L115A3
by
P:UKF Team
Description:
This weapon model was created by a very talented chap called 'OOPz', who approached UKF to see if it would be possible for us to help realise his ambition of recreating this magnificent rifle in ArmA 2. Collectively, OOPz and UKF have spent the past couple of months working on the model, textures and materials, as well as configuring the addon, to reflect the capabilities of the real rifle as close as we possibly can.
You can seen how the model has progressed at
OOPz's website, along with a number of his other projects.
This addon contains six variants of the rifle, in three different colour schemes, each with suppressed and unsuppressed versions. It features a reticle pattern for the rifle's Schmidt & Bender 5-25X56 scope, that is not only authentic to the one used by British Forces, but can also be used to accurately estimate the distance to targets in ArmA 2. Used in conjunction with the provided ballistics tables for ACE 2 or GMJ Sight Adjustment systems, the addon can deliver accurate fire out to 1500m and beyond. With practise, maybe you'll be able to match Corporal of Horse Craig Harrison's spectacular, record-breaking
2475 meter shotwith the rifle.
The addon also incorporates a script to fold and deploy the weapon's bipod by pressing the 'H-key'. These scripts were provided by norrin, and will feature prominently in the future UKF Weapons pack, as they do in the AAW weapon pack where they originated.

Known bugs and issues:
Currently, the weapon does not have a proper bolt-cycling animation. The UKF dev team tried very hard to add one with the kind assistance of TeRp, but the results were unsatisfactory.
If anybody could assist in writing a model.cfg that will result in a nice, smooth bolt action we would gladly accept your help.

Just been trying this out and I think its my favourite weapon add-on to date, nice work!
Hi.
This is amazing, a must for any sniper, you have really done this sniper rifle justice with 6 options to pick from woodland and silenced desert and silenced standard and silenced not to forget the deployable bi-pod that actually helps stabilizing your shot, i have just been on a multi mission shooting targets up to 1010m away with ease after that you cannot see the targets and the rifle is good for plenty more. I also would like to thank you for including a pdf format on how to actually use the scope properly, using the mil dots for acurate shots, using the horizon bar at the bottom to quick guage a distance. it is truley amazing and a real must, it is my one and only sniper rifle now i use this on every mission i can and i take the rifle everywere :D
VAMPY
Definitely my favorite sniper rifle. Easy to shoot, works well with OA (but limited to adjustment of 800 meters), easy to shoot out to 1000 meters +, and beautiful to look at. Seems a crime to cover this beauty up with the camo tape, but the job you all have done is quite outstanding.
The sound is addicting too. When zoomed in, you get a little of the supersonic crack which is startling. When in 3rd person, you get a great poof sound. I'm using it with CSM, so don't know if it's been modified or not, but it's amazing.
I took a bunch of screenies with your nice handiwork. They are in SNIPER here.
simply amazing......... thank for the job ;)
Definately the best sniper rifle addon so far. It looks right, it fells right, it shoots right. The L115A3 is probably "the best" bolt action sniper rifle out there and you ported this killer into arma2.
5/5
hey its a good sniper but im having trouble getting it to work on mulitplayer on OA like it works for me on combined ops, but it wint let the mission launch if i add the snipers in.
"With practise, maybe you'll be able to match Corporal of Horse Craig Harrison's spectacular, record-breaking 2475 meter shotwith the rifle." thanks to OOPz and P:UKF ,well there you go http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S25GeeTIU10
Awesome mod, thanks
Excellent work this even surpasses the quality of BIS' work, however I have a smaill glitch where the rifles are all zeroed at 300m not the 500m that they are supposed to be at. I am using Ace 2 OA + A2 patched to the latest versions.
Hey looks great! but how do i get it in-game? please reply thanks! :)
okay i have figured it out :) but when i add the magazines it dosen't apper when i launch the mission?
It's a great mod, but can any of you guys tell me how to use its zoom? It does seem to work for me. The right mouse button and + - work for the M107 but not for the L115A3. Please help
Love the rifle, but one small problem. There is no SD ammo? Using the silenced variant is useless, unless you are 600 meters+ away, they know exactly where you are even with a suppressor. I really want a fix for this.
Wonderful!!! Keep it up OOPz & P:UKF!
