    Thank you for another great update, RHS team. Greatly appreciated :)

    African Factions for CUP

    orcinus replied to autigergrad's topic in ARMA 3 - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE

    Excellent release, thank you :) @thesnypr: get hold of Gienkov's brilliant DAC Toolbox - easily generate DAC-style lists for units, wheeled veicles, tracked vehicles, & choppers (or/and selected subsets). I never do it any other way - especially with large mods like CUP, RHS, & UNSUNG. Statics, boats & jets you have to do yourself - easiest way is to place the units/items you want, save the mission unbinarised, then open it in notepad++.

    That is outstanding, it looks just like a lane near Tonle Sap. Did you base it on an actual photograph?

    Duh! Quite right, must have had a brainfart.

    [Release] Shk_Pos_Functions

    orcinus replied to celludriel's topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING

    Thanks for sharing this. Are you planning to update any other of Shko's scripts (especially AISSP)?
  6. orcinus
    Ah, OK thanks for the info. Strange that I never saw that on the Unsung maps, though I've played very, very little over the last couple of years.
  7. orcinus
    Hah! Doesn't happen on the Usung maps that I've ever seen, nor did it happen on Trung Si before today's update. Ofc because it's a Steam d/l I can't go back & check.

    Thanks, Bludski. One oddness, however. In this version, a short burst of M240 7.62 non-tracer sets light to the thatched huts pretty reliably. Bit unlikely, especially in the rainy season :)

    Excellent work, mate. Just had a stroll round the latest update, had me thinking about holidays ;) Found another source of photos; the University of North Carolina has a teacher-support project called "Learn NC". Illustrated articles on Vietnam, Cambodia past & present. Lots of images, downloadable in different resolutions for the most part. Here's a ruined tower built by the Chams. Modern era buildings as well. Some great pics of rural thatched houses in Vietnam & Cambodia. Search the main site for country names, or for Margery H Freeman (photographer, results will get you her homepage with links to may photos) & Lorraine Aragon (text).

    You're very welcome. I intend to use (attempt to, at least :) those as rough templates for houses round the temple I want to make. Which reminds me, I haven't uploaded any photos yet.... Great screenshot :) The rivers generally & Tonle Sap especially are anything but crystal clear. In fact I would never swim in Tonle Sap (apart from anything else, the floating villagers have, erm, 'outdoor' plumbing... Thanks for the update. Had a wander round the map shortly before seeing this (Steam updating as I type) and it is really outstanding. Tramping through the jungle I had a big fat grin on my face. Gonna put a simple AISSP mission on it to see how the AI cope. One issue I did notice is that some of the smaller bunkers have a floor that is too low - you can't fire out properly. One thing that will AIUI missing in A3 SEA maps are crocs - I think I read that Charon won't be updating the mod he made for A2/CO which is a real shame. Cheers!

    Rural houses still haven't changed much still, at least in the area round Siem Reap and Tonle Sap. A tin roof instead of thatch is fairly common, I guess it depends on the families income / tolerance for the noise during the rainy season especially. You're in luck, Bludski, because there is an excellent set of rural house photos on Wikipedia - complete with some great interior shots in one of the galleries. And Vietnamese rural houses don't look much different from outside at least - I never went inside one. There are lots of photos on the Internet of the famous floating village Kompong Khleang, they show one of the common characteristics of Cambodian rural houses - stilts. Much of Cambodia is flood plain; Tonle Sap water level changes by 8 or 9 metres!

    accessing all units in an array

    orcinus replied to BlacKnightBK's topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING

    But in my experience, being a crap coder, until someone has learned by heart the >2000 pages referenced , they should pay at least as much attention to the pages: Scripting Commands by Functionality - which I am finding very useful - and Functions by Functionality - because there one can find ready-made solutions for a great variety of tasks.

    3den Enhanced

    orcinus replied to R3vo's topic in ARMA 3 - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE

    @R3vo: thank you for your continuued work on this very useful addon; very much appreciated :) IIRC there's a ticket about that on the bugtracker; something might happen if enough people upvote it.

    Zee Identity Pack

    orcinus replied to zeealex's topic in ARMA 3 - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE

    Really well done, Zeealex :) The lack of female characters in vanilla A3 was a glaring deficiency. Yet another case of 'modders unto the breach'!

    Very pretty, thank you makhno! If it isn't a huge task (I genuinely have no idea) a snow version would be cool <cough>. As other have noted, lots of scope for WWII scenarios and a Battle of the Bulge campaign could be a lot of fun.
  16. orcinus
    Great updates :) Thank you, CUP & CWA teams!
  17. orcinus
    Wonderful pictures, bludski. Makes me quail from hubris at thinking I could make a decent jungle map on the basis of my zero experience/knowledge... but the wtf? - I want this. I'll pm you witha link for some of my photos of Khmer temples. In the interim, please continue to amaze with your skill and creativity :)
  18. orcinus
    Unfortunately it did not make a difference. Script errors still show up. Peculiar since, as one would expect, a shortcut made from the launcher does not have "-showScriptErrors"; i.e. it seems unlikely that the launcher is adding that parameter. Hmm, I think I had better check that the latest stable does have it off by default still.
  19. orcinus
    Great! Thank you both very much :) Edit: Works very well. Excellent & useful script, thank you very much for sharing this :)

    RHS Escalation (AFRF and USAF)

    orcinus replied to soul_assassin's topic in ARMA 3 - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE

    Woo, go for it/it :) Believe him, morons. These people have spent, and continue to spend, hours of unpaid time and professional level expertise, skill, and creativity to GIVE this community outstanding content. Even if you are too narcicisstic to show them some gratitude, show them respect. Or 'go forth and multiply' .
  21. orcinus
    Very pretty :) I wholeheartedly approve of your intention to offer this lovely content as standalone, as well as integrated into the brilliant Unsung mod. The more that assets can be mixed and matched, the better IMHO. Making a good, large terrain seems to me (as someone looking at venturing into this arena with considerable trepidation) such a great investment of intellectual effort and time that the product of such endeavours should be distributed as widely as possible. Kudos, Bludski :)
  22. orcinus
    +1 The tank models are beautiful :) ... totally in keeping with what promises to be an outstanding mod. Kudos to your team, and I look forward to great fun blowing it all up whenever. P:

    If you mean the link in the first post, it gets a page that says: " 410 Gone nginx " which I guess means the file is, erm, gone.
  24. orcinus
    No problems there, A3 launches fine, all selected mods load, etc. It's just annoying that I can't turn off script errors. If I use command line launch, script errors don't show unless I add the -showScriptErrors parameter. I'm actually downloading an update at this very moment - 1.5.84 - so I'll see if that has the same issue & get back to you. Cheers!
