    @ sachasemtex

    Below is a part of a previous post in this thread.

    Well i personally have a frame rate of around 14-22, it's kinda

    moving up and down. But we are improving still on the frame rate, trying to get it up more and more. We are highly aware that many do not have high tech PC's to play with so we are trying to do everything we can to increase the framerate. Just for info i have a Quad core (Q6600) 2.4 GHZ, 3 gig of ram and a lowsy standard GeForce 8600 GS. The video shown in a above post was shot with my PC. Hope that gives ya a answer m8  smile_o.gif

    Oh and a lot of the screens in this thread are even not made on my machine. All the screens together come from all kinds of different spec machines.

    Any updates? smile_o.gif

    There is a series of new screenies and a quick vid @ ofpnam http://www.ofpnam.com/news.php

    That's old stuff Sav. Been posted 2 pages back already tounge2.gif

    Well sh*t! I just realised we never showed the public a close up firefight. Well here goes then  wink_o.gif

    This small vid is shot with a 6 men enemy Vietcong team just strolin' along at early morning and some fog. My own 6 men SF team is hidden in the bushes nearby and ready to create hell. Watch closely, this is hell unleashed at 50-100 meters. It's over in a heart beat.

    Click for ambush firefight

    p.s. No this setcaptive true or false has been used. They are really not seeing us and we are really messing them up with force, ya can even hear the m60 going nuts tounge2.gif

    p.p.s. This firefight vid was made at an open firelane location...somehwere...out there...wherever..at some location long forgotten...

    I noticed the thick, dense jungle. Are there enough allys and clearings with routes in and out to create firing lanes, set up ambushes and the like.

    Yes there are. There's patches of empty jungle here and there, lower grass, more open area's etc. So plenty of ambush country around and places to set up firing zones.

    Also, do you have clearings with tree stumps to simulate past LZs cut into the jungle?

    I understand that you want a totally dense environment but clearings, allys, gullies etc would be a good addition.

    We have enough LZ's around the place, differing from huge to small. Some of them are even fully cleared and have no growth what so ever. Others have lower growth up to waste height or just to the head. But we currently have no damaged tree models that would have the LZ look like it's been a man created clearing by bombs dropped (daisy cutter) a month or so earlier with still some burn marks all over the place.

    Another question regards the bases.

    Have you created full bases or just left big dirt textured clearings for us to build our own? I'd prefer the latter.

    We have full bases and we also have dirt textured clearings with no growth for peopl eto use as LZ's or as locations for self made bases.

    Also, if you have created your own bases, Have you left enough flat ground between the wire and the treeline? Many modders have jungle/trees/bushes right up to the wire. Obviously nowhere near realistic.

    And yes we have flat ground from the base wires towards the jungle a fair distance away from the base wires. There may be some small growth around here and there but that's like 1% and consists of maybe 1 or 2 bushes around the entire bases. It's ,ostly just dirt around the bases towards where the jungle starts. Plenty of clear fire ground and no way to hide for Charlie.

    LMFAO!!!  rofl.gif

    Nice screenies. What's the frame rate like?

    Well i personally have a frame rate of around 14-22, it's kinda

    moving up and down. But we are improving still on the frame rate, trying to get it up more and more. We are highly aware that many do not have high tech PC's to play with so we are trying to do everything we can to increase the framerate. Just for info i have a Quad core (Q6600) 2.4 GHZ, 3 gig of ram and a lowsy standard GeForce 8600 GS. The video shown in a above post was shot with my PC. Hope that gives ya a answer m8  smile_o.gif

    Does the viewblock work well for AI in this thick vegetation?

    The view block is working to some extent. Currently it's working in the way that your behaviour out in the jungle is the reason for you to get spotted quick or slow. As the AI can still hear you out there. So if you go around in crouched pos but are breathing heavily, they will "hear" you approach and will spot you. If you go in slowly without much breathing they will not hear you that quick and you can get closer. If you walk up and tall, the AI will spot you quick enough. If you shoot nearby them they will spot you fast as hell and your only survival will be chucking your stupid body behind a tree and hope you have enough cover to shoot from. Basically, the current jungle environment and AI behaviour asks of the player to move around in silence and not show himself to much. You will have a fighting chance then. Walk tall and proud and act like Rambo...well you'll be sure to get the next ride out of the boonies in a bodybag. Also this we are still advancing on to see how far we can push the ArmA engine and fix the AI vision, so we can balance out the chances of the player against the AI. We want the player to have a chance out there and not get pissed for fighting enemy he can't see (although pretty accurate to the real thing).

    Anyone any more questions, please go ahead and ask. We will try to answer as well as we can.  wink_o.gif

    We have another batch of screenshots for people to gaze upon. In these shots you see some of the Marines we are working on, the Special Forces that you already know, 2 of the Hueys and a taste of the vegetation on the island.

    Also we are showing you a small video of some of the stuff that will be in our R1 release for ArmA. Internal testing of the R1 files has started.

    Special Forces in a fight

    Marines coming in on a LZ

    Marines approaching a ruin.

    Special Forces walking the boonies.

    Unsung R1 promo Video

    Also we do want to point out that these shots and video are WIP and already outdated. Enjoy.

    Update time:

    I've got more time lately, some of my exams are over and I get a bit more slack time.

     smile_o.gif

    Great! Hope they went well m8

    In other news my car died out completely in a pile of steam and smoke, I'm guessing to compensate for all the free time I'd be having not doing college work.

    Please don't let it be a YUGO, please oh please lol

    The factory just closed this month! There goes your warranty lmao  rofl.gif

    In any case this might mean that I might actually get back into the swing of things. But don't expect anything any time soon. I'm still an expert procastrinator and just generally lazy and sometimes unmotivated.

    Woopey! Thank you for long cold winters and slipery roads. Now ya can stay in (no car) and work some  tounge2.gif

    i cant believe what i get to read here.

    When i read those things i am gonna to like throwing this all thing to wastecan or i make my progresses just like i want and can and play with my terminators of my own.

    Hi m8,

    There are always gonna be people around that will say all kinds of negative stuff. Mostly because they don't understand what effort it takes to make things and have no idea that many of the people that make addons spend a lot of their little free time making the addons. It's sad to have to hear it and sometimes you can feel like you are doing it for nothing. But it's really up to you if you want to make something or not and wether you want to release something or not. You are the maker of these addons and if someone is giving you a hard time about release dates etc, well just tell them to go make their own. And you know what...most of the times they cannot.

    It's pretty simple, you are making it, they wanted it. If they cannot bring up the patience and understanding of what you are doing to give them what they want then well screw 'em. In the end, it's your decision no matter what someone else says. Take as much time as you want to make it. period.  smile_o.gif

    Aushilfe @ Nov. 20 2008,20:14)]Read my post again, please. It was just a hint and the suggestion for those who are willing to cooperate with you guys to get in touch with you, so it doesnt end up in a one way taking the stuff of others thingy..... No discussion, no offense. Like i said, i respect your pov.

    Yeah sorry about that one m8. I kinda over reacted it seems.  goodnight.gif

    Hard day at work, problems at home. We all been there one time or another.  icon_rolleyes.gif  Yeah no offence taken, i edited my post to get rid of some of my self inflicted shame. sad_o.gif

    We do have cooperation with others already to some extent. Off course if people have questions about stuff they can ask.

    As for now, the current stuff will still not make a public free usable status though wink_o.gif  Knowledge between addon makers and cooperation is a key to better addons and skill naturally.  banghead.gif

    Realy a nice island and I saw that you had the same idea like me getting ´"water" in the ricefields. Just in my case it was only an idea until now I discussed with several people. I would suggest, that you will make the water more brown.

    Will the plants be a single pbo and can other mods use them aswell on their islands? Would save me a lot of work wink_o.gif

    Yes the water will be brown, we discussed that within the mod already.

    About the vegetation. Probably not right away as we spend a looot of time making it and perfecting it. I mean, it took us more then a year now to get where we are with the development of the mod and the jungle environment in ArmA, with several people working on it. Plus we find it very annoying when other people ask everything for free when something is done they wanted and thought about and didn't make themselfs and other people spend a hell of a lot of their free time making it. You get the point why we get itchy when someone asks about it...

