As far as accuracy, use the Laser Designator. The M109 can fire Copperhead rounds (laser seeker head). Range and accuracy for conventional rounds, simple trig. Arty btry is at Hg69 and you need arty support at Bc24, point and right click at the spot you need it to rain down on by an FO (another mission!), "0" for radio, "Fire Mission" say at "5", then another window to choose what type of target (ie. infantry, armor, trucks, whatever) which would then allow you to choose type of ammo and number of rounds, boom! gun bunnies do your thing, baby. Not that hard. Let the computer figure out propellent needed. It's always nice to have a forward observer to direct incoming joes, kinda like "Bomberman". The math is easy, the code is the problem, I guess, I don't know computer code writing. I've been a Redleg for over 20 yrs. Ain't nothing but a thing! If you can lob a -203, a 155 or a 105 is the same principle. By-the-by, you'd need the gun angle more than 45 degrees for those small islands. How big are they again?<span id='postcolor'> I'm not talking precision accuracy...I just mean accuracy to within 100 meters at least. If it's that easy please write some cpp scripts that syncronize those triggers and markers on the map with the gun elevation and turret direction....and of coarse that made the M109 fire when you gave the fire command. If you can figure out how to do all that then you'd be a hero! Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD>

That sucks bad that they switched suddenlly on you. That's very unprofessional of their MOD team to do something like that. I thought that from the early screenshots that your model looked really good. I notice that they didn't make the wings move on their tornado. I guess they couldn't figure out how to make the missle hardpoints move as well so that they'd stay pointing straight as the wings moved. Their addon looks excellent and has the best handling I've ever experienced on any figher, but it sucks really badly that the AI won't fire the sub-munitions. I was lookinng forward to seeing it in action because when you're flying you can't see the big swath of destruction that you leave behind as there is no rear view. I know that it is possible to make a very good submunition script that the AI will use because the Su-25 bomblet addon that somebody made a while back works extremely well and the AI use it perfectly. It's actually quite impressive to watch from the ground as they attack and the damage levels are set just right. Oh...another thing. The G8 guys called their submunitions dispenser a JP233 which is incorrect. The one on their Tornado is actually the German MW-1 submunitions dispenser. Their tornado also happily shoots sidewinder missles at ground targets. But overall their addon is good...but it's sad they couldn't make it perfect (or alot closer to being perfect). I hope that your RAF Tornado does everything that they did right, but then corrects everything that they did wrong (and takes out that damn italian pilot). Oh...also one thing. PLEEEEASE don't make your addon a single MASSIVE Pbo file like they did. That pisses me off because I don't want to use all of their aircraft. I just wanted the ground attack aircraft and it pisses me off that they force me to use all of them and take up valuable memory because as you know all of the addons are loaded up into memory. I've already cleared out everything but the most essential addons that I use for missions. However I'm running out of memory quickly and huge addons like theirs just pisses me off when it could have been divided up into individual addons that a person can choose from. Those addons could have all be included in one ZIP file. I hope that you make yours like that...sorta like the A4 Skyhawk model which has seperate Pbo's for the AA and the rocket version. If you've already made most of it and it's too late to do that, then oh well...but if it's not too late, that would be much appreciated by those of us that only have 256megs of RAM in our systems. Anyways keep up the great work Evis and I hope that your RAF Tornado kicks major ass over the G8 Tornado! Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD>

The ones I have are the ones that I use on missions that I am working on and thus I can't remove them. Now I could buy another stick of 256megs of SDRAM but the prices have gone up and right now I'm unemployed (full time graduate student) so I have to be careful on what I spend my money on. Until then I don't see what the problem is in making the M4 pack into a single ZIP file but with multiple PBO files. There are only a few of the M4's in that pack that I like and that I would really like to use on missions, but the rest I can do without. Another reason to split up the pack is because that way I can include those addons with my missions. Including a 4 meg+ addon pack onto a mission that already is big because of custom sounds uses up very scarce webspace. Yes I could just make missions and post links to the addons, but links in the OFP web community seem to change faster then the weather and I don't like dealing with the headaches of keeping track of dozens of different links.

