Using arma2 models for uniforms

[eagledude4 3]

I'm trying to use an arma2 model for a unit/uniform, but the game crashes when I load the mission with the unit.

vehicle class:

class CfgVehicles {
class B_Soldier_base_F;
class ED_Man_Base : B_Soldier_base_F {
	vehicleClass = "ED_Men";
	model = "[color="#FF0000"]MODEL[/color]";
	weapons[] = {"RH_usp", "Throw", "Put"};
	respawnWeapons[] = {"RH_usp", "Throw", "Put"};
	Items[] = {"FirstAidKit"};
	RespawnItems[] = {"FirstAidKit"};
	magazines[] = {"RH_12Rnd_45cal_usp", "REV1_flash"};
	respawnMagazines[] = {"RH_12Rnd_45cal_usp", "REV1_flash"};
	linkedItems[] = {"ItemMap", "ItemCompass", "ItemWatch", "ItemRadio", "ItemGPS"};
	respawnLinkedItems[] = {"ItemMap", "ItemCompass", "ItemWatch", "ItemRadio", "ItemGPS"};
};
class ED_Man : ED_Man_Base {
	scope = public;
	displayName = "ED Man";
	uniformAccessories[] = {};
	nakedUniform = "U_BasicBody";
	uniformClass = "ED_Uniform";
};
};

uniform class:

class cfgWeapons {
class Uniform_Base;	// External class reference
class UniformItem;	// External class reference

class ED_Uniform : Uniform_Base {
	scope = public;
	displayName = "ED Uniform";
	picture = "\A3\characters_f\data\ui\icon_U_BasicBody_ca.paa";
	model = "[color="#FF0000"]MODEL[/color]";

	class ItemInfo : UniformItem {
		uniformModel = "-";
		uniformClass = "ED_Man";
		containerClass = "Supply0";
		mass = 1;
	};
};
};

Are the arma2 models incompatable with arma 3?

Well quick question...why are you using arma 2 models? BIS released Arma 3 ones that you can use.

I wanted to use an already pre-existing model. Thanks for the link though, I'll try to compare what the differences are.

Do you have permission from Icebreakr to port his police units?

I won't be using his addon due to the "You may only use the unit addon in conjunction with the game "Arma 2" and "ArmA2: Operation Arrowhead" by BIS in its original form", thanks for letting me know. I've removed all references to that particular addon.

This question applies to any arma2 model, not his specifically, so I hope you don't lock the thread for the reason above.
