COop-04v01_stad_hostages = Demo mission, for 1-4 players in MP mode. (same as BETA release version)

Very simple set up, grab a vehicle and race your team members to the stadium, enjoy the views
of the vast concrete mass as you approach but beware its filed with Russians holding hostages.

The mission is a little rough as it was a spontaneous creation at a LAN party recently but it has
at least been tested with 4 players and we all got a few laughs out of it.
The hostages are realy just eye candy and there is no end trigger, but it does have respawn going so is basically endless
and it can be fun to see how far the AI will utilise the stadiums paths after they have been reborn.



Demo Mission soucefile for you to abuse and a tester mission containing just the stadium pieces, so you can feel free to simply
switch the pieces in editor or use the stadium for some quick bombing practice or to use as a template without having to editor place the stadium.
Be aware though you will need to clear the init lines of the pieces if they are moved.

-------------
INSTALLLATION
--------------
- place @PAFs_Stuff folder in your \ArmA2 folder
and include the -mod=@PAFs_Stuff suffix to your shortcut.
OR take the paf_stad_obj.pbo and paf_stad_obj.pbo.PAF_bisign and put it in which ever mod\addons folder you choose.

-Contents of the MPMissions folder to your \ArmA2\MPMissiosn folder.

--------------
USAGE
--------------
- feel free to use thenm on your island
- modify the demo mission any way you see fit
- or just place them in editor. Though I would strongly recomend using 'iOnOs' Real Time Editor for placement

- give credit when you feel credit is due.
- Do not attempt to extract the mlods for modification or rip any part of this addon
- If you do feel crazy enough to want to rip my addon just let me know and I may see what I can do about supplying source files.

-----------
KNOWN BUGS
-----------
- light still penetrates some corners of shadow LODs, though fixed many of them.
- textures are on the whole only a little better than my first attemp (sorry I STILL! cant seem to digital texture for sh.t)






Edit; find under Empty, Oz Isle Objects


mirrors are greatly appreciated

add in my domination. Thx.

[Muahaha]

Nice addon. Is it destructible?

[Pathetic_Berserker]

Nice addon. Is it destructible?

Not yet but I'm hoping to include some level of destruction for the final release

[Pathetic_Berserker]

a little update on textures, may post some more a little latter

[Snake Man]

Would you be interested of modifying this to suit the stadium in Mogadishu?

[SASrecon]

Would you be interested of modifying this to suit the stadium in Mogadishu?

hehe for the BHD mod right?
looking nice, i'm hoping you'll include partial destruction because i wouldn't want everyone in the stadium to die just because it has no proper destruction and everything just falls to the floor

I think a lot can be done with this mod.

[Pathetic_Berserker]

darker textures are helping with the limited shadow draw of the engine and I supose a bit more atmospheric.

@ Snake Man, Mogadishu isn't on my list at the mo but looking at some pics I googled I see it could be constructed in a similar way, the main structure is quite repetitive, so it could be done with 1 curve , 1 straight, 1 pavilion straight, and a score board. If nothing has been done about it after my lsit is taken care of I might consider it. From what I've seen a lot could be done by rearanging and reworking components from my current stadium.

@SAS recon, partial destruction is what I'm hoping for, but I'm not yet sure how many stages of destruction there will be.

[Pathetic_Berserker]

Ok I took the idea of destruction a bit further recently. Got it kind of working in game but ran into what is for now a show stopper.



look at the bottom of this last pic and you'll see that the default depth to hide the undamaged model isnt deep enough to cover the roof supports at the top of my building.



If anyone knows of a way to possibly solve this I'd appreciate the help

[Pathetic_Berserker]

Just a heads up for anyone who cares. Planning on doing a MP beta test of the next to be released version of this stadium in 3 weeks time. If all goes well there should be a signed release shortly after. Next release will included improved textures and damaged models (Armed Assault style, not incremental). Will throw up pics of damaged models tommorow for comment.