I see that the G8 team decided to use the German MW-1 submunitions dispenser instead of the JP-233. Â That's actually cool cuz the MW-1 looks a lot meaner looking I think while the JP-233 just looks like a fuel tank. Â I just hope they do the bomblet scripting correctly because apparently the G8 team decided to use someone else to do the weapons scripts then who originally was supposed to...something that was either the result of a miscommunication between Eviscerator and the G8 MOD team or because they're jerks who just didn't bother to notify my friend about the change in plans. Â The person supposed to do the weapons scripts is one of my friends and he worked damn hard to get it right and was just waiting for the Tornado model so he could make the final adjustments to the cpp scripting. Â Then suddenly we see this about the Tornado about to be released. Â People working in teams on addons SERIOUSLY need to communicate better with each other cuz right now everyone is doing their own thing within the groups it seems. Â That's pretty crappy having someone volunteer to do a bunch of hard work for nothing. Â But hopefully it was just a simple miscommunication between Evi and Colorchanger. At any rate, I hope they did the MW-1 submunitions script correctly and not all half-assed. Â The best I've seen so far was the Su-25 "bomblet" addon at the OFP editing center. If they used that script or one very much like it then it will be I think one of the best fighter aircraft addons ever made because not only does the AI use the Su-25 bomblet aircraft really well, but it's also incredibly fun to use as a player. But anyways I hope Evi or one of the G8 members can clear up what the deal is with the weapons scripting. Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD>

If you mean that you can elevate the barrel high then that's not much of an artillery system.  But if you mean that you can accurately fire at a target that is, for example, behind a hill, then I for one would be very impressed.  The key word is *accurately*.  I have a had other arty makers tell me the same thing but it turned out that all they had was a tank gun that fired at a high angle.  There was no way it could be accurately targetted except for direct fire.  I hope indeed that you have gone beyond this.  If not maybe other people will enjoy just using it like a tank.  I'd probably just use it as a prop and just use a bunch of artillery simulation scripts.  Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD><span id='postcolor'> Well yes you can shoot  target behind a hill. Ill show u an example . Also the maximum range is 2km (In real life would be 4km at 45* but for OFP engine is betetr 2km) I will fire like this http://www.iquebec.com/quakergamer/m109_artillery1.jpg After some minutes,i've climbed the hill and I saw where my shell has landed http://www.iquebec.com/quakergamer/m109_artillery2.jpg And then, the distance it traveled on the map. http://www.iquebec.com/quakergamer/m109_artillery3.jpg As you can see it went over the hill <span id='postcolor'> Kewl. I guess that's going to have to be good enough. But I take it that you have to guess where the shell is going to land no? In other words is there any way to *accurately* attack a target you can't see? Or is it basically like a big M203 grenade with long range capability? If it's basically like a big mortar I guess that's ok until someone figures out how to make a proper artillery system. The closest person to do that was Goetterfunke or however you spell his name. However the one thing he couldn't do was to make the targetting system adjust depending on the elevation of the barell (which didn't move because he used the dummy howtizer). But I think the only people who can fix that problem would be the programmers at BIS. Even something just showing the gun elevation would be useful. That way at least once you found the target area, any other M109 gunners in your group (in a MP game) could match your elevation setting and all of you could fire like a real artillery battery. Anyways aside from that I think your M109 looks alright. The front maybe looks a little odd but I'd have to look at a picture of a real M109 to critique it better. But just do your best getting the model looking realistic on the outside and then try to texture it nicely. Anyways, I'm looking forward to your addon! Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD>

What sucks is that it requires the M4weapons pack which I don't have on my OFP Resistance because it's so damn big and hogs up valuable memory needed for other more critical addons. I wish he would split the M16 pack up into smaller packs or individual PBO's. That way we could pick and choose which M16's we want and which we don't want. But until he he does that, other then just trying the addon out, I have to skip on it and I just use smaller M4 addons like the STTM4Masterkey addon, which incidently works fine in Resistance.

As far as recon versions go, I think that you are thinking about the Little Bird's close relative, the Hughes MD-500 Defender gunship. Â That one has a nose mounted camera/FLIR and carries TOW missles. Â The AH-6 and MH-6 Little Birds however are only used by U.S. Army Special Operations units and have always (to my knowledge) been painted black.

