SWT_Janowich made for the community tutorial How to add vehicles to the game (Config) on the BI Forums.
Good evening, my name is SWT_Janowich and today, I'll bring you the world of ArmA II just a little closer. For me, its been close since Armed Assault: Combat Operations, so see me as your teacher rather than a stranger.
Wolfrug has released an updated version of his RUG High Dispersion Addon on the OFPEC Forums.
This addon creates an exact copy of every default hand-held weapon in vanilla Arma 2, except that their"dispersion" config value has been changed. This means the weapon is considerably less accurate, which leads to longer firefights between the AI (and the player, should s/he choose to use a 'HD' weapon).
The inspiration for this comes from the wonderful HD version of all the JAM weapons from old OFP (featured heavily in for instance the Tonal campaign). The soldiers wielding these weapons might represent untrained militias armed with sub-par weaponry. .... Updated to 1.2! Changelog: - Tweaked dispersion ratings a bit more - Added all vehicle weapons (although some still have no dispersion, e.g. missiles) - Removed added HD units & factions & groups, replaced with Modules (F7) for Men and Vehicles
