Now anyways, this model has been lying around for some time and since its been a very low priory object has not been done, thou I thought I would give it a blast

Dunno for sure who did the model as it was done a long long time ago, thou I think it was Wybl thou dont quote me on that

took about three days work I think but I recon its turned out really nice. Done the skin with bump and spec maps, aswell as the LODs, COL meshes and the import

Katarn's going to have a little play with it to fix a small problem with the idle animation and to try and get that little bit of hand to stop sticking though the handle

Hope you like it, my first weapon skin

Also you can see the knife in action (sorta

) here with [R-DEV]Matrox and Thunder

u forgot to add the post about the new suprresions effects changes

**Ghost Dog** · 03-23-2008, 11:44 AM

I have yet to download the new patch and try out the suppression effects as I 've been in Austria for a week but here 's an update from the dev journal:

1. Only happens with 5.56 and higher calibre weapons

So you can all stop bitching about pistols/smg's giving off the effect

Confirmed for 0.8

2. Only "activates" after the round has travelled 10-20m

Confirmed for 0.8

So you can all stop bitching about CQB being a little bit frustrating

3. Is triggered when bullets go overhead

Only one I'm not too sure about. With a bit of luck perhaps

WIP

A 7.62x51mm NATO bolt-action sniper rifle with a 5-round rotary magazine. Extremely accurate and should be a tough competitor to the L115A1 and M40.

**gijoe** · 03-27-2008, 06:07 PM

Wow omg that is a nice sniper! No more crappy L96A1. That sniper we have now blows, i was about 200 meters infront of some guy and he was running at me, straight on, i aimed for his torso and shot......the bullet landed like 2 feet to his left.

BTW just kicking around the community modding forums and in the Canadian forces area...WOW great models of several guns and car and planes!

This is just a little treat that is being prototyped by the miltary, its pretty sweet....Would stop every other vehicle in its tracks.

Here 's one for all us flyboys:

Myself and a few other Dev/Cons have been working over the past few months with converting the OPK, German Tornado IDS into a RAF Tornado GR4, aswell as tweaking its performance to be like the other jets in PR, which is still in progress

Thou they are more or less the same aircraft, there is a few differences thou most of them being software and bits under the skin that you cant see, there is a few small difference like the TIALD (Thermal Imaging Airborne Laser Designator) pod, the Sky Shadow-2 electronic countermeasures pod and a few other small things, which have been modeled, UVed, imported and attached by myself.
The skin tweaks have been done by [R-CON]Geze which has been doing a really nice job on lots of our skin tweaks as to date

The new Paveway II LGB (Laser Guided Bomb) and Brimstone Air to Surface AT Missile where modeled and skinned by [R-DEV]Stigger (which you can also see on his Harrier renders) and Imported by myself.

Thanks for OPK to let us use there excellent model which you can see more of here: Operation Peacekeeper - A Battlefield 2 Modification : Tornado IDS - strike aircraft

This is still WIP with lots of fixes still to be done but its in a good state now to show to you guys, hope you like it :mrgreen:

This model looks simply amazing and I love the sweep back wings... and look at the size of those bombs

.

PS: I will fix those 3 screens when Rhino fixes them at the PR site.

Early screens of the upcoming map Devils Tower.

Just a WIP preview, more pictures and a very interesting video coming soon

Proof of concept screeshot

I just hope the EXTENSIVE view distances work better with hills than Kashan does, but I doubt it.

Wow, there seem to be a lot of new maps.

From what I heard, there may be +-30 new maps in 0.8, it 's the main focus of the next version

.

Here 's something else I found on Youtube:

Kashan Desert with snow

+30 maps but only 5 of them will be playable aka won't crash the server. JK

kilroy0097 · 04-02-2008, 11:50 AM

They might release another mini-patch before 0.8 to tweak with some of the mechanics of things. Otherwise I foresee a few tweaks along with all those maps in the next version 0.8.

Sabre_Tooth_Tigger · 04-02-2008, 03:34 PM

The wings move?!

Looks awesome, its incredible the amount of work done by everyone and 30 maps sounds unbelievable.
I'd like that very much so you could almost forget what is around the next corner, more dynamic and 'realtime' Is it still true that long map lists can make a server unstable though

**TheSkudDestroyer** · 04-02-2008, 05:03 PM

So...

The question keeps on coming up...

What do new jets add to gameplay?

Sabre_Tooth_Tigger · 04-02-2008, 05:24 PM

Jets are top of the food chain so variety there can only be a good thing for new gameplay. I presume this is not an actual 2 player model like you get in bf2

**SamO** · 04-02-2008, 07:57 PM

Yay, another map we can't play.
