    I agree with Vikingo, the jokes are fun the first time, less funny the second time and the third time I just get annoyed. The 3rd person view for the gunner in the SA-13 is too close to the ground.

    Sa80 nearly finished

    Just a bit OT but are there any Oxygen made British units and if not, are there any being made and what are the best British addons? There are just so many and I don´t know which ones to download. Thanks.

    I know, I´ve seen that BTR (80?) video too, but what if they´re driving into combat, and they KNOW about it? You should be able to choose... And in OFP, you have a small arms threat 98% of the time, and if you do hit a mine in that 2%, the OFP engine kills you wherever you sit in the BTR. So...

    Wow, that looks like a dream come true...and you still ask us if we want more? You´re one of the best modders ever Just give it a new sound, any sound.

    Feedback: Once again, there´s lots of cool new stuff in this release, but it´s implemented a bit wrong and you didn´t fix some things from the last beta Good: +Cool animations! The "kick" attack is especially nice. +soldiers sit on the APC. Great! +sharper optics for the gun. thanks +fixed LOD textures Bad: -Spetz Natz crew (with bandanas? come on) -Kick attack causes an explosion!? Strange...if you can´t make it better than that, leave it. And why does it have 100 ammo? Might as well be 0 or 1. -Soldiers PREFER sitting on the roof, the second guy who gets in cargo sits on the roof even tough there´s plenty of safe, armored space inside. Are they suicidal? -the muzzle flash is too dark, restore it to how it was in beta 2, please. This addon keeps on getting better and better, good work! Edit: I can see the advantages of having soldiers sitting on the roof before sitting inside, if you want to have it look cool...maybe you could release 2 versions in one pack, one where they sit on it and the other inside. Just a suggestion...

    Uaz with mg

    Yes a UAZ W/ PK would be very nice, I would use it in all my missions. Surprised no-one has done it yet (not counting the mg42 one...what´s a German WWII MG doing on a UAZ??) Want! Need!

    Directx 9 released

    I haven´t noticed any problems or improvements with DX9, except that my Radeon 8500 T&L bug is fixed! Up to now, you couldn´t run OFP in HW T&L with a Radeon 8500 if you didn´t want textures flashing white occasionally. You also missed out on the cool lighting effects introduced in 1.60. But I downloaded DX9, the newest drivers for my card and the newest VIA drivers, now it works like a charm!

    That model IS too good to be true, units in OFP can´t have self-shadowing, and that thing looks like it needs a Geforce 10 Megaplatinum to render it But the hornet will be as beautiful as it can be in OFP. An opening canopy would be nice. Merry Xmas!

    OMG!!! This addon is GREAT! The model is so detailed and beautiful, but the main thing is that I can USE this in almost every mission I make (go to hell, Shilka). This is still a beta, right? 1. The LOD is strange from a distance, it is white and looks like a different model... 2. The sound isn´t original, it´s the V-80 cannon´s sound. Are you sure that´s how the ZU-23 really sounds? 3. It´s called "tank" in the radio messages. Maybe "machine gun" or "shilka" would be better (or not, there isn´t much to choose from) I recommend putting these guns in emplacements, with 2 wood fences on each side of the gun, another soldier with setunitpos "UP" beside the ZU-23 and an Ammo Crate II (East) I noticed that you can´t target it with missiles, nice touch. Looking firward to the final version, and merry xmas

    Operation northstar tank pack

    ...I can´t open any of my old missions since I got the new beta (missing addon SIG_T72). Can anyone give me a link to the old pack!? (I deleted mine, silly me)

    New official unit !

    Shows that BIS never lacks the imagination to make something really useless They could just as well have created something USEFUL! It´s like the fire department coming to extinguish a house fire, then they use their fire hoses to start a pool party!!! And the crying children who live in the house look on in horror, and their parents wonder why they pay TAXES! Oh and merry xmas BIS
  20. Wow, really great work, I can´t believe this is still beta! Just two small things: 1. The Type 98 only has a "MGun" with 500 bullets. 2. I´m not sure, but don´t the mg´s, like the PKT, have to be reloaded, or do they shoot 2000 bullets uninterruptedly?

    Wow, that snow BTR looks amazing. The best part is those men sitting on the top (if only they could shoot...) Keep on perfecting this addon, it is something that should have been in OFP since the beta demo!

BIS have tried to make OFP as fun as possible while spicing it up with realism. How fun would it be for the copilot to just sit there and watch until the pilot dies (very rarely)?

BIS really are involved, unlike other "godlike" Electronic Arts developers and such. And for that, I´m thankful.
