Is it possible to add 122mm shells from this mod to Zeus?
Dima Gray May 28 @ 11:50pm 
@Isaac It soviet, not russian). D-30 use also in Ukraine.
Isaac Mar 20 @ 10:15pm 
I never said an insult that mocked Russian ethnicities including yours if you're also from Russia. I mocked you and this mod's authors for supporting a genocidal fascist (Putin in this case) lol.

Well I am kinda sorry that I cant erase your russophobic racist comment....
Isaac Jan 11 @ 1:38am 
That's what you get for working with fascists including this mod's authors lol

This account of mine has been stolen I moved this mod to my workshop if you want to receive updates subscribe to the new one..
Ганджубасик May 18, 2024 @ 4:57am 
Can u help me with the mod? During the server startup, it returns the following error: No entry 'bin/config.bin/CfgPatches/artillery_maptools.units' .
gezahu Mar 7, 2024 @ 11:55am 
Well sad news is that some hackers from St. Petersburg stole this account of mine. I dont have access to it any more and moved this mod to my other account. I cant update it any more so I suggest you to click on my pic and go to my other account for further updates of this mod..

You find a fully functional (aiming circle, aiming persicope) 120mm mortar in my other mod here:

beware that 120mm nortar measures depression not elevation!
#BackYourWAY  [author] Sep 4, 2023 @ 10:06pm 
Me too buddy 120mm is a good gear... but I have a life to live :)
Britva Sep 4, 2023 @ 4:33pm 
But I'd also like the 120mm mortar to work again
Britva Sep 4, 2023 @ 4:33pm 
Thanks, I can now consider myself a qualified artilleryman using the D-30 cannon with just a couple of hours playing Arma 3 instead of 5 years at artillery college:steamthumbsup:
#BackYourWAY  [author] Aug 28, 2023 @ 9:21am 
I removed the 120mm mortar as it is not working but added a new maptool the accurate AK-3 arty plotter...

Video on the new features here:

#BackYourWAY  [author] Aug 7, 2023 @ 10:57pm 
I have added a big compass showing heading in russian mils, I have added a reworked maptool.. I will make a video how to use them...
Ame_Shay Aug 7, 2023 @ 1:33pm 
Is there any information on what's being updated/worked on?
Wojciech Aug 6, 2023 @ 1:08am 
That would be great. Please info about the update.
#BackYourWAY  [author] Aug 5, 2023 @ 3:28am 
it kinda works but very unstable many features dont work frequently crashes... I will work on it want to make at least the mortars work...
Wojciech Aug 4, 2023 @ 11:55pm 
Hi. This small success means that you have something? If so, please join your mod. Is it possible?
#BackYourWAY  [author] Jul 31, 2023 @ 5:32am 
Tushino has te greatest mortar mods. I tried to extract them but with little success....
FM1leev Jul 7, 2023 @ 11:58pm 
Are you planing to do other realistic artillery? For example: D-20 or 2А36 «Гиацинт-Б»
Wojciech Jul 7, 2023 @ 12:16am 
I have too little knowledge of the show, but I would like to put the script for myself in the editor. Is this possible?
Wojciech Jul 7, 2023 @ 12:13am 
Hello. I have a request. Was it still possible to add a mortar to the modification?
Xanax Jul 1, 2023 @ 3:35pm 
Finally, a real chad mod. Proably will not try it as a3 is so boring now. But really appreciate, great work. At least I'll watch YT videos.
#BackYourWAY  [author] Jun 26, 2023 @ 10:49pm 
Few understand the engineering philosophy behind soviet weapon systems. If infrastructure goes south I guess all will understand why are they so simple....
#BackYourWAY  [author] Jun 22, 2023 @ 8:40am 
I have used them 32 years, tell me bout them...
Isaac Jun 22, 2023 @ 2:47am 
Also, that's a myth. For example, AKs malfunction a lot if they get mud in their ejection ports.
Isaac Jun 22, 2023 @ 2:46am 
Then why has lots of Russians had issues with military equipment in the Ukrainian conflict?

