Recommended Posts

Western guys are getting a bit of a makeover for next version, I'll post screenshots when they are done.

Awesome :D I hope they actually stay with their home town camouflage!

The models are being re-worked so that they use the BIS CDF Camo instead (looks better than the one I threw together).

If your perhaps are planning to add some sort of differ soldier version in western, here is my idea, a soldier normal one but without a helmet but with this http://www.armygear.net/armygear/images/items/USMC8ptcapDWD-lg.jpg cap style in their home camouflage? i gotta say it would look epic with the western uniform!

Perhaps a M60A3 for the westernized CDF?

http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=9777 - CM-170 Fouga Magister recon style plane? tested it and hell its fast + it has some weapons

Will come up with more ideas later on, really hope this mod will become something nice, thats why I adopted the idea of CDF and used PCDF as a mod for my unit :D

I don't have access to an MLOD for that type of hat. Maybe one day when the ArmA 2 MLODs get released (questioning whether or not it will ever happen).

I can add the OA M60 to the Western CDF, no issue there.

I've asked the author of the CM-170 for permission before, but he never got back to me.

I have looked around and I have seen that there is one unit in the CDF (normal) that has a cap like that. I will find him in the editor and give you a picture of him! Will edit in 3-5 min!

EDIT: Heres the guy! his a "Militia" from normal CDF, you aint able to modify this guy?

P.S. I think a bit darker CDF camouflage looks better

very nice!

I must say, I like the idea of having a unit without headgear, as it allows to use some of the stuff that is floating around here. (although I know it wasn't your real intention :) )

Seems like the update is gonna be a BIIIIG one, with all the improvements in texturing and units. congrats to you and your contributers on a very interesting and needed project.

Awesome! you managed to make the guy with a cap! Which models do the new Western Soldiers use?

Is it possible to get bigger picture?

Yep, ArmA 1 Infantry MLODs had one with that officer's cap.

Still PASGT, just re-textured them so they use the BIS CDF Camo pattern exactly. Touched up the SMDI map up on the western soldiers as well.

You can get a bigger (ingame) picture in approx 20 minutes when the upload is done (aka download and see for yourself).

EDIT: Download link in first post, 1.05 is uploaded and released!

God I love the officer model! it looks epic! I will play with this model 24/7 lol, btw is it possible to like re-texture the cap into their camo?

Either way thank you for the update! I love it and u too for this amazing mod!

P.S. I wonder if its possible to put PCDF into six updater? so we can update it though there.

EDIT: I think that the Abraham and LAV needs a bit of re-texture, it kind of looks like someone splashed a bit of paint together however the re-textured tanks e.g T-80 look epic.

Actually thinking about M60A3, why not choose between M60A3 and Leopard A1? the leopard from arma 1 works fine in arma 2 co, tested it, I think that the we people that give suggestion have to think we dont want to make them a second power, or way modernized (western) army.

Once when I was talking about a cargo plane - http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=858 I think that would fit nicely don't you think?

EDIT 2: What about some nice APC :D Not sure if it would be able to get them but I wish to see them in PCDF!

Played with 'em a bit, and the update is pretty nice.

writing this from my memory now, so forgive me if I don't give exact texturepaths :)

getting a few errors here'n'there, the T62 shows some white / untextured parts around the commanders MG giving an error message about a missing 'iranian' texture.

T64 shows a missing .rvmat texture

prsz militia:

I get a 'missing policeman.p3d'

oh and: yeah, the new western units look nice, but their clothes look a tad bit dark or is it just my monitor?

@sakowski: you're right about the tank textures, the T80 looks hot :)

Re the M60 vs. Leopard A1 thingie: I assume you mean the actual A1 model of the Leopard1? That thing would be totaly outdated. But the A5 would be a nice choice, although even this tank is pretty obsolete. Even more so when you think of the tensions between Cherno and Russia.

As for the APC: Vilas made a very nice AIFV: http://www.createforum.com/vilas/viewtopic.php?t=60&mforum=vilas you'll have to scroll a bit, but both versions are there :)

Thanks. I'll look at eventually re-texturing their cap, but I think it's ok as it is for now.

P.S. I wonder if its possible to put PCDF into six updater? so we can update it though there.

That would be up to SickBoy I believe. If he offers, I'd have no problem with it.

The M1A1 hasn't been re-done yet by myself, hence why it might be low quality. As for the LAV-25, I think it looks quite good as it is.

Actually thinking about M60A3, why not choose between M60A3 and Leopard A1? the leopard from arma 1 works fine in arma 2 co, tested it, I think that the we people that give suggestion have to think we dont want to make them a second power, or way modernized (western) army.

I believe the states sold M1A1s to Iraq, so I don't think it'd be improbable that the CDF would have the ability to purchase them. I have an M60A3 Mlod available, but not a Leopard one. I asked for the Leopard from Vilas and he respectfully declined.

I'll have to try to get a hold of the author.

Well then I guess M60A3 is good enough and its not so modern either way.

Hey gossamer, while you were responding to Sakowski, FlyVenom put up some bug reports. Dont know if you saw them.

I'll be adding Apoc support for 1.05 as soon as possible. Thanks for the release!

Just a quick thing the shilka crew in CDF does not have the modern units as crewmen :D

As well are you planning to make some sort of Special Forces for CDF?

Damn! I keep forgetting that damn T-62 fix. I saw it earlier and forgot to write it down.

Must have forgot to put that model for the police officer back in after binarizing the MLODs (Can't put already binarized models in the same folder as BinPBO is too stupid to skip over binarized models and then crashes).

Yeah the clothes are a bit darker, I didn't really have time to fiddle around with the RVMATs for the western troops. I'll try to make it closer to the originals.
