Although i haven't tried the new update due to ongoing hardware problems....... :o:......here are a few observations on the feedback for v0.1.2 The new "running walkers" seem to be a hot topic....personally as a child of the 70's my preference will always be for George Romero style "walking zombies", so i'm kinda sad that they now "run", i liked the mix of walking and running zombies from previous versions. Maybe a balance could be struck.....bring back the "walkers" but give them a much higher damage threshold,....In parallel to this the "runners" could have a lower damage threshold. While we are on the subject of zombie behaviours could i remind you of the phenomenon i found when using DSS zombies and TPW_Fall mod, It's worth bearing in mind Ravage and DSS both use Teacups animations.......

Hey Haleks, Ravage is already maturing nicely...the next update is looking tremendous.... I just always feel obliged to say "thank you" everytime i post here, just for releasing this boundless project. Your modules are already producing quality work elsewhere. http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=29657

There is absolutely NOTHING on offer here that i dislike.....very much looking forward to this project....best of luck Romzet.

Make sure you enable tutorial hints in your Arma 3 settings menu......it will tell you all you need to know while playing "Ravage"

Hi Gunter, The eclectic mix of features you have compiled for the IFA3WarMod is just superb....are there still plans to bring a version of this mod over to A3?

Hi Gunter, As this is an essential part of my IFA3 experience now, are there any plans to make an A3WarMod? ........would love to see this eclectic bunch of features be a standalone mod for vanilla A3? edit.....Doh! just remembered there's an official thread for your WIP A3WarMod, will repost in relevant thread.

Good suggestion......but maybe asking for this request in the MCC thread would be more beneficial. ;)

Many thanks for releasing this, good job Arthyc. ;)

Gimme a second while i re-attach my jaw..........sublime detail Silola.

Okay...what part of "don't make me too envious" do you not understand. :P

My GPU has just decided it's had enough of this life..... :computer: I guess i gotta watch from the sidelines for the time being.....don't make me too envious Guys. :k:

Had an awesome night with Ravage.....weather was particularly spectacular......

Hi haleks, regarding the added support for RHS Escalation mod.....will Ravage also recognize mistyronin's ION Services Inc. config addon. Again, thanks for releasing Ravage, it's a pretty inspired piece of work.....i liken it to a great book.....Ravage is the novel....the Modules are the novellas.

Bearing in mind the terrain has been devastated by disease and has pockets of radiation everywhere.....i'll have my rabbit "well done" thanks....and we'll need some water purification tablets to go....... There should be a real risk to "living of the land" in Ravage.......

Congratulations to everyone on the CUP team......really appreciate all the time and commitment so we can all play with these cool "old" toys again in A3.

That's where Bad Benson's Bad Boy comes into play...... ;)

.....there's no shame in that, the Mod is beautifully brutal in that regard.........I feel it.........Heck, we all feel it..... You could always lay down a few modules in the editor and tailor an experience that suits your playstyle. Edit. Ya beat me to it cosmic :P

This plus Ravage is f*****g perfect......Thank you.

Having much fun with the Mod.....running all the supported mods except ACE.....much smoother performance than v1.0.0.......no issues after 2 hours play.....except for wearing out the edge of my seat....... As generous as the Module suite is........would sure love to see an Ambient Lightning module somewhere down the line.....similar to Shpook's script...... Keep doing what you are doing Haleks... The strength of both Mod and Modules on offer here is frightening....... :clap: Edit. A little gameplay created with Ravage modules and Shpook's Lightning script....

Many thanks for this new version......i hope it's as brutal as v0.1.0

Hi Folks, with kind permission from tpw, here is a revised TPW_AIR script which will spawn ambient flybys of aircraft only from the Iron Front mod. To customize which aircraft you would like to spawn just change the specific classname in line 34 of the script, currently all Iron Front aircraft classnames are included. Enjoy. /* TPW AIR - Spawn ambient flybys of helicopters and aircraft Author: tpw Date: 20140611 Version: 1.28 Requires: CBA A3 Compatibility: SP, MP client Disclaimer: Feel free to use and modify this code, on the proviso that you post back changes and improvements so that everyone can benefit from them, and acknowledge the original author (tpw) in any derivative works.

Below is the classname of the Li-2 which can also be added to line 34 of the TPW_AIR script. "LIB_Li2"

Works a treat, thanks for the information...... With your permission could i share the revised TPW_AIR script in the Iron Front in Arma 3 forum thread, i'm sure mission-makers would appreciate this.

There is a brief description of what each module does if you click on the "SHOW INFO" button.

You'll need to throw Gunter a bigger bone to chew on other than offering up those scraps..... :P

Very nice update.....can't wait to try out those new vault animations. Thanks for all the hard work Ranwer. ;)
