I am eager to get play the full VTE mod, how much longer until its released? Is there going to be anymore maps (islands) when its released or just the existing Ida Drang map? Any Module addons such as parameters for ACM so it will spawn VTE content?

Hi Flagg, Look up the commands to disable AI, sorry I don't remember the syntax right now but its pretty simple since I use the command from time to time. Basically you are switching off their brain and they'll do nothing but die.

I think some forces that would have mass appeal would be; French - they have lots of unique vehicles to add variety German - they have lots of equipment used by other countries so it would be easy to retexture for the mod community Australian - the Aussies have been very active in the war on terrorism and have a large Arma community Canadian - same reason as the Australians China - for something completely different, asian faces, different weapons and camo, different superpower to build campaigns around Asian Guerillas - a generic guerilla army simular to Viet-Cong, Khemer Rouge, Tamil Tigers, any number of them to open the door to various hot spots world wide. Also some maps to represent African bush wars terrain, jungle (there are good community maps but an official jungle map would be nice)

I like SF/Recce troops a lot in my Arma missions some thoughts..... SF direct action Assaulters with CQB kit Recce/SF Green Op with various soft covers i.e., bush hat, wool hat (toque), bandanna, skrim scarves, mixed camo. I hope one or two of these suggestions may be considered in a future update. The JTF2 guys are well known for their unofficial dress code, the recce guys not so much

My apoligies Ohally for jumping to conclusions. There were some garbage entries in some of my mission.sqm that was causing an error. it corosponded with missions where I used the "ONS_C8A1_M203_SD" entires in. Closer examination (and some text editing) resolved the problem. sorry about that.

Hi Ohally, Thanks for the latest ONS to you and the team. in a previous post you supplied this for me; this addweapon "ONS_C8A1_M203_SD" It would appear that the weapon class names have changed because it doesn't work anymore. May I have the new name for the equivilent weapon class with the latest release?

Very cool gentlemen thank you very much.

I'm checking these posts everyday now looking forward to the latest ONS release. I offer this feedback so the ONS team knows that their hard work on the models are appreciated and anticipated by the community.

Excellent News! ---------- Post added at 03:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:42 PM ---------- Thank You Now my Recce guys are stealthy but pack a punch

I would like to see more races also. The ratio of Black soldiers to white soldiers varies depending on the part of the world you are from. I could be wrong (and if I am don't shoot me) but assume the ratio for black soldiers is higher in the America then most parts of Europe.

Thanks Ohally, I wanted a silenced C8 with 203 and with Elcan sites on a single rifle. One of the RH sets has an M4 silenced with GL and I really like using it in game except it isn't Canadian, besides I really like the way you guys did the Elcan for ARMA 2 (the green furniture on the C series is cool also).

We need a good jungle island. I haven't been able to get Lingor bets to work properly (vegitation doesn't show). A working jungle environment a must. I would also like to see African Bush island simular to the Angola region.

The ignorance about the Canadian contribution in Afganistan is appauling. The Canadians have been in a major combat role since the invasion have contributed more to the fight then anyone else except the Americans. The Britons have only recently (2006) sent in significant commitment of troops with the Para Regiment (the Brits have been heavily commited in Iraq), long before their deployment the Canadians have been in major operations in Kandihar province and have sustained plenty of casualties. It is unfortunate that the British press does not include any articles on the Canadian contribution particularly given our commitment to the Commonwealth and support for the UK in the past. In Patrick Bishop's book on 3 Para in Afganistan he makes many references to the Canadian soldiers in combat, maybe read it it is a good look at the war from the UK point of view.

Hey guys, I've been playing with various versions of ONS troops since OFP days. I have to say though that waiting this long for your ARMA 2 version has gotten tiresome. I understand the desire to perfect the release but please provide more content as you go. Having said that I do have a small wishlist if I may; C8SFW with silencer, 203gl & Elcan sites Recce troops with Bush Hats (maybe already inculded in next release) List of weapon names and ammo
