Swedish Forces Pack

[tame cargo]

A mod that never grows old or tired since the early days of Operation Flashpoint. With Reforger we are proudly flushing everything we done and starting from scratch with an ambition of quality worthy of the new engine. First releases are out and more content is on its way.

[heavy knot]

much love!

[hard pulsar]

Nice. Can't wait to check it out. Do you have a list of anything planned? This looks incredible already.

[tame cargo]

No roadmap list for long term, we got plenty of stuff in the pipe-line however. For the next release focus we will be on the Carl Gustaf AT launcher (with HEAT, HE, Smoke and Illum rounds) and the Tgb40 (The truck on the second image, in several variants more pics soon). After that I guess will be our "bolt-action" patch, with two sniper rifles (Artic Warfare, and the Ag90, known as the Barrett M82 / M107) as well as an old 1896 bolt action rifle that was still in use among the homeguard units in the 90's. Two AT mines are ready to go, but waiting for BIS to release theirs.

[vital oar]

Test

[hard pulsar]

@tame cargo nice. If we get a script will we see swedish exports of the leopard or is that something for arma 4? Im excited!

[fair dawn]

Nice! 😉

[devout oracle]

Depends how far back in time you guys wanna go but a Centurion would be 👌

Most likely for A4 but a man can dream 😅

Love that truck btw 🙂

[hard pulsar]

@devout oracle We would need a British centurion first though!

[slender cobalt]

Yes! The model is allready done: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/651517824665255936/651523323196473356/screenshot000.png

Strv121

[odd ivy]

Wait if tracks ever be possible then would we see the Leo 4 in arma reforger?

[stark nova]

whats a leo 4? a 2A4?

[odd ivy]

Yeah, Lol I meant to put 2a4

[tame cargo]

Next patch is around the corner, some minor fixes but the highlight is the addition of the Granatgevär modell 48 (GRG m/48) which literally means Grenaderifle , more commonly known as the Carl Gustaf. The development and design started 1946 and as the name indicates it was adopted in the armed forces 1948. For Reforger there is a 4 different ammunition's available , HEAT, HE, Smoke and illumination rounds. Model & textures by @slender cobalt

[fair dawn]

Oh NICE it's already out! 👍

[tame cargo]

The FIM-43 Redeye portable anti-aircraft missile system was adopted in Sweden under designation "RBS 69", (Robotsystem 69 in Swedish, which actually needs no translation). Model is completed by Megadeth and awaits textures before we can implement it in Roforger to protect us from the nasty Mi24 by @elder creek 😉

[elder creek]

AA!

[hybrid bluff]

Do you guys plan on creating other factions like East Germany? Or is it just Sweden? The mod is amazing btw.

[fair dawn]

Yeah this rly is such an unique mod.
I rly love the camo on the helmet.
Very well done!

[tame cargo]

Just Sweden... There is enough of unique stuff for us to keep working for decades. Leave the "enemy" to other mods

[stark nova]

Looks cash money

[slender cobalt]

Some explosives

Tändapparat 4 (Firing device 4): https://i.imgur.com/ZyuMBAL.png https://i.imgur.com/AW3vqOI.png

[unreal merlin]

Its an old bakelite telephone…

[unreal merlin]

No its a telephone, not a radio

[slender cobalt]

Can you actually be that gullible?

[slender cobalt]

Even worse then before.

It's called a

"Tändapparat 4 (Firing device 4)"

What does that mean to you?

[viral otter]

A little behind-the-scenes anim for the GRG m/48

[devout oracle]

Damn it looks great !

[heavy knot]

google might help out. this channel however isn’t google

[tame cargo]

Just wanted to take the opportunity to also say that the team is always looking for people with skills of any kind. Sounds, models, textures but in this case also coders that want to help with making bombs / remote detonated and other weapons not already implemented by BIS

[viral otter]

Some reload-animations from SFP, the PSG90 (sniper rifle) is very WIP however. 😄

[fossil pumice]

That sniper be looking fine 😮‍💨

[cold reef]

I like that the scrim is visible in first person

[devout oracle]

Those look great !

[slender cobalt]

Carl Gustav M/86 is ready for texture and paint!

[fringe anvil]

@loud spade

[raw imp]

The mod looks amazing. Those custom animations for all the weapons have to be some of the best ones I’ve seen. Hands down. Especially that Carl gustov. You guys hands down are paving the road for the future of arma. Keep up the good work.

[viral otter]

Updated KSP58 animation coming soon (thanks @dim merlin for the help!)

[lilac grotto]

Any idea when the truck is go be released

[viral otter]

Soon! (somewhere between 1 to 100 days) 😅
There are some adjustments needed but it all comes down to using our sparetime to prep it for a release.

[lilac grotto]

Ik this might be a stupid question but would u possibly be able to put the G3 and the AT4 in a separate mods or do you plan to

The reason I ask is there a unit in my community witch is looking a G3 but on it own

[viral otter]

I understand, but no it will remain in the Swedish Forces package.

[lilac grotto]

Copy that thanks for the for the feedback back 😊

[slender cobalt]

Carl Gustaf M/86 is comming along nicely: https://i.imgur.com/hYkbs1V.png

[viral otter]

WIP-animation for getting inside the TGB40 🙂

[devout oracle]

Looks great 👍

[drowsy nimbus]

Question, will this a separate pack for like vehicles or is it just gonna be included with the SFP mod

[viral otter]

No separate packs are planned.

