Parabellum Posted September 7, 2003 Author Share Posted September 7, 2003 Then you can get into cinematics.... mwuahhaha.... they're fun. GL with it! Yeah, cinematics can add alot to a mission or campaign, but IMHO, the time and planning involved in even a short cinematic isn't worth the end result; they usually don't really add all that much to the mission, at least not enough to justify the massive amount of time/planning required. Just my opinion, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly2442 Posted September 7, 2003 Share Posted September 7, 2003 I like em a lot. Of course, I'm one who likes watching game cinematics over and over again even though I've seen em a million times. I never hit the Escape key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, I'm one who likes watching game cinematics over and over again even though I've seen em a million times. I never hit the Escape key. I like them if I'm on a long chopper ride; I don't want to be bored while the bird is flying 10 Km to the target zone. But once the action starts, I prefer to just see the sights on my M240B and Ruskies falling as I squeeze the trigger, er... press the mouse button.

You mean BAS addons? BIS is the company that actually makes OFP. BAS is the addon group. As I've said before, BAS's soldiers and weapons are not great in my opinion, but their soldiers are better than the stock soldiers. Their weapons are mediocre at best. The MH60 by BAS is unbelievably cool though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked their Littlebird's before they edited the flight characteristics. I don't like them so much now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supasniper Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 I like them apart from in landing, all thier choppers have a tendency to blow up on me cos i come in a bit too hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parabellum Posted September 9, 2003 Author Share Posted September 9, 2003 I like them apart from in landing, all thier choppers have a tendency to blow up on me cos i come in a bit too hard Yeah, that's a beef of mine as well. Before my HD crashed, I had been working on some blackhawks that were much nicer to fly (IMHO) than BAS's birds. The BAS helicopters are too responsive. Not only that, but, if you turn too sharply, you'll suddenly find yourself flying backward at 100km/h. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcinko Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 Sounds like the first time i tried BIS's chinook, thing is toooo touchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parabellum Posted September 11, 2003 Author Share Posted September 11, 2003 I'm just wondering how some of you guys who've downloaded my addons like them so far. I'm in the process of re-working the character models, so that the LOD's switch a little more smoothly, as well as fixing that nasty bug in the distant LOD. Also, I'm toying around with some Russian counterparts for the US troops. So far, I like what I've been able to come up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supasniper Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 I like them, but how about a Recon medic, that's the only prob i had also, on the marksman's scope is the area around the scope ment to be black? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parabellum Posted September 11, 2003 Author Share Posted September 11, 2003 I like them, but how about a Recon medic, that's the only prob i had also, on the marksman's scope is the area around the scope ment to be black? It's meant to be a transparent shade of black, but I ran into some problems with the textures getting rasterized if I tried to use more than a 1-bit alpha, so I had to choose either a horribly rasterized texture, or a solid black area around the scope. Hopefully, I'll find a fix for it. It won't be hard to do up a recon medic though. I'll have an update in the next couple of weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly2442 Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 I think they're great! Any way that you could up the resolution of the scopes? I know they're supposed to be like you are focusing on the background, but a higher resolution scope/reticle would be pretty cool. A vehicle maybe? Plus a mission, then I think it would be perfect.

I'm working on a mission right now. As soon as I find a way to beat it, I'll wrap it up and ship it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supasniper Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 As soon as I find a way to beat it i keep making missions i can't beat, i got that Ia Trang Valley island and made a really coom LZ X-Ray mission and just can't beat it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made one on the Wake Island map, where your squad and another squad are on patrol, and get ambushed. One second, you're walking through the brush, and the next second you're in the middle of hell, with simulated claymores and flaretraps going off, and enemy machineguns ripping into your position. I can remember quite a few times when everyone on the West side was dead within seconds. Too bad it got lost when my PC took a dive. Anyway, the one I'm currently working on is set on Everon, and it's very similar to the FARP raid from AAO, only on a larger scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