    So no, we will not be giving out the vegetation for everyone to use right now. No permissions given yet. At least not during this release. No X-mas free gifts for people to fiddle with as they please this year  nener.gif

    Doesn't mean you cannot ask, it never hurts to ask. smile_o.gif

    Don't worry to much Andre, the island is still large enough. It's just not laaaaaaaarge large  biggrin_o.gif

    It was taking to much time for the island to be ready so we napalmed it to a smaller piece so we can bring you, the people that will run around the place like mindless goons and get shot all over the place by mister Charles, a Vietnam mod asap. The island will probably be rebuild at a further stage of the mod and released as it should have been, but for now the plan is to keep it smaller for the first release.

    Hope that gives ya some relief  smile_o.gif

    I'd go with willybeef on this one.

    I had problems with my router and ofp connections as well. Although my router was not wireless, as soon as i removed it from in between the internet connection cable it went all smooth as cutting with a hot knife through butter. In other words, problem was solved. I had the same problems you describe Legoless, yellow boxes a lot of time and red's from time to time. Only way to stay connected on a red box, was run to the connection cable of the main IP's router and unplug/re-plug it fast enough to get my connection back again and stay connected. I seriously ran a marathon alltogether so far i think  tounge2.gif

    Try if you can with a wired connection without a router in between if you can to see if that fixes the problem. I'm pretty sure it's the router. Lotsa dribble drabble bla blah router...  biggrin_o.gif

    Hawkins did an outstanding job working with Warrior X to supercharge the Unsung Mod that X worked so hard on.

    Wooooh?!!!!  crazy_o.gif  Let's get this straight before the rest of the Unsung guys send me unarmed up the hill to attack a VC mg nest!  goodnight.gif

    I was/am a mission maker mostly within Unsung. There's a entire team of modders behind Unsung. Just look at the site: Squad page Unsung site (click me)

    So it's not only me  rofl.gif  And with that said eurm...yah Hawkins is the only person responsable for Jungle Fever! The rest of us kinda euhm...took a ride on his glory....  biggrin_o.gif  Just read the JF readme and you'll get it all haha.  band.gif

    Well shoot... seems i haven't got that file anymore. Sorry Sudayev, couldn't find it anymore. So if Zuku1 as it still maybe he could post it for you.

    @ Zuku1

    Well friday is a no go for me, saturday is a maybe, sunday is also a maybe. Will know more once the weekend is happening. Just keep an eye on teh forums as you said wink_o.gif

  19. Posted

    Yeah okay. Give me some time, as the file is on my old PC which is no longer connected to the net. Will try to get it uploaded tomorrow m8.

    And about other SP mission for JF, they are in the pack or in campaigns for JF. afaik, that little mission was the only one to be released seperately. smile_o.gif

    I need link to mission made by WarriorX. Cant remeber name but  that was a small coop (or single:/) on Haw_Delta island. Originally posted somewhere around here.

    Thanks in advance!

    ...geeehh.... so what was the mission about...? huh.gif

    *listst through heaps of missions made so far*

    You sure it isn't in the mission pack of JF? Well some info on what the mission was about could be useful while searching and finding it biggrin_o.gif

    But yes, I took the time for my exams and the subsequent celebrations because I passed them with better marks than most of my class. Enough to make people gasp. Ha! Cunts.

    Well good to hear that buddy! You sure kept it quiet that you passed them  biggrin_o.gif  Congratulations m8!

    Nice to hear you got some help with your Mod as well. Eager to see what you coocked up in the sands. It's probably something good as the sands are hot, and the work you made so far is smoking! Get it i made a joke. Smoking/hot... burning sands....no  huh.gif  Never mind, it's the boredom from work  wink_o.gif

    Well some internal shots of VC, but nothing we want to show outside yet  biggrin_o.gif We will most likely show people what will be in our first release before it actually is released. Sorta along the lines of our Demo II for OFP. So you will most likely see them somewhere in the future.

    Car wars in 'Nam... nahhh..wait M48's and some PT76's going at it through the red dirt of Khe Sanh... Naaaaah wouldn't work!  rofl.gif
