    Yeah I saw several of those, the most "funny" one is related to the aircraft gear up and down.

    The person or software translator that did the translation made a literal translation of the spanish word "marcha", that is related to the Car different Gears and has absolutely nothing to do with lowering an aircarft landing gear.

    I have seen anothers like this but this one made laugh a lot :yay: after wondering for 10 minutes why I was not given the option to lower the landing gear of the 130. I thought it was related to my speed so I reduced to near stall speed but not to avail. Then I thought, what is this a bout "marcha" on a 130???? And voila LMAO the landing gear came down

    I think would have not been so dificult just to contact some Spanish known players to ask them for a review of such menus.

    I do not know how big is your Spanish market but I surely belive it deserves as much respect as any other, by means of a proper translation.

    Just an additional note. I have set my game in English so I can understand what I do.

    Gentlemen, I am just about quiting but before doing it I would try to get some advice here from your expertise. Computer graphics and video card tweaking is surely not on my "curriculum" :mad:

    I have the following config file

    language="Spanish";

    adapter=-1;

    3D_Performance=100000;

    Resolution_Bpp=32;

    Resolution_W=1440;

    Resolution_H=900;

    refresh=60;

    Render_W=1440;

    Render_H=900;

    FSAA=0;

    postFX=0;

    HDRPrecision=8;

    lastDeviceId="";

    localVRAM=522125312;

    nonlocalVRAM=1341353984;

    I have a Dual core Intel 2,2 mhz, 3 Giga Ram and an Nvidia 8600M GS.

    Not the latest or hotest machine lol but usually runs most sims and games nicely. I do not pretend to have 60 fps but now I can barely get more than 8 in best case.

    I use Nhancer and I tried using the Crysis profile or Arma 1 profiles but I cannot see much difference.

    One strange thing I noticed is that I got the same FPS no matter I place all sliders to max or to min, and this puzzles me.

    I have great hopes for this game and I plan to upgrade my PC shortly but on the meantime I would like to be able to at least get used to Arma 2 on this one.

    Any tip, suggestion, comment.... would be most welcome.

    I have no clue what to do next other than unistalling the game and wait for better times. :(

    This should not be a trouble since on the same add on used to replace BIS A-10, the excellent A-10 by Diesel, you have a grey version of the same model.

    Anyway I do not think this is a major factor on the gameplay here, you can see as good a green one than a grey one on OFP.

    You can always dowload the excellent A-10 by Diesel that incorporates several version grey and green and with different weapons configurations. It works flawessly in FFUR

    Of course, even to inexperienced players, taking out AA cover shouldn't be a problem, OFP-chopper + plane flying is so easy.

    Really??? tounge2.gif

    Feel free to demonstrate your Pilot skills testing THIS SP Pilot training map

    You need FFUR of course and the Diesel-A-10 (full add on) the SA-11 and AEC island.

    In our squad we do have a dedicated Air unit with people just flying OFP stuff and we will not say this is easy tounge2.gif

    With the New Tunguska and Linebaker in FFUR it will be even more "interesting"

    Have fun rofl.gif

    I am very excited about the implementation of the Tunguska and the Linebaker.

    Surely they are much more effective units than the Vulcan and Shilka (Specially the FFUR shilka that has not even Radar)

    I prefer to have this new models, however it is true that this will make some old maps unplayable due their high effectivity.

    @ zaphar.

    Hehe not much people fly lower than Shashman. Swaf pilots do train to fly real low and Shashman likes to scare us all I was thinking in calling him the flying underground  nener.gif .

    Anyway I have been engaged by the Tunguska flying the A-10 at 25 mts from 2000 mts away. Once they got a lock on you, you have a trouble.

    But said this I welcome much the addition of this vehicles because the realism they add and the challenges they pose for dedicated OFP Pilots like Shash or myself.

    Both Add ons have excellent graphics, but as the read me says this is a BETA version.

    The SU-30 does not have HUD or any flight instrument so basically you cannot fly by night.

