Geez. <!--emo& But really, if this is the same guy who stole that m109, I´m not surprised at all. Crap, crap, crap. The point of releasing betas is that you can get feedback and bug reports from people. Do you really need us to tell you that its textures suck and it is virtually uncontrollable? But really, this thing has a LOT of potential  if it is fixed. But I don´t think that "Hawk" visits these forums at all. (prove me wrong?)

The GFX707 Flak 36 is a joke.

Yeah, what´s that kick thing? In the driver cockpit the windows look weird, and the muzzle flash has been darkened so that it looks very strange...plus those ammo boxes, they´re ok I guess, but are they supposed to be in such an exposed position? And the crew are Spets Natz with bandanas...riight. Overall, a bit worse than the last beta.

1-6 days...where is it?

Oh, and any plans on doing some T80´s? It would be the logical thing to do, not to mention it would make me and everyone else very happy. You´re just the man for the job.

Exactly what I needed. Thanks!

This is obviously a direct, poorly done Paladin rip-off. No optics, the machine gun fire comes from thin air above the turret (I think the Paladin addon had an MG there, hmm?) and you can switch ammo types without a reload time. Plus some other minor errors, like the action menu command for the barrel...holder(?) is in Czech or something. And no credit to the original makers either...

Then the voice just says "T72". Ok fair enough if the "unditching" log is supposed to be there but I still think it´s a tad too bright in color. JUST a suggestion.

It's supposed to look like that, and IMHO, that's what *makes* the models, as it was sadly *not present* in the original tanks, and is on *every* T72, M84, and T90 in the real world.

With "simplified" I mean that "camouflage" could be "camo" and you could remove the "W/". Just a minor request... ">3. It is possible to make the NSVT semi-active, just look at the Paladin self-propelled howitzer where the gunner controls and MG on the roof that actually shoots. I don't like that idea one bit. Personally, I wasn't too fond of that addon either, for one thing, the M2HB on it was about seven times larger than it should have been, and you should bear in mind that where MBTs have COAX MGs, SPGs do not." Your MG is just the right size. And why should I bear in mind that they have coaxes? Do you mean that you can´t have both on one tank in OFP?

I was a bit disappointed with this pack, until I came here and saw that it was the Alpha version. PHEW! 1. Change the horrible wooden color of that tube in the back of all the tanks! It spoils the entire model. (don´t care if it´s realistic, just make it gooo! 2. Make the tanks engage aircraft, like the Kyllikki Realism Pack tanks. 3. It is possible to make the NSVT semi-active, just look at the Paladin self-propelled howitzer where the gunner controls and MG on the roof that actually shoots. 4. Tank names should be simplified. Please think about this, I´m really looking forward to future versions! Thanks for this pack, Sigma!

From Opflashpoint.org: "Hey, Wolf! In the next few days, I'll be releasing my T-72 / T-90 pack, This is clipped from the readme for my pack: T72b, T72M1, Serb M84 and T90 by Sigma-6 These are entirely new models. They are much more dimensionally accurate than the original game T72. They can be found in the editor under East Armour. Included: T72M1: This is a standard early version T-72 used by Russia and many of her export partners for many years, including Iraq, during the Gulf War. The T72M1 is one of the most prolific and ubiquitous pieces of kit in the world. This is also what the T72 that shipped with OFP was supposed to simulate. This model is far more accurate. T72B W/ Kontakt ERA This is a late-model T72, introduced in the 1980s, it has the turet roof boron plate extended and thickened, the forward turret armour has been expanded, and among many other modifications is the addition of Explosive Reactive Armour boxes applied by the Regiments. As the T72s, the T72B is the current export version of the T72, and is supplied for export by Rosoboronexport. Serb M84 Licensed for production in Serbia by Russia, this is a heavily modified T72M1, the most obvious modifications being improved optics, fire control, and the addition of an NBCW sniffer mast. T90 The holy grail of this collection is the T90, provided here near as gameplay will allow to its export version, T90S. The T90 is the latest MBT in Russia's arsenal (with the possible exception of prototypes like 'Black Eagle'. Based on the T72 chassis, features include the SHTORA countermeasures system, Kontakt 5 ERA, a greatly improved armour package all round, and the ability to fire ATGMs from the main gun barrel.

Finally some realistic, modern Russian tanks! I hope the smoke deployers work. Can´t wait to kick some Abrams a** with that T-90! Please discuss.

Hey come on, keep this thread going and give us some news.

Why is it that everyone is making "Huge Aircraft Carrier That Will Never Be Finished X" and "Ultra 1337 Spacecraft That 0WNz Commies" instead of focusing on the basics? A great little realism pack that I always use is the Kyllikki Realism pack, also the Kyllikki Real Armor pack. Get them at http://kyllikki.tiimipeli.net/addons.php And make some basic, good, realistic Russian units, PLEASE!

You probably all know this, but the Mi-8 will be rendered obsolete in a few years, when Finland purchases brand new NH90 transport helicopters. An Mi-8 might be easier to make, but take that NH90 into consideration...