[steep flower]

I shot with that thing in IRL gives me flashbacks

[slender cobalt]

Pansarskott M/68 "Miniman" is ready for implementation. It´s the precursor to Pansarskott M/86 (AT4)

[lilac grotto]

I'm so hyped for the truck

[unreal merlin]

I usually don’t comment on when stuff is released but I can say that it’s close, we are talking about a day or two if all goes well! #

[upper beacon]

@unreal merlin Oh yeah! This is my favourite mod! Will it just be the truck or all the kit you've been showcasing? Amazing work lads!

[unreal merlin]

Just the truck for now!

[upper beacon]

Ah right. Stilllooks 👌

[lilac grotto]

I can't wait for the update

[tame cargo]

New patch released tonight, includes the Scania all-terrain truck, Tgb 40. Automatic to be easy to drive for conscripts (also means this truck starts quickly....).Indicator lights for turning left/right will also improve the safety on the public roads as well as the position lights. Safety first, important in Sweden 😉 Around 10 different versions, with transport, fuel, covered and the cabin that was primarily used for when the Tgb40 was driving the artillery + its gun crew.
Also comes with a conflict mode for the Swedish forces on Aarland, and updated anims on some of the weapons.

[wheat cradle]

The new truck seems to roll over way to easily

[tame cargo]

noted, will check

[tidal walrus]

hey there, great work 🙂 Sorry for nitpicking, but I've found a couple of things that need a bit of polish

The Trucks driveshaft is rotating around the the axle 😄

If you try to get in from the trunk, it puts you in between the seats

also the AK4's sight could be a bit sharper 😄

apart from these, its a very great mod, thank you for spending your time developing it 🙂

[slender cobalt]

We will take a look, thanks for the feedback

WIP AK5 C

WIP AK4 B

WIP AK4 C

WIP AK4 D + Kikarsikte 09 (Scope 09)

WIP AK4 C + M203

[devout oracle]

Oh yes 😎

[tame cargo]

This also due to your settings… i mean we could probably do something but if you want a quick fix you can change your near blur settings

[tidal walrus]

Roger that, thanks 🙂

[blissful meadow]

will the grip be as a attachment or just part of the weapon? also, its very far back

[unreal merlin]

I’m not use if it will be separate or not, it’s only used on the AK5 C so there is no point in having it separate. There will be two versions available in the editor but that will be customized with a prefab.

I disagree that the position is wrong, generally when I look at pictures it’s way back. In the end it all comes down to the preferences of the shooter.

[soft bane]

I am getting this texture issue on the G3. I don't know if it is my end or the mod.

[tame cargo]

Looks like a missing texture, which seems strange but I will check right now

[violet osprey]

How big is this mod?

[fossil cargo]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[violet osprey]

And it has both a Carl Gustav and an FN MAG?

[tame cargo]

FN MAG, FN FNC, HK G3

At4 and Carl Gustav .. and much more

[tame cargo]

New patch, new content. Introducing the anti-tank mines "Strvm 5" and "Strvm 6", which means Stridsvagnsmina (Tank mine literally) .
The Strvm 5 is the standard mine, with 10 kg TNT and 0.5 kg "plastic case", making it impossible to find with mine (metal) detector. In the Swedish armed forces it comes with a varity of fuzes, here we have included the pressure fuze which requires more than 200 kg to detonate.
The Strvm 6 is a slightly lighter mine at 8 kg, but comes with a magnetic fuze, designed not to go off from normal counter mine measures such as pressure or movement, also means if a tank drives over it without hitting it with its tracks, it will still detonate.
From a gameplay perspective, pick the mines up in a backpack, drop them from the inventory screen and then select Arm when you look at the mine. Only way to disable them is to fire on them.

[steep flower]

Is this mod already downloadable?

[runic oxide]

Yes

[wispy axle]

Nice, thanks for all the updates!

[slender cobalt]

Teaser for the new AK5 (WIP)

[quartz oyster]

Hello, I recently tried this mod. But strangely I've found out that all the rocket launchers do almost no damage at all, is this a bug?

Im arount the 10th HEAT missile to a BTR and thing still doing fine

[unreal merlin]

Are you using any other mods? We will look into it but I have not experienced anything

[quartz oyster]

Could be maybe the RHS... Need to try without it

[slender cobalt]

The AT4 use the exact same warhead as the RPG7 i think so it really should not be any difference

Does the RPG7 behave the same way when you try?

[shrewd sentinel]

Does anyone know if this mad was effected by the new major update?

[unreal merlin]

No but we did implement some minor fixes for the mines where the custom script was removed in favour of the official mines that was released in the update.

[shrewd sentinel]

Ah ok good to know idk if it was recently fixed tho but I was messing with it in Private GM and found that the reload animation for just the basic rifle not the ak 5 the other one, but when reloading the gun does not actually reload and the reload animations seem to have no sound and some are off like the LMG that comes with this mod

[unreal merlin]

We will have a looksie

[dense spire]

It appears so, just checked it out and the Swedish forces arsenal is empty; along with the ammo box, weapons box etc….

