I just read this over at the BI forums from StalkerGB:

As i'm sure most of you don't know I have been in intense (well not intense but it sounds cool if i say intense) discussion with some people over at Project Reality, the BF2 mod for those who don't know. Anyway, the discussions were mainly about adding PR assets to ARMA 2, in an ideal world i would have made everything myself but that would take till ARMA 3 (or maybe 4).
So what it all boiled down to was PR giving me permission to use their work in ARMA 2 (so planes, tanks, helicopters, weapons and so on...) which is good news for you lot cause you'll get lots more stuff to play with!
As essentially I work for PR now, the mods i create will come under the PR banner, all that really means is that the PR name will be here and there alot more so don't worry if you think things will be changing, as always my focus will be on the infantry but hopefully armour will be working properly in game too!
Anyway I'll keep everyone updated on my progress on these forums but it might also be worth your while checking the PR forums from time to time.
I wasn't sure whether just to keep this in the ArmA thread, but I thought since it was kinda big and relevant to the whole mod I'd make a new topic here
wouldnt the pr models look **** in arma2?! no offence to the modellers, they've done great with what theyve had available to them, but i cant imagine low poly vehicles looking any good in ArmA2

Compared to the standard of most of the British addons for ArmA (most of which are relics from UKF's OFP Addons) they'll be a big improvement, besides bloom will hide the imperfections
So, will this project be given its own forum section here? Do all of the devs here officially support this project? How many people have contributed to this? Does this project have its own dedicated website?

Didn't know PR's content which exceeds BF2 content in poly count counts as low poly for ArmA2. What do they have 30k poly guns in there or something?
Also you got the screenshots up there and the PR's "low poly" L85 doesn't look **** to me at all.
I thought there was already a mod for arma2 that was made in the spirit of pr. i cant remember what it was called, but it has all the same features like AAS3 mode etc.

Problem is not weapons. Problem is everything bigger like lets say tanks.. apc's. Tho some visual things can be blurred away with bloom and reflections what arma2 has.