    The Leopard looks goegeous from the outside, however have several bugs related to the guner and Commander sight.

    For instance if you select the comander sight, then when you return to "inside" view, you miss the turret top. Other one is that on the commander sight if you make a 360 scan, you end up looking at your own tank from outside.

    Yes, the AK-74 is more accurate than the AKM and AK-47. The AK-74 uses the 5.45x39mm cartage whilst the AKM and AK-47 use the 7.62x39mm(not the same as 7.62x51mm NATO) cartridge. The 5.45 has a higher velocity than the 7.62 which causes it to have a flatter trajectory (it shoots more like a straight line, not as much drop). The 7.62x39mm has a lower velocity than the 5.45x39mm, but also has twice the mass, which is why it drops faster than the latter.

    Well, I have to disagree with part of this. 7,62 is a more flat, stable trajectory than 5,62. The reason is innertia and quinetic energy.

    This is why most Sniper Rifles of the world use 7,62 mm despite their Army actual standardammo is 5,62.

    I have fired both calibers when I was on the Air Force and over 500-600 mts the 5,62 NATO looses precission and curves, while the 7,62 was more stable and required less azimut compensation up to 800-900 mts.

    The 5,62 weights less, allows soldiers to carry more ammo, and produced more wounds than kills, it has other advantages but flat trajectory is surely not its strong point.

    Also it is affected more for the wind. Look for a wind compensation table for both Calibers and see.

    Hello Tarik.

    I do not see on the list of bug fixed the well known withe screen you get while using any helicopter mast mounted sight, specially the Kiowa Sight.

    Since I know you are fully aware of it since long ago I guess you also have fixed this, but I miss it on your bug list fixes.

    What is the status of this?

    One important suggestion, that I made to punkrocker for his Pauk class ship too, is to include a launch or other small craft, otherwise it would be a bit of a job embarking and disembarking from these beautiful ships. If you take a look at Mapfact's oil tanker, it has the ability to launch small speedboats. Perhaps add this capability smile_o.gif

    Not only does it add functionality to your ship, but it opens up other mission possibilities too smile_o.gif  wink_o.gif

    Yes Shash.

    Really a good and original idea rofl.gif

    This helo is nice although it is an outdated version that brings nothing an AH-64 cannot do.

    However a real gunship plane is another issue. If given a really good aiming device with a really powerful zoom that can be used by the pilot or a gunner (on the Mi-26 pilot and gunner) can use at same time the "V" view. of course it needs NVG

    Give the bird with proper weapons and it would be a really useful thing.

    If anyone tries the C-130 please make sure you review its tuning capabilities because this plane turning radious and most important rate of turn needs to be redone.

    Would be a great asset to have circling over the battlefield by night. smile_o.gif

    The old one was a great add on our squad used on some maps and even on a war vs other squad.

    I would also like to suggest to add multiple weapons even if you have to reduce a bit the faces of the model. it is worth thumbs-up.gif

    I also would like to point that destroying the old ship was difficult because its "locking" point was just astern fo the boat thus enaging it with some weapons in some cases did not much harm. Worth take a look at it.

    Please do not forget to ass some lateral ladder and if possible some small motorboat that can be released from the ship like the Oil Tanker that comes with Mapfact. This really gives possibilities to any ship so you can let the ship on sea and disembark or embark ir safely using the attached motorboats.

    It is stealthy, more realistic and will avoid you have to run aground your vessel on the ebach to disembark a party.

    Please take a look at the Oil tanker (Smuggler version) of Mapfact. smile_o.gif

    It's been done to a C-130 model, so I cant see why it cant be done for that  smile_o.gif

    Where can I find it?

    I have never seen that one completed, just that somebody wanted to do it but there were technical troubles.

    I am afraid that despite Ralph comments about only mentioning the movie, the subliminal propaganda it has forces us to talk about it.

    All freedom loving people are on war against terrorism.

    I am not going to say that Allied Soldiers are saints and that terrorists are all evil, that would be a poor cheap comparation.