[shrewd sentinel]

Yep

It was doing the same with a lot of other mods like the modern us mod and others

[dense spire]

Also it appears the vehicle animations are possibly messed up, I tried getting in the truck and it had me stand up in all the seats.

[unreal merlin]

Ok, we have work to do 🙂 thanks for the feedback

[lilac grotto]

Will you guys be adding m90 camo?

[unreal merlin]

For what item?

[lilac grotto]

Clothes

[tame cargo]

Thanks, at first sfp didn’t even start. I did a quick fix so it didn’t broke the game so to say. Will try look into arsenal and vehicle tonight.

[tame cargo]

Yes definitely, but don’t ask when..

[tame cargo]

There is of course more to do as Reforger evolves and the game changes mods sometimes needs to redo things, bug test things that was working but not any longer etc..
However we have now released a new patch that should hopefully bring back the arsenal and ammo boxes etc.
Also, its a minor thing but added a "Swedish mine" flag (and also a yellow version for training) rather than having a US/USSR one. But more real content is in the making and the next patch shouldn't be too far way

[shrewd sentinel]

Figured I’d update you guys on some bugs, the KGP 58 and the AK 4 are both still a little buggy as they do not reload when you attempt to reload them

[unreal merlin]

@viral otter

There was some changes to the animgraph in the update I believe, most likely the culprit

[viral otter]

I'll look into it later 👍

[viral otter]

For me they work fine :/ weird...
@shrewd sentinel

[shrewd sentinel]

Weird maybe it was my private GM idk

I was messing with the Regular AK 4 and it seemed to be only one not working as in reload aspect. The AK 4 with the grenade/203 seems to reload fine on private GM as for the one without it does not same thing KSP 58 doesn’t reload either idk weird

The AK 5 seems to reload fine along side with the sub machine gun that is in the arsenal box

Haven’t had any issues with the AT weapons yet nor the pistol

[viral otter]

I tried them all :/
But I'm going to dig a bit deeper when I get time for it.

[hollow shale]

Where is the swedish mod at? Isnt on the workship

Nvm found it

[hollow shale]

Transport Trucks are missing the seats, intentional or was this due to the Major Update?

[rough coyote]

i cant fire or aim the guns im pressing the trigger no shoot after downloading it since the patch like any guns

[rough coyote]

i think a mod wasn’t letting me aim and shoot

[undone helm]

Sometimes after downloading a mod and jumping into a private or public gm session it'll do that. After downloading a mod or multiple at once quit out of the game completely to your PC/ console home screen and then relog back in.

[hollow shale]

I hope the trucks eventually become finished :))

[tame cargo]

Intentional, this truck isn't normally used for troop transports but only for cargo. However we have now released a troop transport (it was viewable in release mission / cti but wasn't actually intended for release yet)

[hollow shale]

Dope asf! Gonna go check it out

[tame cargo]

might be 5 minutes before it is on workshop/downloaded on your side..

[hollow shale]

Would it just be an update to th SFP modpack or will it be a separate mod by itself? I already have the SFP installed

[tame cargo]

it will be an update.. in game master you find it as "transport troop", can take 19 people.

[tame cargo]

Strange

[hollow shale]

Uninstalled and reinstalled the mod just to make sure.

Then made sure that the driver/front passenger glitch was consistent between all the variants and it was

[slender cobalt]

The team is working on fixing the bugs listed above. As a bit of compensation for the delay i can post this WIP picture of the MKP5A1 and MP5SD 🙂 Intended for our civilian police and possible the members of the special operations group "SOG"

[hollow shale]

Can never have too many MP5s 😎

[rough coyote]

will it have the slap

[slender cobalt]

Are you thinking about the reload anim?

[violet osprey]

Thats actually the way its designed to be charged, theres a chance it wont go fully into battery if you dont slap the charging handle.

[slender cobalt]

Cool, Im not saying yes or no at the moment. We generally try to stick to the correct military procedure (swedish army)

Im not sure how they do it really, but if they are slappin so are we

If we dont get it right the weekend warriors will destroy my inbox 🙂

[violet osprey]

Hahaha

[slender cobalt]

Yeah they are terrible really. If a model is 99,9% perfect they are gonna notice the last percentage and complain. Never satisfied

[tame cargo]

small "hot fix but not a fix, just temporary solution" released for the tgb40, from a functional point of view, it works.. but some anims (like door is static when leaving) is still there. We don't fully understand the changes of the patch.. which to be honest came at same time as the first sunlight hit Sweden and editing had to put on prio 2.. so we not working as fast as during the cold season but we are still looking into it and will of course update and fix it

these "it used to work" also includes some missing sounds on weapon reload etc. We need to go through everything and write a to do list

[hollow shale]

Keep up the great work, looking forward to being able to use the transport trucks in our server

[tame cargo]

You should be able to use them, it’s just that the door doesn’t animate when you get out

[somber grove]

Sexy

[soft bane]

Looking good. Will there be a folding stock variant? Or did Sweden not use that?

[slender cobalt]

Not to my knowledge atleast

Civilian police do use a version with a push/pull stock but not folding what i can see

[soft bane]

Yeah, that is the one I meant.

