I think the AFV´s and Tanks are covered, its the infantry and different support weapons that is lacking.

I agree.

Pergite said:
The OOB itself also need alot of remodelling if we are talking present/future.

True, but I think it would be cool to add/expend some other pre 1990 formations as well - brigade/battalion recon, engineer company, local defence/territorial/ värnkompni etc.

I guess we need to split up the work somehow. Most recent "Reglementen" are published on mil.se, there its easy to get the organisation right, then its just some fine tuning that is left.

I'm open to suggestions... I did tinker around some with the OOBs but quit because a friend of mine was doing a much better job... I'll see if I can get him to show up.

Hi there.

Wulfir asked me to get my arse over here, so I did.

Nice to know more people than me see the need for a thorough update of the obat.

I've been wrestling with the 66 for a while now, and decided to completely remake the obat early this year. When I learned that WinSPMBT was coming out I sorta lost my energy for the work since I couldn't be sure the formats would be compatible. But now I'm going full burn since the format didn't change at all (insert Ren and Stimpy happy-happy-joy-joy song as theme).

I'd be interested in contributing my work so far, or gladly accept help in getting the OOB and picklist part sorted out, while Im almost done with my take on the ToE (mainly artillery and AA left to do), or just to be a ballplank to bounce ideas off.

Additions I've made to include but are not limited to, coastal artillery and emplacements, amphibious forces and transports, deeper implementation of NGFS capability, possible layout of the planned airmobile batallion, expanded battlefield sensor list (ARTHUR, ArtE), MP and other rear area security forces.

Oh, and the official designation of the CV90 AMOS has been set to grkpbv 90120 according to mil.se.

Sounds great, and it would be nice if you could upload your OOB so we could get a sneak peek on it and see what we could help with.
I know that there is a ton of changes and addons that I would like to do, but you may have allready done them.
For example adding "all" our "rapid" deployment units as well as future battlegroup elements.
But it would be nice if you could upload your OOB in this thread, and if we could have that one to work from?

Btw, what kind of experience are we together sitting on?

...and what must one do around here to get this thread stickied? Even East Germany have gotten that privilage, and thats not even a country any more!

Think we have to step into the line.

First I'd like the update to be part of the game,
So any changes has to be entered as proposals for SP:Cammo.
And a log of what is changed, or just noting that Units/formations 500- are new.
(Best to check with the OB.manager)

Can't just update an OB from SP:MBT, it has to follow the standards of WinMBT.
Updated SP:MBT is a good start but a pain to keep it in sync with the game if the changes made by "us" are not part of the basic game.

(Imagine the work done when someone decides to change on value for one weapon and has too walk trough all OOB's findning copies, preferably with local names.)


To be continuated..

Note that my WinSPMBT obat is a WIP and broken. I can upload it but its just an incomplete set of units as of now. I haven't remade the formations and the new units list is not compatible with the old one at all.

I'll just remove the worst offenders of WIP inclusions and post what there is later today.

Wargame player since ~89.

Served as a doghandler in the airforce 95-96.

Otherwise just way to interested in green stuff that goes boom.

Its OK, I just wanted to see what you had changed so I dont start of on my own crusade, doing the same work twice.

Yes, indeed what a sad bunch of misfits we really are

Mkay, here it is (I hope)

I'm currently arguing with the utility vehicles and haven't gone icon-chasing for the naval stuff yet, so ignore these.

Pics and sounds have been set though, so if you feel like it set some things up in the "TEST" formation and take it for a adrive and listen.

Wow, this really looks researched.
The new 40mm A/C sound is rather nice(8 rounds of destruction)

I see that you have included alot of imaginary equipment as well, like a future tracked vehicle but isnt the CV90 chassi enough? And what plattform is the HKP17 based on? Tiger? Anyway, its good to plan ahead for better days

The Archer model really looks as beautiful as in real life. And how do the different radars work? Are they some kind of all seeing FO:s?

Did you have a problem with the utility vehicles, or what do you currently need help with?
