Nillier's GM Tools and Mods

[undone wigeon]

This is the thread for mods that I'll be working on! I'm fullstack dev with over 7 years of exp. Lately I've been obsessed with Arma Reforger so I've decided to try and create mods I haven't seen.

[jovial holly]

I always wondered if something like this was feasible in Reforger, very cool stuff. Will definitely be keeping a close eye on your amazing work

[visual depot]

Will this be available on the experimental version of arma?

[undone wigeon]

Could be later this week - when integrating with CRX Experimental

[unreal badger]

You are Rocking @undone wigeon!!! Thank you 🙏🏽

[visual depot]

that’d be amazing, loving the looks of it so far!

[dense shadow]

Lets see it 😄

[visual depot]

He’s posted a couple clips in showroom #enf_showroom message

[crude ibex]

This is the sort of stuff that excites me Reforger mod wise, not the millionth recolor slop mod.

[steel pier]

Couldn’t agree more

[undone wigeon]

Trigger edit properties will show a list of available actions and the GM selects which one wants to trigger with this TriggerArea.
Each mod have to register its actions by attaching a TriggerActionComponent and calling their methods from there

For V1 I'll add actions for CRX AI, TrainWreck GM SpawnInBuildings and GameMaster FX

[jovial holly]

Will GM's still be able to use vanilla AI commands ("move", "suppress", etc) as actions without using CRX AI?

[undone wigeon]

Yes

[undone wigeon]

This is kind of the best use case - You can have a group of AI far from an Area and upon trigger you can set the move order so they go to the trigger area, the only challenge with this is to also allow a trigger to have an AI Group linked to it but I'm working the problem

[fluid talon]

ETA on when GM FX will be incorporated

[undone wigeon]

Soon - is on my todo list once the framework is robust and I can start creating actions it should be fast

[blazing kestrel]

Love the trigger system just been messing around with it in SP.

Not sure if it’s yourself or the workbench but could you reduce the amount of system space it takes up for GM?

[undone wigeon]

Yes we can reduce it was set arbitrary at 15

[undone wigeon]

I’m adding the custom action handler and updating the experimental on the workshop

[finite pulsar]

Is this mod compatible with vehicles from other mods? (KIOK or RHS?)

[undone wigeon]

Should be but no ETA on that yet

[light garnet]

I've tested today.
Pretty nice system. 😎👍

[undone wigeon]

Uhh thanks! haven't had time to work on it but I'll crank some hours later this week to get modular actions working and then I'll start experimenting adding support to other mods

[light garnet]

Yeah i have also started with the CRX game master settings ( profile/preset ) part.

[undone wigeon]

I’m so hyped about that

[livid loom]

How do i make it so I know what trigger is set to which spawn in building area

[white delta]

https://tenor.com/view/fcdk-boma-fernand-nandje-gluren-gif-24967391

"maybe in the future when I get motivation for it" @light garnet that was fast

[light garnet]

Yeah it will still take quite some time...
Currently used game master system took several months to get it work properly.
Now i had to kinda reassemble the entire mod from scratch without any game master stuff.
Next i will have to find another modular way/system which provides the very same functionality + profile/presets. 💩

[white delta]

https://tenor.com/view/dog-iseeyou-spy-spying-peeking-gif-22194239

I will be watching like a eagle for that one 🦅

[light garnet]

Yes i know. 😜

[white delta]

Every thread, not only yours as you can see O.O hahaha but enough of you

Nillier, your work looks amazing, can't wait to see more in the future!

[undone wigeon]

Working on that, currently it will trigger the nearest

[undone wigeon]

https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/64F1229F486E8CBC-DSLRCamera

First version of the DSLR Camera mod is out - I'm planning to add more features to this overtime

[undone wigeon]

MK13 MOD 7 Coming soon

[soft lava]

This is nice what does it stream too?

[undone wigeon]

Nothing for know - I'm thinking in the future it could stream like the MQ-9 reaper mod to some laptop or tv screen and also have a other handheld videocam
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/64C225B94DEDC1D7-MQ-9ReaperKeyBindFix

[soft lava]

Right, if people had the ability to have pictures sent to a laptop or tv, additionally having so having some monitor stream live feed from a Hemet cam would be crazy

[regal zephyr]

What arsenal box is this in?

