What on earth is that? a bomb trolley?

Nope, but slightly on the right track, for part of it anyways

The tyres could be the front and rear of a Harrier but where's the rest? Could it be part like the underside of a FRS1 - but weren't they all grey back then?
The silver bit could be the orientable nozzles? But the green bit....and the rectangular intricate bits.....

The Anchor point implies something on deck or a tow point - I assume they didn't need a airplane tow vehicle with all the Navy guys around....

Hope someone could put me out of my misery.

REPOST to encourage helpers:



Found a tractor:

hehe, wheels probably throwing you off a little too much, and there are a few clues here and there outside of that picture and this thread

Biggest clue however is in the colour, not many things are painted that colour

Yus, I mean he did say tide me over with the FRIGATE.

I'm sorry for asking again, but will Project Reality v1.4 get delayed due to your extensive work on Falkland Islands?

The core feature of v1.4 is PR:Falklands so they are one of the same thing

Thank you kindly for your update.

I will keep my mouth shut now.

No need to "shut your mouth", tbh I would rather the community where fully in the loop with what is going on than not.

As for your earlier question on:

Well I feel I should update you guys on the fact that yes, v1.4 has suffered from serious delays due to some r/l stuff over the last few months.

Firstly I've had to format my PC three times over the past four months due to a failing hard drive which finally totally gave up the ghost this week and I've now replaced with a new 3TB one. Luckily no PR work etc has been lost since firstly, its all backed up online and on other PCs and secondly, the hard drive that failed was one which I only had programs and temporary files installed on. But each time this has happened its taken around a week to get my PC up to a state with everything installed and setup to how I like, to be able to do any significant PR work again and in all has cost around 2 to 3 weeks from the initial format in November, which was mostly down to a power surge and probably also what put my 7 year HDD on its last legs, but didn't work that out until this week where it fully stopped working

Secondly the recent DDOS attacks on our servers put the entire team under pressure and for we lost about a weeks worth of working time sorting that out.

But lastly, two weeks ago my family caught a seriously nasty strain of the flu. Not only did this mean that I was bed stricken for a week, with also still somewhat recovering from it now and seriously lowering my energy to do much, but worst of all it has put my Dad, who was pretty fit and healthy, into hospital due to complications from this flu strain, resulting in him having a very low blood oxygen level, resulting on him being put on Oxygen in the Intensive Care Unit. Luckily he has recovered a little and is now out of the ICU but is still in hospital and still on Oxygen, and the doctors have tested for every known strain of the flu (bird flu, swine flu, etc, etc) but this is some kind of unknown strain, that resulted in him having a partially collapsed lung as well as other issues. But ye, he seems to be recovering slowly now which is good but he is going to be very weak for some time, which means that I'm having to take on a lot more jobs for the family business and will result in me having less time for PR work over the next few months.

All these things together has thrown off my original time table pretty drastically, which is why I haven't been able to meet my "new update every week" statement I made back in January, and this is also the reason why we never put out any solid release dates until we are very close to releasing, as r/l things like this can totally throw off these dates. But the entire team is still working really hard on the v1.4 release, with naturally Falklands content being a big part of that which all the devs are working on, but its going to be a bit before everything is ready for a full release

Cheers.

I'm sorry to hear that, I assume I speak for everyone when we wish you and your family (your father especially) the speediest of recoveries. Thank you for your honesty in regards to this update, and although I am a little disappointed to hear that, I understand real life can really throw some curveballs. Get to feeling better and make what progress you can. This community isn't going anywhere!

Hi Rhino, I haven't posted before but recently decided to give PR a try and love it. I just want to say that while we all appreciate your contributions to this great mod, family comes first. Please take the time you need to be with and there for your family. We'll all be here when you're ready to make a triumphant return!

Dear PR devs,

As a long long time fan or your amazing game and the right arm of the free world, I was wondering, have you ever thought about making the fal sights a little less........bad? The G3 iron sights are by far and away the best irons in the game and make playing mec on muttrah or sbeneh a real treat. But the fal.......that fat front post and that rear aperture that obscures just the wrong part of the screen. Also it seems to have significantly more recoil than the G3, although if I'm wrong and its just me then fair enough.

Thank you.

So sorry to hear about those troubles Rhino. I hope things start to turn around for you. Looking forward to the update!

Cheers guys for the support

My dad is finally out of Hospital now, still no idea what type of flu it was but he was finally diagnosed this week with interstitial pneumonia which wasn't a result of the flu, but the flu weekend his immune system for it to become apparent and could be a result of a lot of things, which waiting for the test results on still to determine exactly what, but is much better now and should be curable but will be some time before he is 100% again.


Anyways almost back into the swing of things myself and another little tease for you guys, shouldn't be hard to guess what this one is

Diffuse:


Normal:


Spec:

Ye, our FN FAL model is unfortunately pretty bad all round with lots of errors, both modelling/uv/texturing errors, as well as errors to the real life design, and I had hoped we would have been able totally replace it with a new model but unfortunately, we haven't been able to

We might be able to look into improving the irons a little for the next release thou

A torpedo launcher or a big canon.

we need this

Deep, deep inside me I am praying that 1.4 will be released this Saturday, 2nd of April, the date 14 (edit oops: 34) years ago that the Falkland war officially started.

But then reality strikes and it is probably way to soon?.. June 14th then? Ending of the war and 14 (edit oops: 34) years ago, would be a nice combo.

14 years?

*34

2016 - 1982 = 34
