Dreadnaught

Just one short Question : I have just downloaded ffur 2006 and all the other mods. It' really great. Do I need ffur 2005 too ? I mean is there anything in 2005 that is not in 2006 ?

Thanks. You never stop learning !

It's a great addon. But there are a few mistakes to be corrected, if you want it realistically. First, the AH-1Z has longer stub-wings than the AH-1W, allowing it to be fitted with four pairs of hydra launchers or 16 Hellfires. (see here http://www.bellhelicopter.textron.com/en....-1Z.cfm ) See also VBS1. Second, isn't the AH-1W only capable of launching TOW Missiles and not Hellfires ? I think only the AH-1Z has the necessary upgraded avionics and systems to launch Hellfires. Of course, there are more differences, but these are about the only ones that can be modelled in OFP

Ok. I've heard they are trying to slow rotors down to reduce noise signature in Battle Helicopters. You are absolutely right.- That's what I mean : The textures should look a bit dirtier and more metal like. But i know this is hard with the limited Material capabilites in OFP. Maybe AA will improve this with support of shaders  I've never complained about the cockpit anyway which I think is one of the best ever in OFP Helis

Really phantastic work, all the scripting, modeling etc. I agree though that the textures look at bit dull and not so realistic. Does the Main Rotor look sometimes erroneous at certain angles, or like it's rotating too slow ? or is it just me ? But overall, it's really great work, and btw, it works in VBS1 out of the box!

Thanx Homefry for the quick answer. I never used the dynamic Range sound packs with the current ECP . I`m using INQs weapons pack instead.

I just read the interview over at OFPEC. Very interesting. Just as everyone I'm really looking forward to ECP 2. But I'm concerned about the size of the File. For various reasons I'm at the moment at 56K and won't be able to download a big chunk of several hundred Megabytes. Not that I expect it to be that big though, but could someone of the developers give an approximation of the file sizes to be downloaded ?

Ok...no need to answer..found it out myself. As I assumed the 'file access error' was not due to a bad dl. I transfered the files to another (old Win98) Machine and there the patching worked without prob. It must be something with XP. Somehow the NTFS-File System or indexing Service or whatever must hold a lock on these files. Needs further investigating. If someone finds out, please post here.

OK, I'm getting that Armed Assault is NOT OFP2 (or whatever it will be named). But the pics of Armed Assault are still looking to me like  VBS-1. Look at this Truck : http://media.pc.gamespy.com/media/748/748793/img_2805213.html Doesn't anyone share this impression ?

Just looked at the Gamespy shots. To me this looks a bit suspiciously like VBS1. Anyone who can confirm this ? Are they selling us an (maybe updated and modified) VBS1 as Armed Assault (OFP2) ?

could you elaborate on that ? I don't quite know what you mean; rename what and into what folder ? This can't be a broken dl because it unrared without probs.. must be something else that's causing this "File access denied " error.

Right , when using the new Weapons pack and infantry with the T-55/T-64 tank pack, I encounter a message box before ofp starts : Addon 'RHS_GRU' requires addon 'RHS_Weap_Models' I assume the old tank pack is incompatible with the new weapons pack ? Because when I remove the old weapons pack the older addons like RHS_Crew don't work anymore...

Just a question about the recently released RHS Weapon Pack ver. 1.00 09.06.2005 and the infantry units : is anyone else getting config-errors about a missing MAAM_E762_30MAG ? Any Addons needed that were not listed ? I have Jam2 installed. And all units work, though.

Great that DKM will be back ! Will you ever update the UKPack ? As you surely know there is a whole army of bugs in this great package.

Is it right to post Bugs here ? It's only a small one..but the F-15Cs (from here : http://ofp.gamezone.cz/index.php?showthis=7995) have the problem after lowering gear, their wheels are turning in the air, long before actually hitting the tarmac. bye
