ArmA III: Operation JayFeather (A3 Pacific Front)

[LykosMactire 298]

ArmA III: Operation JayFeather

A3:OJ is a fan made non official DLC for ArmA III taking the players to the USMC in the Pacific islands (custom map will be based in the Philippines

This project will not have much progress for a while but i will say i have textures made for the units already and some screens may be shown within the next few days of the uniforms

As far as i know, this mod may include the Requirement of A3MP by Alduric to function because im going to learn to make maps and so far there is only A2 Visitor.

Also instead of a campaign, the story is going to be told in a video that will come with the mod

Story: Once the sudden outlash of the Chinese and Iranians happened (SCO and CSAT) NATO forces quickly pushed into the front lines, The USMC being the only Active NATO force other than the Global Partner Australia. And the USMC encountered a unsuspected Ally in the Philippines....the Russians. The russians had turned against the Chinese and Iranians due to their sudden outlash against the NATO forces which had a peaceful few decades before hand. The Video story follows MARSOC team "Titan" led by LT. Bryson "Tramp" Sykes, the 26 year old son of Sykes from ArmA II.

Factions

BLUFOR

-NATO (USMC)

-ANZAC

-Russian Military

-RFOP Rebel Forces Of the Philippines

OPFOR

-CSAT East (China)

-CSAT East (North Korea)

IMPORTANT NOTICE: this mod is fictional and is not part of the official A3 storyline,

Also the Russian Uniform is based that similar to the North korean SF mod that came out in alpha

I will pack missions to go with it as a stand in story.

[LykosMactire 298]

i was thinking of recording the story and have a mission version to go along with it in case people want to experience it

[Tyl3r99 41]

woop as long as the AI are optimized for the jungle so they dont shoot through every bush possible like in arma 2

should be shoot what you can see

[disco.modder 116]

I smell a bit of Battlefield 4 in the story line. :P

Great to see Australia involved in this mate, look forward to it!

[LykosMactire 298]

Thanks and im only going to use African Foliage trees once i do start not the bushes, im using A2 bushes for that, but i need some help on how i make maps. but as i said this project is just announced, progress has not been made enough but i will say i have most uniforms made

Nice to see someone else besides me sticking to the SCO instead of the fictional CSAT (on that, it should be either CSAT or SCO. SCO is really the real-life CSAT, just without Iran as a major player). Glad I've engendered some SCO love :)

the CSAT is a fictional group of middle eastern countries (mainly iran) that are allied with SCO due to the fact they cant join because the SCO only accepts countries on Chinas border

i may have not mentioned it but this is going to be the main focus once me and atin finish our other projects like the Czech Military Forces and the N-B USMC so id say it may a while

Wouldn't say that, N-B USMC is essentially a side-by-side mod with this since they're both Marine Corps and then hostile factions

This looks pretty interesting. I was kind of hoping that BIS would make a sort of Operation Arrowhead for A3 using the Pacific front they mentioned.

Do you plan on making reskins of CSAT equipment for the Chinese or radically changing them to fit how the Chinese in CSAT will fight? Seeing as China isn't exactly a desert like Iran, they would probably have to use different equipment (besides that they wouldn't use a KH2002 combined with a bunch of assorted Islamic names on their vehicles). As would the USMC, though you could just replace the vehicles based off the Namer with the new Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle (http://www.defenseindustrydaily.com/the-usmcs-expeditionary-fighting-vehicle-sdd-phase-updated-02302/, not to be confused with the old AAV you can see down there). Also of course, you would have to add navy ships. Maybe you could ask the FFAA mod for their great LCM?

The Chinese if I remember right is using something similar to the korean mod released in Alpha, USMC will most likely use modern assets with some more futurist assets to fit the time.

Well its not Islamic named with the KH2002 its just a nickname given to it by the Armies that use it, kinda like how the ACR is also referred to as the Masada, but their gear will be very similar but with AAF based vests, and with the ships im going to see if atin can port the LHD and the frigate over (not driveable of course) and the EFV was cancelled, we will possibly see if we can get BI permissions to modify the A2 models with A3 equipment (Ie. AAP7A1 with the Marid's gun with 40 MM grenades and 50 cal). and i dont know what to do for the chinese vehicles yet due to i do not want them using the Russian vehicles

Post screens of the AH-1Z on the USMC mod, and transfer the Marine screens here to since they're going to be part of the mod, because I want to combine N-B USMC and this in the final release

Yeah, that doesn't make sense. I'm trying to help you out here. Canton-Protocol suggests one thing above all: China. Canton is in China. So CSAT most certainly includes China as a member. Also, actually do some research on the SCO. You'll see that Uzbekistan does not border China, and that the SCO is really just an eastern military and economic alliance. It's pretty much the eastern NATO. But whatever, your story. Just trying to help. Not trying to be rude, or tell you how to do your mod. But it's the same reason I did SCO for my mod, and not SCO+CSAT. It's redundant.

well not my fault i had time to research it at midnight, and no Atin i do not agree with the 2035 units combined with the N-B project they are complete different eras. But i do think of sticking with SCO because it is more relevant to real world

also i'll consider that Antionne, i will switch that after this weekend

It is different eras, which is why it will have Men (2013) and Men (2035) so that we can minimize configs and keep the size of the mod as small as we can

Atin, you gotta remember that we cant just combine all of our mods into one, think about the people who download them, they may not want 2035 units when they wanted only the modern units, and vise versa. Plus this is a storylined mod while the N-B marines is to provide for the community good marine units. That would just make things harder for those who download by increasing the download size because the more content, its best to keep them seperate mods, testing we can have them combines untill we are ready to make the alpha for the A3OJ mod.

You guys sure that there arent too many projects going on at once? I mean the average human is able to multi-task, but the results aren't as satisfying when compared to focusing on one task at a time. Of course no insults, just a thought.

I've started to simply do as Sakura_chan refers to as "cycle" when one bores me, I work on another for a while and back and forth.
