I hope it can, its pretty damn unfortunate when it happens
 
The Stryker MGS in Chris's stream being the most notable example off the top of my head

This is not how the game is working, they are lasing, even at basically point plank range. So there is one thing that should be pointed out as maybe a feature that could be adjusted.

I hope the hell not. I'd rather pay fees to upgrade what we have even if they are full price. I don't wanna go all the way back to 2007 and wait and wait and wait.
 
 
 
 
Now there is something we can definitely agree on.
 
Vietnam would be my personal gaming Nirvana...I don't think I'd have enough pee in me if they ever announced that one...I'd have to borrow some from a neighbor.

If you want to play with ultra-modern NATO forces just go buy CMBS. I would prefer CMSF to keep the same setting and forces, just be updated to the current version of the game engine. Maybe add a few pieces of equipment that weren't in the original, like Anti-Aircraft weapons, and T-12 Antitank guns.

Will keep that oplot present.
 
Meanwhile another marginal vehicle:

You're welcome, rocketman.
 
UPDATE: Uploaded to the Repos. Should be available soon.

Awesome stuff - adds even more immersion to the game. And that is always a good thing. Thanks man

Pretty much what it says. When you add this to your game you'll get static laden radio chatter coming from all your vehicles (while sitting and moving).
 
SEE the readme for all the info.
 
There's regular and Mac versions. Links are after the pic. And if by chance there's a lot of down loads and my bandwidth runs out on Mediafire do what you guys can to help get the files to people that missed out.

Kieme CMBS BTR-4e
 
The 3-tone digital camo applies to this vehicle because it's the most advanced as the Oplot, and the only remaining UA vehicle that could display it without too much commotion. Intensive weathering for the lower parts, usual for the rest.
Enhanced normal maps included.

Thanks Mord,
 
sure splinty, I'd like to finish the UA vehicles, then it shouldn't take much to weatherize a plain version of the oplot, do you have any reference picture with a dirty oplot by any chance? With the occasion might as well try a heavier weathering.

It seems to be implied that it will be easier to create a version of Black Sea with appropriate middle eastern terrain and TO&E than to update shockforce in the technical meaning of the term.  More so since an uncon module for Black sea has been discussed as probable.  At that point you might as well do a new storyline.

However its done, or whereever the setting is, Id like to point at what MOS:96B2P said. The content in CMSF made it possible to create an enviroment and scenarios for ongoing, recent or comming conflicts in the ME. I really like to options that give and bringing that back in the latest game enging would be too cool.

I started a poll in the CMSF forum as to if you would prefer the original 2008 Syrian setting or something up to date. If you are interested in voting please go there.

Absolutely. I see no reason to hunt around for another story etc etc or change the time frame. I'd really like just to see the same game updated and perhaps some additions to the force mix. The idea originally was simply to get CMSF up to the state it could follow the model of the other x2 games to keep the engine current. Changing the scope or background story/ timeline sounds like project creep. Keep it profitable and reduce the effort, keep it simple. I think most folks who want to see CMSF 2 are looking mostly to just see it updated, not changed. Hmm sounds like an idea for a poll.

Kieme CMBS BMP-2-k UA
 
A mod for both BMP-2 and BMP-2k in UA ranks. This time I went for a quite strong weathering, because these vehicles are used by infantry too.
The base color was slightly changed to be a bit darker.
Enhanced normal maps as usual.

Vanilla for comparison:

 

+1    Me too.  CMSF force is a great game.  The setting of CMSF represents an area of the world where a lot of the current conflicts are.  This allows moders and scenario designers to expand CMSF beyond the original scope of the game and into almost any arid real world or fictional country.  An upgraded version with triggers, AA weapons etc that could be continued to be upgraded with the current CM engine version ............................ that would almost be too cool.       

Okay, I know there are a lot of these getting released lately.. but I think mine are just a bit unique, vehicle icons are handled uniquely... when selected the icons flash blue for Ukrainian and olive for US units... 
 
Note that these are BETA.. I will be making adjustments, but wanted to get something out there for those of you waiting to try my floating icons.  I was going for clarity and ease of identification with this set.
 
If you download them and try them out please give me any feedback you like... I know there are some issues: for example the FOW icons, ammo dumps get the ammo bearer icon etc.. I need to adjust those for sure.

Hello,
 
I have a scenario in need of testing. Resupply at Kharalyk. This is a CM:SF style scenario where a U.S. Stryker Platoon and Ukr Mech Platoon move to relieve a pair of Ukrainian checkpoints that are under attack from Separatists.
 
This is the first scenario I've done that has a variable ORBAT. This means there is a chance for the enemy force to be different each time you play the mission. There are a total of 4 different ORBATs.
 
Small scenario, 40 mins, early morning with light rain, Blufor only.
 
My Goals:
 
Create a Scenario that focused on combat against irregular forces. Utilize the range of modern weapons within that context. Use a wider battle space than would normally be used for a scenario of this size.  
My worries;
 
Victory Points might be trash right now (I'm not particularly great at doling these out) Some variable ORBATs my be very difficult. The open nature of the map may be too difficult for the force in use. Situation portion of the briefing:
 
The Ukrainian Army established a checkpoint on the outskirts of Kharalyk to control the movement of the Separatist “Lysenko” Battalion in August. It has recently established a second checkpoint to cover both bridges into the town. The establishment of the second checkpoint coincides with increased logistical support from Russia as the front draws nearer.

Within the last few days the “Lysenko” Battalion has made a concerted effort to isolate the two posts and has prevented resupply of the garrison. All attempts have been turned back by RPG and SPG-9 ambushes on the roads between Burty and Kharalyk. Ammunition and other supplies are getting critically low, especially at the newer and less fortified northern checkpoint.

A force consisting of a Stryker Platoon from the newly arrived NATO Expeditionary Force and a platoon of Ukrainian troops move out in the morning to break the blockade. Meanwhile the “Lysenko” Battalion prepares to assault and destroy the checkpoints to secure their control over the area.
 
If anyone is interested shoot me a PM or post here and I'll send you the scenario when I get a chance. I'll also probably post a link here when I get it uploaded to a hosting site.
 
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
