Desert Storm Update

[+Dave 2,322]

Ok with Deuces turning over the terrain to JSF Aggie he was able to finish (well almost finished, its getting there) it with his help. Wrench, The, has done target placement. Here is a sample. Also Dels has joined the team so we will get a B-52G.

Ooo, look, choppers to pop!

 

 

Looking very nice, and I do dig the Hawk battery setup.

 

Gotta get a few of those into WoI, I had a totally unhindered pair of MiGs in a campaign mission today.

 

But that is a whole `nother can o' worms, I shall not tangent.

 

[Hawk MMS 0]

This looks great. Looking forward to it. Love the HAWKS. between this one and the formosa screen shot the other day, all involved have made some very nice add ons. A port and full on bases, what fun.

Another 5-minutes mod... why should I bother downloading Dave?

 

j/k

 

Is "march 2008" a clue not only to release date of it, but also patches for older sims? You know something, don't you?

No it was the date of the update. I don't a clue when the patches are coming out.

You all can thank Nick Bell for the HAWK battery format...I took it right from his NATO defense mod.

 

You get close to those Abrams, and you'll hear the turbines spinning over, too

 

This is going to be one of those maps where you'll have to spend hours wandering around in the 'free camera mode', just to see all the sights.....

 

Spectre: I'm working on it...right after I finish SoCal

Blame C5, as it has stuck now.

[+ST0RM 145]

Just missing an MH-53J PaveLow/AH-64 Apache combo to start the war. That looks awesome! Nice work to all.

The zipper?

[+Stary 2,427]

Any info about OpFor planes? Anything there flyable?

 

I'm just worried that air war would last four days...

 

Heh, I love CAS in these sims anyway

Going to be all flown from the Allied side.

[JediMaster 451]

This is being done for post-patch/WOI, correct? As far as the weapons and all, ergo the mod will not work with the non-WOI sims as they stand now?

[+Jarhead1 27]

CA_Stary, when its released I am gonna use it as a base for a mod of it so u CAN fly on the Iraqi side, so dont worry. Look here http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showt...24664&st=20

[+Stary 2,427]

Good news Jarhead- I'm in an "agains all odds" mood

[+Jarhead1 27]

So am i dude

[Murphy'S 15]

Going to be all flown from the Allied side.

 

mmhhh no mirages on the iraqi side?

 

or do you mean just in campaign?

[topcat II 6]

Everything looks sooooo Good Thank You All!!!

[Emp_Palpatine 501]

or do you mean just in campaign?

Yes, there were, but I guess that mean "only blue side is flyable".

BTW, I hope french air force jaguar, mirage F1 and 2000 will be there. :yes:

And Free kuwait air force too.

[+JSF_Aggie 1,291]

This will be made as accurate as possible with regards to aircraft: types, quantities, squadrons, etc.

 

There will be two versions of the campaign included. One will be as historical as possible, based on the limits of the game engine. The second, is a what-if version, were Iraq resists as much as possible.

 

It will be for WOE only, since we're using several things that only come stock with this game. It will not be released until after the patch.

 

It will be released in two phases. The first will be with a map the same size as the existing DS map. This requires me to place most squadrons at somewhere other than their actual base. This first version will more than likely be missing a few aircraft types.

 

The second will have a map that is double the size of the current map. This will allow me to station every squadron at it's actual base, less the bombers that were located way out of theater. Hopefully by this point, all the aircraft needed will have been released for WOE.

 

The current plan is to only make the Allied side flyable.

[Emp_Palpatine 501]

So, belgian Mirage V will be there too?

[HrntFixr 4]

Well we have a few surprises up our sleaves!

(NO, DON'T ASK WHAT!!!) I'll delete your post

 

 

You will see a load of previously unreleased skins and other tidbits here and there.

It's taken thousands of hours, boocoo frustrated emails/PM's and FTP set backs, but it's getting there!

[+littlesmoke 64]

I'm sooo looking forward to this. For all those who've put so much hard work into it - thanks in advance!

[+Spectre_USA 7]

So, like, anyone got any idea about the surprises?

 

 

Hovercrafts?

 

Eels?

 

Sharks with frickin' laser beams?

 

OK, I won't gie up my night job on this help desk to become a comedian, OK?
