The Unsung Vietnam War Mod
by
The Unsung Team
Description:
Years in the making countless hours spent editing, changing, testing, editing some more … Well you get the idea.
With the early arrival of Arma 3 our project had to be fast tracked and unfortunately, all of the intended content didn’t make it in this time around. However, with a host of new equipment, countless bug fixes & improvements this has become our most complete and stable release to date.
A series of new enhancements and features have been added Such as, our custom DSAI module which plays dynamic voices in English, Vietnamese and Viet English. Which ,gives you situational awareness of where your team mates are and more importantly where the enemy is whilst in fighting in the thick overgrowth.
Also we have included a series of ambience loops found under triggers making it the most realistic experience yet, featuring combat and environmental loops that the player can add to spice up any mission.
Want to add some ambience to your firebase or outpost camp? Or need something to listen to when your squad is gearing up in MP games? Our virtual radio station pumps out songs with over 80 tracks of commercials and music from the 60’s.All tracks play randomly so no listening session is ever the same. And when you’re out in the boonies our virtual Military Radio station plays real authentic military radio from the Vietnam war through the RTO’s radio pack both east and west sides.
Popular enhancement mods like ACE and ACRE are compatible with our mod. However, They have not been fully tested and may still have some issues. All additional enhancements and features can be found in the attached release notes, so remember to have a look for instructions how to utilise our latest enhancements.
We have also included a self-installer this time around since some community members got confused how to install the mod in our 2.0 release. Now it couldn’t be easier.
While this will be our final release for Arma 2 the team is continuing on to Arma 3. Therefore, no further development will be completed on the A2 engine. Further bug fixes will only occur if this initial release has something major affecting the mod gameplay.
Again we would like to thank the community for the ongoing support over the years and those that helped us along the way.
So hang up your desert fatigues, slap on some camo face paint, load your M16, watch out for Charlie.

Greadest Mod EVER!!!
i highly recomend but do not use with ace it causes freezes if you do
I think this is a BEAUTIFULLLLLLLLL mod, but the sound for the M16 and CAR15 is a bit too unrealistic. but other than that, great job and keep up the good work pal!
MAN!! i can make the vietnam mission that ive been plaining in my head for years thank you!
how do i get just the update? idk what the part 1, 2, 3... means
Excellent 'looking' work guys, i can only dream of downloading this atm :(
The mod doesn't work for me.
Are there any Missions made for this Mod yet??
Great work! i tip my helmet
Ok to get this mod to work heres what I did. download the unsung mod here then the patch wich contains the missing files.
Open the rar and drag out the @unsung folder into your standard arma2 installation folder (where the exe's are located)
then drag the SP_Missions INTO the allready existing folder called Missions and the MP_Missions folder into MPMissions.
Don't forget the UNS_.bikey into Keys folder.
I use arma2 launcher so i simply search for the new mod and activate it. otherwise add the usual @mod line in the shortcut.exe
hope this helps :)
If i were a girl i would have to change my panties, lmao. This is a great mod, so well put together. Can't say enough about how this mod adds to the greatest game i know of. great, great frickin' work...ty.
So good i have to comment twice. landing at LZ xray was like watching the "Lay me down", or what ever that crappy movie Mel Gibson was called. My god you guys have created an expierence the likes of which gods create. fun fun fun. soooooo good, ty sooo much:)) of coarse seeing some guy get out of a shark was kinda funny, cudos for the comedy relief there too:)
Evolution MP co-op mission for this mod is here

I've been playing this mod for two days and It is incredible... the sounds in the jungle are well done and the rain is the heaviest i've seen in 'arma 2. Best vietnam mod ever for me. Oh, and the M-60 rocks very nice sound and great for suppression fire, love it. I ejected out of a jet over the Hot zone and landed in a rainy jungle.. I laid down with my M-60 and watched for movement. Just the sounds of rain and wildlife then I looked up and saw vc movement through the leaves. I opened up with the 60 and killed the two i saw. That just brought in more and eventually i was overun. I keep feeling that i am in the movie Platoon that was one of my all time fav Vietnam movies.
I can't say enough good about this mod A+A+A+
Great job.
Just download all five parts extract each part and copy/paste all contents from the five folders into one folder and name it addons then place that folder in a folder named @something and place it in your Arma2 folder. Thanks for the Missions that are included... extract the missions in the sp or mpmissions folders depending what type they are.
