    A few AR-15 airsoft questions.

    I don't really understand your problem. With those 2 kits you should be able to fit the M203 on your gun the way you want right? It will fit allright, but the problem is the fact that I have to use the new handguard type on top. Let me show the difference on the real deal: Here is the M16 with a M203 but this gun has the front grip that I do not want on my gun at all. M16 M203, standard army issue handguard Here we got a 3D model representing the way I want the M203 to look like (To some extent at least): M16 M203 with the standard handguard As you can see, I want to retain my standard handguard on the gun while still mounting a M203. The main problem is that the M203 mounts I showed earlier on requires me to remove the handguard and put on the holed type that you see earlier in this post. The other option is the RIS rail that gives me a 20mm rail to bolt on a M203 however that also screws up the original handguard that I seek to retain. I have found this however, but no place where they sell it: http://www.rm-equipment.com/ They have the interbar that seems to be a snap on rail that allows for 20mm bolt ons. I have no problem getting an airsoft M203 with a 20mm rail designed for RIS systems, but then I would require this rail that RM Equipment sells which I have yet to locate a store for.

    A few AR-15 airsoft questions.

    Thanks for the thread, but my question also relates to the AR15 series in general, meaning the real deal that loads .223 or 5.56mm NATO. As I probably will have to look for accessories made for the real M16.

    A few AR-15 airsoft questions.

    Now I stated this was for airsoft however it does relate to the real M-16 as well. Lately I went out and purchased myself a M16A4 airsoft, or to be precise a Classic Army Armalite M15A4 rifle with upgrades to 450 FPS. But my general question here starts when I want to add an M203 grenade launcher to it (Airsoft replica of it) and I can't say I have had any luck finding what I seek under that catagory. I have located an M203 grenade launcher, or rather two types that could be used but both of them features a problem I don't want. I prefer the M16 look with a M203 but with the stock handguard, no RIS style rail and not the vented handguard we see on the M16A2 in Flashpoint. Looking around for alternatives that allows me to mounting has made me look outside the airsoft group and into what is offered for the real AR-15 line of weapons, seeing as my airsoft rifle is a true replica of the real deal exterior wise I do not see much of a problem finding something and bolting it on. What you can call my roll call here is for those who knows the AR-15 series of rifles and especially those who has handled the M203 if they are aware of any rails out there that can be used? I have located one made by RM Systems, called "Interbar" that serves my purpose fairly well, problem is I cannot find anybody that sells it. I have a last option in the M203 department and that is purchasing an extra set of handguards and cutting them to accomodate the launcher. Link to the M203 systems I am looking at: The M203 mounts The M203 launcher I am greatful for any help I can get on this matter.

    Mi-24 Hind + hovering = impossible?

    I have recently heard that the Mi-24 Hind cannot Hover. Is this true? The reason for this was said to be the wings generating downforce due to the rotor wash. But I cannot make all the calculations fit in this case. If it is true, is it fixed on later models? Like the Mi-35?

    OFP 2 copy protection choice.

    This may be a bit on the borderline of the rules but I am not looking at promoting a warez discussion by this. In fact I am actually on this discussion to determine if OFP 2 is going to be a good buy for my computer, well onto the point then. There have been travelling around a tool that was made to counter the effects of StarForce. With that tool a readme was included. Careful research by the developers had determined that StarForce was a very agressive copy protection, the way it operates is quite well... Awful. It interferres with a part of the computer nothing should even think of touching, the IDE array. The results of the tampering and reseting that StarForce does to the array to check for legal copy has other harmful effects. I have seen first hand experience and felt the effects of these drivers, they have been corrupting a partition table for me as well as rendering other programs and drivers unuseable. It can corrupt data in some cases due to the way it works with the IDE array and that is a risk I am no longer willing to take. Maybe this is more of question to the developers what they chose to go with. I will buy OFP 2 but ONLY and mark me on these words ONLY if it has a different copy protection than StarForce. If you chose to go with StarForce I will not buy the game, not even with a M16 pointed at my head, because in my eyes that copy protection is classified as a virus! Starforce = I normally don't care what kind of protection is used, but when it comes to StarForce I have learned too much about it to look away.
  6. Well running the first few beta tests on LAN with my convoy mission we had to transport weapons to a rooftop to prepare an ambush, problem is, something allways goes wrong, so if I could park an ammo crate on the roof carrying the weapons it would be easier for us all. But, I have another problem too, my perfectly engineered briefing shows up in the preview in the editor, all works (Links etc, etc) But once I fire it up in MP it is gone, like it never was there, what is wrong?

    Guess the name of the game

    Close, really close, DID it was yes, based on the same graphics engine, It was actually Total Air War, I had lots of fun with that game.

    Convoy scripts

    Well, only thing is that their spacing is too huge, they drive with a fairly big opening between them.

    Memory leak?

    I think there is one, but it goes under a different name? Not sure... It can help speeding up OFP that is.

    Convoy scripts

    Well I got 2 questions related to my ambush in Petrovice. I need some vehicles, some tanks a truck and a Vulcan to move as a convoy, problem is that they drive more off road than on road, and secondly, their spacing is a mile off, they need to be closer, they will drive into a locked off street where the players (Multiplayer coop map) will open up on the rear and front tank, trapping the convoy. However, I am in need of a convoy script for resistance and now for the second one. How do I make the triggers synced so that once the convoy and infantery is eliminated using Chechen tactics some gunships and infantery will arrive in the town turning the tables to defense. I tried some way but they still keep coming too early while I am still working on the convoy. Any way to fix that?

    Memory leak?

    I need no extra software to keep windows in line. All I need is what Windows themselves included, Msconfig. Start -> Run Type "Msconfig" without the quotes and voila. Anyways, I got EPoX USDM system monitor running (Don't want to fry my processor yet) SoundStorm utillity and some Hercules Smart TV stuff, part disabled, but thats it, got lots of memory, all I need to is to work on XP's internal functions, but I need to find a list first, don't want to run gung ho and disable something I need.

    Resistance conversion

    Well, if Troska dies, I altered the campaign, But Troska wasn't alone, Guba died, he took a Sabot round in his tank, the Americans were allready there waiting... Guba walked into the trap.

    Field exercise

    Well, I got a better one, park right in the opening, I did, in a Mammoth Tank though, guess that is a magic tank addon, yeah I modified the campaign slightly after hitting the Scrap mission where I cursed on the lack of a silenced gun. (Cheated a bit there, I used a AMC Silenced PSG-1, later I found out that staying behind and killing the Spets Natz at the very first mission actually allowed you to get a Bizon, problem is, helicopters.

    (un)expected occurences with other ofp players

    Dangerous thing about playing with mods online, you kill them "THAT IS A 2 WEEK PR AND PERHAPS A BAN!!!" So if you see a mod, make it look fair... Okay a sick joke, I have yet to play it online, too busy being tactical in Urban Chaos, a Jagged Alliance 2 mod. As for meeting OPF players, well I have seen some in other forums every now and then, FA forums springs to mind but not any names.
