Project 82 The Falklands/Malvinas war mod Work In Progress - Pics
dimitri_harkov replied to cimalex's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: DISCUSSION
If you send me the layer mask file and the island config(s), I can have a look. Although... Jakerod will be more than capable of fixing this IMO. Cheers & Keep it up! -

Awesome stuff there. Thank you very much! -
The Unsung Vietnam War Mod 2.5 Released
dimitri_harkov replied to sgt_savage's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
I'm sorry, I couldn't find the old scripts. They would have been heavily dependent on RHS stuff anyway. But I mashed together a quick and dirty proof of concept. It concentrates on the range issue mostly. I have a loop based on the position of a 'radar vehicle' that checks for air vehicles within the chosen 'radar range'. If there is one, he starts a seperate loop for one of the SAM launchers: This loop: 1- reveals the target to the SAM (reveal command) 2- and commands the gunner to aim at the target (commandTarget command) 3- wait for a reasonable period (so the SAM can actually point at the target) until... 4- you force the SAM to shoot at the target (fireAtTarget command) This most simple approach works pretty well. You just have to make sure that the SAMs are not ordered to shoot faster than they can reload. It's hard to see that it REALLY makes a difference with the Tunguska, but the KRUG usually kills targets 25+ km (!) away. The radar loop stops once the radar is destroyed. If that happens, you can either remove the SAMs' magazines as eggbeast proposed. Or you can have a seperate loop that checks if fired rockets still have a lock. If not, replace the rockets with a new one on the same spot where they are at the moment. They replacement will spawn without any kind of target info and will just keep flying straight, most probably hitting nothing (EDIT: If I remember correctly, this was connected to an 'IncomingMissile' EH in the original script, to make it a bit easier). I'd also recommend making the SAM units as 'blind' as possible, making it difficult for them to acquire targets on their own. Cheers, D. -

I scripted a similar feature for the 2K11 Krug years back. I solved the range issue by 'revealing' all suitable targets to the launchers as long as the radar unit was active. Worked like a charm back then, though I haven't checked those scripts since. Nice additions, looking forward to the next update :) Cheers, D. -

Warhammer 40k Total Conversion mod for ARMA 3
dimitri_harkov replied to Xi0s's topic in ARMA 3 - ADDONS & MODS: DISCUSSION
That sounds great! Though I hope you focus on a small pack (2 man-sized races, 1 small map) first to prove the concept and get more people to join the team. I also like the PvP focus. Good luck with this & cheers, D. -

Invasion 1944 v2.6 (CO)

No, I meant the first aid module that came with ArmA2 in 2009. I have no experience with the I44 healing module. -

dimitri_harkov replied to W0lle's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
Nice, keep it coming! :) I know it's probably a bit off topic, but could you maybe share your solution? I have this on one of the models I'm using too. Cheers, D. -
Invasion 1944 v2.6 (CO)
dimitri_harkov replied to SFG's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
It's a wide shot, but have you used BIS' standard first aid module? This used to happen with that module after respawn when I used it ages ago. Cheers, D. -
Invasion 1944 v2.6 (CO)
dimitri_harkov replied to SFG's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
If you want a parachute in HIP, take one with you ;) (and don't forget the workaround for a BIS-bug for pilots & crews mentioned in the manual) btw: HIP and I44 are not compatible at all. *** Really looking forward to 2.7! :) Cheers, D. -
Hell in the Pacific 0.5 beta release
dimitri_harkov replied to Waxbutter's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
Great that you enjoy the mod :) No, there will be no more releases for ArmA 2. There had been some plans for the second sino-japanese war, but nothing has come of it (yet?). Cheers, D. -
Hell in the Pacific 0.5 beta release
dimitri_harkov replied to Waxbutter's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
Thank you SnakeTheFox for your nice comments :) As Foxy already pointed out, we had no problem with the HIP - ASR_AI combo during our tests. Indeed, I took the greatest care to ensure compatibility wherever possible, because I'm a great fan of ASR_AI too. Still, HIP as a team can not gurantee that HIP runs with any 3rd party mods, as we can not control their development. However, I just had a short firefight with ASR_AI enabled and it seems it runs as flawless as ever :) Here are my ASR_AI settings I use for most missions, maybe they are of use for you. I have turned off/tweaked some things where I was not sure if they might cause trouble: Cheers, D. -

We had yet another event with this great mod. The airstrike at the end is definitly a highlight :D Big thx to DaOarge for recording this video and for a ton of screenshots (you can see everything on his homepage HERE) Keep it up! Cheers, D. -

dimitri_harkov replied to sgt_savage's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
Yeah. Perhaps it is because 'manual fire' is available for Huey pilots? I guess that should be removed, unless it has some special benefit that I am not aware of at the moment. Cheers! :) -
A.C.R.E - Advanced Combat Radio Environment - 1.4 Stable - Release Thread
dimitri_harkov replied to noubernou's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
I use to call the following function to get an array of radios the unit (_u) has: private ["_u","_ret"]; _u = _this select 0; _ret = []; { if (getText(configFile >> "CfgWeapons" >> _x >> "simulation") == "ItemRadio") then {_ret = _ret + [_x];}; } forEach weapons _u; _ret You can then cycle through the returned array and remove the radio(s) using the 'removeWeapon' command. There used to be a function quite like this in ACRE, but it is/was broken, that's why I used my own ever since. Cheers, D. -

The Unsung Vietnam War Mod 2.5 Released
dimitri_harkov replied to sgt_savage's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
At least, you do not need any source files to add the airfield to Cao Bang. That's a pure config issue. I'm also pretty sure you can disable the turn out option on the M113 without an MLOD. Concerning ACE_compact: It would be great it this file would use a different key than the rest of Unsung indeed. Thx for response & Cheers, Dimitri -

Isn't that what the latest OA beta puts out on every undefined variable - so, unrelated to UNS? -

And yet one more video of our last UNS mission, this time by DaOarge. And IMHO the best of his screenshots with original comment: :) - You can see this and much more on DaOarge's Arma Site *** Great mod guys, I hope to see it it on ArmA3 too! Cheers, D. -
