hey guys, probably havent heard from us, maybe you played on our server but otherwise you wont really hear about us. we are a realism unit that wants to achieve 100% realism by creating custom missions, using real world tactics and first hand experience. we have several soldiers in our ranks including myself. our unit is a squad sized unit, we put quality over quantity and we want a small tight group of guys that can play together without doubting each other. we are a cool group of guys on and off the game, we try hang out and try to get to know each other so we grow into a small band of brothers. when we go out to play we treat it as if it was the real world, we post op orders and go over the mission before we role out. we operate under SOP's and we implement a bit of role play to increase the realism factor, for example, in our missions you get 1 life, if you loose it you are out of the mission and you are no longer allowed to talk on ventrillo until the operation is over. sounds boring right? exactly, thats why we train and work together to keep each other alive, we rely on each other and again the band of brothers factor is on point again. also our missions are scenarios out of the real world again brought to the gamer from first hand experience. we dont have missions where the enemy has 20 tanks, 10 jets, 5 helos and 200 infantry, no our missions have realistic enemies i.e. a city full of civilians and insurgents that pop up on rooftops around corners, IED's and VBIED's, inside buildings and courtyards, crowded market places etc, just the things you find in the real world. currently we are running a Middle Eastern Campaign called OPERATION DESERT DUST, you can find several Videos on Youtube but to make it easy, here you go ( side note, our last operation was nearly 3 hours and we have official operations every sunday ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQHdd8orx4s&feature=channel_page http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlJUaQ8sKNc&feature=channel_page http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jycREKZ-1MI&feature=related those are the last 3 operations of the ODD campaign, leave a comment if you want to anyways, we dont just let anybody join the unit since we want motivated, dedicated and ACTIVE members that we can rely on. if you want to get involved, get to know some guys and stay active in a unit then you might wanna give this a shot, I PROMISE THE GAMING EXPERIENCE WE PROVIDE IS UNHEARD OF AND YOU WILL NOT FIND ANOTHER UNIT LIKE THIS. i dont say this to lure you in from other units, i say this because all my guys have stated this at least once during their time in the unit and i think its worth putting out there. we are currently looking for 2 new members, our available slots are regular infantryman or medic. i hope i got you interested and if you want to know more stop by our forums and maybe post an application.

hey guys, ive been going up and down forums and websites and cant figure it out, i want to script it to where the player CAN NOT move but still can use his mouse. disableinput or what it is does not work since it takes out the mouse. i want to disable a players movement for 30 seconds but still let him use his action menu/ mouse controls. before the mission starts the player spawns and stands still for 30 seconds, he can use his mouse to scroll into his action menu where he will find load out classes for example, rifleman, automatic rifleman etc. once he selects it he receives the loadout after 30 seconds the mission starts. any ideas around my problem or any pin point solutions? thanks guys Dog

should check us out might be on a similar sheet of music here SSG Mauro 25th ID

wow can you cook? cuz if you can will you marry me? ill try this out first thing tomorrow and let you know how it goes thanks man EDIT: THIS WORKS PERFECT, thank you so much man

wow reduced saturation looks amazing! is it going to stay that waY?

hey guys, heres my problem, been going for a while. i got a new laptop a few months ago and every time i play arma on random occasion my screen blacks out and after a few seconds i get receiving... and then its back. i found one other person that has the same problem and i cant explain why or how to fix it. is this a known problem or still new??? any help??? The Dog

i think its like maddmatt said, lets all hope its not going to be an invisible wall^^

ok eble sounds good, maybe at a later release touch up the texts a bit.

will it stay black or will it be released in green as well, never saw one in black used by the army. they usually just look black because the green is so dark. would be nice for realism purposes

great addition to this would be the Nimitz stationed away from the island where the US side would start, or maybe an extra separate island.

i just wanted an update on the textures, cant even ask anymore? man, so damn serious...

update update update hows it coming along? any updates on the textures?

keep in mind we need to chop off that door first^^ granted the 556 goes through those doors but still it wouldn't look right, but i agree im sure gnat would help, hes a cool guy

oh man... i salute with all respect, i am active duty army, and i am part of the funeral drill team in my area, i fold the flag and pass it to the family, not an easy job... EDIT: sorry to get off topic. would love to see one without doors im telling you and the shooting out the side with m4 would be AMAZING but those are just cherrys on the pie, not really needed

could you increase the zoom just a weeee bit? that would be amazing, and will there be a version with out doors? would be nice but if not no biggi

everybody is drewling, ive been waiting for months and months for this, had a question regarding the zoom, seeing it being a recon chopper it would be great to have an amazing field of zoom, whats the current zoom capability right now?

hey guys, our website was down for some time but our new website, redesigned and restructured is up now. its not 100% yet but its getting there. visit and maybe register. also leave a comment on the website and maybe something we can improve on. SFC Mauro http://173rdrealism.net/

you should add a version with out the front doors. that would be nice to see

hey guys im rather new around here, got a few vids for you guys, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHVwuDy2mZQ&feature=channel_page this one i made for my current realism unit, 173rd enjoy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qMmsK3TyK8&feature=channel this one i made for my last realism unit, 15th meu, this project has been scrapped and wont be completed, just gonna leave it at a teaser. also check this one out, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJXUq5Ialys&feature=channel old old work, we attempted to make a MOVIE rather then a video clip of war scenes with cool music, i would love to go after this project again and actually come out with a movie but i dont have the people to pull it off, need allot of people to shoot the scenes, trying to stay away from AI, they really cant do what im looking for^^ i hope you guys like it and leave some comments

hey guys Sgt Mauro here, made a little recruitment video, in this video we demonstrate our level of realism. the scenario is set up, but the communications are recorded from the guys playing, so YES THESE ARE OUR ACTUAL IN GAME RADIO PROCEDURES! i hope this gets you guys going and i hope it will draw some new members!
