The Nightstalker can be zeroed between a minimum range of 100 m up to a maximum of 1,000 m. It also features an integrated laser rangefinder, but has a backup collimator sight for use in close quarters combat. I hate the current NVGs and all past BIS iterations, currently I add my own grain and blur just to get more immersion. They cause an effect on the human player, will the ai be affected?

Type Yours is not causing Ace to malfunction. // Which weapons the character respawns with. In the Bootcamp update, we polished a lot of headgear items and added some fancy facewear. The NVS is a completely fictional design.

You can learn more about macros in a dedicated section of this guide. It also would be more realstic if the ENVG-II would get a slightly higher FOV due to the distance betweeen the lenses. The example is given below. Let's not forget NATO is po'! There are several kinds of config files, explained right below. that's probably ACE one, 2nd or 3rd Gen., they did that on purpose. Headgear is defined in the cfgWeapons class, and its config is pretty straightforward, similarly to vests. You need to sign in or create an account to do that. The ACO or the (advanced collimator optics) is kinda like a non-magnifying reflex sight for most primary weapons. There are two types of ground holders for headger, the difference is in the model of the holder one is better suited for helmets, the other for caps. 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. Should more variants of the same facewear exit, each one has to be defined as a new class and have a new model. Magnification // 2 = class is available in the editor; 1 = class is unavailable in the editor, but can be accessed via a macro; 0 = class is unavailable (and used for inheritance only). We were walking through the woods and setting up a Ambush and it got dark so we flipped our NODs down and it was like walking through a maze blindfolded hahaha.

The NVS (full name: Night Vision Scope) is a light-intensifying optical gunsight used by several BLUFOR, REDFOR and INDFOR factions in ArmA 3 . As it just so happens we have used the same system and I didn't mean it as strongly as you seem to think, but the thermal cameras in game are a little too sharp, they are usually more rounded because of the simple fact that heat is radiation and it radiates in all directions. This causes interfearance and in the end the picture isn't quite as clear as it is in ArmA atm And yes the NV's can protect themselves from bright lights, unless they are flipped on in surprise. I'm not sure why that's how yours are working =(. // List of model selections which can be changed with hiddenSelectionTextures[]. 5x Like my content and want to support me more directly?

Do not be distracted by the "Glasses"; originally, only various glasses and goggles existed other kinds of facewear (for example balaclavas) have been added in the Bootcamp update. 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. It has the same magnification strength range of regular TWS scopes (4x-10x) but is capable of switching between four modes of operation; "normal" day, orange/red-hot thermal, and night vision modes. In order to give FIA soldiers a more distinct identity, we opted for a slightly complicated way of randomizing headgear and facewear of FIA soldiers. The Nightstalker can be zeroed between a minimum range . Night vision definitely should be improved. This resulted in the breaking of almost all of their NV's and believe me when I say that the Trainer wasn't happy. There is also heavy softening around the edges.

These cfgWeapons classes need an additional class to be configured to appear in the editor. A lot of civilian night vision gear is less grainy because they have an IR flashlight but in a combat situation where the enemy might also have night vision an IR flashlight is a big no-no.

As mentioned, this is currently unreleased, but is being donated to ACE3 for assessment and potential inclusion in a future version. NATO CTRG CSAT Viper AAF A new character class defined in config.cpp might look like an example below. 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. Have a question about this project? However, its fixed zeroing makes it fairly redundant on anything other than assault rifles: The NVS uses an illuminated crosshair reticle with two fixed markings for targets at 400 metres and 600 metres away. modelOptics = "\A3\weapons_f_exp\reticle\ENVG.p3d"; // use vanilla modelOptics so it will show in IR mode Need to find a way to get rid of the nighstalker target detection crap.
