Pegasus Team 101 MULE

News / Operation Arrowhead / Mods and Addons

(0)

JSF 82nd Reaper submitted the first public version of the Pegasus Team 101 MULE he has been working on.

Quote JSF 82nd Reaper :

The MULE is an UGV or Unnamed Ground Vehicle, which can be used as mobile cover and provide fire suppression for the team. This addon was influenced by Lockheed Martin's MULE that is or was being created for the United States Army. I've taken great pride in this project with the community helping me, and I hope as time progresses I'll be able to make it even better.

There will be more updates, as I figure out how to get the Gear to work again, create better textures, attach a laser designator, and add missiles, create better textures, with some help from the community. (This will take time, for I'm still very new with scripting, modeling, and texturing.)

Please stop by my thread if there are any bugs, or issues that you've come across, and I'll do my best to help.

Coop mission : The Walking Dead by Zonekiller

News / Arma 2 / General

(0)

Zonekiller released a new zombie cooperative mission in the BI forums.

Quote Zonekiller :

This is the events that happened after Rick got shot and while he was in the coma. The city was falling apart.

It was bad enough with Zombies on the rampage but now the street gangs are trying to take over the city.

The Mayor has hired you to clean up this mess. Putting a bounty on the gang members as well as the zombies.

Your task is simple - as you have plans to get away far as possible. Kill the set amount of gang members before the city gets over run with zombies.

SP Mission : Lost by markb50k updated

News / Operation Arrowhead / Missions

(7)

markb50k submitted a new version of his SP mission "Lost". This mission was inspired by the post-apocalyptic mission called "Zero" by Clayman.

Changes since last version:

fix : mission hangs on restart after faction selection
island : Emita
faction : Lingor Gov't, Lingor Police, Lingor Mercs (ally)
faction : ARL Rebels, Drug Gangs (enemy)
tweak : new system for being sighted in towns. Removed the 'reveal' command and now the location is just added to a rolling list of locations that nearby enemy groups investigate. Gives the same repurcussions for hanging around in unfriendly villages but not a god-like penalty.
tweak : generally lowers AI skill levels to show greater variance between Privates and Colonels. This will only affect newly spawned soldiers. Any soldiers currently alive in your scenario will be running under their current skill level.

Pekkalainen has submitted this singleplayer mission, part of a mini campaign his is working on.

Quote Pekkalainen :

This is pretty much my first published mission. It's the first part of a short campaign I am developing throughout Lingor Island. This first part involves assaulting an artillery position by yourself and setting yourself in the horrific atmosphere of the civil war between the ARL and the Lingor Army.