[soft lava]

Will you be working on a keybind fix for xbox?

[regal zephyr]

Looks like its US Only. Can we get it added to Civ Arsenal as well please?

or really all arsenals

[undone wigeon]

Sure! I'll try to have it added to all arsenals

[regal zephyr]

thanks!

[undone wigeon]

Yes - I've planned a MQ-9 Reaper update early next month

[river zinc]

👀

Allow us to shoot from it !!!

Just kidding I know this takes a lot of time

[undone wigeon]

That would cool / there are to modes we could sort of make it work: laser designated by man on the ground and by the drone operator but I'm still learning how to handle the camera and raytrace from it to actually be able to aim

[river zinc]

For sure.

Could you use the RHS screen component how they have in the t14 and epoch? And then add a weapon(s) of choice on it the user can use to aim and shoot

Which would probably require WCS armament or some sort

The orbit function is really nice

[undone wigeon]

Yes - I've been studying other mods to understand what's the better way to do that

[undone wigeon]

https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/64F0F5668EEE768E-MK13Mod7.300

[undone wigeon]

Updated DSLR Camera to fix textures and also fixed some attachment problems on the MK13 Mod7

Sneak peek of what's coming next:

[undone wigeon]

For the MQ-9 Reaper Mod e.e

[obtuse grove]

Tbh Nillier I Believe you can make a better one than using a that mod. That mod is good but in the case of pve or pvp its only Gm placeable players can’t call it in like an RHS airdrop nor place it like as a base asset.

[undone wigeon]

Yes, I’ll be creating a standalone one but using some scripts and logic from the mq-9 with the owner permission given

[obtuse grove]

If so I don’t have a PC yet but I’m planning on learning to make Persistent System for Warfighters Mod if it becomes a success,would you mind me making a compatibility mod with your reaper.

[undone wigeon]

Sure!

[obtuse grove]

Thank you

[undone wigeon]

Sneak Peek!
Improved Zoom
Rotate Camera with Arrow Keys
Improved Tablet Model along with Legacy Tablet and I've started to test on other props such as TV's and Laptops.

I'll add this new Laser Designator Binoculars (migth retexture them a bit) that will allow players to designate an Area where they need ISR with laser to Spawn it in, have it circle for x amount of time and RTB for refuel.

Also want to add the ability to call in a Hellfire or other Predator Ordinance with the Laser Designator.

As of right now anyone with a tablet can handle the drone camera, I'm working on limiting that to a specific prop that can only be acquired by any specific rank.

So a Captain can handle the ISR while other troops should only be able to watch, this will also be the case for spawning or moving the drone to another AO.

Any feedback or Ideas are welcome! Thanks @azure pendant for the ground work!

[obtuse grove]

Nice a flat screen TV 😂 I get to stalk people on a UHD

Question I’m on Xbox Will there be keybinds for the usage of the camera?

[undone wigeon]

Yes

[undone wigeon]

Isn't that what command does? haha

[obtuse grove]

Yup

Btw were you planning on a laptop prop I’m pretty sure you said something about it yesterday

[round ginkgo]

what is a lab top prop?

[obtuse grove]

Lmao I just realized I separated those two Labtop!*

[round ginkgo]

a portable personal computer is called a laptop, not labtop, or notebook...hence my confusion

[obtuse grove]

Hm…. Wow I actually didn’t know that

Never looked into that word much thanks for the correction though

[obtuse grove]

@undone wigeon I know you maybe busy with something else WCS added the CheyTac M200 in their NATO pack making the other by Keller vs Traffic incompatible due to magwell duplicate error

If you are willing, can you make the MK 13 Mod 7 .300 compatible with the WCS NATO if not it’s fine.

[undone wigeon]

Hey! I’m working on making the mk 13 mod 7 standalone once I figure out the ballistics and zeroing of the scope, I’ll try to have it compatible with the wcs nato! Thanks for using it means a lot

[obtuse grove]

OFC it’s a very nice gun

[undone wigeon]

Had some time today to work on the Drone - MQ-9 Reaper is coming back soon! At the time is not meant to be used on PVP or Conflict Scenarios, Id say is more intended for PVE and Milsim.

