Well I did switch the weapons around (gun on the left, rockets on the right) so that's so far the only major change. I wanted to use the 30mm from the Kajman but it wouldn't fire from the right spot, as it would "fire" from the centerline and with the gun offset it doesn't look right... So I'm sticking with the 20mm from the Blackfoot as that works fine and is enough for government work, even if the 3D model isn't "Correct". And frankly I have enough to do as it is so it works, looks right, so therefore will stay that way.

And some more work (got the pink right):

wip1000.jpg

And some Carrier MTP work. I like the green but I'm a bit OCD with it so....

wip999.jpg

The original work was done by PanzerMyer on DeviantArt so not my work as I'm still tweaking it a bit.

I like the MTP work. Wish the entire uniform consisted of the same texture.

I can see what I can do since I have a template from Armaholic.

On second thought it turned out better with a few tweaks:

This is what the BI uniforms should have looked like. Good work!

Made a cheap Flare Gun for the helos, it carries 2 plus the default variety of flares:

Some other work with some of the vests:

wip1012.jpg

Yes thank you, I'm aware that the US Marine Corps have tan vests instead of MTP but my small gaming group has a couple Marines in it and they haven't complained. Regardless though I did up the damage resistance, which for some reason was pathetically low so it's a bit better than the BIS standard, which wasn't in any way realistic

And yes, WIP of the Medevac version of the UH-60:

Well i am pretty sure no single US Force unit is wearing British MTP Camo equipment or clothes.

Reguardless - you ran into the BIS Reskin trap they setup on all Platecarriers that only came in Plain color, all Similar Magazine Flaps have the same UV Cord, therefor effects you add and camo you bring on top of it will be the exact same for every Magpouch.

Nice work on the DAP, its lookin really gud, yis.

I also highly approve of the pink 50. Cal Pink 50. Cal proof

Well given the reference photos I've seen plenty of US Army personnel wearing Multicam. i only use the game name ("MTP") for easy reference, but i term it "Multicam" because that's what it is. And besides the US Army is moving to the "Scorpion" camo next month.

Anyway thanks but yeah I pretty much got tired of just plain equipment and wanted to tune it to my tastes.

Speaking of realism issues... It was brought up in a Steam conversation that the plain Jane UH-60s will be called "UH-60s" but will still mount the miniguns in lieu of the M240s as in real life (MH-60s do carry Minis though) that the line birds the US Army operates. I've gotten quite annoyed at how adding a capability to a helicopter breaks something else and for the past week been tearing my hair out at that thing of helicopter modding. Besides I like miniguns and so that's that.

After a few hours I finally got FFV points done:

wip1015.jpg

wip1016.jpg

Due to model realities only these two spots will have FFV points, and it was brought up by [JTG] Jack Sparrow that there was a version like the USAF Mod Pave Hawks but I may or may not, not sure yet.

Basic Raven Warfare Group work, still WIP but overall due to the mirror mapping (for optimization, thanks) so far it's only on the nose and the underside:

Lol yeah with the SOAR mod comes out this will probably take a backburner amongst others, but I like how it's coming out :D

And on the prowl... Been trying to fix that issue with the rotor blur but it's not liking me...

And a basic uniform tweak:

wip1030.jpg

Due to laziness its essentially a NATO setup (Varmin/KRISS) as well as norminal BLUFOR helicopter gear. I was thinking of using a CQBR but for now I'll just use this.

Also finally got the flares working:

Like my Wipeout skin mod the helos will have a countermeasures program (which will be outlined in the Readme) that can be selected, with the DAP having a different configuration based on the amount of dispensers that model has.

---------- Post added at 18:18 ---------- Previous post was at 17:09 ----------

More fuselage work, and removed the dust filters on the DAP version so far:

Also managed to get a basic HUD working for the DAP version:

The four pylon configuration did come to mind but currently as I understand it modern versions are two-pylon now so probably not. Currently the DAP I'm working on uses the 20mm from the Blackfoot and a pod of 12 DAGR rockets. I may do some Hellfire versions but not sure yet.

And last version to mess with, a basic MH-60M:

http://562.50megs.com/Arma3/wip1039.jpg

http://562.50megs.com/Arma3/wip1040.jpg

Right now I'm planning on Saturday or Sunday at the latest. Also not shown is that the sides will have four FFV spots (already working) as well as six seats in the cargo area. I know yes, that the real one probably doesn't have them but I"m taking a bit of an artistic license (configuration needs, so on) given I don't know how to set the players to kneel (would be cool if I could) inside rather than sit.

Disregard on the seating, WIP personnel bay area:

Other than that sausage fest here's the FFV positions:

Okay managed to get the MH-60M working so far, got the spots cleaned up as well as the PMC version. Managed to incorporate the 30mm used on the Kajman (as a placeholder) until Spartan0536 does the 30mm M230 ammo, then I'll spend some time and get that worked in.
