Bulldog APC Variants

Just wondering if there were any plans to implement a mortar variant of the Bulldog APC? Amongst other things bonuses, I think it could help make mortar support more mobile which would be quite useful on the public server, where you tend to be all over the map. I'm guessing it would create a dependency on the ACE mortar system though, that's if it's even possible to do?

What do you think?

You got a model for us? Or you prepared to learn how to model to make it? Or you prepared to config the code or take on some of the other jobs that’s we have mid process that we have been working on for months even years... there’s lots we would love to do that we talk about amongst the modding team. We however are few and all have busy real lives some of us (not me) run this community and have made it survive when it could easily have dissolved they also play and lead sections and troop. They also run missions and Zeus. So asking both here and on discord will just get the best Nemiuk reaction out of us [emoji6]

Edit: there’s also a bigger issue in that the scale of the model is to big if you put a mortar in the back it doesn’t fit. And to correct that is a huge amount of work that was decided didn’t justify the end result in delaying release.

That was the initial plan. However, the person who did most of the work on the Bulldog has since sadly taken a break from modding. Therefore there are no current plans to add in the variant at this stage. It may happen, but it will require altering the interior of the vehicle.

Ouch Andy. That seemed a bit harsh. It was only a question...(has anyone done the 4 tonne trucks for me yet?) :p

Andy, 

My intention wasn't to pester, the only reason I posted on here as well is because I noticed an announcement on the channel that said that discord channel was supposed to be for issues not suggestions, so I thought it was better placed here. I appreciate you taking the time to get back to me, even if it was maybe a more heated response than I expected! :shock:

I fully expected the answer to be along the lines of "It's not a priority" or "we tried but it didn't really work" but I thought I'd ask the question anyway just in case something was in the pipeline. 

I don't know anything about modelling, if it requires any kind of artistic talent then I'm afraid I'd be as useful as tits on a fish, but I am learning Python and some C# as part of my new job. I'm not sure what language scripts for arma are written in but if that's of any use to you, when I actually know what I'm doing then I would like to get involved.

I'll finish out by saying that I'm grateful for the work the 3CB mod team has done as using the BAF mods is by far my favourite way to play arma, and the quality of the mods really stands out above a lot of others. I will likely make suggestions and comments in future but please don't take this as me expecting that they will ever even be developed, I just like to share ideas sometimes.

Thanks again for your hard work and I'm sorry for the lengthy post.

Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

I’m sorry my response was very harsh. What I’d say is that if you were serious about getting involved then just jump in and help out. I’ve learnt everything from scratch I couldn’t code before hand neither could I model or make animations. Same goes with the majority of the rest of us.

Before you all say it, i did not hack Andy's account to make that response

I am nice.
