Very nice! Thank you for the mirror.

Thanks!! We worked very hard on this... and its still a work in progress... Download and play it first to see what you think... Maybe you wont like it! :butbut: ;)

hehe Sorry about that... we are still working on the 7zip language... many thanks to Foxhound for helping us! .rar file is ready to go in the mean time... download away!

Hang on new site does not like 7z files working on rar hang on... technical issues

No attack! Bad attack! Very very soon...

With any luck, you should be able to decide for yourself shortly...

I want to try and head this off "at the pass." We are eliminating some errors encountered within the MOD... trying to get on the same page. Hang in there...

If this takes another 6 months to release... then I say its safe to say that the team is MIA or AWOL... haha

We try... As long as you guys are being patient... I say we have to be nice about what the status of the MOD is... only fair right? haha

No beating... We released the MOD internally (Round 1) and have been testing as you guys know... The second round of tests are about to begin since we found a few minor issues with the MOD files. We think we have corrected them, but need another internal test to confirm. Not long, we promise... :yay:

Please don't give CSJ anymore ideas... he has enough crap lurking around that wants to bite you... haha sharks, snakes rodents... hehe Not only do you have to worry about the other folks with weapons, there is junk running around the ground now...

We are working on a script that does a few different things... one picks up wounded troops via a dustoff, another will bring you new FNGs depending on how many spaces you have left in your squad and yet another will drop an ammo box to resupply your squad. I believe the script will work off of a designated area or you can click on a part of a map to keep it dynamic. Not sure where we are at with that, but apparently it works pretty well.

Looking pretty good there...

hahaha this reminds me of Unsung and OFP... we did the very same thing... offered a release date... and then got hung for it... back in 2005 or 2006 I think... We walked away from that saying NEVER AGAIN! no dates... when its released! its released!

I am glad you guys enjoyed the manual... We put a lot of time and effort into it... hope it shows... Hopefully, it will just get better... always looking for ideas on how to include additional information. Give us some time... we are firing up a new Nam website... old one died... :(

We have aussies in the MOD group... Skipping the Aussie Units is not an option... just down the road... can't include a weapon like the SLR and not make the aussies, right? :eek: ;)

Yes, I do remember Gedis! Crazy... seems like a very long time ago... Hope you like firing it...

Careful on the 40mm buckshot rounds... When the China Lake GL was designed, they tested both the M-406 HE 40mm round and the M-576 40mm buckshot rounds. The HE rounds loaded fine because the HE head was rounded at the edge which promoted a smooth loading process. The buckshot round on the other hand is not rounded like the HE round. It resembles a 40mm shotgun round, which is flat on the front side. During testing, the pump action grenade launcher continuously jammed because of this flat side to the buckshot round. There was nothing on the round or in the chamber that would allow the M-576 to load smoothly. Under testing, service branches were told they cannot use the M-576 round... only the M-406 HE round can be used. Therefore, in the name of realism, the China Lake 40mm P-A G/L only uses HE rounds... Sorry about that... I was excited about using the buckshot round as well... but it is not to be... Pictures of the rounds: M-576 Buckshot http://www.inetres.com/gp/military/infantry/grenade/40mm_ammo.html#M576 M-406 HE http://www.inetres.com/gp/military/infantry/grenade/40mm_ammo.html#M406 Hope this helps!

Yes, the SV troops will be in the MOD, albeit, down the road... I'll take the second part of your question as a rhetorical joke... haha The US troops never did really know who's side the ARVNs were on...

Very true! We understand... we are compiling the files (I believe) and gathering the final versions of the missions that will be included. Once that is ready... I hope to release the manual... in fact, I need to do a final walk through to make sure it is ready to go... give you guys something to read before the download becomes available...

Unfortunately... yes... all gone... But with that said, it is time to send ofpnam into the sunset... (happy trails...) We need to start work on ARMANAM now...

Absolutely... it really is a timing issue... we have the resources now, just need time to crank the missions out...

Ok ok ok... OFPNAM took a direct hit recently... not our fault... the web provider is "experiencing technical difficulties" at this moment... so I hope they can put ofpnam back in place... site looks like it was hit with a nuke... So we are finalizing a couple of our missions that will be released with the initial download... not a huge number of missions, but we need to kick this bad boy out the door so we can move on to the 2nd and 3rd releases... so you guys may have to deal with only a few missions for now... perhaps the community can come up with a bunch of its own... but realize we will be adding to the list with new missions once they are ready to go in the future. As far as MOD files go... we really are in the final stages of testing/tinkering... but I fear that we passed by the productive stages of testing... now the benefit of testing is outweighed by the loss of time... if that makes sense... So once our site is back up, we will be putting the files back together and maybe one final round of testing internally... and then kick it out to the community... we've been sitting on this long enough... time to cut loose and move on...

Anything and everything is open to discussion... We have more stuff on the radar to get through in future versions... but we are also open to adding stuff that the community wants to that list...
