Don't be afraid to throw away a model and restart it, especially while learning the trade. I redid the BAS Blackhawk many times before I was happy with it! Keep learning. STT

OpticsZoom vs. DistanceZoom

Keep in mind that those figures are for OFP, I haven't tested it in ArmA yet. STT -

As mentioned above, the scope texture used would have an impact as well. STT -

From the original OFP, so will need some testing in ArmA (don't have it yet). Note, in OFP the default magnification level was 2x SelectThis -
For solider cpp, you're missing a }; at the end of the cfgmodels. SelectThis

don't forget the ; in the model line. SelectThis

custom satchel (class pipeBomb) doesn't work in MP
SelectThis replied to 5133p39's topic in OFP : CONFIGS & SCRIPTING
If they work properly in Single Player then what you may have to do in MP is to unequip all weapons and mags, then re-add them at the start of the mission. STT -
Question about ballistics in OFP
SelectThis replied to General Barron's topic in OFP : CONFIGS & SCRIPTING
AFAIK initspeed is the only one which affects directly affects trajectory. Indirectly, the zoom settings will affect how much the you need to raise the aim spot to compensate for bullet drop. So if zoom settings are the same and constant then just the initspeed. Missiles have more variables eg: initTime, thrustTime, thrust, maneuvrability and maxSpeed. Trajectory not so relevant for a "guided" missile, but for non-guided ones those figures will affect the flight. I think the model (especially the GEO lod) is a factor as well. STT -
It's not so much the EH that uses system resources, it's the scripts that the EH runs. Having to run a script for each bullet that is fired would create slowdowns. HD via dispersion settings was always a compromise solution, hopefully BIS will change the way things work in the future games - eg have two dispersion settings, one for the weapon and one based on the skill of the unit. Might be a better idea to focus discussion in those forums to get the system fixed STT

Last time I tried it, ILS only worked for North-South runways. STT

Nice work! And i mean "work"...I fully understand the effort that went into this. Good job all. STT

Muzzleflash visible on ODOL weapons
SelectThis replied to ag_smith's topic in OFP : CONFIGS & SCRIPTING
Bizarre Binarize! I know you said the cfgmodels was correct but best to go over it with a fine tooth comb (even post it here). Check the p3d names match with the cfgmodel classnames even down to the Capitals and lowercase. Once you run binarize what do you do with the files? I usually take the binarized model out of the "opt" folder and put it back into a copy of the mlod folder, then pack that into a pbo. STT -

make sure a copy of the cfgmodels is in the folder that you binarize. STT -
How to move .p3d models to a different addon?
SelectThis replied to General Barron's topic in OFP : CONFIGS & SCRIPTING
Following on from vektorboson said, you can use a hex/texteditor (my preference is Ultraedit) on both ODOL and MLOD p3ds. The thing to remember is this: For MLOD do not change the number of characters in the path name. eg: Original texture path: data\drevo_dirkate.pac (18 char not counting the suffix) edited texture path mypbo\afolder\texa.paa (18 char not counting the suffix) For ODOL, you can change the number of characters.

Did you try deleting all the selection names then running a Structure-> Convexity -> Component Convex Hull ? Important to delete all selection names before hand to avoid doubling up. STT
