OMAC has released his first OMAC Mission Pack 1 on the BI Forums.
Here are five new missions for ArmA 2 Combined Operations. These are the first missions I've released, and represent the fruits of much research and editing time. I have introduced as much randomization as possible in order to maximize replay value. Hopefully you will enjoy playing them. I would appreciate any bug reports and suggestions. If real bugs are found, I will fix them and re-post.
Three of the missions are suitable for SP and MP play in the style of sander's excellent CWR2 coop missions. However, I have never played them in MP, so I am not sure if they will work properly.

colonel stagler has released his Modernised Russian Naval Infantry (MORPEH) v.2 addon on the BI Forums.
This is v.2 of my Naval Infantry. They are completely new models from the old version, a seperate addon you might say. They also come in woodland and desert flavour now. Firstly id like to appologise as the classnames have all changed. Id also like to appologise because the Pilot, Commander, and BRDM2 have been removed from this new version. This new version has the new PASGT style Russian helmet and newer armoured vests. The Naval Infantry arent as well supplied as the motor rifle or VDV troops so they still retain some older equipment. That is why I chose to use the older vests and no digital flora camoflage pattern. I designed these to go alongside RHS BTR70. All vehicles in this new version share the same desert camo as the RHS BTR70.
v.2
- Russian infantry with naval troop insignia addon with OA features like backpacks and TI. - Russian Mi8, Ural, and UAZ desert reskins. - New KSOR camouflage pattern. - Requires Operation Arrowhead. - Works with ACE 2 (They will be incorporated into ACE soon). - Works with any weapon replacement packs including Suddens AK74M pack.

VanhA-ICON has released a co20 @I44 Feuer Frei MP mission on the BI Forums. Invasion 1944 - DDay needed.
Breach US defences and support the tank formation.
What I was after with this mission was a support assault alongside a tank formation. So no cloak and dagger here, just push forward aiding the tanks. If all friendly tanks/vehicles get destroyed the mission will fail. Alongside the BIS first aid modules there is also Celery_Heal script to aid you further.

This is a work in progress thread on my interaction scripts for civilians. It currently consists out off three parts, Arrest, Search and Talking. Everything is currently Alpha state and is nowhere near where I want it to be yet. While it's been laying around for a bit already, I have decided to futher develop it and hopefully share with the rest of the community. Everything will be multiplayer compatible.

Allows to accelerate the in-game daytime maintaining the rest of the simulation normal "speed" intact. Mimics time acceleration found in GTA series and others.
Nukerat has released some WIP screenshots of his work on A10 Desert Camo Skin on the BI Forums.
I thought I would share my attempt at an A10 Desert Camo skin with respect to the Takistan Enviornment. It is not perfect but I think it is getting close. I can tell you though that the mouth/teeth were a pita due to it crossing multiple panels at different angles on the templete. Any suggestions or comments are more than welcome.
Blakeace has informed us about Blake's AI FO Module Version 1.4 release on the BI Forums.
Version 1.4 - Updated the prediction algorithm when units are on a road. - Tweeked the general prediction algorithm's lead caculations. - The BIS artillery module now gives the artillery units all the available ammo types by default. Because of this the below changes were made. - Set the default SADARM ammunition type count to zero. By default these specialised rounds shouldn't be available I believe. - Updated the sample missions. No need to manually set specialised ammo types to the artillery units, they now get them by default. Note: Use the ammo type number of fire missions counters to set which types are available and how many missions they can deliver.
