Cool, anyway to get some voice work from original, or is this strictly just the missions?

[Lightspeed_aust]

it's a bit of everything from the original but with Arma2 blended in

Hey , im working on a Ghost recon mod to . Full one for arma 2 , ive already made some unifroms from Ghost recon to arma 2 , not exacly the ones but i sued the same textures , is there anyway to contact with you ? id liek t ohelp you o nthe island thunder mission , i can make real fast the uniforms , i just need to delete the PASGT helmet and add a woodland boonie hat.

Ive already made the Original oens fro mthe russian campaign and the desert siege now " mp1 "

now i just gotta make this happend on arma 2

i would def be interested in using your skins although the Force Recon units which are stock in Arma2 make pretty good modern day Ghosts. i guess the main difference would be the camo pattern which was woodland not marpat in IT.

Yeah make this happen, Just make sure its highly polished. Would love to see voice overs and old ghost recon music If you don't mind me asking, what were some of the objectives in Island thunder? I never played it on PC.

edit. just read the old thread

[Lightspeed_aust]

gr8 news - i just played first mission using the upsmon script with a mix of fortify, nowait and nowp and also tweaked the radio distance low enough so that AI would not all abandon original zones at the first sign of conflict. as such, it plays out very similar to a Ghost Recon mission where objective zones will have units patrolling or guarding and will then move to fight/flank.

please remember though that we are playing on a new map - and i have selected similar landscapes to the original IT but obviously the places aren't exactly the same.

i will continue to tweak until it feels like GR and every test seems like its getting closer to what i want.

i will release 2 to 3 different versions of this - SP, 7 player coop, and possibly a 12-15 man coop for the larger groups with more AI but essentially same mission.

the 7 man coop and sp consists of the following units -

Squad Leader
Grenadier
AT Specialist
Demolitions Specialist
Heavy Gunner
Sniper
Medic
(these may be adjusted depending on the demands of each mission)

Nice.

Btw you could use scripts to spawn more units in each enemy group depending on the player numbers. No need to do several versions imo.

[Lightspeed_aust]

have you got such a script? and can i control where the units spawn? if so, that would be ideal.
