    Killer apps

    tried that several times, still didn't work. OFP wouldn't recognize files. Besides hte editor works just fine and saves time.

    What for is it then?

    Killer apps

    I like to try just about everything. Unless I hear really bad things about it (like major glitches that cause OFP to crash). If you don't like it you can just dump the PBO/WRP file. Musts are: Gimbal's Planes Lost Brothers HK Addon Pack Gunslinger's editor upgrade or equivalent (if there is a better one I would appreciate input.) Jungle, Winter and Desert Island mods There are also some really good reskinned vehicles for Desert camoflauge etc.. I also like the Script Editor because I was having a hard time getting word pad to save files in OFP formats, it would tack on extra file extentions that I couldn't get rid of. My apologies if I left anything out. I haven't been able to sift through everything yet.

    Planes! do we really need them that much?

    </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">An A-C130, while it would be nice, would be sort of dumb, as the airfields are a tad bit small for them (unless the Big Ass Birds used rocket assisted takeoffs). <span id='postcolor'> The C-130 is by no means a large aircraft (have you even ever been in one, or jumped out of one?) It is considered a medium Tactical Airlift/ Utility Transport in the HC-130 configuration. I've said this before, but the C-130 has a very low stall speed to accomidate paratroopers, which also allows it to land on short airstrips. The C-130 also has massive landing gear which allows it to land on unimproved airstips and even flat areas that have no airstrip. So, hypothetically, even if the runways in OFP aren't long enough, there is alot of extra flat area in front of and behind the runway. Should be plenty of space. Also, the Rocket Assisted Take Off device is only used when extremely large cargos are involved which alters trim/stall speed charateristics. I thinks Gimbal's planes are a great compromise for OFP, it allows the fun of a dogfight at a managable speed considering the map size and visibility factors.

    Machine guns

    The FN MAG looks remarkably like the M240B (see pic of me below), which is also made by FN/Browning USA. Is it basically the same gun? I've never got my hands on an FN MAG. Also, does it eject the shell casings from the bottom like a 240B? This is an improvement over the 60 that I enjoy becase I am left handed, and you can't shoot a 60 left handed because the ejection port will puke hot brass all over you. The M240B may look similar to a 60, but if you open it up the actions are worlds apart. The FN action is ingeniously simple. Yes, the 60 is a piece of crap, and it jams alot. Like the FN MAG (FN is famous for adjustable gas system which allows thier guns to fire blanks, different types of 7.62 rounds etc without malfunctioning, also allows it to fire dirty,) the 240 rarely jams. Good sturdy weapon, and it is more accurate than the 60.

    8 amazing pictures of what you can do...

    I've landed inside of the LST before, but I've never landed onm the pad on back. Always bounce off. Is there a way to put fuel in the LST so you can drive it?

    `how to use the m209

    </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">Well, I think you can't aim with it in game cos in you can't aim with the real m203. Anyway, how would someone be able to aim with a weapon place were the m203 is place? <span id='postcolor'> Not true! The standard sight on an M-203 is a flip up leaf sight that is good for fast area target aquisition. There is also a removeable side mounted ghost ring sight that is more accurate, but it only works for right handed people. (I'm a lefty.)

    Lights on

    yeah, we call it noise and light discipline. Try operating in the field tactically at night, when you're not allowed to use even a red lense flashlight. With no NOD's it can be trying.

    What about a btr-80?

    I think a BTR line of vehicles would be nice. I would also like to see some German vehicles. Also, why don't OFP MBT's have turret stabilization? This is a piece of technology that makes modern MBT's more accurate and gives them great shoot on the run and target leading capabilities.

    New addon beta: scuba divers!

    At least you didn't try to get us with a "C-130 has been released" spoof.

    Do you want a herc?

    Looks like the "in favor" percentage went up five points since I was last here. Good to see. If this does go down. I hope that there will be an ability to jump both ramp and doors. Or at least a ramp that opens and closes. The ramp on the C-130 in DF2 is stuck open and looks really dumb when it is flying. Also, whoever decides to take on this project would have to make sure that the inside of the cargo bay is accurate, along with the "crew chief's seat" (toilet). This thing is basically a box on a platform. (It is extremely difficult to piss on a C-130 becuase of the turbulance). Talk about no privacy it is just out in the open. Although I have seen some that have a wrap around curtain. C-141's are much nicer, they have a commercial airliner style latrine. If anyone decides to undertake this project, let me know I will do anything to help.

    Why americans scare me

    My roomate and I build a pretty good potato cannon. We like to shoot golf balls out of it. The thought of shooting can of concrete is just so much more appealing. I know tons of cops through my job and through my national guard unit. Most of them are perverted, demented, and like to blow shit up. They don't give me any problems. As for the BATF, it is a unconstitutional, qausi-Gestapo crap organization. NRA forever!!!

I got Windows XP Pro for free as an evaluation copy. Also, people still buy whole computer systems retail instead of building them for 1/3 the price.

    Anyone ever crack kazaa?

    I agree. I think Kazaa is a pretty good setup. Especially if you have DSL. Anyway, I have no idea how to do what you are suggesting.

    Machine guns

    The machine gun is generally the most casualty producing weapon in an infantry squad. This is why they are used as the initiating weapon in an ambush if no claymores are available. I personally have caused much death and destruction in OFP with the M/G's. Just like in real life, the M/G's in OFP are horribly inaccurate when fired from any position but the prone. This is due to the massive amount of barrel climb produced from firing such a high volume of fire. M/G's are also great for laying grazing suppressive fire (1 meter off of the ground @ 100 meters distance). I noticed that the AI in OFP will react to suppresive fire, and it inhibits thier movements and ability to return accurate fire.

    .50 cal rifle

    </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE"> The AW50 rifle is based on the same design and ergonomic principles as the other rifles in the AW family and is constructed to function reliably with all the various natures of commercial and ex-military stock .50 BMG ammunition. Features include a built-in anti-recoil system and an adjustable third supporting leg to help precision in aiming, as well as a folding stock and a total weight (less ammo) of 16Kg (35lbs). <span id='postcolor'> That's a big ass rifle @ 35 pounds. The M240B weighs in right around 28, would hate to be the poor bastard that has to hump that thing. Sure is a mean looking SOB though.
  21. Being in the Spec Ops community in real life, I am extremely interested.

    Parajumpers

    I've personally never seen anything except OD green chutes in my career. But, hey it's not a terrible idea. More than that, I would like to see different variations of chutes. The one used in the game resembles the plain old T-10C. I would like to see the MC-1B or C, and to have it be manueverable just like the real ones. Maybe the "smokejumper" (I forget the nomenclature) rig that 10th SFG(A) uses here in Colorado. Which is very manueverable. I got airborne on the brain though, and I doubt I'll ever see such things in OFP.

    Mission idea

    Yeah, trench warefare would be something new. It would be alot of work though. It would also be cool if you could simulate mustard gas using smoke.

I never stopped to think about that one before. The only way I could see using it is if the player is commanded by AI. Grunts don't get to see the big picture. They just follow NCO leadership.