New Update Features:

1. Customizable Keybinds
2. Camera Pan, Zoom and Lock In controls
3. MQ-9 Control Tablet allows one player to handle the camera.
4. MQ-9 Viewer Tablet allows players to view the drone feed without being able to move it.
5. LaserDesignator Gadget, is used to spawn the ISR Overwatch where aimed at. If a UAV is already spawned it is retasked to the new area, so there can only be 1 active UAV.
6. Basic Telemetry shows UAV's altitude and Speed, the camera also has heading and coords of where its pointed.

Right now everything is instant, I'll try to add cooldowns and return to fuel configurable in the future but game master menus are a bit out of my current scope, also need to add the hud and telemetry to the viewer tablet.

Just have a look at the video and let me know if this is good enough for a release!

[soft lava]

I'd say that's perfect, obviously more can come later with it. Will the keybinds work for both tablets or just the controller tablet

[undone wigeon]

Just the controller one

[soft lava]

Fair, so say the controller enhances the zoom, that takes effect on the viewer tablet as well

[undone wigeon]

Yes, thing is multiple people controlling the drone can lead to a bad experience and there is no way everyone controls their own "camera"

[soft lava]

And that makes complete sense there should really only be one person controlling isr in general so, that being said, I say send it boss

[undone wigeon]

New version released!
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/64C225B94DEDC1D7-MQ-9ReaperUAVRework

[soft lava]

Don't know if this could help you one thing I just noticed. I grabbed the viewer after the MQ9 was already spawned in and was stuck at the no connection page. All i had to do was recall in the reaper and it worked, but for your notes maybe 🤷🏻‍♂️

[undone wigeon]

Yes, I need to fix that, fo now just make sure to have the tablet already when you call in the drone!

[deft reef]

unfortunately nothing I could do to fix this, you just have to load either Cheytac or NATO atm, because yeah all the Cheytac files are in the NATO modpack.
i guess maybe i could prefix the classes in NATO, but i think it would still throw log errors due to duplicate workspaces and such.

[rancid spire]

Loaded in my server and cant get the UAV to spawn, any ideas. Worked in SP fine

[obtuse grove]

It’s alright

[naive lodge]

@simple wharf

[simple wharf]

Presente

[undone wigeon]

Let me check, I think I setup replication correctly but let's make sure

[undone wigeon]

You're right it is not working on dedicated servers, that's on me. Just loaded it on my server and tested. I'll be hotfixing it real soon.

[undone wigeon]

Well doesn't seem like an easy fix, so I'll take it down until I figure out why is not working on dedicated server

[rancid spire]

Sounds like a headache and a half

[undone wigeon]

Yeah is not fun to iterate to test of my changes made it work because I can't test it on the workbench, need to test it on a server so I have to uplado mod and restart with each change hahaha

[undone wigeon]

[obtuse grove]

Nice

Will the tablet give distant elevation directional readings

[undone wigeon]

Yep along with heading, coords, etc. I’m a bit sad, going to have to rewrite a big part of it so its architecture allows for replication and synchronization between players, dunno why I was thinking it was something out of the box with workbench

[obtuse grove]

Well in order to make big jump it doesn’t take a few steps back

It’s worth it in the end

[crisp bear]

Is this acquired from cg traders? I have a similar tablet I got from there and it did the same thing, except I setup gadget usage before loading it into the world and had a tablet that size in my hands 😂

[undone wigeon]

Yep it’s from cg traders, I also have it normal size just have that one to debug faster

[stiff nymph]

.

[undone wigeon]

That one can be picked up haha is cursed.

[undone wigeon]

I'm studying more for arma mod dev than I ever did for work or school xD

[obtuse grove]

Bruh fr I’ve never been so focus on a project like What I’m doing school work and jobs is boring. This is like a fun hobby

I’m over here like I can make what I can’t get

[west oasis]

https://tenor.com/view/bruh-missile-attack-gif-15129536

[tawny cloak]

It will be simply amazing to have it functional for recon and attack

[west oasis]

Fr

[river zinc]

I wonder if adding WCS armaments to it for the hell fires/ AGMs would be an issue which would be nice for it to have flares too that shoot when it’s locked onto?

