Miles Teg: thanks for the kind words on the mines.
The AP mines have an explosive charge that's not range-specific (so if you're standing behind a claymore, you will get killed).
As for the "toe poppers" -- yes, you're right. ***If you're standing on top of them, you will get killed instead of just losing your legs. ***It's tough. ***In OFP the only way to make a soldier completely incapacitated is to kill him. ***We opted for this solution (and the close-in killing is done by a CoCmineblastlight I believe). ***If you want to fiddle with it, you'll have to de-pbo it. ***The POMZ-2M and Apple both run the Pomzfire.sqs script. ***To remove the blast, simply change the server-side CoCMineBlastLight with CoCMineBlastSpoof (or whatever it's called -- it's in the client-side part of the script). ***Of course, if you want to redistribute, talk to us first[/QUOTE]<span id='postcolor'>
I guess I could just use that old "toe-popper" script that came out a while back. ***That should work ok. ***It basically just cam_creates a grenade under ground at a depth where it doesn't usually kill the soldier when it blows up. *** I'll have to try that one out on some of your smaller mines. ***However it's just those little toepopper AP mines (I forgot the model#) that it would be realistic for. ***The others are larger AP pressure mines that tend to really tear you up and definitely can kill you by blowing your hole feet/legs off while sending a large amount of shrapnel up into your crotch. ***
As for the claymore, yeah I just tested them again standing close to it in back and yeah...it got me. ***
Damn frogs! *** In Delta Force Land Warrior, my squad (The Gun Dogs) called the claymores in the game "frogs" because they had a nasty way of jumping out at you. ***
Will there be any more mines released by your team? ***There are a few more that would be useful. ***The Russians have a "bouncing betty" bounding mine called the OZM-4
and a newer version called the OZM-72.
***Another nasty and extremely lethal bounding mine is the Italian made Valmara-69 pictured below. ***
Also the Russians have a copy of the claymore mine called the MON-50. ***It basically looks just like the claymore so you wouldn't really need to retexture it. ***Just rename a copy of your claymore model and textures for the Russian side. *** ***
