Multi Weapon Upgrade for OFP

[ntstlkr]

Cheers EV,

Haven't had a chance to fly any of the newer stuff, but thought that the rear seater were relegated to "cargo" role. Was really thinking of a RIO to handle all the offensive/defensive weapons systems on the aircraft (thought only the pilot could do that as of yet). If there is a way around that then jam on!

Although, with the turret function you can implement a PAVE PENNY or LANTIRN laser designator type affair.

NSDQ!!

Sounds sweet ntstlkr, be sure to inform us of your progress...

It does stand true that there are many applications for this code improvement, and that if it were to be implemented, it would be a great leap forward in the game technology...

however, i don't think that you are going to get much support from BIS, as they are focussing their energies on VBS1, and ths new "undisclosed" release, that we will find out more about soon...

Thanks for replying... I was starting to think it was being forgotten about, which I find amazing, considering what a difference this would make in the game.  Actually, I'm suprised that this topic has stayed so quiet.

Anyways, please be sure to let us know if anything happens (or, if it works out that way, nothing happens).

great, cannae wait for this un...
with a bit of luck they'll add ctrl, shift and alt + F1, F2 etc to enable teh command of more than 12 soldiers!
(with the exception of alt + F4)

This is important!!!

Mav... if you want to control more than 12 soldiers download the CoC mod. It's takes a bit to learn the ins and outs of it but you definitely can control more than 12 guys... many of them have you controlling more than 24 if you desired. Yes I mean by normal means too. You sort of switch command of squads temporarily. It's really great. I think you can download it in the editors depot.

[FW200]

This isnt about more than 12 people.. its about having more than 1 weapon on vehicles...

[PFC_Mike]

what is it exactly?

You're not being very specific.

[Frosty]

Wow, this sounds amazing.

PFC_Mike, this allows you to use more than one weapon similtanously on a vehicle, for example, on an M1 Abrams tank, the gunner could be firing the main cannon while the commander is working the pintle-mounted MG.
BTW this wasnt a joke, was it :-\ cos it wouldnt be very funny. Itd be kinda hard to get this to work.

They said they would never get a harrier to fly
- We've done it

They said there could never be any handguns
- We've done it

They said you could never land on a carrier
- We've done it

They said it is impossible to command more than 1 squad
- We've done it

Although I would like to be able to command 13 men, cos the USMC had 13-men squads in WW2
