Description: A half-day addon. I was inspired by Spooners brilliant Scuba units, to create something that would be MP compatible. This is an Alpha release but could result in something a little better. It has advantages and disadvantages. Its not perfect so don't whine. I am providing the PBO and source. Things that work:
- Uses BIS default crew (Pictures and video are not standard units) - Can change depth to 4 different settings - Swim at reasonable speed - No splash on the water surface when moving - You dont loose your weapons Installation: Just extract the pbo in the ArmA\Addons folder and you should be good to go. Or (as we always recommend) use mod folders to keep your mods organized and prevent errors. Check our FAQ for a clear explanation. Included files: gnt_scuba.pbo Key: This is a signed addon, the key can be downloaded from here. Media: I used Astradeus's nice French Combat Divers in the pics and video Usage: Find it in "Men" - called "Scuba Gnat" - Place your man anywhere on the map - type in his INIT field: this moveindriver A1- Now place an EMPTY "Scuba Gnat" anywhere in the water - Name the EMPTY Scuba Gnat "A1" done! CLASS NAMES GNT_ScubaW and GNT_ScubaE (of Zodiac) Known issues: Things that don't work; - It is really a vehicle, not a man - Can't use weapons - Can't get real close to shore - If you speed up time it can jump about - no bubbles - no ability to blow stuff up - Swim animation doesn't stop - Can make man disappear into seabed - Bottles dont move with swim animation Things I dont know; - MP Compatibile (should be, there are no script tricks) - Visibility to enemy (not tested) Disclaimer: You are free to experiment and release (improved) versions, I only ask that you credit me as is approapraite for the OFP/ArmA community.

This is cool. I think the lack of bubbles is appropriate for a combat diver. The LAR-V rebreather rigs that the SEALs and Marine Recon units use are closed circuit and don't produce bubbles.
I'd love to see this "vehicle" controlled by joystick like a helo.
Since you can go underwater with this vehicle, maybe the SEAL SDV or ASDS would be another good way to go with this vehicle as a model.
Works in Arma2 :)
