Yeah, I was eagerly awaiting the release of this mod! The most-anticipated release of the year for me, aside from Grand Theft Auto V. ;)

Oh wow, I didn't notice since I've been wrapped up so much in my mod. I think I'll fly some CAS missions for my guys.

The download went smoothly and without a hitch! These guys are even better than I thought!

My face when: Stencil-on EGA on USMC DBDU breast pocket and rolled up sleeves. :eek:

I'm glad you didn't forget about the Navy corpsmen. Awesome! :)

These are amazing. One man can do all this? I'm speechless; you've put big-name developers to shame. ;)

Quick glitch report: 1980s desert U.S. Navy corpsman (light variant) crashes the game to desktop when trying to start a editor mission as it, and there appears to be some clipping on the front and back of the USMC eight-point cover and army patrol cap with some heads. Some USMC units that have "point" in the name are wearing boonies.

Thanks again for these units, they are the best I've seen yet! :)

Is there a possibility we can get the font for use with the PSD?

EDIT- For those that do want the font it is named AllStar4.

It is avilable for free from the following location http://www.dafont.com/allstar4.font

If you google Allstar, you should find a font very similar to it if not the same. The font isn't 100% accurate to real life, but it's the closest I've found.

Noted Laqueesha, thanks.

No problem, glad to be of help! :)

Quick question about the headgear for the U.S. Army soldiers. Will there be any berets coming up? Cheers!

Yes, there will be berets for the 2000s. My Rangers should have berets too.

AMAZING! So much detail, love to see the military at a time where they all looked the same except for those subtle differences! Also, is the bayonet and flashlight just for show or are you going to associate actions with them? It would look cool if i could fix bayonets even if i won't be able to actually stab players with it.

It's for ArmA2 standalone and ArmA2/OA, though I only tested it in ArmA2/OA.

All the items right now are just for show. Just about all the items require a script which I don't know how to make.

When I tried to add the 119 radios to test and see if it was ACRE compatible, it said it was missing the config...so I tried to add all the other ALICE packs and I got the same error message. I did notice that on the medic Unit 5 bag, that you cannot add anything to the pack. I am using ACE, and I was thinking it would read it like a ruck so you can put in the ACE Medical gear in there for now. Is that something that will be added for more ACE compatibility?

The reason I ask is I help manage an ACE2/ACRE Squad and we have been frothing at the mouth for these addons for quite some time in the hopes that we could use them in missions.

Other than that this is really amazing. I really love how this is and I really hope the radios will be ACRE compatible...they just look GREAT!
