Rambo-16AAB

Can anyone reccommend a decent host where I can rent a flashpoint server? Currently have one with gameservers.net but im not happy with the service. thanks

This is an AdHoc mod of sorts. We are using Community sourced addons with the permissions of the Authors to produce a Simple British Kit mod for Arma. The Goals of this project are two fold:- 1:- Have some sort of British mod available 2:- Have the Addon Makers who make the addons receicve credit and recognition for their addons and they can get them used. ( lots of great addons get made but seldom get used online as there individual addons, and not part of a Mod ). A discussion area is avaiable on our website for this, including a section for addon makers who would like to see there addons in the Mod ( initially were looking for UK kit obviously, but in the future we will probably need opfor gear to add a bit of ballance ). As it states in the pic, this is a community sourced mod. Initial thanks goes to G H Play ( AKA Boss ) and the total Damage team For the Landrovers, Soldiers & Harriers Map Fact for the Apachie & Chinook BK1276 for the Cammo nets & Landing craft A full list of Credits will be published with the first public release of the mod Disclamer bit. The project is not related to or part of in any way shape or form, any Project UKF or RKSL productions for Arma.

Good idea. problem is I didnt take any screen shots during the earlier stages, and even if I did, who would believe me.

Well there has pretty much been a witch hunt going on since this project was started by those who would have rather not seen this project started, so no surprise this is comming from the same. As for the lynx, the one you have produced as a match i can safely say ive never seen it before. Dong one with wheeles was te reason that I chose one with wheeles, ive only ever seen scren shots of the usual TOW armed with skids. The permissions issue is a non starter, we have always seeked permission, most reciently was the Merlin, and I have even approached BIS re perssion about their moddified landrovers because of the MLOD post that arose. Why should I steal anything now ? Permission before release has been and always will be the policy. Take youe insecurities & your witch hunt else where.

Well, the Lynx for example is already flying in game. Thats went from prototype to flyable model in a week, give or take a day or so. Our production line is running flat out at the moment.

The plan is not to publicly release anything untill the Full version of V1.09 is released by BIS. Untill that point we keep aquiring the base units, then improving on them where we can. After the 1.09 full release, we may release a public BETA of the pack to get a better idea of feedback for the people that will be using it. It depends how far we get by that point. We cant use the DKM 432, My 432 was built to that point in 2 hrs as an experiment to see if I could actually do it but will now be shelved once an agreement with JB has been reached for the use of his 432 model. Were trying to get the units to a functional level, then work on the improvements & fine tuning. Current status Landrovers - awaiting texturing & scripting Soldiers - awaiting texturing & scripting Merlin - Receiving first set of tweeks & fixes Gazelle - Finished retexturing, Flight model tweeks pending Puma - awaiting scripting tweeks Lynx - awaiting detailing of the basic model before texturing & scripting Chinook - awaiting retexturing & flight model tweeks AH64 - operational 432's - as per above

Yep, he grated us permission to use it, so its going to get used in the manor it deserves.

No plans for ether Wessex or Scout at the moment, but who knows what the future will drop on our doorstep.

Another Merlin testflight pic :-

Sent you a PM

Lol, the guy in the 432 is a placeholder. Hes wearing a Dinner Suit at a coo's lick hairdoo, not a hat. Gave me an idea of the scale of the 432's body so, Dinner suit or tank suit, hes serving his purpose at the moment. hes one of identicle triplets, his brothers are in the Drivers seat & the turret as well, you just cant see them in that shot.

Its been talked about, but not started yet. BK1276 is dong Troop transport, rearm & refuel version of the Stalwart ( for those who can remember that classic bit of kit )

And anoher bit of kit joins our lineup. Thanks to Footmunch for permission, and BK1276 for the conversion work :-

Well, Ive been playing with the M113 chasis and ive made a 432ish type model. this is very WIP yet :-

For the fast rope anim. if you had a sodier in rifle holding position looking up ( as in pointing the rifle to the sky) his hand would be almost in a suitable position, if he didnt actually have the rifle in them .

I know my rear verticle struts are not 100%, but im on the limits of my own capabillities with O2 and I wouldnt be able to animate them. Im passing it to BK1276 for the next phase, so maby he can improve on those a bit. My wheels are actually the front wheel of the BIS example A10 that I resized to fit.

We have a puma thanks to the Bush wars mod Guys & GH play ( AKA Boss ) who is doing the reskin of it. The puma is going through its final preparations & scripting at the moment.

The Lynx is having the basic GPMG door gun configuration as seen here :- http://www.airliners.net/open.fi....oto_nr=

There are no weapons of any kind on our version of the gazelle. Its been flown, its flying very nice to be honest, its got a temporary texture on it aquired from elsewhere for testing, and its overall dimensions have increased slightly as the pilots helmet was sticking through the top of the canopy on the original version. still to do :- Reskin internal/external textures Scripting the Starup/shutdown FX I would post an in game screen shot, but My Pc & Screen shots are not the best of friends, it makes the gazelle look like its ate all the pies.

Lynx WIP. And here is a link to a pic of the type Im basing it on :- http://www.airliners.net/open.fi....to_nr=9

Im looking to create some custom background animations, like the kind that are constantly playing in the background of the games menu screens etc. I understand it will be created using the mission editor, but is there a specific file the mission needs added to or how do I define that animation to play in the background etc. thanks.

true, but thats all the info I can remember from the news bulitin.

It was on BBC Scotland news about a week or so ago. A Heli repair base up here is going to close with the loss of X ammount of jobs due to the planned removal from service of Lynx & seaking , which is the two types they service at that base. ( cant remember the name ).

the odd shape is caused by 2 things 1:- my widescreen monitor which does odd things to screen shots 2:- my own own learning "curve" with the curvy shapes in the gazelle (pardon the pun ). I hadnt heard about the withdrawall of the Gazelle ether, but I had heard of the withdrawall of the Lynx the end of the year ( it was on the news ). This one im building from photos taken last summer. The fox was in the DKM pack, so it was being converted. If it actuall makes it into the mod or not is a different matter. Its more appropriate to Col Falkners mod and we have a good bit of cooperation with each other. His mod covers up to the mid 80's so we might continue from that point with our mod. It depends on how much we can source or build within a reasonable time scale. P.S. the trailer is an experiment. I have a few ideas on it and that Ladrover combi was created a the test bed for it.