[violet osprey]

Collapsible Stock is what thats called

[hollow shale]

Thats is a beautifully made MP5

[hollow shale]

Also

Tested the Trucks again. Passenger side and Troop Transport seats work great in terms of everyone sitting where they were supposed to. However i could not access the driver’s seat nor was i able to GM Drag myself into it

[viral otter]

We'll look into it 🙂

[hollow shale]

Sorry, no the truck works fine. It was the map that i was testing it on. Tested it in another scenario map and all the cues popped up.

Will say the suspension is definitely very loose

[runic oxide]

Tragic

[shell sage]

Can we get a Conflict variant for the Logi? Id love to use these guys as OPFOR in a work

[tame cargo]

for the logi?

[indigo plinth]

i think he means so it can carry supplies.

[shell sage]

Whatever that truck is, make a version of it that can hold supplies

[tame cargo]

think already have a logi truck for conflict.. but can double check

[old salmon]

Greetings and Salutations

You may be aware of the current issues and i have one more to add if i may

The Swedish forces pack has a lot of the previous bugs that were already stated, but there is a possibility that the Mod crashes the server although its systematically operational.

Sadly I'm unable to produce logs as nitrado is giving me issues in terms of log files 😮‍💨 apologies in advance

[tacit mountain]

GTX better

[old salmon]

So ive heard but damn its expensive

[tacit mountain]

Depending on what server package you get and it was the same/similar price as nitrado

[old salmon]

I'll look into it again, but the prices did vary last i recall anyway

[tame cargo]

Patched yesterday so that the truck wouldn't flip so easily.

[eternal rapids]

I was going to ask about the SUSAT on the AK 5, as you can take it off but not replace it

[hollow shale]

Just tested it and truck works great in terms of the suspension/CoG

Placing the truck is buggy.

For Ex.

If you place a truck with the front of it facing west (preview version) then it will be placed down facing a different direction.

So I went through all the trucks and placed them facing North to record which way they face when they are spawned in:

Stock Truck: North
Transport Troop: West
Transport Frame: East
Transport Canopy: West
Fuel Truck: West
Cabin: North
Cabin Frame: North
Cabin Canopy: North
Cabin Ammo: North

So its the Transport and Fuel Variants that deviate from their preview

[tame cargo]

Thank you for your Quality assurance work, had no idea. Will check later

[viral otter]

WIP Teaser (AK5C-animations)

[viral otter]

WIP Workflow (G36 remove mag animation) 🙂

[devout oracle]

I didnt know sweden used the G36.
But as a german this a surprise. but a welcome one 😄

[viral otter]

I think it is/was used mostly by special forces (SOG)

[fierce snow]

Since the newest update I’ve noticed all vehicles pertaining to the mod are unable to start.

[sterile oxide]

Rb hold y

[fierce snow]

Okay I’ll have to try that. I know the same issue was present with other mods.

I’ve also noticed that I can’t spawn any A.I. other Rifleman

[sterile oxide]

That’s a issue which this mod

[viral otter]

We'll look into it, thanks for the help! @fierce snow @sterile oxide

[viral otter]

K-pist M45B Reload animation

[hollow shale]

Thats clean

I wonder if for that bolt part at the end, if you can repurpose it for as a bolt action animation for rifles

[viral otter]

Like for this one?

[hollow shale]

Yes! So far now i think that is the only Bolt Animation on the Workshop

[viral otter]

I don't think the PSG90 is pushed for release yet. But it will be soon - with a bit of other stuff 😁

[hollow shale]

Do you guys have a roadmap? Or are you guys just coming up with ideas as you go?

[viral otter]

We had a content-list at the first release but i'll let @tame cargo answer you this.

[tame cargo]

Roadmap nope .. but we got tons of Ready models waiting for code/anims

[hollow shale]

Any more dope vehicles in line?

[unreal merlin]

Several! TGB16 is almost done

[hollow shale]

Ooo this???

[viral otter]

Yes 🤘

[hollow shale]

That looks dope ash. That and the Gaz are nice to look at

[eternal rapids]

@random stone

[old salmon]

Will the Swedish Forces be allied with BLUFOR US Faction similar to RHS's Marine faction?

or

Will it remain neutral for Future Engagement Purposes?

[viral otter]

Blufor

[slender cobalt]

Work in progress

[dense spire]

Ooooo

[hollow shale]

I love the antennas

[tame cargo]

@sterile oxide @fierce snow (and all others), should be fixed and workable soldier/transport vehicle again.

[charred grail]

Is anyone having issues with most of the weapons being unusable?

[viral otter]

Can you be more specific please? 🙂

[charred grail]

So the base AK 4 and the scoped variant will not reload, the mag just goes invisible and the weapon stays empty; this is the same issue with the KSP 58. All variants of the AK4 are unable to lean properly as your weapon faces the sky or the ground

[viral otter]

Thank you, will check

[charred grail]

No worries, my unit has been wanting to use the weapons as they’re really high quality and I didn’t know if the issues were just for us

[noble garden]

^ yeah we have been keen to use but unsure if it’s something on our end

[viral otter]

We have found same issues that you have aswell as other stuff. Currently working on a update 🙂

[charred grail]

Sounds good, can’t wait to be able to use the gear!

[noble garden]

Awesome thanks

[tame cargo]

https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/5E0A5B7ACA05FCD4-granQ_Swedish_Conflict

[hollow shale]

Nice

[random dock]

It's a shame the fn mag doesn't mount to things

[viral otter]

It will in a update.

[noble garden]

Out of curiosity how long till the update ?

