Was there a fire mod for arma?

Hey fellas,

I am pretty sure a while back, that i saw a mod for Arma 1 where soldiers could be set on fire, and houses and buldings etc also set fire. Here is a video of it:

It was similar to Far Cry 2, in that the fire spreads dynamically. Does anyone know where i can find this mod? I searched everywhere and found nothing.

Regards,

Rich.

What lies i have never heard of this, hmmm maybe someone can enlighten

Awesome, I hope its found...or updated for the ArmAII engine. It would make the explosions look so much better, and having the fire spread would be icing on the cake.

Imagine, during a night mission, one laser-designator team with a few fastmovers ready to reduce a town to flames and rubble. To hell with civilian morale.:smiley-evil:

If I recall correctly, that was XAM's extreme mod. I heard that the lead dev bailed and the project halted. The link I had for them is dead, so I can't confirm it.

*edit: Oops, it was ECS

That's neither XAM nor ECS. It's actually a little project of mine. It was never publicly released though. Unfortunately I didn't have time, and I still don't, to finish it properly. It has some serious optimisation issues.
Allthough I hope this inspires some talented people to make something similar for ARMA2. It would truly be awsome, but imho it's not that necessary. Just fun to play around with :)

DMWarwick is working on a fire&smoke mod that will included spreading fire as well. You'll just have to wait.

In ARMA2 you can use a LOGIC to spawn fires/smoke with them. Also light sources can be spawned.

I placed a logic and set it to 50 in strenght - half the village was burning hehe. It isnt burning for real though - but there is fire/smoke. No one gets hurt or burnt down. But i bet some scripting can change that.

Slx mod had it for Arma as well. I once saw the entire city of Paraiso on fire with people running around burning everywhere -wish I could find my photos!

Hopefully, we will see the return of Solus again here :rolleyes:

Fire effects and spreading fire would be sweet. Really the only thing I missed from Far Cry 2.
