Maj3stic 5 Posted August 5, 2012 Hi guys!I had an idea that I know a lot of you are gonna say, "Its already there <_<", but I wanna give you guys a similar but different idea...Say you have a vanilla M16, and you want to find an optic, you go to an army base, get the Holo sight, scope, laser sight, whatever. You get that, but need batteries and maybe even a lens wipe if it rains. If you guys want realism, I can assure you NO game has ever used a lens wipe.But what if you have a sidearm?You pick up a sweet G17 with a mag that is kinda small, and the iron sights aren't very good.You go to an army base and pick up a bigger mag and a laser sight to pimp it out.This is just a suggestion and an opinion, so don't tell me that you hate me,'cause I really don't give a :beans: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
umandez 139 Posted August 5, 2012 Already been talked about. Think rocket supports this to a certain degree Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
selgald 11 Posted August 5, 2012 I would like that. Upgrading things is nice, but is it possible with the arma engine? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Priceless 154 Posted August 5, 2012 This doesnt work in the arma engine a good idea but wont work with this engine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maj3stic 5 Posted August 5, 2012 I would like that. Upgrading things is nice, but is it possible with the arma engine?Well, with enough code anything is possible, considering the maps are 225km 2 :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spykr 8 Posted August 5, 2012 Well, with enough code anything is possible, considering the maps are 225km2 :)Holy fuck, that is one of the stupidest sentences I've read on these forums.And you had a lot of stupidity to compete with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stingzer 10 Posted August 5, 2012 this would be possible by having multipul versions of the weapon like the l85 which has loads of different scopes in operation arrohead, you could simply pick up a green pouch named l85 acog (the makorov/g17 one) and it would replace the entire gun all together, this would only work for guns that have lots of variants in arma or operation arrowhead Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hombrecz 832 Posted August 5, 2012 I believe Arma 3 has this as we seen in some vids.Not sure if this could be implemented to standalone or not.Anyway not a bad idea although it was posted already maybe except lens wipe :).Btw I would add also weapon jamming! Would make some fights damn more intense heh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
decoman 45 Posted August 5, 2012 (edited) I get this notion of a time sink if a lense wipe would be needed for using a rifle with a scope at all, so I would think a good solution is to be able to swipe the lens with your clothing as a partial cleanup and then having to use some particular equipment for achieving the best result. Preferably, any lens goo should buildup and not simply change state from clear, dirty and really dirty. Probably exploitable if a player tampers with texture files on his own computer. Maybe a hard coded procedural texture would work well for this. Edited August 5, 2012 by Treehugger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
