Para Rangers


Recommended Posts

Hey Para or anyone for that matter where can I get your Rangers mod for VBS? I have read through your post on the VBS forum and there is a link to the addons section, but I can't seem to find the Rangers addin. I'm guessing your work was folded into the Special Forces Addon?

Thanks

They have had some server issues off & on for a while..especially when dealing with encrypted addons, are you seeing any info on the addons page that reads:

This resource is encrypted for your customer number (######)

this would be next to each of the encrypted addons.

If not your ID# may not be set up yet?

Para's Rangers are a standalone addon, and were encrypted for each unique user

I hope you enjoy them once they're up again.

Speaking of my addons...

I've been messing around with the animation editor, and I've been able to replace some of the default movements. :) In my animation mod, soldiers now stand and walk with their rifles slung in front of them when at ease. In addition, you can now actually move in the crouched position, rather than move standing when you're crouched. :)

I hope your SF addon gets upped soon too Para. In the process of dling all the others now.

Question, thought I heard BAS released their spec ops birds for VBS. True? If so where are they?

My SF addon won't be ready for release for awhile. It's currently in a very, very early beta stage, in limited testing. Regarding BAS's birds, they haven't released for VBS1 that I know of.

Oh I thought you released it already as there's a long thread on the VBS board.

BAS's new SF character models and skins look great.

And I guess I heard wrong on the choppers. Woulda been cool to have their MH-47 in-game. Love that bird.

I'm not a fan of BAS's stuff. Their choppers are cool, but their characters are subpar IMO. Thirty's retex's are great though. He took the stitching technique I showed him and really ran with it.

EDIT - Their new stuff does look nice. I suspect that Thirty is somehow involved. Their new SF characters look much more ... clean... than their old stuff. Textures are sharp, colors match up well, etc. I'm actually impressed, and that's saying a lot.

Yeah, I thought they were pretty impressive, all things considered. A drastic improvement over their OFP chr models.

They're an improvement over all of their models. I disliked the early screenshots of their VBS1 SF stuff. Yuch. They're coming along great though.

Para, what happened to the SEAL units you were working on for VBS awhile back? Did you end up scrapping 'em or something?

Yes and no. I kept going back to Special Forces, so I decided to put the SEALs on hold while I worked on my SF guys. They're coming along great, but I'm getting a random CTD, and I don't know why. :(

I'm sure you'll get it sorted soon. I got your SEAL beta with my copy of VBS. Thanks for sending it btw. :D

One last question. Were your Rangers released as final or are they in beta as well? Anywhere to get 'em?

Para's Rangers were final releases. They were up on VBS resource site under add ons but I'm guessing since they have had trouble in the past with the service provider they might not be visibile to all the users.

And it does take awhile for 300 or so add ons to be uploaded to each encryption number :yes:
