PSD and PDN Templates for Independent Uniforms

[b00ce 160]

Using lennard's PSD template for the USMC/ArmA1 units as inspiration, I made a PSD and PDN (For those of us who use paint dot net and don't have any plugins) template for the independent faction's kick ass uniform. (Much better than NATO and Iran) I haven't done the body armor or ACH because it doesn't suit my purposes at the moment, I figured I'd share and make peoples' lives easier. I'm not worried about getting put in any credits or anything, so don't worry about any legal BS. :)

i'd also like to put some templates out, but for that a tutorial explaining how you in PSD easy make it so you can apply a texture without it going over boots and so on would be nice. Good job by the way!

[HorbeySpector 164]

could you give us an example config for that? I know how it works for the NATO uniforms.. just not for these ones. (don't know the modelnames etc)

There's a config browser ingame, pop that baby open and go take a look at the class for the green rifleman (You can see the classname for it when placing a unit in the top right of the placing unit dialog).

Create a new layer above what ever bit or bob you want to apply camo to and paste your camo. Move it around to create contrast between sections. Go to the layer below and use the magic wand to select around the section go back up and hit delete. Be sure to make the camo layer transparent.

This is how it is in PDN, at least. I don't use photoshop, I just have an import/export plugin.

To be perfectly honest, I don't fully grasp it and I have a hard time myself.

Here is an example config, the helmet model does not appear to have working hiddenSelection and the vest has errors too.

enum {
destructengine = 2,
destructdefault = 6,
destructwreck = 7,
destructtree = 3,
destructtent = 4,
stabilizedinaxisx = 1,
stabilizedinaxesxyz = 4,
stabilizedinaxisy = 2,
stabilizedinaxesboth = 3,
destructno = 0,
stabilizedinaxesnone = 0,
destructman = 5,
destructbuilding = 1

Good source file, and good config post surpher.

[HorbeySpector 164]

thanks for sharing that, Surpher.

[Binkowski 26]

I was bored today and decided to try this.. I used a mixture of these templates and some of my own that I made. I still can't manage to get the config to work, but I have them in game using the setOjbectTexture method. I currently have no plans on releasing these publicly as there are some quality addons coming down the pipe in the future, these are mainly just for personal and in house use.

Them glasses in the game?

Nope, part of the headgear pack I was working on that has yet to get released.

You should make the unit patch 25th ID instead of 1st ID. ;D

I've got quite a few patches in the works!

Could you please also make body armor template ?

Thanks a lot. :)

[b00ce 160]

Like I said in the OP, it doesn't suit my purposes at the moment, so probably not.
