    hehe. The latest paragraph, yeh I'll probably post most of the story as it 'evolves' on here. The feedback could be helpful, MSN is good for this sorta thing, but anoynomous figures are more helpful, as they are not biased. <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> An ocean storm was creeping by on the windows as icicles began to form on the windows of the C-130J Hercules. Rain was splattering itself against the sides of the open rear cargo door. Two Fire Teams, Easy Red and Easy Green, their objective was yet to be made clear to them, so far as they had assimilated, they were en-route to a destination unknown with high explosives and modified M4A1 carbines. The humming of the engines and sharpness of the wind reverberated around the cabin. A loadmaster stepped down from the cockpit followed by a man in army combat attire, after coming down the stairs the man stood straight, reaching five-foot-eleven. At 29, he had a fit athletic tough look about him, sea blue eyes with dark brown hair and eyebrows. His face was closely shaven and lightly tanned and was a ranking corporal. His name was Fergus Campbell, call sign “Festerâ€. The pair walked across the metal threshold and seemed to survey that the rear cargo door and rear side doors were open. They returned back to the cockpit door, and after a lengthy conversation lasting almost 2 minutes, the loadmaster continued up into the cockpit, as Campbell began sorting through a plastic container. Campbell pulled from the container, 11 plastic booklets and 11 black masks, he then took one each for himself and stood up and approached each and every man in the cabin and handed him a booklet and the mask, each one in anticipation sat down and slowly opened the booklets, after two minutes, each man stood up, handed back the booklet and began adjusting they’re HALO [High Altitude Low Opening] gear, and placed the mask inside their packs. The men assumed they’re positions across the cabin as the loadmaster made the appropriate hand actions to indicate the drop zone was approaching. The loadmaster stared at his watch for a further 14 seconds before shouting ‘Go! Go! Go!’ The two teams ran down the rear cargo ramp, before reaching the end they jumped out into the darkness, rain droplets smashing against their goggles like paintballs. Each Fire team had a designated radioman but all were allocated and wore their own headset inside the HALO mask, almost simultaneously a voice echoed through each man’s earpiece. ‘Easy Red, this is Easy Green. We’ve been shaken out slightly North of our DZ, we may brush your shoulders, keep your eyes peeled, over’ ’Roger Easy Green, out’ Upon reaching 1000ft the team pulled their rip cords which in a enormous gush of wind broke out their parachutes decreasing their rate of decline dramatically. ’Easy Red’ landed one after another in a small clearing, they unclipped the moment they hit the ground, the chutes blown away with the storm winds leaving only the dark shadows that they were. The slashing rain had decreased in its incursion upon the ground; a slight ‘click, click, click’ was heard around them as the water droplets impacted on the hard soil. The tap of the adjustment of Night Vision was heard around as each soldier progressed in landing. Tall shrubbery was all that contained them as they established contact and re-organised, within the minute they were charging off into the desert heading North West, shapes of enormous mountains engulfing them, the suns rays more than minutes away from being capable of visibility. The first section after the prologue. I had fixed quite a few errors that are still evident in the first post on my way to school

    Great Video, what program you use And it seemed at some times you used a mouse to do spins and other things and other times with a joystick.

