Hello everyone.

Some of you may remember me from a few years back. I have mostly been a follower of this mod rather then a developer although I did some mission testing for laddie from hell back in the day.

Anyhow I haven't been playing OFP for many years and so I did not really keep up with the community for awhile. But I recently saw that you guys have shifted to the ARMA 2 game engine for the mod. I actually have owned ARMA 2 for some time but only recently got a great PC to play it on. So I thought why not get involved with the mod again since I really love ARMA 2?

Also if anyone in the community would like to chat with or just keep in touch with me add me on steam. Steam name is: MASTER STEW :

and if you wish to add me on Facebook or something else message me.

Finally I am currently working part time so I may be able to help test someone missions and give feedback. Also could someone please link me tutorials for mission making or even model making in ARMA 2? I could learn a bit and see if its something I can do to help and If anyone needs a lore question about 40K answered just give me a shout.

Alright Thanks for reading the very long post to the end lol! Everyone take care and have fun B-)

Stuart.

Welcome back lieutenant_polo. :)

With regard to modelling.What kind of software are you familiar with?
Members on these boards have varying levels of experience with a few
different applications.Like Sketchup,Max,Maya and Blender amongst others.

If you don't have much experience with the subject,then just choose one
and have a look around.Learning to use any of them would be a better
starting point than jumping into O2.It's good for finalising a model,but not
much good when it comes to constructing them.

A great way to learn about models specific to BI engines,is to have a look
at the example P3ds.You can learn a lot by studying them.

@Macser

Thanks for the advice. I have very little experience with modelling software so I am going to have a look at blender and see if I can learn a bit before trying oxygen 2.

@laddie from hell

Thanks for the offer. I don't really go on Skype much and to be honest I am a little bit awkward talking with people I am not 100% familiar with lol! But sure I can chat with you or the others at some point.

Anyway thank you all for the warm welcome and good luck with the modding. B-)

Blendercookie.com
They have plenty of videos covering a wide range of areas,for
new and experienced users.

Blender 3d Noob to pro
There's a link to a wiki based resource.Also downloadable as
a PDF.

Blender artists
Another great resource.And can be good for troubleshooting.

Welcome back lieutenant_polo...

If not a modeler, then try looking at configs. Get acquainted with them as that would also be a valuable form of support.
