    Also, it's exceedingly unlikely that there'd ever be an NIA arms " SRSS Bulldog". That would require a whole new model and animation set, for what is basically a hacked up M14 range toy. It's a disproportionate amount of effort for what would amount to a gimmick gun.

    Please don't request things, that's not how NIA works.

    We're looking into it, thanks. Attention all, this is how you bug report.

    My "job" as it is basically consists of answering questions on the forum and any PMs I get about commissions or permissions. In other words, it's really not a "job". Navarro, the guy who does our sounds, has a "job". I just help Toadie out with this side of things cus he's bad at checking the forums regularly and answering PMs promptly, and because I enjoy it. If NIA was a large team like RHS, there'd be literally nothing for me to do. If Toadie was better at checking his inbox, there'd be nothing for me to do. My "contribution" to the actual mod is a decent chunk of the Patreon money, the (discounted) cost of the SIGs you're all playing with and the (discounted) cost of the REDACTED carbine that's currently in the pipeline. But throwing money at something isn't equal to actually working on it. I ever claimed it was. People trying to inject tone into Forum posts does make me laugh though. It's a text based medium. The only basis anyone has for claiming one person is "unfazable", while I apparently sit sniffing Aloe vera the minute someone looks at me funny, is their own projected emotions. If someone has an issue with my role, they're free to ignore me, but don't ask questions and then complain about my tone. Now, I have to issue a correction to something another poster said. It's not a filesize issue. We did give one bloke permission to upload an all-in-one for the private use of him and his group, because he asked politely instead of stealing it, and it did work. The reason we don't have an official version is simple, Toadie is Australian, that means his internet is awful. And uploading to steam workshop is temperamental, in that if there's even the smallest interruption to an upload, it dumps the whole thing as corrupted. Large file and bad net means that it's guaranteed to happen, meaning that uploading an All-in-one to workshop and keeping it updated would be an onerous task. Now if there was a compelling reason to do so perhaps we could duct tape some solution together. But "Bohemia's software sucks" isn't a compelling reason. Personal hot take, Bohemia would probably fix stuff faster if we all stopped accepting "modders will fix it" as an excuse. The ones marked (MTK) have NATO scope rails.

    Am I a Bohemia Interactive Employee? No, so go bother them about their launcher being buggy, it's nothing to do with us. We've explained over and over again why there's no All-in-One on Steam. Bitesrad, I'll bring the bipod request up with Toadie again.

    There's this amazing thing steam has, called "collections".

    From what I've read, the Arma way was the "correct way" for years, then became the "wrong" way to do it later. A lot of this stuff is just a matter of what's popular at the time.

    To the NSA80, no. And to the G36A2 optic setup, impossible in Arma 3's engine.

    No, we have better more realistic sound.

    As far as I know, it's not. It's partially animations, and partly that the STANAG mag well on the SAW is almost never used due to reliability issues (the SAW is already notoriously unreliable, and using magazines compounds that).

    Toadie will look at it, but we're past hotfix period. Might be better to bug ACE about it.

    It's okay, you just soak it in garbage for 24 hours and the rod portion regrows. :P

    Thanks, I'll pass that on to Toadie.

    Myself, then I'll bring it to Toadie and come back to you with an answer.

    It's an NIA arms thing, but there's a waiting list, and it's not cheap. If you want to support the project, patreon is probably better. The SIG pistols are something I commissioned.

    Arma's lighting engine messes with shading, so it's basically a matter of extensive tweaking until it's at a point where the testers can say "eh, close enough".

    Ohh, what might this be? Patreon's early release dropping in the next 48.

    Yeah, I passed it on to Toadie for flagging.

    Way more goes into it then just a "couple of models". The WW2 weapons on the list got *voted* that high. World War 2 is a rather popular subject among gamers, and of course some peeps in the US and elsewhere (because many countries treat those WWII bolt actions the same as hunting rifles, legally speaking) are interested in Mosins, K98's and SMLE's because they own one. I respect that even if my preferences run strictly modern.

    Early work has already started somewhat on my HK 416's, In addition Toadie is working through a set of FN 30-11's. And then there's the usual list items. The bad news I have for you is that you can't put down a "little cash" anymore, nowadays it's going to be a lot of cash from anyone looking to buy stuff, because of the work involved.

    Toadie's hands are kind of full making actual guns rather then frankengun mash ups.

    Nope, do keep in mind that we're in the middle of a sound overhaul right now, and the two packs you're currently using are two of the oldest ones in the collection. And "worse" is entirely relative when it comes to sounds.

    You were read, understood, and so on. As Nation Independent Arsenal, we're not actually bound to have stuff set up the way the Germans have it. Which reminded me that I should probably send you that thing I was meant to send you a month ago, sorry about that.

    You can install different bolt weights to change the rate of fire. The high rates of fire everyone likes to quote are theoretical maximums. In the case of the MG42, for anti-air use. Those high rates of fire are super impractical for GPMG use.