    This is the Introduction of my story. I have done 2107 words and it has a very effective story line. Feedback if possible <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> Friday, January 27, 0815 Hours Corporal. Tim Y. Sword and Sergeant. Steven T. Eric thundered down the hallway, bullets spraying concrete dust all over them, they ran for their lives as a group of men hunted them with Russian AK-47s, firing full - auto. The mud brick walls breaking as bullets pummeled into it. An inferno of bullets flew in every direction as their predators sprayed down the hallway. A bullet cracked open his hand as a bullet protruded through it. Sgt. Eric wasn’t so lucky, his head exploding as he fell limp against the wall with an awful thump, a gaping hole in the side of his left temple. Sword didn’t gaze back as his comrade fell, he just ran as fast as his legs could stride. Another burst of bullets sprayed against the wall as Sword turned a corner; the hallway ended with two doorways. He ran to the closest opening and dashed through the doorway, a glimpse of the hunters sprinting around the corner emerged in his peripheral vision, guns brought up to their shoulders searching for a target – him. Sword ran along the tunnel, in desperation for the escape he and his friends had longed for over an hour ago. A shine of sunlight came into view as Sword ran further up the tunnel, he sprinted towards them and ran out heaving, the hardened rays of the Afghani’ sun. No kind of relief came over Sword; as he looked over their HMMWV’s, completely destroyed, black wrecks smoking in the sun. As he stared out into the horizon hoping for a miracle his arms stretched out into the air, he became limp in a spurt of blood, a super-sonic 7.62mm bullet smacking into his spine, the impact knocking him off his feet as blood trickled out onto the hard ground, agony dispersing throughout his body. A man stepped over him and pushed down hard on his chest crushing his rib cage. The man wore desert combat fatigues with homemade webbing, a full face sheath covered his face with only an eye slit to see through masking all but his eyes. ’Laku noc’ The insurgent said loudly as he lowered a Glock at the Cpl’s forehead. Bang.

    How can you say cool, when you havent watched it. (hehe) *says its "Processing" at the moment, give a minute or two. @Zombies I release any vids I have laying around, because they're not going to hurt anyone and that just means more publicitity for OFP on YouTube.

    Another Top Gun video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dW2Ra857kJQ I personnaly reckon its good, the few clips at the very end were there because I didnt know what else to put there Note: I had some trouble with moving people on the deck, a common problem but I tried to make up with it as best I could. Note 2: I would've added a more extent on the take off section but its late and I wont be 'in the mood' to finish it off, when I wake up
  9. WGL 5.1 & Phoenix Island The only real point of this was so my friend could see what setacctime 0.01 could do, and to his amazement, he could see the tank shells/missiles/bullets (tracers) moving to their target.

    Any computer will lag if you do 5000 viewdistance when turning around, but then you will notice it runs fine if you turn that way again, I guess its must be loading everything as you turn or something.

    Destroyable Buildings Project

    Wow, I had thoughts about this last night and then I see it on OFP.info this morning, same idea aswell, cept it was for ArmA. The idea was to make the house full health, then when destroyed, rather than crumple (yuk :P ) it would mass lots of dust and collapse to 3/4 destroyed or destroyed. (The dust would cover the simple object replacement.) I personnaly dont like the idea of certain areas of destroyed houses because I find its unreallistic for OFP, say you shoot a rocket at a non destroyed part, then the side on the other side of the house blows off @Klavan Oh and a simple gamelogic scripted for all/some of the houses that are destructable thats able to placed should do it no?

    WGL Missions of the Month

    I made a mission for the clan I was in called Overlord, it was simply Nogova covered with 800 infantry (mixed res and east) and it was covered with Convoys/Fuel and Ammo Dumps/Patrols and anything else, we would conduct reconnaissance of a given area, and discuss what we can do with that area. We would then act on it and conduct the operation, do our objectives we wanted and then call it mission finish, after the hundreds of reinforcements came of course. We played that mission at least over 40 times before we started looking at other missions.

    Windows Movie Maker, standard with windows XP. hehe. OH and to do the IR Effect... hold one will post it... a few seconds later... http://www.windowsmoviemakers.net/Forums....ID=2530 Just follow the steps there to get the pack, make the folder it says (I use Windows Movie Maker, the one with XP, dunno what Movie Maker 2 is , anyway, then go into the program and you'll find it there under effects as RT Negative, then just put a grayscale over it and it looks good, then add other effects to make it look nicer. EDIT: @Batdog Its : Rob Zombie - Return of the Phantom Stranger and its based off the video you said, iraqi's being shotup by a Apache Gunship.

    A video I just made about the supposed Iraqi insurgents killed. Anyway, a video made replicating it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGiM4I8_Mo8 Using the IR effect, it was the first thing that came to mind that I could use for testing the IR effect in movie maker. (Note: The rock music is there to stop it being a silent movie.) P.S: The Tragics of War.
