R@S I have a friend who can work very nice with 3dsm.If he can make some textured models of this sniper rifles,will you add them in the new release?

[R@S]

Guys what do you say about the idea for placing some artillery cannons to the player base,and have an option during combat to call for artillery strike/support.R@S,what's your opinion? Could it be possible?

R@S:

You were right. After deleting the rendereditems folder, the guns show up in my character's inventory.

One question: in the mission where I have to assasinate Pedro Nunez, I'm given the silenced pistol he has but when I shoot him with it, all the natives go hostile. If I escape without killing everyone else, the quest fails and Tanya gets pissed off. If I rat out Vittori de Castigo to Pedro, the natives kill him and the quest still fails. Is there a way to complete this succesfully or am I supposed to fail the quest?

If anyone except your squad mates see you - you get detected, everyone turns hostile. use your other mercs to distract everyone. The problem is - this "visibility" in my experience sometimes crosses walls even, so look around for that special AI, who sees you, walk/run/sprint (noisy ) with some merc away from action, then all the AI's look at him, and your'e free to kill him.

Similar tricks were needed in at least two other cases

I think the time of day you attempt this matters as well. Try for around 3 A.M. if i remember correctly. Offing the corrupt doctor in Cali-Cantinos works the same way. Oh, and don't forget to put the gun back on the corpse after.

R@S, I am having a small problem with trying to hire Ali, the best heavy weapons merc by far. I don't think this has anything to do with the Blue Sun mod, but thought I would ask. I picked Cameron as my main merc and Ali still refuses to stay in my squad for more than a minute. He accepts the 1 day / 1 week / 1 month contract but then goes on his little tirade about working for the white man and just leaves. At least he doesn't outright refuse to join up if my main is Ivan or one of the other white mercs. Is there a way to disable his bias against white people? I figure if I am willing to pay his high wage he shouldn't care if his salary is coming from an albino Justin Beiber wearing an all white suit.

No go. I've tried everything. I have my three other team mates next to the natives and they are all staring at them when they run, with their backs turned to the assassin. Another one is distracting Vittori and that Marco guy. There are three groups of natives. One of them is unattended and is the farthest one, close to the bottom exit point because I don't have that many mercs. My guys get detected right away. Pedro can obviously see me because there isn't a way to kill him in one shot in the head from far away with that gun. There is also a local woman about 20 meters away but she is looking away from us. I'm really growing desperate here. I can't off the $%@#$%. I'm about to try and time some explosions with Paquito's mine remote. I can't think of anything else.

A few other questions if I may. I got an SKS carbine with a bayonet which I stashed in a box in the army base (nasty business that base. Ended up killing the valet parking who was hit by grenade fragments and went hostile, hope he wasn't important). The problem is that whenever I try to pick the weapon up, the game CTDs.

What is the point of buying slaves? They have PITIFUL stats!