Seems like a lot of work

[tawny cloak]

Might be able to use the A-10 Mod armaments (in picture) or the stuff from RHS or Game FX Master to do the strikes like the F/A-18 and the Russian Missile that has a bigger impact and explosion maybe a way to select between the 2, I’ll be happy with it just being functional tbh lol

I believe he’s working on doing a call in I suggested to them for the calling in of artillery and stuff using a laser designator kinda like the Vector21 RHS F/A-18 and the 2 the Russian get, be nice if you could select between the three different ones off the laser design designator, or select that you want artillery, or like an AC 130 attack or a A-10 Gun Run or something what ever it is will be the BOMB 💥 tho

But I have complete faith that they are working on bringing the reaper and the other stuff to life and soon

[deep shoal]

It'll be great to have and even better when someone builds a flyable one the human element of it will add so much to ops the possibility of missing targets and having to communicate with a jtac

Will make milsim feel like A3 again in some ways

[tawny cloak]

That’s what he’s is currently doing

[undone wigeon]

Yup, I'm working on the laser designator but setting up the replication and server - client logic is quite the challenge

[deep shoal]

Oh shit I thought you were just making the original work I'm sorry I misunderstood hell yeah then if you need any help testing on multiplayer I will add to our server when available

[tawny cloak]

Yeah, it’s really bad ass that he’s trying to get it to work by calling it in with a laser designator and not have to have a GM place it, going to make my JTAC role AMAZING when it’s working

[deep shoal]

Ya I'm already thinking make one of our aviation have the tablet and have to communicate with our JTAC and vis versa

[tawny cloak]

See I don’t know how your group runs, but I know he’s working on it to where One tablet will control it, another tablet is just a viewer tablet so like a squad lead or somebody could have the viewer tablet, and it also transmit back to a TV or laptop at the command post for the commander to view

I think in like future stuff once he gets it working he’s going to add like it has to go back to refuel and stuff like that, he has a bunch of stuff he’s talked about what he’s wanting to do above this if you scroll up quite a bit

#1349439516381024287 message

#1349439516381024287 message

I’m a bit too over excited for it 😂
But to be fair, it’s a game changer

[deep shoal]

Hell yeah I'll can't wait

[undone wigeon]

You guys hype me up, but the learning curve for Enfusion Scripting is a bit step right now - still learning

[tawny cloak]

You will get it!!, hopefully somebody that’s really intelligent with that scripting stuff might pop in here and say hey this is what you need to do, cause they want it also

[undone wigeon]

I think scripting is more about knowledge than intelligence, you can be a genius but you gotta know the hows

[undone wigeon]

After a deep dive on game systems and replication I was able to restructure the logic for spawning and laser designation, only thing left to do is to sync the camera for all players and add in the shooting capabilities tomorrow I’ll upload a version so we can QA it

[tawny cloak]

Just let us know when it’s out, is it stand alone now or still have the other 2 dependencies ?

[undone wigeon]

It will depend on the first mod for the thermal vision filter, but everything else is pretty much build from the ground up, also thinking of adding a clear vision filter too

[undone wigeon]

Just tested on a Dedicated Server and the Call In of the Drone, ReTasking and UAV camera handling are working nicely.

The AO is sync for all players so the UAV circles around the same point for everyone but couldn't sync the camera yet so think it is a 360 Cam and you're just controlling your digital view of the cam.

I need some feedback on the default height for the drone until I add a configuration section for Game Master to setup the default height. Right now is in 300 so when Max Zoomed In you can actually see people and not just white bars.

At the time it only shows Speed, Alt, Heading of the Camera, and the coords where you're pointing with the camera

https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/64C225B94DEDC1D7-MQ-9ReaperUAVRework

Other features might come later - I'll be focused on understanding Replication completely before attempting any other hard feature.

[tawny cloak]

So like switchable Clear, Night, Thermal would be badass!!

[deep shoal]

Looks sick

[deep shoal]

Maybe I'm messing up somewhere just downloaded and testing have the laser designator out hit the keybind for spawning the drone and nothing happens or is there a time delay more than say 5 min?

