yeah that was the BMD-1 and 2, the BMD-3 was designed to have them inside when it dropped as it took too long for the crew to find their vehicle and then get going, which cant be good in a battle, i think they can carry about 3 BMD-3's in an IL-76

the M60 is based on the patton series of tanks that i believe originate from the late 40's...so its not really surprising

er, in real life? im not an american so don think im biased but did you ever see such a thing as the gulf war? i dont think a T72 even scratched an Abrams, although russians do have much better AFV's and AAV(Airborne Assault Vehicles) than the 'west', although western forces do have chobham armour on their side, its an amazing thing to have on vehicles, in the gulf war we(the brits) added chobham plates to the side of our Warrior AFV's, and to test, a challenger shot its 105mm cannon at it, and all it received was a dent   i dont think russia will be able to beat a large western force with tanks for quite a while, what they do excel at though, is lots of fast manouverable light armoured vehicles with ATGM's, one shot from any of the newest generation MBT's or from a decent ATGM on any target(apart from the very latest MBT's) and the target is pretty much dead, so having lots of small vehicles running after not so many big ones is a good idea when they both pack somewhere near the same punch also western forces are now trying to do the same thing, the US Army wanted to base its entire force around the Stryker vehicle, although it does now seem to be a turkey...IMHO they should buy russian export BMP-3's and the BMD-3M for the airborne, or at least do a very good copy

now this is what you call an APC the BMD-3M is air droppable with its crew inside, it can swim in oceons, and fire while swimming and is more mobile than the western bradley/warriors, it also has the BMP-3 turret, giving it a 100m main gun a 30mm chain gun and a 7.62mm machinegun, and then the russians decided to put a 125mm main tank gun (from the T-80 i believe) onto it, making an APC have the power of a main battle tank as well as being able to carry troops....none of this namby pamby BTR stuff... 2S25:

you could just close it, its not work in progress as i stopped working on them about 2 weeks after i posted this....

i was bored today so i thought id go see what models there were to download (yes i said download) that i can put through o2 and make them work ingame, i got loads and loads of models including these... theres also some fantasy vehicles stuff and a couple of guns, i was just wondering if you want me to make these work in ofp or will i be chained up and stoned for doing so?

yep ive noticed that, a game starting with maybe 5 a side normally ends up 5 vs 3 or once i saw 5 vs 1, but the new feature when it recognises when a person has disconnected and then makes them ai should help, as normally you have 4/5 people standing around when they could be used, especially bad in a game with AI turned off

coding a hovercraft as a tank is really not a good idea, to get it to go the correct speed in the water as soon as it touched dry land it would be catapulted at a huge speed as soon as the imaginary wheels touched the ground, as there is no hovercraft class your best chance is by using it as a boat and only for beach landings(which is most likely what the real thing is for) with a high speed on the boat class you can manouver, just like the boat in ofp, youll still be able to get 50 or so metres up the beach if youre going fast enough which should be all you need

well, i er, gave up on this a long time ago, but you can use this thread for a sci fi in ofp discussion if you want...

have you found a way to get AI non-commanders to spend their personal funds? it seems strange when playing against just ai that there is only one persons income coming in, if there was some way to make it so that when they respawn they have a couple of minutes to buy equipment/soldiers then they are sent out to take towns/search and destroy etc, i have no idea if this is possible, but it would make the game much more exciting as you wouldnt have to wait for the commander to buy things, also ive noticed the M2 machine gun posts arent targetable, this is hell when you are flying a helicopter/plane over an enemy base and you cant target them because A: youre going to fast to click them and B: you have no idea where they are, but this is the best MP mission ive seen, great job!

Just took a fast look at the body when making the list and the wheel figuration and the low profile looks a lot like the MT-LB. Did a little reading and its apparently based on a medium tracked transporter named SPU. If the SPU is based on the PT-76 i dont know but from the looks i dont think so. BTW Eviscerator are you still working on those BMD's you once showed some screenshot off??<span id='postcolor'> yep, its about to start getting textured, its now going to be one of the vehicles in the ballistics Russian Project, as you may have noticed, but BAS is branching out from just helicopters, im also making a BMP-3 and theres a couple more things beng made, but the project wont get into full swing for a few weeks, once the AH-1W and UH-1N are finished(as they are the last main american helos we are working on) then we have a lot of the team freed up for working on russian units, oh and a lot of vehicles are based on the PT-76, but they dont have similar shapes normally, i mean look at the shilka/SA-6, the BTR-50PK looks more similar but still quite a change, also the ASU-85 is a modified PT-76, i suppose when the russians say 'modified' they really mean it...

yep, its a type 45

the SA-6 isnt on the MT-LB body, the MT-LB was developed after the SA-6, i believe the SA-6 is based on a modified PT-76 model and looks roughly like the shilka(also a modified PT-76, although neither look like it much), also the SA-6 isnt makeable realisticly in ofp, the missiles arent moveable, the weapon proxys just refuse to move (why the bmp doesnt feature an animated missile anymore), thats a good list though, youll probably see about 50% end up being made, most of the obvious most popular ones are being made already

because we have pretty ships

i hate to rain on your rather pretty parade, but ofp planes can only carry one type of detachable ordanance, so you would recreate the classic rambo F15 withs guns....and one type of missile or one type of bomb (FFAR's/anything tube launched dont count)

the USMC doesnt use Bell 412's, they use UH-1N's and UH-1Y's(or will be using the latter) (Bell 212's and the H-1 upgrade version) the differences: Bell 212 Bell 412 UH-1Y

red hat is the para's, probably bibmi's, and they are white because of a hwt&l bug most likely

im not sure how long the american projects will take, at the minute two are either entering or about to enter beta(MH-47E and MH-60L) and two are about to start texturing (UH-1N and AH-1W), if we get more texturers then maybe we can start on the russian pack sooner, theres no point me giving ETA's as theyll be complete guesses, the MI-28N is something i want to make, but its not a priority, the KA-60 is, as russia need a small-medium transport to fill in H-1/H-60 roles for the east and also one that doesnt look like its been beat with the ugly stick for a few years

extraction thats the plan, the things we are working on at the minute will be finished before a russian pack, we are just researching at the minute, and probably model making will start soon-ish

and anyone with half a brain can guess the main contenders for any russian helos... *cough*
