Yet another small update with a question attached. First quick teaser since I have kept so long silent of ingame screenshots, but then in return I have got a lot done in meantime.
And now the question part. I have edited BIS faces in attempt to get battle worn look on some faces to bring variety on clean and neat regular face. Obiviously it still needs some work on it. Should we keep them in mod or scrap this idea?
Von Rundstedt released some new WIP screenshots showing his upcoming FWW2 - Finland at War 1939-1945 on the BIS Forums.
M/26 Lahti-Saloranta LMG The weapon was able to fire in both full automatic and semi-automatic modes. M/26 was extremely accurate and earned name "rapidfire rifle". Finnish Army only used 20 round box magazine (instead of 75 rounds drum) which didn't really support weapons capabilities. Even greater mistake was that parts were too tight, which caused jamming when dirt got inside. Finnish soldiers prefered Soviet counterpart DP-27 over domestic M/26 (click on picture).
and Quick screenshot on Mosin Nagant accesories, bayonet and PU scope (on seperate scope picture I accidently cut off part of model, base of scope is more detailed).
Preview of featured mines in mod (still WIP). Mod includes 3 different type of mines, AT-mine (PSM36), AP-mine (Luhas trap) and pipemine. AT-mine requires vehicles track or wheel to go over the mine before it explodes.
Only visible part of mine is small part of cap which makes spotting harder to player driven vehicle. To make mine easier to spot in this video it is marked with orange smoke. There isn't much need to comment about AP-mine, video shows pretty clear how it is and works.
Pipemine tripwire lenght can be set by player since both sticks can be placed at will and their placement can be manipulated before arming the mine.
Also T-20 Komsomolets prime mover is model/texture-wise ready and in-game. Capable to tow AT-gun and artillery pieces (still to do) with weapon crew of 6 men. Original model by Wildo, redone by me
EMSI from the CSLA Studios released several pictures of their Mi-24 Hind made by EricM/Rock comes with three variants, and of their MiG-29A Fulcrum on the BI Forums.
Mecko informed us that addonmaker B@Co released several new impressive pictures of his work in progress Arado196 aircraft and the famous Bismarck. Addonmaker is also working on a release for ArmA 2.
wld427 released three new pictures of his upcoming CH-47 with ramp and mini-gun on the BI Forums.
Ive been poking around with this for a while outside of project RACS. I made it for the guys on the XS Arma Server clan. Its alot of fun and the AI fly it liek a dream. The Skin is jsut a plain olive drab so it fits well with almost any scenario. I still need to adjust the proxy for the rear gunner so he sits jsut right. The chopper is equipped with 2 M240 window guns and an M134 on the ramp.
Also included in the pack will be several versions of the Harrier with different loadouts and an A-10. Thanks to RockofSL for the flight adjustment demo as i used it for my base.
I hope to release this in the next few days if there is any interest.
