Skull Balaclava

[kiory 405]

Just finished this, nothing really to say about it, it's a balaclava.

Added phothoshop files as usual, hope to see some better textures than what I did!

[purepassion 22]

Awesome! Good job! :)

Especially since it's a real 3D object, it should look very nice.

kudos for including the files once again

can this be worn under a helmet?

[kiory 405]

Unfortunately not, I suppose if I made them as glasses you could, but that wouldn't make much sense.

Well, since you've left the addon open source, if people really want an additional glasses slot version of the balaclava it's a pretty simply task. They just need to add something like this to the end of the config.cpp and pack it into a .pbo:

class CfgGlasses
{
class None;	// External class reference

class Kio_Balaclava_goggle: None
{
	displayname = "Balaclava (goggle slot)";
	model = "\Kio_Balaclava\Kio_Balaclava.p3d";
	picture = "\Kio_Balaclava\UI\gear_Kio_Balaclava_x_ca.paa";
	identityTypes[] = {"NoGlasses",0,"G_NATO_default",0,"G_NATO_casual",0,"G_NATO_pilot",0,"G_NATO_recon",0,"G_NATO_SF",0,"G_NATO_sniper",0,"G_NATO_diver",0,"G_IRAN_default",0,"G_IRAN_diver",0,"G_GUERIL_default",0,"G_HAF_default",0,"G_CIVIL_female",0,"G_CIVIL_male",0};
};
};

Works pretty good:

I'm noticing I'm getting a missing texture error with the balaclava though:

Missing "ca\weapons_e\data\default_ti_ca.paa"

Which by the looks of it is a path to an Op. Arrowhead texture file rather than an Arma 3 one.

I'm getting that error with all of my addons, and for the life of me I have no idea why.

Aye that is, to fix it just open up the rvmat in a text editor and at the top it should say something along the lines of this.

class StageTI
{
texture="a3\characters_f\blufor\data\armor1_ti_ca.paa";
};

Just change that line. Should be at the very beginning of the material file. That is the default TI map for the body armor in a3, some digging around and you can probably find the other ones. So here it is in context.. this is only a snippet of my material file.. don't try to copy and paste this into yours and expect it to work. It's just to show where the TI maps are defined.

class StageTI
{
texture="a3\characters_f\blufor\data\armor1_ti_ca.paa";
};
ambient[]={1,1,1,1};
diffuse[]={1,1,1,1};
forcedDiffuse[]={0,0,0,0};
emmisive[]={0,0,0,1};
specular[]={1,1,1,1};
specularPower=100;
PixelShaderID="Super";
VertexShaderID="Super";
class Stage1
{
texture="bink_headgear\tex\tex1_nohq.paa";
uvSource="tex";
class uvTransform
{
	aside[]={1,0,0};
	up[]={0,1,0};
	dir[]={0,0,0};
	pos[]={0,0,0};
};
};

Hope that helps.

Thanks Binkowski, I'll try and sort that out later, unless someone else beats me to it. ;)

Add this to your unit removeHeadgear this; this unassignitem "NVGoggles"; this removeitem "NVGoggles"; this assignItem "Kio_Balaclava"; this addHeadgear "Kio_Balaclava";

[dissaifer 10]

Awesome work man, keep it up!

[fluttershy 2]

Great job Kiory - i will try a retexture today, i'll keep ya posted on it.

And again, as everyone before me said already: thank you very much for releasing it open-source, it really is a great helper.

[kiory 405]

Awesome, can't wait to see what you come up with, Ms Shy.

[viper[cww] 14]

Reminds me of the one used in Desert Mercenaries and Black Ops mod for ArmA 2. Nice work!

[MasterDon 10]

That's pretty baddass! :cool:

[fluttershy 2]

Be nice to see this added to your other hats, so can have one hat pack to rule them all!

[kiory 405]

Unfortunately, I had to unwrap the model that way as it wouldn't pelt properly without the seam there, but other than the seam, this is quality work flutter!

Well it is always a good feeling usin your skills you had to work out for work on something you actually like to do ^^

[Jynx 10]

would it be possible to make it a face? so you can still use glasses like the tactical glasses for the helmet cam ?

[kiory 405]

Well, it's possible, but as this was modelled around the base face mesh, there wouldn't be any eyes visible etc.