[undone wigeon]

No, it should be instant did you have the previous version? Is this in a dedicated server? Mod won’t work on single player or local host

I messed up single player trying to make it multiplayer I’ll try to patch it up

[deep shoal]

Oh rog but it does work on multiplayer was just testing before adding to our server

Wanted to know what to tell the controllers ya know

[undone wigeon]

Yes, on dedicated server it works at least for me haha please test it out, keybinds can be configured

[limpid niche]

anyone else having issues with not being able to access boxes inventory’s etc, when one person has the control pad out.

[undone wigeon]

Haven’t experienced this one, to reproduce one player has the tablet out, the other person tries to open an Arsenal?

[limpid niche]

yes, inventory as well, had one person with the tablet and about 5 other people unable to do any actions related to arsenal or inventory

[undone wigeon]

Only if the tablet is out? Damn, I can’t even imagine what’s causing this

[undone wigeon]

I’ll have a look sorry man

[limpid niche]

all good glad to be able to locate issues

your doing great work and love the mod new look of the tablet and it’s controls

[thick totem]

Can concur, that this is an issue. However, in my server it only seems to affect the Xbox guys, the PC guys could still open their inventory and everything. The other thing was it would not let the Xbox guys bring their weapons to their hands or leave GM if someone had the tablet out.

[undone wigeon]

That is interesting, I'll try to replicate the behavior with a client with an xbox controller, currently I don't have an xbox to test but I want to see if maybe I'm doing something with the console bindings. Thanks for the info guys!

I can confirm I was able to reproduce the issue with an xbox controller, looks like what's going on is that any tablet active in the world is capturing the controllers input, I'll try to fix it!

[undone wigeon]

Updated!

• Fixed bug with Inventory for controllers
• Fixed Single Player or Localhost

[soft lava]

Hey have you been working the rappel mod still?

[undone wigeon]

I have a couple of ideas and proofs of concept but need to get more into animation

[tawny cloak]

Poor dude has a list of stuff to do and complete longer than Santa’s list 😂

[undone wigeon]

Haha dude you can't imagine. I've got into software dev because I wanted to make games, got sucked into mobile development and corporate life, been coding boring stuff like your Wallmart App for iOS. This is the closest I've been to working on what I like!

[tawny cloak]

I’m glad the stuff you like is the stuff we all want!! ❤️

[agile shore]

is there a way to slow the reaper drone down?

[vocal beacon]

Wow, GREAT work so far. Watching this for updates.
Only tried the MK 13 out so far, and love it, but in my opinion, we need a bipod option for it.
Those 1000 meter shots are rough without one.

On the laser designator, will this work as just a stand alone as well? My server is looking for lasers that we can use to designate for chopper attacks.
The gun lasers can not really be seen from the air, so wanting a high powered laser for that.

I am gonna check out the other mods, as we are looking for a way to give feedback to the mortar squads and have then be able to be their own forward, since the server is only a handful of people most of the time.

Thanks for your work so far!

[undone wigeon]

Yes! I'll work on a laser designator that can be seen from the drone and from helicopters, think of it as the ACE finger mod but to see it on your hud you'll have to be wearing some helicopter helmet, something like that?

Bipod for the MK13 Mod 7 is coming along with some sniping features - there's a realism mod that has ballistics affected by wind so a Kestrel will be useful

Getting my degree on Arma animations to improve the MK13 Mod 7 a swell

Just saw this bad boy in Warthunder, perhaps a hand thrown recon drone in the future could be built

[vocal beacon]

We have an unwritten rule when we play Everon, when we get to Green Valley, I load up a helo with tons of ammo, and sit the entire part on the ridgelines clearing the way.
To have wind, and the proper recon tools, as well as an actual scope that just has MIL or MOA adjustments for fine tuning, would be a huge thing.
Would take recon to a whole new level.

Just re-read and saw you said there is already a mod for affecting ballistics with weather?
I am gonna find that now. Thanks

[undone wigeon]

https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/646139033F5805AD-RealismOverhaul-Ballistics

https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/5E6CE5D8F8134050-WeaponsBallistics

[vocal beacon]

I saw these, but they did not mention wind.
But they do?

[undone wigeon]

Can't guarantee but I've seen for example if wind on game master says east and 4.2m/s something like that then the bullet moves a little bit in that direction on far ranges

[vocal beacon]

I will test it out.
The wind affects everything except the bullets in the base game, so it was kinda annoying to see that.
I am gonna see.
Thanks for the tip

[graceful geyser]

Ok so I heard mention of helicopter rapelling, is that actually planned?

