blakeace has informed us about updated AI Forward Observer v1.4.02, PRADAR (Player Radar) V1.2.03and PINS (Pseudo Inertial Navigation System) and Bombing v1.03.02 relearse on the BI Forums.
Blake's AI Forward Observer v1.4.02
Added: Distance given in "debug" mode is referenced to the first artillery unit synced to the module if using placed units. Module is used for dynamically placed units. Added: Marker range circles showing ranges when using "debug" mode. Improved: FO's will now only call missions from one battery at a time if they are synced to multiple AI FO modules. If using multiple batteries and FO's will more likely spread the fire missions around the different FO's better.
Blake's PRADAR v1.2.03
v1.2.03Changed: Near object information gathering moved to a second thread. Changed: Reduced the number of dots and names displayed to reduce stutter. Total of 6 each. Added: Number of peripheral dots displayed dynamically changes to only have a maximum combination of 8 controls displayed at once. Excluding lists. To help reduce stuttering issue introduced in game engine changes in patch 1.62. Changed: Increased the range to 80m. Changed: Collection area is now forward of the players view. Centre 30m unless the player is looking at the ground closer. This allows better filtering of desired focus. Changed: Reduced the peripheral dot size to 50% to be less obtrusive. Changed: Label size, position, range viewable, and colour/alpha value for easier viewing.
Blake's PINS v1.03.02
Altered: Menus to be created with the aircraft rather than dynamically to prevent duplication.

monovdd has released a alpha of his addon EODmyDOG on the BIS Forums that requires A2:CO and CBA.
EODmyDog is an addon (module) that extends the gameplay in Arma 2 CO, and takes the role of combat engineer to another level. This addon invokes a dog companion for the Engineer and with this you can search for mines in a specific area, looking for explosives in objects or units and attack enemies.
Unlike other scripts or addons, EODmyDOG has a menu that facilitates user interaction and makes the addon user-friendly. Also it has a way to detect explosives that is fully compatible with ACE and Arma 2 CO Vanilla Version (only with CBA).
Changes since script version to addon version: -I Finally found a solution to send animations with SwitchMove across the network. -New framework for dialogs and menus. -New system for translating. -New Sounds, Images and stiles. -New Engine with less usage of network transmission. -New EODmydog function that extends the simulation on Arma 2 CO

It's been a while since I released something and altough work on my next big project is in progress (yeah, that coming soon on my website is actually not this update, nor DayZ: Namalsk (but be sure to check that!), there are few must do's for my currently released work. My test island Namalsk once again had an opportunity to show its strength! This time was my primary goal of this relatively quick release to test the experience from the better terrain grid, AI and objects and the overall AI interaction with the environment! Namalsk got a lot of fine things, campaign got polished and some new things were added to the modification!

Mondkalb has released his MBG Generic African Buildings v1.0 addon on the BI Forums. Arma2 or Arma2:OA needed.
Originally part of a much much larger project, I decided to release these right now so more people can use these in the meantime.
It features a small collection of structures that are inspired by African/Middle-Eastern architecture. These buildings can probably supplement the existing selection offered by OA.
Content: 4 large apartment buildings, of which the biggest is fully walkable. 3 old buildings intended for small villages or ruins. One is painted in zebra camo as a safari/ranger station. 3 types of tiny slum huts that come in 8 different visual appearances. Highly accurate icons of the buildings for stress-free usage in the mission editor. Arma2:OA is not required For usage in (Northern-) African or Middle-Eastern terrains.
In total with all color variants this adds up to 33 new objects.
