Description
S P O O K   O P S  :  T a n o a 
Happy Halloween!
  
[SP/COOP Local Host/Dedicated Server]
 
Tested on Dedi = Yes 
Players = 1-10 
Civ Presence = No 
Enemy Faction = SPOOKS  
Campaign Mode = OFF 
Length = ~30min
DLCs Are NOT Required To Play - Assets ONLY
🎬🎮 Video Play-Through by Reality Gaming and his crew 🎮🎬

SPOOK OPS is a dynamically populated, atmospheric and somewhat scary journey through the Tanoan Rain forest; with some surprises along the way. 
Built to showcase the new Halloween Mod ; "Drongo's Spooks & Anomalies" (DSA), this will be one very unique experience in ARMA3. 
Unlike the more 'linear' mission SPOOKS, this is a randomly spawned and populated mission. The AO covers a small ~1000mR patch of Rain Forest.

Synopsis :
 
    You are part of a highly equipped, highly trained squad of Spook Hunters; DeltaX.
    Complete your mission. No matter the sacrifice. 

     
    Enemy Types : 
    • Wendigo: This creature resembles a humanoid deer. It is fast and tough. When close to an enemy, it will attack by leaping at them.
    • Shadowman: These beings are completely black. They can teleport and attack with psychic blasts.
    • Hatman: A shadowman with a hat.
    • Vampires: Fast and tough, they leap into and out of combat. Can attack with melee and leaps.
    • Mindflayer: Slow but deadly psychic creatures. Their powers allow them to attack from a distance. Then can mind-control targets and turn them into thralls.
    • 411: Near-invisible ambush predator. Turn your back on it when close and it can pounce and kill in a single hit. Your best defence is your eyes.
    • Rake: These creatures are completely white. They move hunched over and attack with melee.
    • Abomination: Shrouded in a cloud of black, these creatures launch powerful stab attacks from long range.

    Features : 
    • Custom SFX.
    • Spooky Vampire Lairs and more.
    • Decked out HQ with lots of custom textures.
    • Randomly spawned enemies, both in type and locations; done using DSA's inbuilt populator module.
    • Elighten One's Self; Find and interact with the Totem Poles for an extra boost in physical and mental  strength.
    • Find your way through of the rain forest...Reach the Device and activate it!
    • Dying is not really the point here. It's more about experiencing the Spooks' ambiance, animations and SFX/VFX.
    Designed for Local hosting SP or COOP, runs very light with a few Spooks spawning in a localized area. 70-90fps in local testing. Obviously runs like a dream on dedicated servers.  

    How To Launch Mission Solo or LAN :

    • Go to Multiplayer
    • Server browser
    • Host Server
    • Type in server name, # of players, password
    • Choose map on left (Tanoa in this case) and the mission "SPOOK OPS" on right.
    • Hit Play

    @vanguard

    IIRC, that what it was like for me if I've tried to launch this mission solo through singleplayer. You still have to host the mission as multiplayer even if you want to play alone.

    Read under the title "How To Launch Mission Solo or LAN" near the end of the description, that's the method that works.

    I still don't know if the helicopter bug is fixed, though.

    It takes long to load the game? Because I was little bit stuck on the screen like a fog place with trees

    As the @DarkNinjaCorporation said in the comments, "The Device" never arrived for me too, and I've also found helicopter just floating somewhere near the drop zone. I've also encountered another bug, I think: I've tried to launch the mission solo and the player character seems to be immune to damage from spooks which ends in them just kicking the player character around without any chance to retaliate. I think that "Spooks: Livonia" has the same bug: I've finished that one, but I don't remember receiving any damage from the spooks.

    What you’re experiencing is the Spooks mod in action. It alters player speed and especially AI speed. Some of the Spooks will react very quickly and un-naturally to what you’re used to in Arma.

    Love the scenario but there's some kind of speed problems with the mod. Like it seems like time passes 2X as fast, when you run, it's like you're sprinting, there's a key that can be set for adjusting time speed (by default I believe it's - to go slower and + to go faster but it seems like it just doesn't even work at all in this scenario.
    Am i just imagining this? It also makes some of the monsters in there go sooo fast for the human eye.
    Please look into it.

    Argh damn AI 🤬 will have a look at it over the weekend.
    Might remove/rework the helo ending all together. Sometimes weird AI things happen in multiplayer environment as it’s definitely worked fine before.

    Awesome mod! Minor issue was when we got to the end and were waiting for "The Device" the heli didnt actually deliver it, and instead just floated 50 feet in the air 1km away

    Hey @Structedbyzazed I’ve really been meaning to.
    I know the AI aren’t very good at traversing Tanoa 🤦‍♂️
    Just got caught up in a few other projects. But yes I will definitely port this to a few other maps as soon as I can.

    In the meantime I have a Soooks mission in Livonia. That plays itself well to this theme ✌️
