs 5 lbs. Lasts up to a week of constant use. Hell I could carry 2-3 of those baterys on top of a normal gear load... I really hate to see this go down the road of the G11.... The g11 is a difern't story though. Â Also the Xm29's fire conrtol system is the only thing that runs off the batery... The lower carbine is like a g36. Â What I'd like to see is a Xm29 in a .308/25mm caliber.

#1 The XM29 UNIT has been canceled for wide spread use. #2 The Xm29 UNIT weights LESS then a m4/m203 and has 1/2 the recoil of any standard m16. #3 The reason the Xm29 was canceled for widespread use was: #1 Cost (17,000 for the carbine/glu and 200,000 for the fire control.) #2 Bulk (couldn't get enough Soldiers equipped with Xm29 units into the HMMWVs). Though the Xm29 unit has probably wound up on the SOCOM list due to the complexity of the weapon. Also the first picture of the man there is from OFW (Objective Force Warrior) In the Urban combat configuration. (As is the third picture.) Also I did have a set of OFW/OLW units which were supposed to be skined and released with the CBT infantry which was canceled do to B***ing. The XM29 actually had several forms, such as a carbine unit with the GLU included, sadly these were traded up until the thing got to "Bulky" for smaller stature soldiers. Â Also the Xm29 did not fire "around corners" nor "guide" the bullet at all. The Xm29's Fire control system allowed the soldier to see via IR the targets, the soldier then would chose the mode to engage the target using the 20mm Airburst. IE. Explode alongside, impact ect, then the Xm29's fire control estimated the distance, and programed each 20mm's fuse. Then the soldier fired and the programed warhead exploded as it was set to. The other uses of the fire control were: live soldier to soldier video feed, the ability to hold the gun above or around cover and fire it remotely, the ability to see thru fog,smoke and darkness. What the Xm29 lacked in it's failure to be extra compact, it more then made up for in it's fire control/visual aid. The program HAD potential. Now it's not much more then a hopeless dream unless we make a major move to bring newer concepts in and reinstate some of the proven ones... You can't just phase out the M4/M16 family. They key is integration of all these weapon systems (Colt & H&K). Thats probably not going to happen any time soon. (Yes I have seen the H&K M4) Still I'd like to see my OFW/OLW men as part of the game. It's a wonderful concept to apply to a game.

You asked what we listened to while we played. Usealy I leave something of Pink's latest or the old C&C music in que on my media player, until the action heats up. Then I play if full blast to drown out the gun fire. Â For those of you who have never heard the first C&C music from 95' are missing out on so much, belive me... The BHD music along with TOS's tracks are prety good. Usealy I tend to keep the music off in a fire fight though, helps me locate where the shots are comeing from. Music is deffinitely off during a stalk thrue the dark forrest though.

You're Singapore! You're small but well-built and people are a little afraid of you. Â You might even walk with a cane that people find somewhat menacing, rather than seeing it as an aid to your mobility. Â You like an urban lifestyle, with little time for nature or the more rural pleasures of life. Â This fast-paced lifestyle suits you, and you wish everyone around you would just shape up. Â Hear that people? You need to shape up. You're Anne of Green Gables! by L.M. Montgomery Bright, chipper, vivid, but with the emotional fortitude of cottage cheese, you make quite an impression on everyone you meet. You're impulsive, rash, honest, and probably don't have a great relationship with your parents. People hurt your feelings constantly, but your brazen honestly doesn't exactly treat others with kid gloves. Ultimately, though, you win the hearts and minds of everyone that matters. You spell your name with an E and you want everyone to know about it. Â -----------> Â RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT....... I bet. Not much left to say.

Mmm, I think at the most and closet we should come to jumping is vualting. Also you can't stand in one spot and jump to waist height really. Also the ability to loose balance, slip and fall should be added. Especialy if a grenade or similar device lands near you and doesn't kill you, your player should become disorented.

MMmm Theres something about that MP5.......... No flash hider..... And, the barrel looks plastic..... Isn't it agenst the laws in most places to remove the orange paint from non lethal guns? Looks alright except the fatigues. Look kinda outa place. PS find a beter animator.

