FFAMM 1.5 trailer by Fromz | http://www.vimeo.com/1240681

This trailer, without any audio post production. I think actual effect in game will stronger than this video trailer, because I didn't record it with sound stereo mix, and some loss of quality.

INSTALLATION:

=============

Copy the @FROMZ folder to your ArmA directory where your arma.exe is located.

(If you have the old version of my mods, FFAMM and China Special Forces mod, just overwhite and DELETE ANY OLD VERSION FFAMM)

To edit the shortcut command line:

Find or make a shorcut to ArmA and right click it then select properties.

Find the line that says "Target:" and has something like this:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">"C:\Program Files\ArmA\arma.exe"

Then add -mod=@FROMZ on the end so it looks like this:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">"C:\Program Files\ArmA\arma.exe" -nosplash -mod=@FROMZ

If you don't know how to setup and maintain your mod folders I recommend you to read armaholic.com's FAQ

KNOWN ISSUES:

==============

None at present

under test ArmA 1.14 original version, both SP and MP games

If the tracers and blood do not appear in MP game, try to add a game logic named "server" in the mission editor

CHANGE LOG:

============

v1.53 perfect version

>>> changed the MP5A5, G36C, M136 shooting sounds

>>> amended the UH60, Ka50,AH1Z engine sounds

>>> changed the M4A1SD and M134 fire sound effects (reduce volume)

>>> added M2, DSHKM heavy machine guns shell sounds

>>> slightly modified the soldier's equipment sounds in action

>>> discarded six_blood addon, Because compatibility and game balance not good and some times may reduce PC performance in MP

>>> discarded M24 and M107 sniper rifles tracers

I got wood when I heard the A-10. -> Downloading.  

Congrats on the release Fromz. Top notch audio as ALWAYS!

Need more mirrors...

The ones that are up, are quite slow...

Sorry

Brill.

Apart from the fact that I am at work, come on lunchtime 4 hours to go!

wow))

really big thanx for really great work

btw video not safe on work)) a10 has frightened me))

The M249 is verry close model to our KSP58...

And i have to say it isnt really accurate...

Ive fired the one for almost 5 years and

i DO know how it sounds...And overall

i miss alot of PUNCH in the sounds...

Some bass is missing aswell...

But that is easily compensated here as i have equipment in my

studio to do that...

Congrats on the release! I'll be downloading and testing ASAP!

Wow surprise, thanks fromz

Kind regards

Thx for the link miller.   Downloaded in 20secs.

I tried like 4 times with Fromz's links and each time it disconnected halfway though.   Now i can try it, thx mate.

@Fromz thx for all your hard word and although a bit of a surprise, much appreciated. Now you've knocked off Hifi's mod from my shortcut, not an easy achievement. Shame i gotta work tonight  

Fromz, you the man. I wish I wern't back training over the weekend because otherwise I would be playing some armed assault again!

Thanks a lot fromz, not only is your work really plug n' play, but it is also superbly done  .

Thanks!

excellent release Fromz.

I'll be download ASAP.

A-10 sounds amazing

Downloaded....

Advantages: Great firearms sound and number one mod with tank sounds i like. Increases the game atmosphere with the running sound, great tracers and the new blood effects.

but I don't understand why:

-The M24 sniper rifle has a tracer bullet at the first shot?!

- The Mk12 SPR sounds so different from the M16A4... It is almost the same gun.

but all in all amazing job.

Going to download and try this out. Been looking for a decent alternative to FDF and/or HiFi for a while now. This sounds good.

Hey,

To be honest, one of THE best sound mods ever! Good Job!!!

alpha125rbf, Hi,

Quote[/b] ]The M24 sniper rifle has a tracer bullet at the first shot?!

Check olive-drab.com - M-24 7.62mm Sniper Rifle:

"The M24 can fire NATO 7.62mm ammunition including long-range ball, ball/tracer and armor piercing (AP) ammunition"

Quote[/b] ]The Mk12 SPR sounds so different from the M16A4... It is almost the same gun.

Check globalsecurity.org - MK12 Sniper Rifle / Special Purpose Receiver (SPR):

"is a heavily modified deviation from the familiar AR15/M16 line of infantry weapons"

Anyway,  Thank you for your suggestion, I will think about them  

Great news

Fromz >>>>>>>> Mozart >>>>>>>>>>> Strauss >>>>>>>>>> Bethoven >>>>>>>>>> The others

Excellent mod.

As for the m24 yes it does fire 7.62 nato however Ive never heard of a sniper ever using a tracer rnd.

I was just wondering why the shot sounds so different from the M16A4, both rifles use the same ammo. But Ok. This small thing is not a big deal.

M24 Sniper Rifle Ammunition

The M24 can fire NATO 7.62mm ammunition including long-range ball, ball/tracer and armor piercing (AP) ammunition. Long-range ammunition is produced to stringent tolerances to ensure superior accuracy. AP ammunition enables snipers to penetrate hard cover, such as urban terrain and light armor. The AP (black tip) round can penetrate 20mm of hardened steel at 100 meters.

They say it can fire tracer ammo, for snipers in squards for example.. But in classical sniper missions where you go out alone to kill one enemy with a single shot it is not very inteligent to do the kill with a tracer bullet - if you want to survive.

Someone said about this new release "ah my ears are bleeding"

Some weapons have to much reverb, tracked vehicles are very silent on the move, SD weapons sound bit strange, A-10 engine sound like an light aircraft etc. In the end its up to the player what he likes to hear. Thanks for another choice of sound!

btw. hope there will be no missions again that have some kind of "soundmod dependency".

Oh my god! I love your A-10 sound it is so realistic that it almost overloaded my brain!

And your KA-50, AH-6 and Uh-60(which sounds a lot like the COD4 sounds lol) sounds are wicked! Will you be updating the Mi-17 sounds because they are still default... same with the 5-ton and Ural trucks

Assuming you are listening to requests, Fromz, could you also update the M119 sound and perhaps attach some interesting fly sounds to the shells they fire? Just a simple whistling effect would be spectacular.

Thank you for the great deal of effort you've put into this. It's fantastic!
