Cool. Thanks TY. :)

Vilas: I really think you should open separate threads for your addons. At least P'85 should get it's own thread. This starts to become very confusing. For example, If people report a bug 'with the T-64', no one knows if he means the one in your eastern vehicle pack or the one in P'85... Just an idea. D.

You can put all files in one folder. The units indeed only need the config. But without weapons, they would be quite useless... That's why you need all 4 files. Cheers, D.

Thank you :) on Bushwars conflict mod (BWC): It's not too easy to get in touch with ObmaR, it seems... Last time I had contact was ~ a month ago. He hasn't replied since. I hope he is still active or at least plans to become active again, because his stuff is excellent. The Alouettes for example are some of the best helicopters out there. The units, weapons and mortars are great too. I have not yet seen any pics of any map project - maybe I missed them. An other African map would be great! BWC is the prime reason why I'd rather expand the mod to the northwest, because Namibia, Rhodesia etc. would be covered by a possible BWC release for ArmA2. But I guess you would not be too disappointed to see Belgian Paratroopers in Congo :) Cheers, D.

Have you checked the class ShellBase as well? Maybe p85_SB115mm inherits effects from ShellBase. D.

Well, that would be a bit off... But maybe one could expand the theme to Guinea-Bissau, where the PAIGC fought for independence against the Portuguese. Or to Zaire/Congo, as this conflict spread to Angola several times... There are indeed many possibilities! You are welcome :) thanks for the mirror! I'll update the OP at once... EDIT: done!

you are welcome! and: indeed you should :) Good idea. Some MERCS would fit in very well.

I just released a new warfare mission using my DIH Africa units for Isla Duala. Get it HERE. D. --- I think these units are not 'official' and I don't think that the 'proper' Afrenians will require ACE.

Time for another update: DIH Africa v1.2 has been released! some pics showing the new Portugues army (click to enlarge): Left: SA 330 Puma, Portuguese soldiers and an MAN truck Right: some more soldiers, a Cadillac Gage Commando V-150, a V-100 and a Mutts car. The screen shots are from the new warfare mission featuring DIH Africa on Isla Duala. See Opening Post for details and download link. Enjoy!

lol. You know there is this pink 'Hello Kitty' M4 around? :) (at Armaholic)

There are just no suitable models in ArmA2. For example, I can't use any models with body armour, because they just wouldn't fit. I also can't reskin any P'85 units without proper permission. On your Mi8 problem: that's easy. I'll send you a PM. D.

@failtolawl: These would be nice additions indeed... But I only do reskins and I'm running out of suitable models - but if someone would lend me a hand...? @nikita320106 Yes, they are ready. Together with many enhancements for both MPLA and UNITA and a three sided warfare mission on Isla Duala. However, some 'issues' prevent me from releasing the stuff right now. D. --- EDIT: Here's another teaser pic, showing Portuguese soldiers on Isla Duala in the new warfare mission (click to enlarge): The MAN is a quite nice stand in for the French trucks (Berliet) the Portuguese used in Angola. Here's a pic of an original Berliet:

Thanks for the mirrors! :)

Aelin: open it with any text editor (MS editor, Wordpad, Word, Open Office, whatever. it's a plain text file).

Aelin, take a look here: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Crash_Files Maybe this can help you find the ArmA2.rpt on your computer. D.

@vilas 1) Ok, I thought it would be something like that... I guess I could write a little script that lets you use all these ammo types with any RPG7-x launcher. 2) Interesting. Thanks for the link! Maybe I'll do some Hungarian or Romanian reskins when I have the time... D.

May I throw two questions in here too? :) @Vilas: 1) In P'85, there are RPG7V, RPG7D, RPG7D_PSO and RPG7V_PSO launchers, and all of them use magazines that are unique to them. So, you can not use a grenade from the RPG7V with an RPG7V_PSO for example. Is it like that in reality? Or is that due to some ArmA2 engine limitations? 2) Are there any other Warsaw Pact countries that use the same uniforms and helmets as one of the Warsaw Pact factions already in P'85? In that case, someone could do a quick reskin and add some more factions (Hungary? Romania?). D.

@Enad: 'CIV' and 'CIV_RU' are the civilian factions. 'CIV' = Chernarussian Civilians, 'CIV_RU' = ethnic Russian civilians. I guess it's pretty straightforward to add new civilian factions to the list. D.

I'm quite sure you are not allowed to have spaces in your addon folder names. Try '@RusWeap/addons/vilas_aks' instead. No. Your problem can't be related to Project '85 at all. -------- Indeed, a replacement config would be great! D.

@Aelin: depends on your settings and your operating system. usually something like C:\users\[your username]\AppData\Local\ArmA 2\arma2.rpt The 'AppData' folder is hidden by default.

Sounds like FADE. Has nothing to do with P'85 at all. Are you sure you have a legal copy of ArmA 2?

Well, you should ask him of course, but as it's rather an addition to his work, or an expansion, I don't see why he should oppose.

Great, so you have managed to get them working? Would you mind sharing your work with us?

Great! :)

There are some AVP marines and an APC available... here. No Predators, however. But I think I saw an Alien somewhere...