[viral otter]

Not sure, we are using our spare-time for the project. When I get a feel for doing it - it will be done 🙂

[noble garden]

No worries my friend

[tame cargo]

thanks for the reminder, I forgot this feature been added. Will try look into it tonight/tomorrow

[rough coyote]

2032

[tame cargo]

Patch on Friday ✅
Patch on Saturday ✅
Patch with new content on Monday ✅
Yes its a radio, not much but it is a mark that we are back from the "summer holidays" , prepare yourself for more regular updates with bugfixes and additional content.

[noble garden]

I missed you guys and the G3 🥲

@sonic vessel some interesting weapons we could get our hands on

[slender cobalt]

Since we have helicopters on the way, here is some WIP pictures of the blyatmaster3000

[charred grail]

@noble garden

[noble garden]

Oh damnnn

[celest viper]

Will it be able to lock on?

[unreal merlin]

I cannot give you guarantees but i believe my teammates will manage to code it.

[celest viper]

🤞

[hollow shale]

Will the Swedish Trucks be reworked to be able to hold supplies and to have supplies visible?

[shell sage]

All vehicles can hold supplies now so I'd assume so

[unreal merlin]

Perhaps @tame cargo can answer that one

[tame cargo]

Of course, that should be easy. Also making the arsenal truck/fuel truck similar to what we see in the experimental build, but we keep the pace of the stable release (well we try).. so that's easy.

The hawk anti air (or RBS 67 as the Swedish designation) is a major challenge, but also a good way for me to really start learning scripting... We also have the Redeye waiting for some proper code

[hollow shale]

I cant wait to see both implementations

The RBS-67 sounds like it will be dope to see in action in game

[strong arch]

Will the RBS-67 be mounted onto the trucks similarly to how they were mounted on US M35 and M939 truck models?

[unreal merlin]

Nyet

[slender cobalt]

Still WIP, trying out materials in the editor

[tame cargo]

if you know anyone that might love the challenge to code this beauty into a death machine for the helicopters..

[somber grove]

@stark lynx

[frosty cargo]

The Redline guys might be able to help you out

[stray moon]

In the mean time, would make a very nice prop!

[drifting dawn]

Is this still being worked on?

[unreal merlin]

Yeah, exterior is complete.

I do have a complete interior but I really need better reference pictures to make it better and more detailed

[drifting dawn]

Glad to hear it

[frosty cargo]

Are the wheels touching the ground?

[unreal merlin]

No

[frosty cargo]

Is that intentional?

[shell sage]

Seems like it's supposed to lift up onto the legs

[old salmon]

Its dope looking! I hope it can utilize the guidance system set up by redline

[frosty cargo]

Irl it sits on the wheels and uses the legs for stability

[unreal merlin]

It’s intentional

That’s the proper way according to my sources atleast

[frosty cargo]

It looks like it can be setup either way. I've seen some on the ground and some raised up on the legs.

[stray moon]

The legs offer it stability when set up in a firing position. The wheels are just for towing.

[slender cobalt]

Yeah thats pretty much the info i got from my sources aswell

[stray moon]

They have a leveling sensor, the legs mean that the platform remains level.

[violet osprey]

Is the M/86 CG in this mod?

[hushed linden]

Seeing that vanilla helicopters are here, is there any plans for some? This mod already looks amazing.

[slender cobalt]

Yeah my colleague has already started Hkp4 and Hkp5

I have started on Hkp5 (BO105) but its very far off.

[stray moon]

Will you be doing any modern Swedish stuff, like dare I say it a CV90?

[hushed linden]

Thats awesome, can't wait for the hkp4 and Bo105. If you don't mind me asking what other vehicles do you have planned for the future?

[unreal merlin]

CV90 is already done, just waiting for tracked support

[unreal merlin]

Well Strv121, Pbv401, Pbv501 and CV90 all versions except C have completed high poly models. Just waiting for tracked support. TGB16 is being completed. I’m also working on FH77 and archer but they are far off still. We also have some weapons and launcher completed just waiting for animations

[stray moon]

Sounds awesome

[hushed linden]

Wow, can't wait, keep up the brilliant work!

[hollow shale]

Nuh uh, BKAN IC is my favorite swedish tank in WT

[runic oxide]

Are the devs even making tracked support?

[heavy knot]

no, not for reforger

[runic oxide]

Thought not, sucks

[heavy knot]

not really…

[runic oxide]

Wdym

[unreal merlin]

If the community puts enough pressure they might 😉

[hollow shale]

What about Space Core?

[unreal merlin]

What about it? I’m not familiar with it

[heavy knot]

current modded system is very similar (with a twist) to the a3 tracked base. A proper system takes time to build, and i would honestly have bi focus on other stuff and also have less (read no) shortcuts this time. Also this is going ot

[unreal merlin]

I kinda disagree, give us something that works decent like A3 tracked and people might get some models ready for A4

[glass wharf]

I think it would be cool to see vanilla tanks and bmps

[slender cobalt]

Do you hav a good example? Im kinda hesitant to use third party mods to get my stuff working

I mean what if SpaceStrider starts hitting the bong to hard and the mod is not maintained and breaks in the next update.

Then all my work is for nothing. PS: I dont think SpaceStrider is a junkie, just an example

[hollow shale]

I would suggest messaging Strider personally to be able to talk about his codes and all that.

