VictorFarbau has updated his VFAI - AI Extension to version 2.0 and released it on the BI Forums. This addon makes units smarter and more independent, you can view a sample video of v1.4 below.
Improvements ============ 2.0 Faster response times, lowered required ammo levels to avoid excessive browsing 2.0 Enabled autodetection and usage of 3rd party weapons and ammo 2.0 VFAI can now be temporarily disabled per unit using the 'setCaptive' command (e.g. put 'this setcaptive true' into init line). As soon as the unit is not "captive" anymore it will resume the script and start collecting again.
YacieK posted a short YouTube video that shows his PMC units on our forums. This video is a little teaser before the actual addon gets released to the public.
RockofSL from the renown RKSL Studios has released new screenshots of their WIP on the Merlin HC3 addon on the BI Forums.
As you can see we’ve made quite a bit of progress with the Merlin HC.3. It’s now fully mapped and mostly textured but it really needs reworking a bit to make it suitable for release. There are still some things to do but the planned release will hopefully see some pretty interesting features: - Fully working and practical cockpit - DIRCM and Chaff & Flare countermeasures - Rescue winch - Under-slung Loads (see Cargo System) - Dynamic Rotor system (see Dynamic Rotor System)
Due to popular demand there will be several versions released time permitting: - Merlin HC3 - Merlin HC3A (MK512 recently purchased from Denmark and upgraded to UK mil spec) - Danish Merlin MK512 (as above but with different internals and countermeasures) - International EH101 – Grey – Roundel capable - International EH101 – Green – Roundel capable - International EH101 – Yellow/SAR – Roundel capable
Sparky from the Hellenic Warfare Mod has released a lot of teasing pictures of their UH-1H Huey addon yet to come on the Hellenic Warfare Mod Website.
Keeping up with our promise for quality addon production, the Hellenic Warfare Mod in association with the Hellenic ArmA community proudly presents a legend. The Hellenic Army Aviation UH-1H Huey transport helicopter is now undergoing structural and functional beta testing, with exquisite results so far. Having already tested the fully working model and textures, we are now in the process of incorporating some scripting enhancements that will take the 'beast' to the next realism level. As always, the model is accurately depicting the internal and external views of the Hellenic Army Aviation air veteran, bearing 2 mounted MG3 machineguns on port and starboard sides. Needless to say, the model and textures are made from scratch.
The helicopter will be available for downloading when beta testing is done, and it will be part of an addon pack that will contain a couple more surprises. To that end, a bug tracking system has been created at the HWM site. Any realistic and well intended observation will be greatly appreciated. So if you find something, kindly report it to the following link Bug Tracker (Beta Stage) No sign in required.

CBFASI from CBF Shipbuilding has released screenshots of their Work in progress on the BI Forums. CBF Shipbuilding are working alongside RKSL Studios. These pictures are featuring an old battleship and a modern assault ship probably of the HMS Ocean Class. They are far from being finished, but it's nice to know that some boats are going to sail on all that water around.
New Dockyard still under construction but they yard is already in use with the latest ship rolled down the slip and now getting fitted out, much work to do but she is now recognizeable for what she is...
The old battleship has had turrets built and has been on used on exercise to check the capability, 355mm has quite a punch..

Milkduster has released a Milkdusters Dark Rifles V1 addon on the BI Forums featuring M16/M4s with darker textures.
After releasing my darker ironsights people wanted the entire rifle to be darker, so here it is. This addon replaces BIS's textures with darker ones on the M16/M4 family rifles. The magazines are also a little bit darker. ... Don't try to run the addon along with Milkduster's Darker Ironsight Replacement/Addon. There are a few issues, it would be greatly appreciated if some one knew how to fix these.