[vocal beacon]

Just tried both of those, and neither actually worked with wind, so that is a bummer.
On the plus side, I saw rumors about BI adding it natively at some point, so that is good.
Was worth the trying though.

I test at 900 meters with .308 M110.
Got a good group with no wind, then put full wind to my 90.
This should have had a few feet of wind drift, and my point of aim point of impact did not change. Still grouped the same in the same spot.

[tulip token]

Maybe test it with a vanilla gun

[vocal beacon]

will do

Same result with both and the default 21 at around 700 meters. No change in POA POI

(sorry for the slight derail to this thread)

[undone wigeon]

Hmm so a kestrel is kind of pointless unless we mod it to Apply wind effect to the ballistics, I’ll still do it for the roleplay

[vocal beacon]

Yeah, but still could be useful for mortars, as those seem to be affected by wind.'
Just did some testing, the only thing that seems to be affected is the illum rounds.
HE did not care, at least at 1000 meters.

[crude tinsel]

I am the author of the first one.
Unfortunately wind deflection does not currently work in the game so it cannot be fixed with a mod, I have tried 😦
Lets hope that the next update fixes this as they teased in the latest RFI

[unreal badger]

I love your mods dude! keep up the amazing work

[rancid spire]

Your mods are essential to my server nonetheless

[undone wigeon]

Love those mods btw ! Great work

[undone wigeon]

What if we mess with the zero of the scope to simulate that?

[graceful geyser]

I'd like to bring this up again

[undone wigeon]

Yeah no ETA on that, everyone has tried it but is just hard to implement

[graceful geyser]

Not looking for an ETA just wondering if it's something on your radar

[vocal beacon]

This is an interesting idea.
I am wondering though, since you will have to do this calculation for every physics frame that is aiming down site, if the performance hit could be rough.

Also, would have to factor this in for the AI as well, so I am thinking that a workaround is probably a really big thing.

The scope would need to move the point of aim depending on the wind speed and direction, for each player, if we ignore the AI, might not be to bad.

Would need to build out the ballistics charts for each round and each optic though, or build your own optic that uses a it for a specific gun ( your 300 would be a good candidate. I would try it out for sure. )

[undone wigeon]

It is

[undone wigeon]

Yep, doesn't seem practical

[vocal beacon]

Yeah, probably why it has not been done yet.

[deep shoal]

Hey idk if this is possible or has been mentioned but is there a way to make the drone see ir strobes like rhs head strobe while on to track friendly forces moving

[vocal beacon]

But it is in the works by BI, so the Kestrel would be useful when that rolls out for sure.

[undone wigeon]

Instead of having to simulate the wind for each round and gun type it would be better to have the widn act as a global modifier that affects any shot round.

Trench! - Yes there's an improved version of the Thermal in the works

[crude tinsel]

Interesting idea. I haven't touched zeroing so I am not sure if horizontal "zeroing" aka windage is even possible but on the other hand I am pretty sure BI is working on wind deflection already

[undone wigeon]

Yup, lets just wait

[obtuse grove]

Anyone having trouble calling in the reaper with the binoculars

[violet nova]

A tip if it's going to be worth anything to you, but now that I'm starting to make mods, I collect the weapon components that make sense to what I want to do and throw them at the AI ​​so that it can explain to me how everything works and how to use it, and if you have the paid version, you can still ask it to do an in-depth investigation on the enfusion and pass on some good information.

[vocal beacon]

Yeah for sure, but I do not think we have access to that.

[undone wigeon]

Yes! I have the paid version, in my experience it hallucinates a lot with methods that don't exist on the vanilla APIs

[violet nova]

In fallujah map dont fuction, dont know if is the map or the mod

When I put the default he goes to 00 and when I put more than 200 he became a simple fog screen

[violet nova]

Yeah, this happens sometimes

[violet nova]

underground

[vocal beacon]

This is not just with BI API's, it is pretty much with any part of development at all.
It reads Stack Overflow questions and wrong answers or custom methods that people wrote as absolute.
Which I am betting you already know lol

[undone wigeon]

Yes is the map I believe, on Helmand it didn't work either. I believe it has to do with the sea level but I need to check!

