Recreate the fake IRA video so you too can fool overworked, underpaid documentary makers!
The original YouTube vid from post 1 was removed this evening, possibly someone (I wonder who) complained of copyright infringement. It's back! Thanks to jerryhopper

Careful analysis and reconnaissance (flying up and down the railway to find the right bridge) has led me to the exact spot where the sorry tale began! The middle of the left edge of grid square 070124 near Chernogorsk on Chernarus Island.

Settings:
-You need low video settings, the IRA fan has a crap PC. I messed for ages but my monitor and video card is too good. I can't make it look as bad. Also he did not film it with the in game camera - he used a hand held camera to film the monitor.
-Turn the gamma way down and the brightness all the way up, you need lots of contrast.
-You need to set the barrels on fire with the action menu.
-You possibly need one of the vegetation tweak mods. There are fewer trees in the video?
-You will need a recording of some Irish folk music, tin whistles and violins etc.
-The view distance in the video is about 500m (wow just how crap is that PC?) You can see the hills behind the nearest trees don't show in the video.
Place your items in the map editor like so, the position of the player (bottom left) must be precise to recreate the viewing angle:
