    Thanks for the mention

    TG Mission-makers may find the "ShackTactical: ShackTac f (Sahrani)" component of particular interest

    Fer,
    Thanks for the mention?!!
    You are always a welcome and distinguished guest here at TG. If it were not for the work you and the BAS crew have done, we would not see most of the missions around the ArmA community as we do today.

    Hmmm, sounds pretty shady. Do I have to enter my credit card number to use Bas-f?

    No, your social security number will work fine.

    Thanks! That's extremely kind of you. The funny thing is this: Outside of ShackTac, I have no idea how popular BAS f actually is. Everytime we release a new build, we get zero feedback on the BI forums or news sites.

    Looking at the stats for the BAS website in March, I can see that ~250 downloads of BAS f v1-1 were made (curiously, we also saw ~160 downloads of v1-0-8 as well), so somebody has to be using it, LOL.

    Used it as well and found it very helpful, still no walk in the park, but at least a much better way to start than figuring everything out by yourself. Never really figured out how to do a proper mission ending though, kinda got tired of fiddling around with script and stuff.

    Exclamation Re: Bas-f 1.1

    If you guys are not tracking all the awesome update for this, you are wrong!!! Fer has put together a stellar update as usual. He is now up to 1-4-1. it includes all the ACE islands and some really neat scripting by a lot of folks.

    Now, that being said. I promised him some feed back on what people like about the template. Go ahead and comment on what is working and what might be improved on. And along the way, make sure you thank him for all his hard work!!! It making all of lives easier having templates like this...
