  1. Anyways, you won't necessarily have to make an A model to make a "domeless" version, in A-stan you can see D models without the radar dome (for obvious reasons).

    Well it seems like an obvious reasons, however it seems to be a trend only with American Apache crews. The British AAC Squadrons that fly Apaches in Helmand have kept the Longbow Radar because it can be very useful when flying through the mountainous terrain of Afghanistan, as it is used to map out the terrain ahead. This makes flying through the mountains substantially easier and at night it is probably the biggest advantage.

    Anyway, enough of me derailing the thread to explain tit-tat details of the Longbow Radar's use.

    The model looks great and I cannot wait to see a better model than BIS, which great as it is, does have some minor flaws as you have pointed out. Keep up the great work!


  2. Would anyone fancy a nice small island for simple PvP or Coop missions? I could throw together something similiar to Yanutha A1 island:

    - 2 airfields (SW/NE)

    - couple of towns (larger than in Yantuha)

    - nice hilly terrain with a lot of bumps for cover

    There would be three versions: jungle, euro and desert. ;)

    I would IceBreaker but I think if it was specifically desgined with missions in mind on a small scale then the terrain would have to reflect it with there being ways for people to exploit the terrain to a tactical advantage. Might be challenging in terms of planning, but I'm sure you are up to it IceBreaker.

    Whatever you do I'm sure it will be fantastic.


  3. BFA means Blank Firing Attachment if I'm not mistaken, so they only fire blank rounds which with a BFA on will emit barely any shrapnel at all. I think they were included for training purposes, so teams and communities could go through firing drills without live rounds.

    Hope that helps.


  4. @Jon: I havn't had any problems with this island, and you are correct it is the SFOD mod which does this to islands. A friend of mine could only play isla duala and all his maps just crashed his games. So he stripped his folders of all addons and then tested them one by one, turns out that SFOD somehow messes with islands.

    Back on topic. Love this map, have already made several missions with it!
