That looks fantastic. I have been longing for an Vietnam-era OH-6 in ArmA since I read Low Level Hell the first time.

the hard bit was making all that lot fit into one model.

Oh yes. I like that one a lot. Everyone loves a littlebird, and now we have one just perfect for small fast insertions and support.

 

Nice work egg. Full of lovely little period clutter as usual :)

Razorback did the textures - they are great. i'd like to decal some of it, so we can have more options at some point.

New tommy animated and optimised:

- fire selector,

- trigger,

- mag release,

- bolt,

- chambering rounds,

- diminishing rounds in mag (Seen through holes),

- safety goes on if you put the weapon over your shoulder.

oh man, i JUST finished Low Level Hell...gotta be one of THE best FAC type books I've ever read. Highly recommend this. You'll certainly get 'in the mood' to use the Loach...however to complete the pink team you'll need atleast 1 AH1 flying high to cover your butt!! :)

if you play a moddable game, expect big downloads.

 

lol if the mod doesn't have huge downloads per patch/release, i start to question it.

1. China lake launcher. It has no normal map or specular map?

2. Tommy gun. Is it original texture quality or it's your medium in-game settings? Will it have a specular map?

Looking forward to the new models and the loach specifically. However, the M1911A1 model is incorrect, when the slide comes back on the 1911 the recoil spring housing stays with it, not forward. And the curved bit on the back of the grip could come out a bit more, the magazine heel doesnt stick out on the bottom, and the small notch on the slide for the slide lock is missing, take a look at these pics for reference.

This truly is my favorite ArmA3 mod at the moment, just wanted to point out one bug that has been driving me crazy lately.

 

- The sight alignment on the M79 is off. A simple test on flat ground can confirm this. Grenades go beyond the selected range.

 

I'll have to try the M203 and the other GLs.
