Hey all, just thought I'd post these here- a couple of pieces I done awhile back..! Hope you like them anyway..! THE INCIDENT ON GREEN MOUNTAIN (CLEAN) THE INCIDENT ON GREEN MOUNTAIN (WORN) THE CALL OF NOVA ZONA (CLEAN) THE CALL OF NOVA ZONA (WORN)

If it's completely fine with the mods, I will leave a few links here as I'm working on a map for ARMA 3 that seems to suit OPs initial enquiry: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?142308-Large-S-T-A-L-K-E-R-inspired-Island-quot-NOVA-ZONA-quot http://www.meshcarver.com/screenshots/INGAME_13.png Apologies if I've trespassed over some rules and will edit if so guys- no problem.

I am putting so many of these fantastic structures in to my map... The possibilities for bouncing messages off the virtual Ionosphere are endless... :)

Random but sort of on topic: If our star suddenly turned into a black hole, we'd still continue in orbit around it as it'd have exactly the same mass- it'd just be a lot darker lol... No light and all that. Estimates says that if it did "black hole up" then it'd have a diameter of about 5 kms. Of course, as it sucked in debris and matter then its mass would increase and eventually we'd be getting pulled in ourselves way in the future.

Damn, I had this idea ages ago for my WIP island for ARMA3...

I'll just leave this here... Ahem..! ;) http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?142308-Large-S-T-A-L-K-E-R-inspired-Island-quot-NOVA-ZONA-quot Be sure to also check out my two concept links for an idea of the atmosphere I'm going for...

Hi Nomad, Thanks for the reply but it still says 3rd person ON for both servers? I'd love to see if there's a hardcore/1st person server available?

Me too..! I'm back in Bangkok now so will give this a go, although if anyone knows of a 1st Person only server these parts, I'd love to hear about it?

Lol, voice over is fantastic..! XD

Fantastic image KarenB..! Enjoy the beans..! :)

Now we just need that big black tac shoulder bag from the MOVIE HEAT and we will all kick arse... ;)

Fantastic mate, glad to hear you'd consider actually purchasing ARMA3 for this mod, that's very flattering. I was very careful in choosing the ARMA3 engine to develop this mod, as the engines potential suits the STALKER aesthetic so well and all these little details you are writing about to increase immersion and horror can and will be easily implemented in the NOVA ZONA map.

OP, what you're writing about is exactly what I'm planning with a terrain I'm currently working on. I'll just leave the link here if you're interested, if not no harm done- I don't mean to derail this thread etc: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?142308-Large-S-T-A-L-K-E-R-inspired-Island-quot-NOVA-ZONA-quot

This sadly...I got one about 1 or 2 years ago for ARMA2 in general, but even after tweaking it and refining it to my own movements it still lets me down in intense firefights etc. I know all about the centre area where you can tell it to snap back onto the middle, but you have to be almost frozen into the same exact spot for the duration of your game for this to work. When I play, I'm constantly shifting about in my chair, leaning this way and that, and all of this is picked up by the Track IR which then puts your view out of whack. It's very unnatural feeling to have to stay so bloody still while e en just sitting down, let alone playing a game. Look at that (excellent btw) video by Dsylecxsi, and then notice how uncomfotable he looks all the way through- it's just not conducive to a natural posture over time. Sometimes I like to sit back in my chair, so times I lean forwards. Now, with Track IR that means the screen will zoom in and out etc... Anyway, I really did give it a go, but it's ALT to headlook for me- it just feels so much more accurate. I'd really love for the Track IR to be workable for me and might try to get into it again, but it got me killed so many times as my head was looking one way and is slightly zoomed and the gun is completely out of whack with it...

I couldn't find an author suggestion thread, but they should really include some Seneca- a Stoic philosopher who is well worth investing your time into. His works are extremely easy to read and are consistently mind boggling in their concise explanations of truth, virtue and the why of it all. "On the shortness of life" is essential reading for all us mortals... Not to mention reading it in the context of an apocalypse. It is PERFECT fireside reading for you reflective lone wolves out there...