If anything maybe you can learn from his Space Core and develop Swedish Core:))

[hushed linden]

You've also got redline with their aircraft codes they used for the A-10, plus they're working on guided missiles which I believe are nearly done I'm not 100% sure. Maybe speak to them about the RBS-67.

[tame cargo]

Yeah, i been looking into the Redline, it is nice, but its 100 mb with pilot helmets etc.. just for us to have one missile that few will use, is not really "value for money", adding Striders for tracked .... soon you end up with scaring people away, and like mega said, maintaining etc

For arma3 the only real dependency we used was CBA, and then we added several as "soft dependencies", like if you started with TFAR, you had a TFAR radio, but if you used ACRE or none, it was just a plain backpack

[dense spire]

(Just my 2 cents) 100mb is very small tbh and with the stuff on experimental, mods download alot quicker and the workshop is a tad more stable as well. + most modern communities already have redline installed for helicopters, strykers, etc….

[hushed linden]

Maybe ask them to make a seperate pack for the missile script?

[elder creek]

Won't happen. Core is specifically meant to be a single source for Vehicle/aircraft and related systems for mod makers to use. Additional helicopter subsystems, fixed wing aircraft, guided missiles/bombs, radar, targeting, and countermeasures. It's creation was so that anything R3D made that carried between mods could just be placed in core and only updated once. Splitting into multiple mods would negate that purpose.

[heavy knot]

It is just as possible to create new prefabs /scripts doing pretty much the same thing but keeping it dependency free from a 3rd party mod that is outside of your own control if you consider it is mandatory to create tracked vehicles fot reforger (i don’t think it is before bi supports it directly)

[tame cargo]

Yes but when isn't small anymore.. 5*100? And since you don't know what other people will do with their mods, next day there is a big "common weapons" and one of the mods you depend on is 300 mb of russian /usa stuff that have no relevance for the Swedish mod..

[hushed linden]

Oh right my bad, I wasn't aware but thanks for the explanation.

[slender cobalt]

Long time since i did an update, all is still WIP

[charred grail]

@noble garden

[noble garden]

Oooooh

[hollow shale]

What is that box with the green and red buttons

Also beautiful shotgun!

[wintry bane]

Those bombs in the background

[stable urchin]

they are missiles for the MIM-23 HAWK system

[hollow shale]

https://tenor.com/view/jaw-drop-shocked-gif-19589735

[slender cobalt]

Its a firing device for explosives (TA4) https://files.klaravikcdn.com/uploads/productimages/8f/d5/90044/extrabilder717801_large.jpg?v=1573628683

[tame cargo]

The Hip's are no longer safe, our RBS69 MANPAD is now released.

Also take the opportunity to say that we are always looking for talent (not only Swedes, anyone that likes editing, for particles, audio, config, scripts, models etc.. we are a small but active team)

[hollow shale]

@forest oriole its AA

[frigid bison]

This is hawt

[dim ivy]

should this be in the arsenal?

in any case I fired two missiles at a mi8 (in multiplayer) and it took no damage, does this work in singleplayer only for now?

it took damage when I fired it directly at the chopper

[unreal merlin]

Did the missile explode or did it miss when you fired?

[dim ivy]

I've heard explosions every time, and saw two missiles per shot (the one I fired and then a new one in front of me?)

I think the mi8 got explosion decals from it but I did not see any explosion fx

I tested it on a server with 150 ping, you can download a tool like Clumsy to simulate this kind of ping in peertool and hopefully you experience the same thing

[tame cargo]

I will see, surprised if it doesn’t work, more worried would be double explosions….

[dim ivy]

I'm also happy to give you access to the test servers I was using, but peertool is generally better

[tame cargo]

Yeah, did you get a tone before you fired?

[dim ivy]

yup, also I specifically moved the launcher a bit just before firing and saw the missile track the target

[runic oxide]

Gotta say a functional MANPAD is awesome to have

[violet osprey]

I remember seeing a post about an M/86 Carl Gustav, did anything happen to that?

[runic oxide]

It's out

[violet osprey]

I only saw the old M2 CG last I looked in the mod

[tame cargo]

Oh if it tracks it should hit I hope, and if it hits it’s normal collision /explosion effect so only if the server/clients doesn’t for some reason detect the collision.. our script basically steers the missile but doesn’t cause an explosion, that is vanilla

[fierce snow]

@tame cargo is this not in the Arsenal? I can’t seem to find it

[tame cargo]

You right, will update once children are sleeping

[dim ivy]

I did hear explosions and saw the decal as the client but did not see any particle effects

[slender cobalt]

Some anims are missing, will be released soon

[violet osprey]

Ooh

[meager vector]

Is this supposed to be like this?

[violet osprey]

Ofcourse, thats the new stealth assault rifle

[lavish swallow]

Have the trucks been fixed

[viral otter]

We are looking into it

[boreal sleet]

Would it be possible to add this as a seperate mod as the Swedish Forces mod is really big with 1.3 gb and it really adds a nice feature which is no were else to find really love it🔥

[meager vector]

👍

[slender cobalt]

Nope!

[tame cargo]

Invisible gun and manpad in arsenal fixed.. truck I haven't understood what happened in some updates

[strong arch]

Has the fix been implemented yet? Or is it just ready for when the next update comes?