[undone wigeon]

Should not be placing the drone on the GM but instead using the Laser Designators found on the US Arsenal

[violet nova]

Ok

Só dont need to use the GM for nothing ?

[tawny cloak]

No, just the laser designator to spawn it

[undone wigeon]

I’m looking at why some maps break the uav spawning

[vocal beacon]

Is the viewer tablet still in the mod?
Just asking before I go thru all 238 pages looking for it
I found the control tab, the laser des, and the dslr, but not yet the viewer

[obtuse grove]

Arland does IG

[undone wigeon]

It’s disabled since it can’t see any changes other player does on the control tablet

[vocal beacon]

Ok, thank you.

[river zinc]

someone needs to @ Salami

[obtuse grove]

Funny request Nillier is it possible you can make the RHS Ponos(Mohoc) function this way

[obtuse grove]

🤣Salami is on a vaca right now

Framework made it easy to implement

I'm planning to release this framework with:

• Screen presets and base HUDs
• Action to pair a Camera to a Screen.
• Some Pre-Paired Prefabs ( like the drone and tablet )
• Documentation to implement on your custom mods

[obtuse grove]

Hahahaaaa awesome is it ok if I can show this to rhs since it reside to their product

[undone wigeon]

sorry I wanted them to see it too haha

[obtuse grove]

Did you see what I said after lol

[undone wigeon]

haha yes

Your systems will be a very much use to me.

[violet nova]

No you not

[undone wigeon]

No what?

[obtuse grove]

It’s always the little things that make big differences. Now with a weapon, helmet, and body cam functioning not for the player’s view but for monitoring players can can have individual surveillance footage of warfare

This can lead to players having camera recording of team killers, no the whereabouts of their teammates and better reconnaissance by transferring data before before sending infantry units in uncharted territory

I wonder if the real life Mohoc or the Mohoc 2 has a camera zooming

[obtuse grove]

I’m I may make suggestions.

• Sledgehammer
• Door Stopper
• Door camera

And there is this one device I really don’t know the exact name of it but the idea is from Battlefiled 3 and 4 it’s Camera IR device that is placable on the ground it locks on to Tanks but I’m generally speaking about the device being a place able pro camera

[obtuse grove]

Similarly to these images but more on the digital side to use Tablet or mobile device

• basically seeking for more solutions of reconnaissance having players less the risk of going in blind

• if you do want to use the camera are certain tools to lock on or a laser guiding system I suggest WCS Armament.

[undone wigeon]

Interesting ideas! 💡

[obtuse grove]

I try to make it small and within range of what you’ve achieved

[obtuse grove]

I found some very awsome news

So I downloaded the vpad test mod and with a mod dependency im able to place the vpad onto any vehicle

It’s very amazing because of the mod they are using as a dependency

The mod is by: armazing

It’s called HCA_RadUI

https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/61FF27D67BBDB412-HCA_RadUI

Using this hopefully youre able to stick camera devices anywhere on vehicle or against structures

[warm sorrel]

How u place it down

[obtuse grove]

Go to settings>control>HCA UI

make sure to have the keys mapped for the HCA

Also make sure to adjust vpad settings through Gm you wanna make sure the faction you’re in has access to the vpad through the arsenal

After that pull out the vpad then press the key for HCA setting go to attach to vehicle Press attach then it should show the tablets place it where you want it then I believe you back out(don’t unequip the map just back out)

It’s easier doing this that what I making it sound like

[undone wigeon]

Ohhhhh

[vocal beacon]

I guess I am a simpleton lol.
I can not figure this out at all.
This is all I see.
Pressing any key seems to do nothing.

In context of this mod, being able to mount the control or view tables like that would be game changing.
Used the reaper the other night so the mortar guy could do everything himself, and it was so great.
Me and another guy, were recon and setup the laze, then he called the reaper and watched it while he shot. The accuracy of the mortars by him went up 10 fold.

[obtuse grove]

When that error pops up on your screen it’s just a missing action or keybind

[vocal beacon]

New to this mod, and there is no documentation I can find. Sorry for bugging you on it, just looked like a great feature.

[obtuse grove]

You’re good I’m on console though I’m not sure if pc is different

[vocal beacon]

Found the vpad thread so I am looking there.
Thank you

Got it.
It I thought I was supposed to use left control to use it.
It is the "extras" button for the vpad that enables it.

