agamoth has release a new version of his Resistance units addons on the BI Forums. But now this addon is changing, featuring post-apocalyptic units, and a full Apocalyse Mod is now to come !
The Resistance units has been turned into a post-apocalypse mod now and there will much more to it from here on... before I get on with that here's the last beta of the units so you don't have to wait too long to try out the newest additions. Still didn't fix the small arms fire and still no bloodtextures for some reason I just can't get them to work no matter what I do.
So about the Post-Apocalypse mod: after an apocalyptic event survivours strugle to keep alive agains both mutations, other survivours and the New Order wich is the only well organized goup left, they had acces to weapons and equipment enough to make a small army and thats what they have done... they are cruel and takes whatever they will, untill the other survivours had enough and start fighting back.

Solus and Killswitch updated their extended init eventhandler addon and released the stable version 1.7 on the BI Forums. (The problem was that the XEH system doesn't work with class Static. Removing XEH from that base class stopped the crashing problems)

1.6 Fixed: The "exclude" property will apply to the specified class(es) and all subclasses thereof.

william1 informed us that he has updated his RHS Units replacement config on the BI Forums. Simply install this replacement config and the SLA units will be replaced by the oustanding RHS Units.
william1 updated his config replacement that improves ArmA's AI (especially in CQB). The scripts are depicted from TonyRangers FFN Mod. The required addons from the FFN Mod are included. Watch the YouTube Video to find out what this addon does.
Some time ago , TonyRangers released a beautiful minimod that went quite unnoticed between the Arma comunity ,it contained some beautiful features especially the great dodge movement when hit or the cqb movement. Unfortunately those features were only abailable for his Tr_men.
1.1 changes: -made extended eventhandlers compatible (needed) -taken out some features like supressive fire or especialized soldiers only able to enter vehicles (pilots->planes/choppers,etc) to reduce the lag to the max -compatible with other mods like SIX tracers, Maddmats effects and @ECS mod. (to make it compatible with @ECS mod you have to put @ECS mod before @FFN mod in the loading order , something like this:
Matt Rochelle informed us about the ECS Mod an modification similar to OFP's ECP. It adds secondary tank explosions, crew bailing on fire, chimney smoke, amazing sound Effects, AI shouting and much more to the game. Find out more on their website.
The Enhanced Configuration System (ECS) is a privately developed addon for Armed Assault by the ECS team. It was riginally written for Operation Flashpoint in 2005, to increase the Co-operative gameplay, game environment, effects, and AI reactions. The project was completely reworked for Armed Assault in February 2007. Since then, the project has grown and expanded to include many features far beyond it's original inception. The mod was expressly intended for co-op use only and is not geared to PvP missions. It is however fully compatible in both single and multiplayers modes, including the campaign and Queen's Gambit.
Edit: At the moment their website is down, but now you can get every pack from our FTP
We would appreciate it if someone could create a YouTube video shwoing the effects ingame. Simply post the video link and we will embed it in the news.
agamoth has finally updated his resistance units on the BI forums. This addon comes up with several unique freedom fighter units.
New/fixed in this version:
-fixed custom faces -new units -new grayish color tone to all units -a few smaller bugs corrected
The units are supposed to be some sort of post-apocalypse style freedom fighters should be a good adition to the zombie or alien mods.
I changed to config back to using BIS weapons, you can just change the config to the loadouts you like the best for them, should anyone need help with this PM me in the BI forum and I'll be happy to help
Ryan_D has updated his sky replacement addon on the BI forums. This addon replaces the ArmA skies with custom made textures as seen on the screenshot below.
Me and The D made a little sky replacement addon. It replaces most of the cloudy sky textures, and the clear blue sky texture. Updated to v3.1
Credits: The D - made all of the cloudy sky textures.
nikietha released a beta version of his Extended Voice Addon in th BI Forums. It would be great if someone could make a YouTube video showing the alternative radio voices added by this addon in action. Just post the link below and we will add it to the news.
This Addon contains some additional words and adds some variants to the AI radioprotocol basically, the reports on wounds, losses, targeting and attack. Two variants are given: with a standard set of words, and with reduced. In the reduced variant - bot's numbers, the exact indication of target (machinegunner or specops - both are simple men), and exact distance - cut off. This is little accelerates and simplifies a radioprotocol. All bots radiochat subtitles are saved as original. The new words variants are taken from ca\sounds\missions\character_name and completely correspond to characters voices in ca\voice. Addon based on Armed Assault Speech Database, by =BFP=Cheetah, and flea's detailed instructions.
I need some help with adding more report to RadioProtocol by config or eventhendlers script: "reloading", "frag_out", "incoming".... but scripting is nothing to me. E-Mail address : nikita320106@yahoo.com
Blechreiz made a YouTube video using this addon. Watch it below !
Edit: Fixed version uploaded, the standart version is now working properly
Franze has updated hisF/A-18E/F Super Hornet addon on the BI Forums. This is a port of the F/A-18E/F that was originally made for Operation Flashpoint by MAS Productions.
No gameplay changes (that I know of), but binarization results in no ST errors being generated in RPT, and model sections have been optimized (detail lods do not exceed 25 sections). Note that not ALL RPT errors have been fixed, but it's a massive improvement over beta 0.1's 4 meg RPTs.
General_NS has sent us an updated version of his Serbian Police and Civilian Peugeot 307 pack.
Many things changed: - Fixed geometry lod (you can't walk through car) - Fixed speed and rpm indicators (when you turn on lights) - New textures for damage 50% and damage 100% - Police rotation light (can be turn on and turn off from cars) - And many things, i can't remember them all, just try it and you will see!