    Wars have collateral damage, they always had and they will always will.

    The main difference is that the Allied side did not specifically target civilians as its main objective while the terrorist do.

    Here in Spain they killed 192 civilians on trains, not a single soldier or even armed people was hurt.

    I will not question their rights or ideas, I do not even have the time for that.

    I just know they are against our way of living, they are against our freedom they are against our values.

    And be sure that if give the chance they will destroy them all.

    Think in how the Taliban ruled Afghanistan, think about how the Iranians rule their country and be sure that if nothing is done to stop it, this is what we can face on our countries.

    Super high tech weapons have proved not to be a guarantee against this. Our soft, confortable middle class people have not the strenght or guts to face those terrorists face to face on combat, it is simply "not nice".

    Do not feel too safe and think of this as remote issue that will not affect you.

    Some people on the US and Europe have already paid with their lives at home.

    The point on this video that as a OFP video have the best quality I ever seen on the technical side is that somewhat looks to justify the suicide bomber and so the Terrorism action as an act of justice.

    And this is exactly what the terrorists have always wanted us to think.

    "yes, they did this because this..."

    They already forced a goverment change here with this "way of thinking" a goverment that removed our troops from Iraq.

    People here already thought we were targeted because we had soldiers in Iraqu even when the bombing was planned before the Iraq war.

    Terrorist 1- Democracy and Freedom 0

    Keep justifying their action and soon they will start "reasons" to alter your politics and even your day to day way of doing?

    Next time they want to force your country to do something they only have to kill 200 of your civilians and let the the thinking that this is "because we did that" logic play and watch the resoults.

    Other issue clearly publcited on the movie was that "media is corrupt". So I wonder who should inform us about the "truth"? Al Jazira? Media is what our societies are and deliver what we want to hear. But it is best that only hear what a Mullah or Ayatolah have to say with no option to even disagree.

    Do not forget de media people have died while trying to do their job to keep people informed so now we all can freely second guess everything from our confortable armchair at home.

    Do you think this forum or even this games or even internet would be allowed by this people if they have the chance.

    The movie as move is very good on technical quality but I feel that besides recognicing the technical value that it almost looks  too "professional" I cannot fail to say its clear and defined message as justifying terrorism acts makes me feel sick.

    Lets not allow with the excuse of Art have this clearly Terrorism actions support or justification is a forum that is characterized by its freedom defense values.

    Sometimes being neutral is not possible.

    If I have stepped over the forum rules I apologize to the outstanding moderators we have here.

    Sorry to brought back this old thread but I am looking for a functional UAV vehicle and the only one that I know that is not exclusive part of a mod is this one.

    I remeber I used it and even for an add on made in 2003 was real good and functional.

    The links do not work anymore.

    Does anyone have it? Does anyone knows where to get it?

    Does anyone where to get any realistic UAV for reconeisance that is not an exclusive part of a mod?

    Thank you welcome.gif

    Great movie hidden_spectre.

    Very cool effects and image quality. Best I have seen till now on OFP.

    I am sure you will be nominated to the Al Jazira Gold Belt Bomb Awards.

    Can you give us an update for the video of the women  killed on September 11 or here in Spain the March 11th or in London and their husbands revenging?

    Gnat @ April 10 2006,16:47)]The reason you don't see the front of the Helix as yet, cuz the cockpit is a bit of a mess atm. Hence also the cargo area is unfinished also (currently just copies of Mi17 areas)

    I have real Ka-27 and Ka-32 cockpit pictures from all angles.

    If you need any of them or some help from a qualified Ka-32 pilot just let me know. I will be happy to help smile_o.gif

    ka-27.jpg

    ka-32.jpg

    This are avalaible on the net. I have more detailled ones made by me if you need although they are from the civilian version but bessides the radar set they are almost the same.

    So happy to have a Kamov.

    Do not forget the Ka-29 version, the one for assault with guns and rockets wink_o.gif
