Request for Help: Army Men Mod

Recommended Posts

This is a far out thought, but I have an idea. I'm thinking about starting an Army Man mod, you know those green plastic men we always use to play with. I wanted to make a mod for Arma 2. I have absolutely no scripting experience, and the textures are obviously easy to make. I'm currently looking for 1-2 people who know how to mod to help me. It's alright to tell me if this is a crappy idea.

I'm kinda thinking of it going along the lines like this:

  1. Green and tan and maybe blue and gray men, we can just use the current ArmA 2 ones and add new ones.
  2. Tanks and helicopters maybe planes, also green, tan, etc. Probably won't need new models, but maybe.
  3. Possibly a new map, for example, a sandbox, toy room, things like that.

Here's some screens. I only used the setObjectTexture command. So the tracks aren't colored.

If anyone is interested in downloading or helping, let me know please.

I always did love the Green vs Tan army men. You planning on making Blue and Gray as well down the line? I'm loving this so far. :) For the helis, I imagine you'd be using the UH-1?

I would love to see this come to fruition, I still have the old toys here in my room in plastic containers.

So are you wanting to do modern-style or classic-style Army Men(Vietnam-era equipment) because I'm sure you get a whole bunch of stuff for it by just asking around.

Vietnam, but the current models are most likely fine, but we can always change things. And same here, got those toys just to the right of me right now.

Yes, when we are talking about the King Cobars, then it's impossible to forget it, because we are always played by the help of these toys.:j:
