All APEX Compact NVG and ENVG-II NVGs only have a Generation 3 Night vision effect, what feels too weak for this kind of equipment (especially in relation to the "NV Goggles (Gen4)" from ACE). i agree, real one gives you quite a bit of athmosphere somehow. Facewear is inherited from the None class, and its config usually looks like this: Please note that facewear does not support changing textures via hiddenSelections[], so when a new facewear is defined, it contains information about its author, name, model, icon, and mass. Depends on the night vision optics, natural lighting, weather and if it uses an IR light. // Replace XX with the desired capacity value. Sniper scope for exemple. The DMS or the (designated marksman scope), is a high powered scope. This page is about Arma 3 server configuration. The example rather serves as a short list of supposedly most commonly used properties. Locally, an addon is a folder containing files like models, textures, or config files. This item will only be visible to you, admins, and anyone marked as a creator. You signed in with another tab or window. If a character is wearing a certain backpack, you might want to specify items in that backpack. :cool: NVGs and thermals definitely should be implemented in more realistic way, as the author of the thread suggests! Note: Even if this system has been designed for the FIA units, provided your config is correct, it can be used with any units. All rights reserved. Characters are configured in the cfgVehicles class, inheritance goes as follows: The last class in the second row in the table above is usually used for inheriting parameters into a new character class.

A lot more. // If a property of a subclass needs to be adjusted, the subclass has to be declared as well, inheriting properties from its original parent class. A class does not have to contain all necessary properties, there is a structure of parent and child classes, with a child class inheriting all properties from its parent class, unless a property is redefined under the child class. There's no indication of how to do simple things. This item has been removed from the community because it violates Steam Community & Content Guidelines. They cause an effect on the human player, will the ai be affected? Auto is no brighter than the best default setting without it.

Unlike the TWS, it is designed purely for use in low-light conditions and is unable to switch to a "normal" vision mode for use in daylight. Keep an eye out for the new update of A3TI, the thermal overhaul mod. Great stuffs!!! The macros which are useful for this can be defined as follows: When a new uniform, vest, or headgear is defined, it is usable in the game (unless its scope is set to 0), and even visible in Virtual Arsenal (unless it has the scopeArsenal property set to 0), but the item is nowhere to find in the editor. For previous titles, see Arma 2: Server Config File.

It is advisable to create the structure in such a way so the order of includes actually does not matter. A list of the most significant ones can be found at the bottom of the page. Facewear classes, on the contrary, contain a lot of identity types in their identityTypes[] property, together with values. That can be done via adding the following code before any of the macros is used: You can, of course, define only the macros with the amount of magazines you actually use. As said above, now it's just a green filter. Variants The NVS isn't calibrated for any specific firearm cartridge and can be employed onto all weapon platforms. Like how the hell to get onto a truck. This is clear from the names of vests base classes: Vest_Camo_Base and Vest_NoCamo_Base. In some cases, it was decided some types of headgear would be picked more often then other types, which needed to be implemented, as well. Same about thermal again, its more about "there is heat over there" than "There is a bmp-2 and 3 russian soldiers with AK's because I saw it form 2km away". Generation 4 Night vision effect for all Compact NVG and ENVG-II models and more FOV for ENVG-II. I don't think I'm alone in saying that even though NVs would be better in future, we want to see some old tech that would still exist in the future you know troops don't always get issued with the most cutting edge gear, and say NATO is in a shiddy financial situation in 20 years time its likely they aren't going to be using cutting edge tech - they could quite possibly be using 10 year old or more tech when it comes to NVGs. Due to how this works, be mindful with spaces and quotation marks when using macros. Contents 1 Design 2 Trivia 3 Gallery 4 See also 4.1 Optical sights of comparable role and configuration Design It has a magnification zoom of 5x, and uses a fixed zeroing of 300 m that cannot be adjusted.

The ARCO is the same scope as the RCO but has a green holosight instead of a red one. It could do with being a bit 'murkier' and more grainy. In the code itself, just the name of the macro with values of the parameters is written in the code, where it is replaced by everything defined in the macro with parameters taken from what is written in the brackets once the macro is used. I'm finding it extremely difficult to figure out the controls in-game. The Kahlia is a medium range scope complemented for both new and existing weapons. The macro is created for a uniform config, and then two new uniforms are configured using that macro. This fades away if you switch manually to handgun and back at least once. Autorifleman's backpack config ///. Have a question about this project? The aim of this guide is to provide a comprehensive tool containing all the necessary information needed for creating new or editing existing character and equipment classes, as well as to offer a handful of useful tips.

I have been working with Mil grade NV's for some time and ArmA's nightvision has always been too good, same goes for thermal as well. Look at these bad boys. AN/PSQ-20 can provide vision through thermal imaging even in situations where there isn't enough ambient light for the image intensifiers, thus eliminating the need for infra-red illumination (active night vision). Let's not forget NATO is po'! Because of its diverse capabilities, it is multi-role and is suited for any weapon regardless of its class. The MOS or the "Marksman optical sights", is a medium powered scope. Main point was thats from 2010.

GVAR(generation) = 4; The NVS (full name: Night Vision Scope) is a light-intensifying optical gunsight used by several BLUFOR, REDFOR and INDFOR factions in ArmA 3. Despite such technique is usually frowned upon in programming languages, where other methods can be used to achieve the same goal, there is no other way in config. Ace NVG adjustment just blinks out sometimes on its own. Well occasionally send you account related emails. // The textures for the selections defined above.
