The East Wind: Escalation [RHS/BAF]

Description
After weeks of work, I'm proud to finally present

The East Wind: Escalation

in a releasable state. EWE is the RHS-inspired adaptation of BIS "The East Wind"-Campaign.
Nearly all assets have been exchanged and most scripts have been altered in some way or another.
EWE also features a custom made FIA-faction, made with assets from both RHS and BAF.

I tried to keep it as vanilla as possible, but you obviously require all RHS factions, as well as BAF Weapons and Equipment by 3CB and CBA.
In addition to that, I strongly recommend you the following mods, that'll greatly enhance your gameplay experience:

DynaSound 2
Enhanced Soundscape
Blastcore Edited (Standalone Version)

Be advised that, just like the original campaign, EWE is not compatible with ACE/AGM, due to systems conflicting with the mission scripting. However, there are ways to get around that.
Don't recommend that though if you don't know what you're doing, and if you know what you're doing, you don't need me to tell you how to.

Despite the numerous hours i spent with this project, it is far from being perfect. Consider this release v.0.9.
Some bugs are still present and some of the later missions have to be playtested/bugfixed yet. All major work is done though and i'll be releasing a couple of hotfixes in the next few days to tackle the remaining issues.

Known Issues:

Format: <Mission Name (Missionfile) - Issue - Status - Workaround - Bug present in vanilla campaign?>

Resurgent West (C_in2): APC stops moving shortly after boarding - prbly. fixed - load last save - Yes
Resurgent West (C_in2): Unable to finish last task due to stuck enemy tank - prbly. fixed - load last save - Yes
Moral Fiber (C_M02): Convoy stuck in several points - WIP - load last save - unknown


I always appreciate help, and since this is a one-man project, i can need a lot of it. If you find a bug and want to help, try to figure out how to fix it and tell me. Fresh ideas are never a bad thing.

This campaign emerged from a small-time project to a full time venture during my holidays and i never thought i would actually be able to pull this off. I learned a lot about Scripting and C++, and i came to really appreciate the work and creativity that BIS has put into this. Credits and special thanks also go to:
The RHS Team for their great mod
3CB for their beautiful uniforms
Many people in the BI-Forums, who write wiki-stuff, answer questions and provide great information in general.

This is mod has not been updated and maintained since 2018. As of the latest Arma3 update, this mod no longer functions properly. There are a lot of bugs due to incompatibility with the latest Arma3. It will create memory leak and crash your pc. Like many other people, I really like real world equipment than futuristic weapons in the original game. I really wish the creator of this mod can update it and make it compatible to the latest Arma3.

Cool re-do of the East Wind campaign. It's a little broken in some places though (convoys don't like to move sometimes when time-accel is on, and the last canon mission is instantly killing the reporter)
The weapons and ammo box supplies don't seem to match up a lot of the time either, so if I want to try a new gun in the Adapt story, sometimes there's just no ammo anywhere. I also wish that there some descriptions on the items that were added (flash suppressors and all the grenades for example.)
Despite all of this, I really enjoyed playing through this and I think some of the missions were more fun than the original. I like that running over everyone with an MRAP is no longer possible because the glass is weaker, so it forced me to get better at the game.

@Arab Jahseh إِنْ شَاءَ Some people prefer a more modern setting over a near future setting. They like the campaign but prefer real world equipment.

@Windows XP, the content was for the most part created by Bohemia, the mod creator has merely converted it to use RHS and BAF to make it feel more modern.

It says that the thing is made by Bohemia interactive. What about that?

the 1st mission i can't get past the helicopter boarding. unable to board helicopter not enough seats

Great remake of the campaign. Just a few issues:
1. It seems some weapons are missing. Probably from RHS mod, but not sure. I keep getting "missing entry" error.
2. I am getting a lot of freezes and crashes when opening map during a mission. Not sure if it's due to mod or original ARMA 3 issue
3. Mysterious Cache mission cannot be complete. I search the house with mines but the crate with AA weapons doesn't exist. The other weapon crate is there, however.
