Yeah one of the admins was talking about the lowering user base, and so on, so I think that they're as said, losing to Discord and so on, or other forums. The Arma series area is dead except for my posting, and nobody comments other than me, but I also don't use SimHQ for anything but to post updates for my mods. I think if they updated the site and produced more content, maybe they could get more people. I'm on Mudspike and it doesn't seem like a lot of people either, but that's how it goes I guess. So far CA has attracted some people (Erik could obviously tell you the stats and such, and so on) of this site, but I think that we're fine with the user base so far.

Okay I'm pretty much done to my satisfaction with the glass damage system. I had to really work on the Ka-145 and AH-96, had some teething issues with the models and config, but that's pretty much done. I don't think I have to look over the model.cfg since that was setup, so things are going to look good for Sunday. I need to do some of the other helis, but a check of the Kiowa, and maybe need to stay off of that one, though I'd like to do some of the other helos, like the AH-1Z shouldn't be too much of an issue, but I can do that later.

The biggest thing is that modellers who sell of their models usually want it in some format that's hard to pirate. These days you never know, but that's something that a modeling company told me years ago. I mean you take a chance with models these days, whether or not their already ripped, but if it's royalty-free then you "should" be okay with exporting it to a format for a game. Though I'll just state that piracy has a zero-tolerance policy on this site, but if you're legit, then no problems with bringing it into the game.

The fact that he wants war is because his feelings got hurt because he didn't (nor was able to) win an actual Nobel Prize. The fact that he got it secondhand is reason enough to know that he's completely lost his marbles.

Well CA seems to be winning it unless Erik decides to move to Discord or something like that.

Right now all I have to do with the glass system is the AH-96 and Ka-145. Right now I'm not planning on adding much, given that a lot had to be fixed in this build. I will backup the files but more or less they're safe. I think it was good I pushed for the glass rework, since it showed that a lot of helicopters were just not complete, and I always in the military in my job did terrain sketches, and they were never complete, so that's my mentality with these modss, well most of them anyway, so there's that.

That's a good way to look at it, given the amount of categories and such, so yeah I'll pace myself and such then.

Well I seem to have misjudged the time it'll take to redo the helicopters. As mentioned I'm fixing A lot of stuff that was not finished or set properly. So when you game it after this Sunday some things will be different for players given changes to the View Geometry. Seems a lot of hidden doors and stuff, so taking fire will be more interesting now for the helicopters. But I should be able to get the fixes out Sunday, as when you use the same general model, it makes copying and pasting easier, and speeds things up, so by the end of the week I should be done with the helicopters, most of them anyway, and we'll go from there.

Yeah looks like Saturday I can work on the SF2 section. I got the SF2 complete, so I'll be able to sequester the mods into one install, then delete it and such whenever I get done. This won't be a just one day operation though.

Well I have to admit a lot of issues are being squashed with models. Going over them this time is yielding some issues. So, on Sunday, those who use my helicopters in the Helicopter Pack can get some good use out of the revamped and fixed helicopters. I've gone over the MH-60s (at least the SOAR ones) and need to do the three Navy ones, and I'll be done with that folder. I have to look at the other helicopters too, as they need to be updated and tweaked with the glass system, which of course said will take time to fully go over. But the fact that there are issues shows that a one-person show isn't always the best either.

Yeesh that's a LOT of screenies to take though, I mean this isn't a two person job, more like a team needs to do it rather than just "one or two". That and I'm limited to SF2 as well. Somebody needs to have SF1 to do that side of the Downloads.

Nice, it always helps. I've been staring at Arma 3 models most of the day, getting them setup for damage effects, and I got a lot to go through...

I've been spending some time today (and since it's a holiday), tomorrow with the glass setup. It's just tedious, and learning that just to roll with the helicopter and set it up as is because it's not uniform on the models. Overall it'll take some time, so updates will be what they are with the glass issue. I predict a couple to three weeks or so to get all of them done. Also on the horizon is another ammunition mod, this time some 7.62mm stuff, that works out pretty good with the rounds, and have used them in the past with great success on pub servers, just whomping CSAT, or the rare AAF. But I'll upload that during the week. Again it's a config only mod, using the Mazazine Wells system to just load into your Mk18 ABR to have something better to mess with than the standard BIS stuff.

Fixed the Formation Lights. I wasn't using a BIS RVMAT, and now the Formation Lights on the helos work as intended, so I can scratch that one off. Also I found an error with the AH-96, I didn't add a correct config entry, so it'll give an error (which isn't game breaking) that will not show up next Sunday. Already: - Flanker562 Helicopter Pack - Flanker562 Weapon Pack All for next Sunday
