Mine Detector

I felt that arma lacks some functionality in terms of detecting mines. Red rhombs that show you every mine in a big radius, even if you don't see them don't seem realistic to me. So i've asked AGM team if they can do something about it, and i found some script while discussing the functionailty. It was made by gpgpgp, so i've took it and slightly modified. Then i showed it to a great guy - Blender and he added a lot of cool stuff to it.

So basically this addon adds sound element for mine detection. If you are close enough to the mine and you are looking at it, and your minedetector is turned on, it starts beeping, the closer you are to the mine the faster it starts to beep.

All you need is a default mine detector in your inventory

How it looks:

v1.1

- lowered distance for mine detection from 10 to 5m.

- fixed issues with sounds looping.

- fixed issue with minedetector not working after respawn.

Nice, I've also made one a while back with almost near functionality.

Yeah, i'm kinda surprised that BI haven't yet implemented a normal minedetector :)

This is great, finally that mine detector have a proper functionality !!

I think this could be implemented in a major pack like AGM...would you mind if they should ask to add your mod as contribution to their mod ?

I've already shared source code with them. Its up to them to implement it or not. For now i just decided to release it for everyone, because even if they decide to make their own one, it will take some time to release.

Hmm, I'll take a look.

Thank you, just what my mine clearers in my civilian units addon needed : )

This is REALLY impressive.

I can imagine how nerve racking it must be to be on point.

Could anyone who's actually used this kind of equipment in operations provide some feedback on the accuracy?

e.g. weight, size, sensitivity, noise, etc.

Nice mod, makes playing as pioneer a bit more challenging and exciting :).

Does this mod write dependencies into mission.sqm?

isn't 5 meters a bit of a short distance when approaching bounding mines?

Only for bounding mines probably, but if you approach them carefully, not sprinting on full speed, that shouldn't be an issue.

Very cool;)

Column formation,AI on point,walking through a jungle.I cant wait! Was refusing to play with magic red triangles,this now opens up more interesting scenarions for me to create.
