Drongo69 has released his "Tactical Systems - Command" module on the BI forums.

Tactical Systems - Command (TSC) is a simple command engine for OFP. It is designed to work in SP and MP (though it has not been tested much). Many concepts have been stolen/borrowed from CoC CE and CEX and I admit this freely. However, compared to CE for OFP, I believe that TSC is much easier to use (though less powerful).
This release is primarily for bug-hunting purposes (especially for MP).

The archieve contains a demo mission and basic usage instructions.

marcomio has released his retextured CAT Afghanistan island on the BI forums, originally made by CAT_SHIT_ONE_MM.

This modified version of the island uses high resolution 2048x2048px ground textures for better visual quality than usually.

First release of modified CAT-Afghanistan with groundtextures in 2048x2048 resolution. This is my attempt to get close to the structure of desert textures and their colours. I tried to figure out, which ones are the main ones and which might be useful in other desert terrains later on as well. Probably, one or two textures may get a rework. This is the first release, so if you find some bugs in texturing (mismatching texture-tiles etc.) or object placing, please let me know for patching them. Also it is not 100 percent complete: There are some little things and details still missing. But it is ready enough to be tested, because the implementation of those “little things” will cost a lot of time, which I don’t have in the moment. As I always mentioned: Constructive criticism is always welcome.



For more information and installation instructions, see the BI forum thread.

Update, 27-3-2010 - marcomio also sent us a low resolution version of his texture pack using 512x512px textures (Like Nogova, for example), reworked by Reyhard, for users with weaker computers. Using this texture pack might increase your performance. Or if you're more into quality, you should then stick to the original high resolution 2048x2048px texture pack. Both versions are now provided above.

OFPman and Rambo have sent us some WIP pictures of their OFPmania island that they're working on.

They're paying extra attention to the visual quality, as seen on the pictures below, with high quality ground textures filled with clutter. No additional info was given, but so far it seems like a pretty promising high quality custom island. Stay tuned for more updates!
