Once again Ruhisu gave us interesting WIP shots and information about an upcoming Armed-Assault Mod. The screens below represent the Project'85 Mod. Project 85 is made by a group of people who are working on a MOD about the Cold War hypothetically escalating around the year 1985.
Project'85 aims in depicting a fictional armed conflict between the forces of the NATO and the Warsaw Pact that might have taken place in 1985. The theater chosen is middle-eastern europe. The main Forces to be taking part are:
- US Army - Soviet Army - Polish People's Army - Partisans
Future plans include adding more factions as for example the East German NVA, or the western Bundeswehr.

andersson has released his magazines addon on the BI forums. This addon replaces the BIS magazine models with new, unique ones. Before, in vanilla ArmA, all the magazine models were just satchel bags, as you probably have noticed while dropping magazines on the ground, but now you can actually see what they really are, after installing this addon, as seen on the screenshot below.
I been dead tired on the satchel bags as ammo. Now when BI so kindly released their mlods it was a piece of cake to do this. So most credit goes to BIS as they made the models, I only cutted away the magasines.
As this is made using the released BI mlods I agree to the licens they are released with. So read the readme if you are going to use something for your own models.
One thing I'm not really satisfied with is the grenades, they use the same model regardless of HE or flare...

Matt Rochelle has informed us, that Suma has written an interesting article about the process of finding and eliminateing bugs in their games. You can find the article on the BIS Website Some "behind the scenes information" about the bug fixing process Bug fixing is an important part of game development. It's a part which is not very attractive to do, because it's most often not very creative, but it is necessary - without it, no product can be released. This blog entry aims to tell you a little about how the bug fixing process is organized within Bohemia Interactive.

They will change some details with theŁoś bomber. Also planes as the ME 110 and PZL 23 Karaś will get a second pilot. Still the airplanes need cockpit textures and the issues withe the rotors and engine have to be fixed.

Chris Henderson has updated his ArmA Edit tool to 1.2.95 and released it on his web site. For those who already have an 1.2.xx version there is also a patch.

This pack is made up units based on customized versions of SLA units with some custom gear from our OFP mod added to them. Before anyone says it, in real life the Syrian Army DOES use AK-74's. They are one of the few non-Russian countries to use them. We used a slightly modified SLA cammo for the woodland cammo and our Syrian lizard skin cammo as we had from our OFP Syrian units. For vehicles, only the T-72 is reskinned.