Only 5,000? Dude a sleeper wouldn't add more then 500 to 1,000 more pollies. I've been in several sleeprs before...... Trust me...... 5,000 is low for a vehicle..... Hell my M249 and M4/m203 M16/m203 family runs between 6,000 and 5,500 with no problems... The Standard M16a1 I made, alone runs around 3,000 some pollies. Make it beter for this game so you can stick it right into OFP 2. Do it right..... Do it ONCE.... And be done.... Just my 2 cents

I was thinking a Armed and unarmed version of a F-350. It's on the list for tomorrow as I've been rather busy but it keeps calling me so I must try my best to do one. Â I hope to post some pictures after I get started tomorrow. Â A note about the CS DM's M4 pack style acessories....... I don't know ATM. (Please don't call the content what it is not.) Â (Not flameing just stateing the truth.) And also each vehicle design needs to be altered to a sertain specification to compensate for load and shock stress. So in essence a F-350 probably won't accept a HMMWV's Turret system, as neither would a nessian. Because the three are different sizes. I recall seing a case where the US-GB's mounted a M240 on the roll bars of a Toyota. (Not enough material to cut a hole in the roof for a turret.) @ Black death the one quoted artical stated it (bottem one) was a F-350. The top picture MAY be a F-250 but looks a bit smaller so it could be a F-150. As I said before the F-xxx is a weight classification. Â

I've collected quite a few pictures of it and am going to try to make a F350 tomorow. (Rather late/early here.) Also about the F classes. F-100 = 1/2 ton F-150 3/4 ton F-250 1 ton F-350 1 1/2 ton. The F-xxx is a weight clasification.

I might do a F350 SPV platform.......... I've seen F150's and there rather..... Well....... Old? Looks more like a F350 there. Â See how the front windows go down? F350. Also the F150's windows remain flat without that dip in the front. F-150 Super crew. F-350 Crew. If I have time to and I can find enough pictures I'll try and do a F-350.

How'd I miss the sounds?  Heh, I rember correctly I use only wav because I was always converting to the wrong sound format and or they didn't work. A total conversion  utility would be nice. Aslong as it wasn't too bulky with lots of dewdads and senceless crap. Â

I could make a green box for you. Even though High polly items are my specialty. a big green box is no problem. Â *edit* I don't me just a model..... I can do the whole green box for you. Ready to be used ingame. Â *edit* My MSN is drillsergeantofprqs@yahoo.com

Well if no one is going to discuss the features we can add to this tool..................... Why is the thread here? What OFP needs is a tool which can binaranize and oppen p3d files. A tool that can pack  and unpack pbo's. Bin config files and un bin them..... Possibly even convert textures....... In one tool......... Now if that wasn't enough work/ideas to get these people  thinking about what else they can add, I'd like to know what  is. And to allot of other people..... Here's my advice.... Wana flame or argue with some one? Use PM's, not this thread, it's becomeing an eye sore. Why am I acting like I run the thread? Because it will be beter for EVERYONE as soon as we quit argueing. Yes I belive I have resurected this thread, but it's only on  page 2.   (I also made a constructive comment on some things they might like to add.) Â

Path my man I sugjest you stop trying to light all these little fires, before the mods ice you. (Pun intended.) About the orrigonal use of binaranize, I'm looking that up ATM and will see what I come up with. *Edit* The binaranize readme says "You can use this tool to optimize your Operation Flashpoint addons." And thats about it. Now please can we all shut up this stuped argueing and talk about improveing the tool? I say make a no fuss binaranize option as binaranize doesn't run on my computer?

and to think I wasted all that time during the 2 years I spent working on OFP as a addon maker.  At this point I really don't care much about argueing over the tool. I need a skiner much more badly then protection. Todays second word of the day would be rambling. Right now we can spell that T.h.i.s T.h.r.e.a.d Atleast the MAJORITY of the argueing has seaced. *Stares at pathy with a cold, dark stare.* Even if a tool is updated the older version is still out there. So ether pack up or shut up and get back to work. Now are we going to use this thread properly for once and  discuss things we want to ADD to this tool? Personaly, I'd like to see a no BS binaraniz, because the BIS one does  not run on my computer.  Once again I repeat myself. (3d time I'll break out my 12ga.) Back to the debate. #1 There should be no debate... The tool is not right nor is it wrong. Bottem line is if it is atleast 95% helpful then it's ok If theres a large amount of  thefts/hacks/problems, WHICH ARE TRACED TO BE IN DIRECT RELATION TO THE TOOL. Then it's not good.                Bottem line. ----------------------------------------------------------- Please end the rest of this discussion QUICKLY and like  ADUALTS. So we can get on with the tool discussion. *Edit* @ CRN Klink, send me some skiners, I got enough   backed high polly models with no skins, that we could have a huge addon party and skin them.. Â

@ Ruff it would be a VERY VERY VERY considerate gesture. Though is it necessary? yes and no. @ FUBAR I was under the impression I was the only "No good" to "bennifit" the comunity. Would some one give me a listof who's leaveing? (I bet we could have a support group to keep us from comeing back.)
