China - PLA Infantry (Alpha)

[corporal_lib[br] 396]

Majoris, I´ve tested the MCC MW and it works perfectly! Now we only need confirmation of the ALIVE compactibility (not my cup of tea... ;)

As I really like to play with PLA (made some missions with your units), it annoys me a bit the hand positions on the weapons... the LSW is OK, but the QBZ-95, the carbine, the DMR and the machinegun have the wrong grip, look at the screenshots:

(They´ve improved a lot since .2, but it is still needing a tweak)

Do you have plans to port the proprietary optics for the chinese rifles? Thou the OPFOR scopes suits them well, I would love to see them equipped as such...

This is what I have to report, keep up the great work, man! =)

After spending a few hours testing your units ( own missions, editor, Zeus, etc. ), I experienced no problems at all. Everything seems to be working perfectly.

I really like the new camos ( both spec ops and army, and vehicles ), it looks awesome. Although I miss the PLA marines from the previous version, maybe you could arrange a new camo with the new pattern but with some blue tones.

But summarizing: OUTSTANDING job! Thank you very much for your effort.

Can't wait for more content for this mod.

Excellent update. Played around with these units for a bit in the editor and simply amazed at the quality of the textures, very good work. The addon seemed to run great without any issues noticed on my end. Thank you for this, these units make for a much better OPFOR unit than the default CSAT.

I too must say, I do miss the PLA Marine units. Would there be any chance of these units making a reappearance, or possibly some PLA units using urban camo? The camo they are using now looks great, but would also like to see some other authentic uniforms which could be put to use in environments other than Stratis/Altis.

Outstanding work and thanks again for the release.

Agreed, would you consider making a variant using the authentic PLA camo from today?

Thanks everyone! :) A few points:

- I can't model or animate. Modifying the hand positions any further or creating new vehicles, scopes, etc. is impossible until I learn a few new skills (no ETA or promises on this :P )

- The arrangement with VME mod, who allowed me to use their weapon models/voices, is that the mod stays futuristic, while they cover the current military, to prevent overlap. Main goal of the mod is to be a more realistic CSAT replacement than the bug Iranians.

- Marines will be added again in the next update. This was one of the Alive issues; groups needed to be either 'Infantry' or 'Special Forces' in the config, so a new faction ("PLAMC", perhaps) must be created. Boats, naval units, and some new air units will also be included.

@DirtyHaz: Server keys are included, do they not work? First time making those :)

Update:

There seems to be no server key with the download from Armaholic, can you provide .bikey instead of just .bisign please? Thanks.

Will add this to the release post for anyone else needing the server key.

Can someone confirm this works? Again, first time :)

For the special forces, consider making the units use black uniforms, balaclavas and SWAT type helmets, or something like these guys

or these guys :)

Maybe include a SF ATV?

[Siege-A 4054]

Or some special forces segways, lol. Just a joke...

[smallhill 0]

sorry, probaly a dumb question but did anyone get the PLA to work with ALIVE and if so what faction-names were used.

TIA

[chortles 263]

@ the Segways: I'm guessing that the latter link was People's Armed Police, going by the Type 85 SMGs...

[supergruntsb78 67]

just repaint the PO-30 Orca its a perfect transport chopper for the chinese forces :)

[Iceman_TF_Timberwolf 12]

The voice bug is the only thing keeping me from using the addon :/

I love the Mandarin voices though, don't get me wrong! That's one of the things making this addon unique!

[steelthunder13 3]

The bug helmets are supposed to be some sort of future/land warrior system that CSAT (of which China seems to be a high ranking member) developed and is fielding in their Aegean front. If anything I believe the PLA portion of CSAT should have better gear than the Iranian ones, unless you write it off as them sending the Iranians off with all the new cool toys to test. You should ask the VMA guys to at least lend you the ZTZ-99 model of theirs. Just re-skin it into CSAT hex or the camo you are using for the PLA.

[Spartan0536 189]

well crap, I may have to get into 5.8x42mm Chinese ammunition now :P

[Iceman_TF_Timberwolf 12]

Any updates to the status of the mod?

[maquez 141]

could anyone please re upload server keys?

link for download is dead

thanks in advance

Serverkey available from this page: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=19913 (a little below the installation notes)

[Iceman_TF_Timberwolf 12]

Majoris, .kju has a fix for the language bug, I think. I'd advise contacting him if you'd like to fix it.

[katipo66 94]

Ive skimmed through the whole thread, hats the class name used to get these working with Alive.. PLA doesnt seem to work.

[someguywho 12]

Whats with the digital flora camo helmets? Surely a camo used by the PLA would be better?

[katipo66 94]

Ok I don't think it's actually compatible with Alive just yet, unless I've got the wrong version.. I cannot seem to spawn groups in MCC either

[dragon zen 16]

so awesome, just download this addon and pretty cool!
