EMSI bereichert die ArmA2 Editing Szene erneut mit einem sehr nützlichen Tool. Dem sogenannten A2D Editor. Der A2D Editor ist ein kleines sehr nützliches Tool zum erstellen von description.ext files für ArmA2 als auch Armed Assault und OFP. Somit dürfte es für jeden ein leichtes sein z.B. seine eigene Musik oder Sounds in seine Missionen zu integrieren.
Features: * Verschiedene Parameter und Sektionen * User kann wählen welche Sektion er erstellen möchte * Generierter Code wird vor dem speichern angezeigt, zur manuellen Korrigierung * Hilfedatei mit allen Funktionen einer Description.ext
Solus veröffentlichte ein sogenanntes "Ragdoll" Effect Addon, welches das herabfallen getöteter Einheiten von Gebäuden oder Dächern etwas anschaulicher macht.
Here's an addon I was working on: It make bodies attach to a physics object and fall down if they are above the ground, and then removes the object when they come to a stop. This is to reduce situations where people are sticking out over the sides of ledges. There didn't seem to be any serious bugs when testing it, and it should work independently of other SLX addons. It may need an update for MP which will come soon after someone can test it out in MP.
Features: -1 neue Faction -25+ Neue Infanterie Einheiten -20+ retexturierte Fahrzeuge -Neue Uniformen für Special Forces -Voll kompatibel mit dem Mission generator
Wer sich noch an die grossartige LIBMOD aus OFP erinnert, dem dürfte diese Nachricht freude bereiten. zenger informierte nämlich die Community in den BI-Foren über eine Fortsetzung der Liberation Mod. Das Team der russischen Sarmat Studios nehmen sich der Arbeit an und gaben flashpoint.ru auch ein ausführiches Interview zum Stand der Dinge. Ihr könnt alles im entsprechendem BI-Foren Thread nachlesen.
sander veröffentlichte in den BI Foren ein RCIR MinimiPara v1.00 Addon.
As the BLUFOR lacked a machinegun with magnifying optics to match the Pecheneg, I converted the Armed Assault BIS sample model into a Minimi Para with ACOG scope. It is a simple conversion, so it does not have the fancy reload animation of the Arma II M249.
IceBreakr hat auf Armaholic eine neue Version 2.0 seiner Panthera Insel veröffentlicht.
"Many have dreams. IceBreakr's dreamt of an island that many ArmA 2 players could enjoy, along with his team of dedicated mil-sim gamers. He put on his yellow working helmet, rolled up his sleeves and started building and building and building, until his dream become reality. It took, time, energy and a lot of dedication but after three months he has succeeded - its here: Island Panthera v2!"

USSRsniper veröffentlichte in den BI-Foren sein CheyTac Intervention M200 Scharfschützen Gewehr, welches das Waffenarsenal der SF in ArmA2 etwas aufstocken wird.
DMarwick veröffentlichte das JTD_FireAndSmoke beta 0.1 Addon in den offiziellen Foren. Dieses Addon realisiert in ArmA2 grössere und bessere Rauch Effekte. Brennende Wracks sind so meilenweit zu sehen und brennen auch länger. JTD_FireAndSmoke is an effects addon that adds bigger, better and more useful smoke than the default ingame smoke. The ingame smoke is unaffected, this addon "layers" effects over the top. It's MP compliant, looks great, and is AI viewblock by default. Destroyed vehicles will send up huge plumes of smoke visible from miles away and last a long time, very useful for a sense of battlefield presence and history. Additional to this there is a propagating fire functionality that will set forests, buildings and vehicles on fire dependant on proximity, wind, and rain.