[tawny cloak]

Would be so cool if the guy that does the V Par got with the guy that does the SUV pack and made the little screen on the dash work like a GPS

[obtuse grove]

No need really just hook the vpad to the SUV

It will stay in there until the vehicle is either destroy or deleted

[tawny cloak]

Oh awesome I’ve never tried it out

[undone wigeon]

Hey! I'm going to be off the grid for a week or so - moving to a new place o7

[rancid spire]

Sounds like fun

[tawny cloak]

We noticed last night that the Triggers Mod was removing everyone’s name tags?, anyone experienced this ?

[undone wigeon]

The Area Trigger mod is not updated to 1.3

[undone wigeon]

Only fun bit is getting the setup in place first before unboxing everything else

[lime citrus]

Any fix for when you place the VPAD in a vehicle and it is then impossible to delete?

[undone wigeon]

I didn't make the vpad mod man

[lime citrus]

Shit my bad. Clicked into the wrong thread.

[dim raven]

@undone wigeon looking at using your DSLR camera, but I don’t know what box it’s in? Or is it a GM Drop?

[undone wigeon]

US

[tawny cloak]

Have you added any features to the camera ?

[undone wigeon]

nope! just finished moving will start working on mods again soon

[tawny cloak]

Oh sweet congrats! No rush just checking and keeping the thread alive so I dont have to search for it lol

[shrewd dock]

You can follow it so it pops up under the enf_showcases channel. Just to make it easier to find

[tawny cloak]

Yeah, I do follow it, but it’s set to where if there’s no talk in it for a week (the maximum) it just goes away

[shrewd dock]

Huh, mine stays even if there's no talk, one of my follows has been dead for a month

[oblique vortex]

Hey nillier would a bipod be the next mod for the MK 13 MOD 7 .300 cause the guns awesome just need me a bipod

[undone wigeon]

Sure thing! Sorry I've been off the grid. Had to settle and focus on picking up pace at work!

[oblique vortex]

Your all good brother hope everything going well

[tawny cloak]

Hey @undone wigeon hope everything is still going good man!! Still using and loving the mods!!!

[obtuse grove]

I almost forgot about his modding skills

[tawny cloak]

100% can’t wait for some updates I use his MQ-9 all the time

[obtuse grove]

He was doing camera works with the RHS Ponos but since he moved he’s been settling he may come around.

[undone wigeon]

Hey! I finished moving and had a big milestone at work - for context I'm a dev at Expedia and had a big project on my back so been having very little to no time to mod or play - project is coming to an end so I'll have more time in the upcoming months

[oblique vortex]

Take your time niller

[obtuse grove]

No problem happy to hear everything’s going smooth with ya

[tawny cloak]

Glad things are going well and hopefully your plate isn’t as full

[white delta]

He'll come back suddenly and drop pure fire. Take yer time!

[tawny cloak]

That’s what he done with the MQ-9 Reaper,
came in fixed it and then off into the night like Batman or something lol

[cosmic ridge]

[obtuse grove]

Yes it still does

@cosmic ridge

[cosmic ridge]

dose anyone know if teher is a mod with spoting scope and tripod?

[obtuse grove]

No however I there’s a model by 3dmilitaryassets (website) this way you can suggest it for a modder to put it in. This modder is retired for the time being don’t know when hell come back. I suggest to take this to modders that deal with optic and camera systems maybe they’ll accept

[cosmic ridge]

just dont know how to implement it

its a came used for spotting in British Army

[obtuse grove]

Nice work dude you’re using blender

[cosmic ridge]

Yes but i cant get it in game wich is sad

Bc i really want to suprise my mate

[obtuse grove]

Why not

[cosmic ridge]

I dont have skill set

[obtuse grove]

Ahhh well it’s always good to introduce yourself to experience modders and seeking their guidance

[cosmic ridge]

Yes am currently working with one who is helping me out

[austere depot]

Was wondering if you are aware about the MK-13 Sniper not having a sound without having a suppresser

[round ginkgo]

@final sky- don't do that

[final sky]

I won’t again sorry

[rigid vessel]

No update for the camera?

[tawny cloak]
