Writing this post is not easy. But it has to be done some day and so, here we go: I was running this giant Modification as a ‘one man army’ project for quite some years now. Doing so made a
Time to say good-bye
Photo from Petrovice/Nogova
Earlier today some unknown guy sent me this photo, apparently taken in Petrovice. The quality is real bad and blurry. Earlier an unknown person sent me this photo, which was apparently taken in Petrovice. The quality is really bad and
CWR² Weapons and Characters Update
I today updated Characters to v1.62 and Weapons to v1.63. In Characters I only added a (hidden) class name which caused an error with the “Last War” Mission package. In Weapons I have reverted the bullet effect sounds to ArmA2
CWR² Weapons v1.62 BETA
Recently some people reported issues with the sound settings in v1.6 (and thus in v1.5). In this BETA build of the weapon config, I replaced all sound effects (like impacts, whizzling etc) with the default ones from ArmA2.I have not
West German Army Update
As we all know, the NVA is operating Hind gunships when invading the west – while the Bundeswehr must rely on its allies when it comes to tank hunting. Not anymore it seems. With this new toy, they don’t have
SpN Recce Picture
This was given to me, saying it was taken by a SpN recon team recently. Does anyone have a clue what it could be?
Regarding the recent website ‘hack’
Some days ago, some clown ‘hacked’ this site (or better the WordPress behind it) and replaced the ‘Fallen Warriors post’ with some Peshmerga bullsh*t. I removed the post and today recovered the original post. Just mentioned so no one wonders
RIP Paul ‘Bushlurker’ Pelosi
It makes me sad to post this but I was told that over the weekend, the good guy we know as Bushlurker passed away. Paul was a legend when it comes to terrains in the Armaverse. If Paul didn’t know
Ia Trang Terrain
Okay, I have one more thing – last one now. This is the “Ia Trang” Terrain from the Nam Pack 2 originally made by Ebud, Bibmi, Eviscerator and SelectThis for Operation Flashpoint. I had the idea to recreate it for
In the past days I had to deal with several comments, emails or private messages with ‘bug reports’ like in below samples:
– SA-13 bugs with driver hatch
– Bugs with DShK on tanks
– Bugs with hands on weapons
– Bugs with GP-25 view on AK’s
– Bugs with US boat (hands etc)
Please,fix!

“this update totally broke the game for me. everything was fine before this update, but once i installed it every mission broke. i cant start anything because it gives me an error about some russian soldier helmet texture and then “no entry .modelOptics”. please delete this update from the website. thanks!”
Both examples are completely pointless. They doesn’t help anything with identifying problems, let alone solving them. The first at least was pointing me to some of the issues.
Since I work alone on this giant Mod, and my time and motivation is very limited nowadays I don’t have nerves do deal with bored to death children or people not interested in providing detailed information, or even worse people trying to badmouth the Mod cause they’re jealous.
So from this day, I only accept detailed bug reports in which you exactly describe what the problem is, where it happened and/or what you expected to happen.
If CWR² v1.02 is breaking your mission (which it shouldn’t since no classes has been changed), or If you get an on-screen error message about something missing:
Provide the rpt file and mission you were playing at the time the error occured.
Bug reports like in the two above examples, or without rpt file/mission are simply ignored by me now. Or in case of example #2 are considered spam and are dealt with accordingly.
Stop wasting my little free time, thanks!
In the past 15 years I’ve seen more awesome WIP missions than you probably will ever see, so there’s no need to be afraid about sending me your top-secret mission. 😉
