    [WIP] Terrain - Woe Betide, UK

    It looks quite convincing as a UK terrain already! Will there be any military bases or airfields?

    ARMA 3 Addon Request Thread

    As a pilot I would love to have an OCP US Army Aircrew Combat Uniform (A2CU) in-game. Although I personally don't care for UCP as a camouflage pattern, there are variations of the A2CU in UCP as well, which might be appealing to some.
  3. I know that you can mute and unmute spectators after the spectator mode has been initialized, but is it somehow possible to have spectators muted by default?
  4. Sitting door gunners is the tried and true ArmA method, so I would personally not have a problem with that. Though I am having trouble wrapping my head around how a standing Black Hawk door gunner would look in ArmA. Would it be something like this, or would the gunner be standing inside the compartment?
  5. It's been a while since I've done faction and vehicle configs, but I think you are looking for the typicalCargo entry.
  6. The teasers for this terrain were nothing short of amazing, so I am quite sad to hear the news, but I completely understand your sentiment. I have never attempted any large projects, but I've dabbled in various aspects of ArmA modding long enough to know how pointless it can feel when you don't reach the results you've been working towards. The jungles of Cambodia are more than satisfying right now, though, and by the sounds of your secret project I might have to give Low Level Hell another read ;)
  7. As far as I know the cargo compartment on the DAP in real life is occupied by ammunition for the miniguns and chain gun, so it wouldn't carry any passengers. Maybe you were talking about the CUP UH-60s, unless there are transport variant MH-60s in CUP as well?

    I will echo what others have already said: thank you for making this fantastic terrain! I made a small album of screenshots I took while exploring, highlighting some of the areas and terrain features I found interesting:
  9. It's been almost two years, and I never suceeded in creating a moveable external camera view for the gunners, so there isn't much of a script to talk about in the first place. Besides, I'm still not very well-versed with scripting, so someone else could probably make a much better version.
  10. Hello! I'm doing a script for door gunners to "lean out" of the helicopter to check rotor clearance and such in first person. I've managed to get a very basic version working, but I'm having one issues. I'm using an AddAction and adding it to the vehicle itself, like this: The problem is that this adds the option to lean out for everyone in the helicopter, including the pilot, co-pilot and passengers. I've attempted to change "crew" to "gunner", "turret", "turretUnit" and a dozen other things, but nothing seems to work. Is there a way to do this? Can I add an AddAction to Door Gunners in any way? Do I need to do it without adding the AddAction to the vehicle? Any help or tips in the right direction is appreciated!
  11. I realize it might be too much additional work, but if you're looking for suggestions I think strapped on anti-tank launchers or alternate portable radios/SATCOMM device would fit in well. Either way, I appreciate this a lot. As much as I like the vanilla ATVs, I've always wanted variants with additional gear and equipment, and for a first attempt these look fantastic.
  12. Wow. The nerve of some people! I honestly thought about offering to assist after seeing your previous posts, as I have some config experience with helicopters in particular, but I've never made anything from the ground up, so I would probably be more hindrance than help. I hope you give yourself some time to relax though, no need to burn yourself out. Many of us here have waited for these birds for a while, but I'm sure we have the patience to wait a bit longer.
  13. You might be aware of it already, but if you're looking for reference material for Norwegian equipment, there's numerous high quality images on the official Norwegian Armed Forces Media Archive. I'd be happy to assist if you're unable to access it or need help navigating through all the Norwegian.

    Tier 1 Gear Pack

    It's a band-aid solution, but you could switch the style of medical menu from 3D selections to radial. It will put all the medical interaction points on the base interaction point instead of the limbs.
  15. Since we're more or less on the topic of the DAP and the sacrifice of service members; some of you may know that CW4 Cliff "Elvis" Wolcott, who was killed in the Battle of Mogadishu, was essentially the creator of the DAP airframe. I am sure he would be proud to see its continuing legacy as a truly awesome gunship. From Michael Durant's In the Company of Heroes:
  16. Happy Easter, indeed! The birds look better and better every time you post. Can't wait to see the DAP (and its 30mm) as well as the SOCMOD teaser!

    JETS DLC Wishlist

    I agree that balance shouldn't inherently be present in the game design. Balancing should solely be a responsibility of mission makers. ArmA is a military sandbox after all.
  18. We don't - it's not released yet.
