Shadow NX

The news said in the next few hours something might happen :o

Guys, i watched AAN this morning and it seems things escalate at the Chernarussian border after a russian SU-25 was shot down by CDF troops. I took some screens from the report, seems things can get hot within the next few hours. Click pics for bigger version.

We will make you switch sides, hehe ;) Also, fitting to the Olympics we just gone Gold :o

If any of our guys has some not posted yet he might share them here, that or you wait few days and check the thing ingame yourself :)

More modern T-80Us are in the works but wont make it into the very first release, no 64s yet and as they dont play any real role anymore they arent high on the priority list. Also there will be some of the older but still used Tanks but also not in the initial release. On the positive side you can check out this initial release version very very soon ;)

Sorry to be the party crasher but not at this point of development. Currently we have the AK74M ( which will come in several variants ) because A2 lacked one and currently Metal works on a new SVD apart from that there arent much plans in these regards yet. Maybe later we can make something like the AK-12 but dont count on it as i isnt availeable in any bigger numbers so far so not really important for a Russian Army mod at this time. Currently focus is on getting the mod so far that we have a stable first version for release.

That is one very nice video, really nicely made although i really miss a HD version of it. KaaDragon, if you read this please contact me or Alex if youre intrested in making a release trailer, i would love that :) We have lots and lots of new stuff for that ;)

There is/was a promising Tiger-M project but the guy making it went MiA currently... happens very often in modteams, a story as old as OFP :(

Or just switch to a SSD, did that and texture popping is nearly non existant. Ramdisk may be even more fast but before i get that much Ram and configure the thing i just installed a SSD and all was fine. Also got Windows 7 on it which boots extremely fast so win win.

If Amazon doesnt lie then i have a Boix with iron Front and two packs of delicious English Tyrells Crisps waiting for me... too bad i have one more customer after the regular worktime... cruel world... :o

Doubt it. They developers said they didnt touch the engine itself, plus a effect like this can easiely be tricked. Some mirrors of newer vehicles or glass of scopes has similar effects that look like reflections but arent as it is just a texture that moves with the vehicle and has a glass looking supershader on it.

I think our T-80s were pretty fast and relative strong especially when player controlled, however dont forget that these were relative old B and BV variants. Kenji still works on some U variants that will feature generally overhauled base models but that might take a good bit more time.

I think you mix something up as NSX isnt ( i havent seen him online in ages, anyone knows anything? ) a modeller or texturer but more a talented screenmaker and project coordinator. On Topic: The TIGR looks great, looking forward to finally see a good one in A2. RHS also has one in the works but there currently not much moves in the production line so this one will most likely be released faster :)

Well in reference to how Guba would really look you can always google up some Jim Darling ( of Codemasters ) pics as his face was used for Guba. http://kwaleehosting.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Jim-Darling-GFC.jpg

Not a stupid question but no currently nothing is planned in these regards, focus is on a european theatre currently.

@(2142)Gen.Reaper Currently not, but once the mainly needed stuff is done many things are possible. But dont count on it.

Correct me if im wrong as im no scripter or even have any skill with the editor but isnt there a part in the readme that explains how to set gear and decals to your liking? Afaik only the T-80 gear is random, the decals should be free to choose by the mission maker. About things liek engineer variants of vehicles, yes i really hope we can add such stuff too but for now we dont really have anything in the pipeline in these regards. Maybe Lazarus and his great eye for lil details can help there later.

Is that a hypothetical someone or a existing someone Maa? :p Would really love to see that, loved the story back then and the campaign had great moments. I still remembered when the soviets surrendered me at the house near the lake and how i was thinking what to do... run behind the house and nade them to death was the answer.

Best would be if you contact Soul about it via PM, hes closer to the coding than any of us i think.

Wouldnt mind if it were real and i would even buy it but it could also be a ( rather lame ) april fools joke. Bis be more creative like Wargaming Especially the Ratte video :p

If any good coders with some time on their hands are joining in this might happen a lot faster but atm everyone is short on time.

This is a thing that got discussed a few times, some say that the forces should be modern equipped but personally id say we need a wide range of stuff and that also includes older tanks etc too. We have them anyway and they are in the works since a long time, yet they still slowly make progress along with Kenjis great t-80U variants. So id say yes but possibly not in the first release. --- Also we as always are looking for people intrested to help or even better join the project. What we always look for is: - Texturers - Coders - 3d Artists - Terrain designers - Mission designers - Animators But anyone who thinks he has somethign for us should feel free to contact me or Alex. A guy who would make a new GUI for the mod or for example the artillery system would be very welcome too. Whats not really needed atm is testers, we got a lot of these onboard already.

Oh so im not the only one getting odd PMs on daily basis from him that i gave up answering each day after the hmm 5th or 6th basicly saying the same :o

Well if you cant find reference then who can, id say take a look at your models and brainstorm how you would fieldmod them and do it that way. As these were all different this should suit you.

That should be the Nemezida LBV, cant check atm but im fairly sure.
