Imshi-Yallah

Looks like a Ireland......... I meant the format. We arent including an island in our pack, or our thread thank you. I wish you the best of luck developing the project yourself if you choose to do so.

Forgive my ignorance, but what is it?

http://www.laksen.org/meproreflex.jpg Good work Silent.

Important news shortly. Current update is: Reflex sight is finished, Helis are all but finished, PIII is delayed yet further by SniperUK having the least fortunate computer since HAL.

Heres a slight update: Missions: We have in the works, a Dynamic Campaign by Tacrod, Laury Thorn has donated one of his/her (Sorry Laury can't figure which) publicly released missions, we have demonstration missions by AceCombat and maybe even one by myself. Plus I'm sure 1st Irish Rangers will oblige us with their ARW campaign as soon as the pack is released. Addons: There are a number of addons on release that fit with the Irish pack but we aren't for various reasons keen to include. These include: MLV_35MM Oerlikon MLV_ AML 90 (this is an older version of the 90 than we currently use so we'll wait for our custom model) MLV_CVR(T) SCorpion ....as above OFRP_MILAN (Because everybody should have the excellent OFRP packs already) Any GPMG SF addon (Because there are several versions floating about so why add to the confusion.) Although we could be convinced to include the Oerlikon, all pending permission of course.

Yay we can use the AML 90 at last! I hope you guys remember giving me permission to mod it? And the Scorp. Back on topic cant wait to try this guys...last beta was pretty cool. this should be amazing

Just what you see

The bad news is we've had to scrap our troop config and start again... The good news is that SniperUK is due to reestablish his internet connection and send us the completed PIII model this week. I'll keep you informed.

Looking great guys....unfortunately we're stuck on a config snag with our troops.

Is anyone making a United Defence AIFV, it seems crazy that theres none considering that several armies who have well established mods.. LLW, DDAM etc use it in large numbers. The large number of variants in weapons fits would make it a worthy standalone addon.

Im actually having a lot of fun with LLW stuff on Havelte as we speak Another island of this or higher (I use Leuderscheide a lot as well) would be good news indeed. Hate to go offtopic but any chance of some Dutch AIFVs?

Progress on the Meprolight

Just had fun with this....what can I say, it suddenly makes naval warfare worthwhile Fairly evenly matched by two Huckins Torpedo boats and a Nasty class though Hmmm drop me a line when you want to make an Irish Naval service Patrol Vessel

Just single missions from us although an Irish MP Clan appear to be working on a campaign.

http://img226.exs.cx/img226/5267/pilots13js.jpg WIP pilots by Kman 3000. Note we aren't using these models, certainly not the two piece flightsuits.

Same as with everyone else, its worn when required, thats increasingly the case...as you'll see in most of the pictures in Liberia. It can be seen as very threatening and alienating to civilians in low intensity situations which is why its much less visible in shots from Kosovo and Lebanon. The Brits came up with a clever work around in NI, they wore the body armour under their smocks, which both hid the warlike appearance of the armour and made them look like uber buff supermen

@NW: Well that depends on your definition of in the army, I am but a simple weekend warrior SFw: There will be missions, Manhunter has offered to do an Island but I don't see the need. But please understand we are not a mod team, we are an addons project.

I've got my Israeli Helmet sitting beside my PC However troops deploying with APCs now use the Dutch lightweight version on the American PASGT, we have an Israeli helmet model which we may release at a later date but the main focus of our pack is to represent a present or slightly future/ideal Irish Battalion battlegroup.

Thats because its off the program for the moment, more vital elements of the pack have fallen behind schedule.

The Meprolight model which will sit proudly atop our rail top steyr. Like this

Looking good, if you do decide to pursue Snipers ambition of recreating Irish army vehicles from the period for the purpose of a bit of joint anti terrorist action contact the owner of this site for schematics....or even if you felt the urge to do more modern versio ns such as the updated AML recce vehicles *Cough, Nudge, Wink* http://www.geocities.com/irisharmoredvehicles/ Very much looking forward to seeing a release from NImod, if you can pull it off its going to be something really very different from any other mod. Oh and just as an aside I saw in this months Wombat and Fur bible that quite a few US police tactical teams still use Ex British Army Saracens....could be a bonus release

Well it looks like we will be able to release the Irish Air Corp's next generation of helicopters but it will not be part of our main release... Which will be: Infantry (Final config stage) Crew (Final Config Stage) Air Crew (Texturing stage advanced) Snipers ( Final Config Stage) Special Forces ( Awaiting Config) Piranha APC (Awaiting textures and config) Dauphin and Alouette Helicopters (texturing 70% in config'ng process at the moment) PC-9M Trainer and light strike aircraft (conpleted) Edit: We also have a rather excellent MeproLight Reflex sight for the SF steyr thanks to the talented Drill Sergeant. Beta testing and mission making should be commencing in the next week, so watch out for those CP thread screens Still keep those offers coming if anyone has any kit the Irish Defence forces use please contact us and help make this pack even better.

Another update, we have an offer of a 3ds model of the Agusta Bell 139 so if the team can manage to import that to O2 our airpack may be expanding.

*Sigh* I'd been hoping you'd maybe run out of things to do.... Another solid unit Footmunch,