[indigo plinth]

I might be interested,

[topaz sail]

👀

[frank haven]

Is that a m41 I see laying on that table👀👀

[slender cobalt]

Indeed!

Its actually the M/96, but the M41 is the sniper version right?

[hollow shale]

Will the uniforms ever be updated or changed?

[slender cobalt]

Yep! @vital oar is working hard!

[hollow shale]

Be great to see some modern Swedish gear like

And I wont lie. The Swede’s new(ish) experimental dress uniform look sick. Reminds me of the US WW2 Era Dress Uniform

[slender cobalt]

I have my doubts we will make the dress uniforms 🙂

[frank haven]

That is very true I think there was a few variants of the rifle

[tame cargo]

Merry Christmas, a new patch to make the truck usable again. We will need to go over this once again and fix/improve some aspects but at least it works again. However the change I would like your attention / feedback on is the following. With this patch I have overwritten the BIS conflict mission. This means, if you have SFP loaded and select the Conflict mission. It will be Swedes vs Russians. The benefits is that we will have a conflict mission, always with the correct/latest version, easy for us to maintain rather than trying to do our mission of it. The drawback is mostly if you want to have this mod loaded but still want to play the US vs Soviet conflict mission, or load some other mod potentially that will try use same thing. So please, let us know if this is a good, bad solution or if it doesn't concern you at all.

[formal root]

Will they ever be given body armor?

[tame cargo]

Not likely for the current time frame soldiers, (1980-1990), as far as I know. But for the 1990-2000 era (which we might slip into), there was a light combat "armor"

[frigid bison]

Possible to make the MANPADS a stand alone mod?

[hollow shale]

They already said no i am pretty sure

[shadow coyote]

someobody is already working on the scripts. so it'll come soon regardless

[viral otter]

Started working on the Swedish map "Ramskogen" again. It is based on a real location but adapted for Arma. 🇸🇪

[violet osprey]

Nice

[stark lynx]

did you find anyone or would there still be a use for me?

[tame cargo]

Definitely still use for you 🙂 sending a a pm

[viral otter]

Hello 🙂
Just posting a comparison from Ramskogen vs real-life from a place in northen Sweden. (And some other screenshots 😛 )

[unreal merlin]

Long time since last post, but here is a very early archer model. We are working on making sure the articulated steering and functionalities are working properly before any details is being worked on.

[violet osprey]

Noice

[molten spear]

Hey, letting you know that the optic in the carl gustaf lacks the reticles and on the one without optics it's not properly aligned

[slender cobalt]

jbsbusibsbudbusuh THAT ANIMATION IS SO F*CKING GOOD

[viral otter]

Thank you 😄

[strong arch]

Has the MIM-23 HAWK missiles come yet? I had seen them here

[clear pilot]

Not a clue

[clear pilot]

What happened to this mod jw?

[queen hazel]

I think it’s a dead mod

[clear pilot]

Damn

[heavy knot]

what happened to it?

[heavy knot]

it isn’t

also if there are no news, there are no updates here either. Asking for updates is considered spam btw

[viral otter]

@vital oar's work, looks great 🇸🇪

[lavish swallow]

Looks amazing

[clear pilot]

Very nice

[dire phoenix]

Just downloaded the mod and was doing some quick testing before our server tried it out.
Found some issues

• scopes on ak4, m48 & rbs69 have no crosshair
• zeroing the m86 farther aims it down.
• rbs69's rocket just freezes in the air when fired
• signal pistol 50 glitches out your hands/arms & won't fire
• the animation for loading a mag/round & charging the weapon happens every time you pull the weapon out
• seats don't work in the troop transport
• trying to open a truck door freezes your character
• sometimes the trucks barely drive forward & when they do, they are fairly slow

[viral otter]

Fixes for weapons/sights are on the way, we will look into fixing the truck after the weapons are fixed.

[lavish swallow]

Amazing

[queen hazel]

Really can’t wait for the truck

[clear pilot]

Isn’t this the same mod with the archer?

[dire phoenix]

Yeah, but I don't think it ever got released yet. Was/is still being worked on.
#1067895763843158066 message

[queen hazel]

I wonder why they stopped

[viral otter]

We have been waiting for more docs/support regarding vehicles.
TGB40 is our first test that will lay the how-to base for all the other vehicles to come.
Also waiting for BI to release tracked vehicles.

[queen hazel]

Oh tracked vehicle come out for the next game not this one so is all of this for A4

[viral otter]

We do what we are capable of in Reforger with Arma 4 in mind.

[fiery wharf]

Yes but the work they are doing will carry on to A4 as well

Just seeing this mod now and am impressed by all this stuff especially the animations.. that's a lot of work done in this..

[queen hazel]

It’s looks really great I honestly can’t wait for A4 because it’s opens the doors for more stuff

[fiery wharf]

I love that little truck, suspension did seem like every bushing was fucked in an old video of it driving. If there are any vehicle questions you guys got, you can DM me as I am a mechanic!

[viral otter]

Thanks man, we'll keep that in mind

[stable minnow]

Will the manpad work eventually?

[fringe crater]

Now i technically know better not to bite the bait, but I am just really curious so I'll ask: Do you think the manpad is designed to never work?

