  1. Hey guys,

    I just got this tool used in former Czechoslovakia for training of BMP-1/2 crew gunners. Original electronics were useless so i made my own, really simple and made it work with Arma 2 and of course Arma 3 too (demo mission is in Arma 2).

    http://s28.postimg.org/rt7s0u8nx/IMG_20150520_210257.jpg

    (display shows instructions during initial calibration)

    The handles are exactly the same like in BMPs so the "feel" is pretty cool :cool:

    Handles can be turned in both axis, the more you tilt them the faster turrets turn around in x axis, same with y axis.

    Weapons can be fired by pushing top button on right handle and toggle weapons with button on left one.

    I just made simple mission where you can choose vehicle to ride and then little raid on village starts.

    My problem no 1 now is that in reality top button on the right handle is used to fire cannon and the one on the left handle is used to fire auxillary machine gun. Target is to make separate buttons fire each weapon without the need of toggling between weapons. I will appreciate every suggestion for solution.

    TODO:

    Give to the whole device better look.

    Driver position for BMP

    Driver position for T-72

    Short video here, will come in better quality soon cuz i cant handle this recording and shooting multitasking :D


  2. Hi guys,

    about a year ago i´ve started working on extensions for controll of computer hardware (serial ports, USB devices etc...) and som system functions like writing/reading from files... that´s pretty all :D

    I believe there is more people on this forum who want to build their own, for example flight controller with gauges and switches and controlls... you know. Starting idea of this project was my tank driving controller.

    Actual content is:

    function_name ( parameters )

    FileWrite ( relative path + filename, text) - writes to file - returns string "OK" or "ERROR"

    FileRead (relative path + filename, text) - reads from file - returns content of file in string or "ERR"

    ErrLog ( log text ) - writes log in log file in Arma directory with error marking

    InfLog (log text ) - writes log in log file in Arma directory with info marking

    COMConfig ( baud rate, serial com name) - writes baud rate and name of the serial port to the COM config file in Arma directory (default 9600, COM1)

    COMWriteByte ( value ) - sends value through the serial port in range 0-255, returns "OK" or "ERROR"

    COMWriteString ( string ) - sends string through the serial port

    TODO:

    Send data through USB HID terminals

    Controll of LPT port

    So guys if you have some ideas for improvements or for some new functions please post them in this thread.

  3. Hi guys, please could somebody tell, if it is possible to call the extension with parameter containing for example state of fuel of some vehicle ?

    something like

    _params = "Arma2_GOT_Dri [AddLogInf, DATA]";

    "Arma2Net.Unmanaged" callExtension _params;

    or

    _params = "Arma2_GOT_Dri [AddLogInf," + (str (fuel _veh)) + "]";

    "Arma2Net.Unmanaged" callExtension _params;

    or something similiar except 1000 ways i tried before.

    After whole day fighting with this, i am afraid i will go sleep defeated.

    Thanks for all your help guys.


  4. Hi guys sorry for making new thread but i have try to search for

    "create vehicle with crew"

    "spawn vehicle with crew"

    "spawn tank with crew" etc...

    I am making mp mission where players must defend one city against very agressive enemy. I am spawning infantry groups in 40 seconds intervals. I havent got any problem. Two groups spawn at two different marks, script will create waypoint and they will go there.

    But when i try to spawn vehicle...

    Here is script:

    _type = _this select 0
    _mark = _this select 1
    _time = _this select 2
    #loop
    _slaGrp = createGroup EAST;
    _s1 = "SoldierECrew" createUnit [ getMarkerPos _mark, _slaGrp, " _slaGrp = this; [this] exec 'playerKillsScore60.sqs';", 1, "CORPORAL" ];
    _s1 = "SoldierECrew" createUnit [ getMarkerPos _mark, _slaGrp, "[this] exec 'playerKillsScore60.sqs';", 1, "PRIVATE" ];
    _tank = _type createVehicle (markerPos _mark)
    _s1 moveindriver _tank
    _s2 moveingunner _tank
    [_tank] exec "playerKillsScore200.sqs"
    ~1
    _s1 assignasgunner _tank
    [_s1] ordergetin TRUE
    _s2 assignasdriver _tank
    [_s2] ordergetin TRUE
    _slaGrp addWaypoint [position CityMark,80]
    ~_time + (random 30)
    goto "loop"
    exit
    

    Vehicle will be created, crew will be created, but out of vehicle, i have try moveInXXXXX assignasXXXXX but nothing is working...

    But crew start moving on waypoint.

    Please help and sorry if it is somewhere here.

    Thank you guys.

  6. Thanks guys :) I know it´s looking little plastic but i am working on it.

    EDIT:

    cdf8.jpg

    This is how it looks after editation. It´s better but not the best. But the truth is that Operation Arowhead was just 3 years after war on Chernarus. It means that chernarussian modernized army is first time in war conflict after war in their country. So their newed newed hellicopters, vehicles, etc.. shouldn´t be looking so worn. But it´s true that original model was looking too plastic.

    And this is final version of ground unit:

    Thanx guys for tip ;)


  7. Hi guys.

    I am actually working on modern units of cdf for OA. Now i´ve got few soldiers in digital desert camo and 2 hips. One in dusty desert camo and second in digital desert camo. The weapons of infantry should be like weapons used by ACR or OS SR (slovakian armed forces). It means primary weapon should be Sa vz. 58 (i am working on clear version, any camo) or G-36, antitank weapon RPG-18, RPG-7 and for AT specialist MAAWS. For sniper i want use TheSun´s AWM but i am still waiting for his answer.

    Here are some screenshots :
