-Ash-

Rather than continually making new topics, I thought I'd create this and post any new updates that we have to offer.. First of all.. New Beta SAS units complete with new Colt Commando (newly added second magazine taped to existing for fast reloading. a favoured trick used by the SAS) Colt Commando Screenshot from Pebble Island airfield attack by SAS (Note, Pucara in background...) Sea King:

Seems so mate..

Hehheh.. That certain Para and the wanted scouser poster (myself) was an idea done around 2 years ago I think.. That pink Gazelle was thought up around 4 years ago as well if I recall.. Amazing when you think about it .. Bam did the textures on that bin from an old picture I found on google.. It had to be an old style can of lager and all I could think of was Skol Skol Skol Skol

Anyone noticed the wanted poster yet? That's me..

Very very proud of you guys.. Thank you all so much for making the dream I had 5 years ago finally come true.. Respect to CBFASI for carrying it on when I could no longer..

That's exactly what happens to me.. Crap textures, good textures then suddenly soldiers will turn into a massive polygon as though someone has put a model into O2 and extruded absolutely every vertex about 100 feet outwards...

It's simply an awful awful campaign.. The last mission is so damn confusing it's unreal.. I had the same thing.. Check out the refugee camp.. Why? It's already been done!! I'm currently stuck at the moment with a WAIT command as I teamswitched 'to see the other aspect of the battle' God help anyone new to this fine community.. They'll disappear without a trace very quickly.. Not everyone wants to fiddle around making new units/textures/missions.. When you go and buy a game you expect it to be playable.. It would probably have been better off releasing as sandbox kind of game instead of having a totally diabolical and bugged to death campaign.

Funnily enough I've been having very peculiar problems of late.. Typical things happen such as: Trees become flat objects Stryker model becomes a square with diamond shaped wheels, then back to hi res model, then back to square/diamonds. Flying sometimes in a Cobra causes a massive stutter for about 10 seconds then I know I'm dead. During this the gunners head becomes a diamond squashed thing.. Very bizarre.. Running Athlon 64 3500XP with Geforce 6800GT 256mb PCI-E with latest drivers...

Ok.. So you beat off the attack on the base then apparently drive a truck to pick up beta squadron from the airfield.. Drive the truck to the base.. They all run off.. You drive back to the base from which you came from.. Mission end? I could have made that mission in about 2 mins.. For this bugged as hell mission to be actually includd in the 'campaign' is beyond belief....

Agreed. Very let down by the campaign.. It's well outclassed by a 5 year old ofp campaign which is crazy...

Hey Deano, aint seen you in a long time mate! Hmm when's 1.50 out then?

This is bloody ridiculous.. I can't even get to the first waypoint because of all the antics of the strykers moving up past the burning tanks, then back gain, then staying put for a coupel of minutes, then back again to the burning tanks, then back to the start.. Jesus did BIS even beta test any of these maps?? Never known anything so shoddy in all my life and I'm very surprised given all the far superior user made missions around.. Not a good welcome to a non ofp player I tell you... Jesus..

Yeah what's the situation with those damn howitzers? It's like the mission was knocked up in 5 minutes without any due care or attention.. They are absolutely impossible to use without hitting the sandbag wall and blowing yourself up..

I just got to the eastern side by a large overhanging rock, shot the officer on the balcony, then the mg soldiers on the roof.. Then just sniped everyone around the hotel.. Helicopter flew off and crashed into the rock that I was hiding by.. I'd just moved thankfully... Then made my escape up the hill to end the mission.. Hardest part of the mission is the crack Ak-74 snipers that are way over the top in skill ..

South Korea sold it's soul (and most probably something else) for having their moments last time (the whole Italy and Spain population can confirm). Klavan I thought you said 'South Korea sold its seoul! Anyway.. England for me, but I have a sneaky feeling Spain are gonna do well for some reason...

Christ.. Who said we were dead? Argentine Unimog 416 truck loading aboard C-130 after Operation Rosario successful:

Are they a bit blurry Huey?

Photoshop?

Our original intention was always to release in one big download but the amount of people getting worried about the size of it was offputting. We had a new sense of direction a few months ago stating that we would be releasing in chapters instead.. A lot of chapters I've just reknewed the flashpoint1982.co.uk domain name, I think thats proof alone that we aint dead..

Yeah I went there last year as I'm from the Liverpool side.. I actually wanted to get some reference pics of Onyx, some nice closeups of an Oerlikon onboard Plymouth and also some angles of the Westland Wasp that she carries... Its a superb place and it's a bloody shame about the funding etc.. The little Falklands war musem onboard Plymouth is rather nice as well.. The ship on fire you're thinking about was Sir Galahad an LSL that was hit by 2 Argentine Skyhawks.. It was later sunk as a memorial.

Isn't that U534 at Birkenhead? They even have HMS Plymouth there (when Argentina surrendered South Georgia to the UK during the Falklands War) Only up the road from me

Please don't say it's for a Married with Children mod? Seriously though it's fairly easy to make one yourself.. Have a look at this

CWC was based in 1985 when effectively the USSR was still the biggest threat to the west..

Amen even though I'm a day late.
