Great vid... units look top notch!

[GD Mast 0]

Great video gents... keep it up! :cool:

[soul_assassin 1750]

Looks great! :D

quick question, what's with the panels on the BTR @1:28?

The engine covers can be opened for engine ventilation or sometimes for cover.

Looks epic! Question though, are those BI aircraft or ones you guys made?

The choppers you see are the vanilla arma 2 helis. There will come a time when we (hopefully) get permission from BIS to edit the MLODs to dress them up better.

Super nice video,no russian faction is complete without RHS working their magic.

Your soldier models are truly inspirational. It makes me want to redo my US soldiers. If you don't mind me asking can you give me a break down of poly count for your soldier model minus the head and the texture sizes. I'm really at odds with myself over my poly count and texture sizes.

I also have another question. I've seen some pictures of the AK-74m with blue tape around the magazines. Blue is the NATO ammunition color for training practice rounds and generally if not always if there's any blue on any part of a weapon it means training practice, so are those suppose to have blanks or is it just a technical oversight? It still looks amazing!

The tapes are very easy, its just a very common type of tape. But they would use anything they had really.

[kotov12345 10]

tape allow you stick 2 mags together and change them faster in fight

[BasileyOne 10]

Quite liked the trailer, great scenes and props for not going to the Russia vs US equipment route, I like that you didn't really get to see what was being fired upon.

Looking forward to seeing more Russian Federation stuff from you guys :)

That tape is manufactured in blue color since mid 70-s (less often - in black color). It's adhesive tape made for using in electrical works mainly. But in fact it was used to be soviet-style Scotch tape:)

Have you guys heard of Gruppa99? Just saw this over at Military Morons. Russian version of the softshell jacket and pants. Looks pretty sweet. http://www.militarymorons.com/gear/softnon.4.html#g99

Great peace of work again! Looking forward to let them march.

I immediatly thought the voice of the singer is familiar to me - I love 7B's song Osen. :)

Shouldent they be using digital camo?

[Stagler 39]

Shouldent they be using digital camo?

This was addressed in an earlier post mate. The digital pattern is a distinctly different cut of uniform, so the models on the existing troops would be wrong if they had digital camo. ;)

Dont forget this is only v0.1.

We have many other releases and im sure digital troops will be in one of them.

generally, in soviet-time, differently-colored adhesive duct tape, had different color according to their electrical voltage in cicuitry/networks, they are designed to work with.

blue ones is rated second from top and most popular, both because versatility and availability in-stocks/stores/shops.

Hey RHS team, a simple question. What armored vehicles can we expect in the initial release of the mod?

Can we expect all or most of the T-64 variants? What about T-80 variants? Are more modern T-80U/UD will be in the initial release or in the later ones?

Thanks for any answers. :)

You can expect the tanks from the T-80 pack, with many fixes and improvements. Other tanks will come in later releases. Besides, there will be much more to play with than just tanks. ;)

Thanks for answer. And yeah, sure, other additions will also be great. :)

But one more question, I assume that as it was said, if BMPT is planned to be added in future, so for example more accurate model for T-90 than the BIS one also can find it's way in to the mod, as well as T-90A, aim I right?

You know, I'am just a tanknut. :rolleyes:
