3 Commando Brigade

I follow SMA too, I like their stuff, but it's basically duplication for us... Remember our biggest(!) issue at the moment I feel is perceived Mod count/size.

The models used in the 3CB Weapon packs are constantly under review. If we can get permissions to use higher quality models from modders in the community, we will use them where available. We are already in the process of replacing the Arma 2 ports for the L115a3 rifle and the L110a1 and L110a2 LMG with models we received from Toadie (HLC). They should be included in the next update, along with a UKSF L119a1.

As for the overall mod size, it is hoped that in the future we will be able to remove the Massi packs (weapons, factions, vehicles) and Leights Opfor packs when we release our own Opfor pack. It's all on the 'to do' list. 

A nice @alive update today - now puts all AI on the Headless Client so we might see some performance gains.
Also we have removed the Celle map and mbg_buildings from the public repo as they weren't good for fps. Now 42 mods.

Updated Hearts and Minds

Feedback, as always, is welcomed in this thread.

Wind is *very* broken on Taki currently, keeps swapping between roughly North and South every 30s-1m, and is blowing extremely fast the entire time. Hitting stuff at 400m is problematic to the extreme.

Thanks Nick, I'll investigate late tonight.

I played a bit Hearts & Minds in the last days and here are some of my thoughts. They are pretty much a utopia, but maybe some good ideas can come out of it.

Right now there is a good chance that you patrol areas and nothing is happening and that there is also not much to do. I would like the idea that when that a lot of villages have more placed village elders and when you talk to them about certain things, it could create something like minor tasks for the guys.



There could be a good chance that when you talk to him about let's say "Seen any insurgents around here?" that it will actually create a a little task in the nearby area and it could maybe spawn a camp or maybe just a patrol in the nearby area with a rough markers. Something like that could certainly give players a bit more direction and could make checking out smaller villages and not just known major hot-spots in the north more fun.


Oh and I have not encountered a single IED lately. So maybe the number could be raised a bit.

MeFirst... you need to post that here really as a feature request

Suggested as a feature on their github.