Even some of their body armour has ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ plates missing because of corruption lmfao
#BackYourWAY  [author] Jun 21, 2023 @ 1:02am 
You dont need to maintain russian gear.. they just work :)
Isaac Jun 19, 2023 @ 3:33am 
Were my comments deleted? Because I said that the author was arrogant for thinking that western stuff is "over engineered", Russian stuff is generally maintained ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ badly lol
Shotya Jun 19, 2023 @ 3:31am 
If you want to spawn a box of HE ammo, middle of the mission, you can use this script:

_veh = "wog_122_ammobox" createVehicle position player;
#BackYourWAY  [author] Jun 18, 2023 @ 8:56am 
Thanks zom..But I did not make this mod, far beyond my abilites. This was a russian guy named lex. I only translated some stuff repacked and created some content to it for others to understand how to use this gem...
zom Jun 16, 2023 @ 8:49am 
Love the mod. Is these ways to make more guns like this?
#BackYourWAY  [author] Apr 7, 2023 @ 5:18am 
I know this is not for this age seeking instant satisfaction, blowvup everything with zero learning. Few will like it...
I can deal with it..
#BackYourWAY  [author] Apr 7, 2023 @ 4:26am 
but the best artillery gun... :)
I dont bother with over engineered western crap sorry
Isaac Apr 6, 2023 @ 6:43pm 
But exactly Big Guy, its rather pointless to use if its for only one artillery gun.
Isaac Apr 6, 2023 @ 6:43pm 
Never mind, I didn't realise this was a reupload. Though, I also asked him before about making a mod like this for only one gun and he got pissed off over it. Knowing some Russians, that didn't surprise me lol
BIG GUY Apr 6, 2023 @ 2:22pm 
what was the main purpose of this mod? when was it made and was it made for a specific clan?
where can we see other stuff like this?
#BackYourWAY  [author] Apr 6, 2023 @ 5:58am 
First. It is not my work, all credits belong to a russian guy named lex I did just minimal work on it like translation dependecies and content. Second if you dont like the mod we reimburse all money you payed for it...
But seriously it is a semi hardcore sim mod not that much about having shallow knowldge of many guns but having a good knowledge of one.
Isaac Apr 5, 2023 @ 11:34pm 
..Why use your artillery mods if you only made it for one artillery gun?
BIG GUY Mar 19, 2023 @ 5:41pm 
nvm it was an addon conflict
BIG GUY Mar 19, 2023 @ 5:22pm 
I don't know why but I cannot access the ace interaction on the artillery colimator nor the aiming circle
Pingu Mar 16, 2023 @ 5:28pm 
Sadly, can't access the shells through Zeus. Still awesome! Thank you for the reply.
#BackYourWAY  [author] Mar 16, 2023 @ 8:55am 
I am glad that others share my entusiasm for manual artillery. I dont use zeus and not really into multiplay so have not really tested it only in single player.
Pingu Mar 15, 2023 @ 8:01pm 
Hi Backyourway. I have been wanting to get my hands on this since I stumbled upon WOG videos a year ago. Thank you for bringing it to the workshop! Is there a guide for setting up the D30? I mean through Zeus in a server or Eden? I can always spawn the gun and posts but cannot figure out how to spawn crates with the shells or find the PAB-2M sight. THANKS for your work. ARMA needs more detailed artillery!
#BackYourWAY  [author] Mar 15, 2023 @ 3:27am 
Well it was originally developed by a russian guy called Lex. The WOG version is for WOG ace.
The difference is language, the map tool, it works with regular ace not the WOG ace, many dependecies taken out and so on..
Apricot_ale Mar 14, 2023 @ 4:55am 
What are the differences from the WOG version?
#BackYourWAY  [author] Mar 11, 2023 @ 9:45am 
I have no idea for me it works fine. Could you post something? A picture or whatever. If it is bugged I will separate the mod..
steezguinz0 Mar 10, 2023 @ 4:06pm 
is there an off button for the box of text in the top left corner that makes it impossible to do anything else while the mod is enabled
