RedStorm

I'm from Holland so I don't care about any Huey. It just seems to most probable helicopter for Resistance units (cheap)

It's a great mission. I love the intro. Amazing! Born to be Wild lol! Still has me laughing . Great work Ex-RoNiN lolol

Great, thx!

Well, I want to place these weapons on the ground in my map (making a weapons cache (sp?)) so I made the 'Game Logic' object and called it wep1. I then made a script in my mission map called wep and I put this in it: </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">_gunspot = "WeaponHolder" createVehicle (getPos wep1) _gunspot setDir (getDir wep1) _gunspot addWeaponCargo ["m60",1] _gunspot addMagazineCargo ["m60",4]<span id='postcolor'> Now the problem is, the gun does show up in the map, but I can't pick it up. Any suggestions? (I put this exec "wep"; in my Game Logic object btw )

Â I havent' done it (don't really want to), but I'm sure that it's possible. Â Just take as little damage as possible during the crash. If you're spinning into the ground at 300 knots, you're not going to survive, but if you gently do a belly landing on a road or something, you could make it.<span id='postcolor'> I wasn't talking about the airplanes, you usually don't survive a jet crash....actually, you never survive a jet crash, but I was talking about the helicopters. And another idea, wouldnt it be better that helicopters, just like tanks and trucks, could "run over" trees (I mean, makig them fall down when they hit them). It just doesn't seem very realistic that a Blackhawk going around 300 mph crashes into a tree and the tree just remains standing. Maybe this could be fixed too. Oh, and another thing, I think you should be able to run over trees in a forest, although I think the current engine won't allow things like this...oh well, Suma, are you reading all this? EDIT: as to edc's question: You do shoot up in the air, the ejection seat just isn't modeled. Try it: Take an A10 and fly up to, let's say, 700 feet. Press eject. You'll see that you shoot up into the air.

I loaded myself up with an M16 with no clips, I armed myself with no axtra grenades, just the LAW and every slot used for a LAW rocket Still can't kill the tanks though . I'm dying to see the outro

I asked for an opinion and if it was true that a bit of code had been found in one of the internal OFP scripts. But yea, it might as well go in ADDONS&MODS anyway.

Yea that one looks mint! I'd either like to have a old Littlebird for the Resistance, armed with one PK or it would also be cool for the Resistance to have a Huey (left over from 'Nam perhaps) or some kind of old Russian helicopter (I don't know much about Russian helicopters so I can't give any names).

*Cries* I keep getting my ass kicked by the tanks (T80, T72, BMP) any sugestions? Oh well, I might try grabbing one of the Strela launchers there. I equiped myself with a LAW but I ran out of my three rockets very fast (one for each machine gun on the beach and one for the Howitzer), but even with the strela launcher, I seem to be in a grim position. I only get one shot and I never managed to take out a T80, T72 and BMP with one strela . I like the mission very much though. It great fun to jump out behind those houses and open up on the enemy, quickly switching to a LAW and blasting the Shilka before it can take a shot at you.

I haven't, I keep getting myself killed in the village, but now I know there's an outro I wont rest until I've completed it lol, that intro was amazing

I remember reading in a thread a while back that someone found a bit of text in a script about a Jetranger. Has any info about this been released yet? And what are your thoughts? Do you think it will be released in the next patch or not? Give me your thoughts! Also, what do you think: do the civilians/Resistance need a helicopter, or should BIS spend their time on doing NATO/Russian helicopters, landvehicles etc.?

Well, it would be really cool if BIS could implement a 'survival chance system' in elicopters (helicopters only mind you, you often dont surive a crash with a fully loaded/fueled A10 Thunderbolt II ), but like I said, it would be cool to have a survival ratio which could check how fast you hit the ground and then consider your survival chances (hit the ground at 200+ mph, no chances of survival, hit the ground at 200mph, 10%, hit the ground at 100mph 30%, hit the ground at 80mph 50%, hit the ground at 60 mph 70% etc. etc.)

There has been much debate about this; some say the next official Resistance style campaign will be Independence Lost (http://www.independencelost.com/) and some say that Independence Lost is actually OFP 2. Only time will tell.

Emotions? Anyway, I'm sad to see you go Hilandor. Drop by some time

Very good! You managed to capture the amazing rate of fire this gun has and did a damn good job at it. Like I heard one of the veterans on Band of Brothers say: "It sounded like ripping canvas", which this sound modification imho does. Great work.

Trying it out now

It is possible to add radio chatter to your addons. Martin's Huey had background chatter at random intervals (real Vietnam recordings I think).

You can already dowload the Masterkey combination and as for the scoped rifles, yes, I'm looking forward to those too

Why can't any of you view PDF files? It comes standard with every windows (95, 98, 2000, Xp). You should all be able to view PDF files (except perhaps the ones that use Linux). Btw, I already loved your normal microlights and these are even better . Thx loads for such a nice addon!

Glad to have been of assistance

Yes, I noticed this too. Ever since 1.30 camo out, the M60 has been totally under-powered, while in real life, I reckon, it has more stopping power than the M16. The same goes for the FN-FAL and G3. They house 7.65mm (x56?) while the M16/M4 (Xm177e2) only house 5.56mm.

Yes, I lost all of my weapons on that mission too. This is a known problem and you could've found more threads concerning this. The only thing to do is to revert to the last mission (the one where you have to capture the outpost and base) again. This is a pain but it's the only way to get your weapons and ammo back.

It's totally realistic...too bad the models and sounds are directly copied from DoD

...or german, or from the Dutch Antilles (sp?) or from South Africa lol Those are nice models indeed, but why need a texturer? The textures look good to me

Do you mean a mortar script or a mortar launcher as a new unit?