[sterile oxide]

Love y’all’s work

[vital oar]

Summertime is traditionally slow to nothing when it comes to mod-progress. But some work with objects have proceeded during summer:

[queen hazel]

Love this work also is summertime different over this thought summer time give you more time unlike fall and winter

[silent frigate]

My guess is parenting is more prevalent compared to sending kids to school and what not

[wintry sonnet]

I hope this mod hasn't been shelved, but I definitely know that the most recent ARMA update has fried some things.

[viral otter]

All the weapons are updated (not officially yet), still having some issues with the GRG tho (rocketlauncher)
@wintry sonnet

[wintry sonnet]

Good to know

[worthy patio]

Hi, love the mod. However, I found that the "RBS69" missile launcher crashes the clients of players on a locally-hosted server when either on a Weapon Rack or on the ground.

I am currently running a 1989-set campaign and had a session cut short because an RBS69 had inadvertently spawned on a BLUFOR Weapon Rack, leading to all my players' clients crashing with the following message when nearing the rack (approx. 100m away):

"Exception: Access violation. Illegal read by 0x7ff7f2b2dd78 at 0x[number here]"

After extensive debugging, I was able to confirm it was the RBS69 causing it. When locally hosting a server, spawning a Weapon Rack with an RBS69 will guarantee a crash of any players who are remotely close to it.

The error.log file would read as such:

20:25:24.672 WORLD : UpdateEntities
20:25:24.672 RPL : rpl::Pip::ProcessNetToGame
20:25:24.672 ENTITY : SpawnEntityInPrefab @"{71BCEFE4F64D1478}Prefabs/Weapons/Launchers/Rbs69/Launcher_RBS69.et"
20:25:24.672 ENGINE (F): Crashed
20:25:26.435 ENGINE (E): Application crashed! Generated memory dump:

As a result, it would be great if the RBS69 would either be fixed or removed entirely. Thanks!

[placid mirage]

Hey how were you going about debugging that access violation error? I keep getting it in one of my mods during testing and I'd love to find out what needs to be removed 🙂

[fiery wharf]

Need more information

As in send the whole access violation error

[worthy patio]

Just trial-and-error. I figured it was a mod causing it, so I had 5 of my players on a locally hosted server and just went about placing different entities & reducing loaded mods until I could replicate a crash. Every single time, without fail, when I placed a Weapon Rack with an RBS69 it would cause all connected clients to crash. I could even switch a Weapon Rack from US to Swedish and it would instantaneously cause a crash. This held after successive restarts, and was even when I had literally no other entities on a server. It also helped that the final line of the error.log file on everyone's systems always said the RBS69 was spawned.

[worthy patio]

a player of mine kindly passed along a full .rar file with all relevant logs

The final number of the Access Violation always read something different, from my players, I got:

Exception: Access violation. Illegal read by 0x7ff7f2b2dd78 at 0x295ffac0530
and
Exception: Access violation. Illegal read by 0x7ff75565dd78 at 0x2125a8c6520

and

Exception: Access violation. Illegal read by 0x7ff75565dd78 at 0x1c048f9a530

[placid mirage]

I appreciate the reply. Thanks!

[cloud pecan]

Hey, just a heads up the Carl Gustaf is doing some funny things. The video speaks for itself. If you inspect via holding r, you can sort of make use of it. Otherwise, there is no way to reload it. I noticed this prior to today's Reforger update.

A second issue that I noticed is that the Swedish shovels don't work with ACE Trenches. You can't place the blueprint to build. Swapping to a vanilla shovel works fine.

Thanks

[small swan]

Some very early WIP stuff for GRG 18

[novel venture]

Any plans for some modern swedish gear in this pack?

[small swan]

Yeah, we have all the weapons done basically. Just waiting for uniforms and to fix the huge backlog of bugs

[strong arch]

It's the MIM-23 HAWK still being worked on?

I forget what the swedish version is called, I think it's the RBS-63?

RBS-97, I mean

[small swan]

Not actively!

It’s there and when there is proper support for AA missiles it could be implemented quite fast

[strong arch]

I see, thank you!

[stray moon]

Have you looked into WCS?

[small swan]

No what is that?

[stray moon]

They have guided missiles which is useful. Many ppl use it as a dependency for their launchers.

[small swan]

Ok, will check it out

[viral otter]

Prone-animation for GRG48

[devout oracle]

awesome 🔥

[viral otter]

More animations for GRG48 (inspections)

[viral otter]

Working on some animations and bolt-action-mechanic for the PSG90 (coming soon).

[viral otter]

Nice job with helmets/gear @vital oar ❤️🇸🇪

[young blaze]

Thank you so much for adding this, so glad folks are not neglecting the Cold War setting, which imo is perfect for Sweden scenarios

[viral otter]

Polishing the PSG90 with new inspection animations and bipod/weapon-resting implementation.

[knotty wyvern]

are there any mods that add your gear to US boxes?

[viral otter]

No, SFP gear is in their own boxes.

[viral otter]

SFP update coming at the end of the week!

[viral otter]

SFP Uppdaterat och släppt, efterlängtade M90 uniformerna och som bonus PSG 90, med "bolt action" som det brukar kallas.

SFP is updated and released with the long awaited M90 gear and PSG90 boltaction sniper rifle. /GranQ

[winter cypress]

Jäääääklar va najs!!

Does this mod have a discord?
