Friends,
A few years ago I played Arma 1 Vietnam UNSUNG mod, and that was great experience.
Do you know why in all american films about Vietnam war soldiers always shoot at bushes like mad when there is no any enemy seen around? After a few encounters in the mod I understood why they do it very clearly.
I downloaded UNSUNG mod via Six and it looks very playable, at least on my comp. I made a few small coop missions and I am ready to play/host it if DAMteam shows interest
So here is the poll
And if you have questions or comments - write them in this thread

Is it better than the Vietnam: the experience mod?
EDIT: it has ace compatibility mod UNS_ACE_compact and it was first hit on Google "arma 2 vietnam"

UNSUNG has deeper athmosphere (it was way better in Arma 1 and as far as i can guess from youtube is still better in Arma 2), units with more historical details, better maps - and ACE compatibility @uns_ACE_compact
If someone can teach me how to use ACE with UNSUNG in Six so that we all had same compatibility...

I tried the mod on editor:
1st impression: HOLY SHIT 2nd: MOD is heavy; I lowered texture, object and terrain details. Terrain is the heaviest I think.
Mod looks awesome, brings back the days when me and my friends played Battlefield Vietnam as we were kids.

I have UNS from Six, its not 6gb, and many infantrymen are missing at all - yet on my comp I can play with up to 40 bots relatively smooth
Terrain is the core of the mod - you come to understand what war in jungle is

I found a problem about missing content on one of maps I downloaded for testing this mod. Read me provided solution, shouldn't be too big sized addon. www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=8108

But surprise surprise, now some other maps don't work. Good thing I had back-up files. By now 50% of my ACE - Unsung maps couldn't run because missing addons. I think we need to create some own maps to play with these mods.

I suggest to use vanilla Six UNSUNG+ACEcompatible mods with no extras for now
The problem is not the maps but the absence of many infantry units on Bluefor side. On bluefor there are available 4 soldiers from boat crew, pilots, medics from any regiment, mg special soldier and few others. Almost all vehicles&air are available in empty version at least. OPFOR, Indep & civilians are all available
So we need self made maps which is no problem i think