Â The OH-6 fullfilled a variety of roles...everything from gunship, to flying Forward Air Controller missions, to Observation missions and carrying VIP's. But it would definitely be cool to see a Hughes MD-500 version with the nose mounted camera and with two TOW missles on one side, and a minigun on the other side. Â Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD>

The OFP engine is limited in that it only allows for one gun on an aircraft as far as I know. So while you can make two muzzle flashes go off when you fire the gun, you can't have more then one actual gun firing simultaneously on a vehicle. Even if you look at the twin M2 .50 cal guns on the West patrol boat that came with the game, it only shoots one line of tracers.....meaning only one actual gun. So what Adammo was saying earlier is that he can not get a higher fire rate using the 7.62mm ammo because of the limitations of the game's program architecture. He can however get a higher fire rate using the 5.56mm ammo which I think he was going to try messing with. That should work fine as they both kill infantry nicely and the higher fire rate means better saturation of the target area with your mingun bullets. Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD>

This way the addon is not required. Many people refuse to download missions that require map editor addons which is why I only made one mission that required gunslingers addon and I was forced to make a version that didn't require it after getting tons of complaints about that. However for those who hate working with Wordpad and who just want something integrated into the mission editor, your map editor upgrade is an excellent tool. However do you think Keg that you could also post the names of the new Resistance objects for those of us that prefer to use Word Pad? Thanks! Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD>

Cut down, with a pistol grip and a shortened barrel, it looks like a huge pistol. I want one of my special units to carry it instead of a handgun, what with the four clips of ammo, and still have a primary weapon. However, you can't exactly hold a shotgun as you would a pistol, so I'm wondering if there's any way that when the player pulls out his sidearm, he goes into the standard rifle stance and not the handgun stance. I can live without an animation of him cocking the shotgun, just as long as he holds it in a two handed rifle grip instead of a shotgun grip. By the way, I don't have resistance....yet. Â =( Any help appreciated! Thanks!<span id='postcolor'> Probably not possible, at any rate even if it was the rifle animation would not work well. Did you ever see any of the pistol addons made for OFP before Resistance came out? They used the rifle animation and it just looked stupid in my opinion because the left hand was just held out in front of the pistol supporting nothing. Better I think to have your short barreled shotgun held like a pistol in Resistance. Of coarse in real life you'd have to be nuts to fire anything like that in 12 gauge in either a two handed pistol firing stance or firing it like regular shotgun. I imagine it would flip black and smack you in the face or hurt your wrist. a .410 shotgun with slugs might be more useful. But of coarse in OFP it would look cool having a shotgun like that...kinda like that sawed off double-barralled shotgun used in Mad Max II (The Road Warrior). I think something like that would like fine in regular pistol stance used in OFP-Resistance. Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD>

I believe that's the same starlight scope that I used once during an annual training field combat exercises against OPFOR. If it is, it's a SWEET scope. It's got daylight filters on it also so it can be used during the day. While the magnification on it isn't all that impressive, it gives you a damn good view at night. But it's also heavy and bulky. As for whether starlight scopes could be mounted...I guess it would be a matter of scripting it where it basically acted as if you were putting on NVG's every time you hit the "V" key and then removing the goggles when you took it off the site/scope view. That might be possible but an experienced .cpp scripter would have to answer that. Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD>

But, Im affraid im gonna have to chime in here, from previous posts. I have Fired BOth the Gau-2b and the M134 both are VERY capable of firing and sustaining 6000rpm. But honestly all i want to know is one thing. DID YOU GET THE SOUND RIGHT. The AH/MH/OH-6 all have a very distinct sound. No other Helo sounds like it. For those of you that have actually heard an MD-500/530 you'll know what im talking about. <span id='postcolor'> No it's the same sounds as the Kiowa scout helicopter and minigun sounds are the same as Keg's Kiowa Warrior addon. Someone offered Adammo new sounds for both the rotor blades/engine and the minigun but Adammo said that he's not going to use them unless he modifies something else on the Little Birds as well. Â I was also looking forward to to better sounds on it as well, but that might not happen unless someone else makes the modifications. Â Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD>
