British Military Beret Mod

[mihikle 2]

Hello all, this is my first addon for ArmA 3 for public release: British Military Berets!

DOWNLOAD LINK: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=25578

Currently it is using the stock Beret model with different textures added to it. I'll look into a custom model to make them look a bit more genuine as you could land a plane on the current beret model. It currently includes the following Berets:

- The Rifles - Beret_rifles

- Grenadier Guards - Beret_gren

- Coldstream Guards - Beret_cold

- Scots Guards - Beret_scotsGD

- Irish Guards - Beret_irishGD

- Welsh Guards - Beret_welsh

- Guards Para Platoon - Beret_gdspara

- The Parachute Regiment - Beret_para

- The Royal Marines - Beret_marine

- PWRR - Beret_pwrr

- Duke of Lancaster's Regiment - Beret_lancs

- Fusiliers (minus the hackle) - Beret_fus

- Royal Anglian Regiment - Beret_anglian

- Yorkshire Regiment - Beret_yorks

- Mercian Regiment - Beret_mercian

- Royal Gurkha Regiment - Beret_gurkha

There is not currently a Beret for the Royal Welsh, Royal Regiment of Scotland (there's several within it!) and the Royal Irish Regiment, all because they either have a hackle or a different shaped beret. At some point I'll be updating to include darkened cap badges for the Royal Marines and the Parachute Regiment. But in it's current state it does provide some useful functionality for other British groups that want to accurately portray their chosen group. Other Regiment's may be added such as Royal Artillery, RAC, 4/73 etc, but that remains to be seen at this stage.

The textures are not amazing (I'm primarily working on learning configs rather than texturing), so if someone who is a textures god wants to get in touch to redo them I'm more than happy for them to come forward and do that. Feel free to edit to your hearts content but please give me some credit somewhere and don't re-release (publicly) an edited version without at least contacting me first. You can contact me either as a PM on here or on my groups website at www.3cdobde.net.

Remember it's my first addon so don't flame it too hard! ;)

Planned Updates:

- Blacked cap badges for Marines and Para's - in-game

- RAF Beret

- Royal Navy Berets

- Royal Artillery Berets - in-game

- Royal Irish (will be normal beret) - textures done

- Royal Reg of Scotland (minus hackle) - textures done

- Royal Welsh (minus hackle)

- Royal Armoured Corps

- 16CSMR

@Kaxii - Might add that one in the future mate. My first priority was all the Infantry Regiments!

Woah were is my RAF Beret?

I would love to see RAF beret too being an ex rock.

[mihikle 2]

Looks like RAF berets will be in the next update then! :) I'll try and squeeze in the RA berets as well as there's only a few variants that come to mind (black, Commando, Para, 4/73 Bty).

If you're taking requests, add in a beret for the Mob (Royal Navy). If the Crabs get one so do we!

[mihikle 2]

I'll try and get a Royal Navy one in for the next update, I'll compile a list of any cap badges people would really like to see in-game in the top post, but I can't promise they'll all get done!

[blackadder 10]

any chance you can do the QRL

[mihikle 2]

Potentially, I'll add them to the list and see if I manage to get the time to do them haha!

Great job mihikle... Cool to be able to arrange proper unit insignia !

[doom_sharpe 10]

Can I please request one for the RAMC?

I say one, its every regiment but with a different cap badge :3

It would be cool if they were in an ammobox also

Also, massi has a good beret model. Maybe ask him if you can use it?

D Squadron HCR would be nice to have!

[mihikle 2]

@doom_sharpe - I don't think I'll go into huge detail for every non-teeth arm or anything not likely to be represented in-game, however I might add 16CSMR because it's probably the one most likley to be represented.

@Bravo93 - Is that the usual HCR cap badge and backing with a Maroon beret? Or is it the same as the HCR beret, as al lthis will be in the RAC update.

Heyup lads, just put in two extra berets to my config and I'm getting this error packing it with BinPBO. I've done nothing different to usual in the config, I've re-installed BinPBO and I'm still getting the error... anyone got any ideas? :/

This thread hasn't been touched in 2 years now. I doubt it is currently still being developed. 

[mihikle 2]

Hi, been a while, didn't even remember this was a thread! :D 

 

Unfortunately I don't have the source for this anymore, and frankly its been superseded with some higher quality content such as the 3CB Uniforms/Equipment etc, which I'd recommend. 

 

Thanks for the support.
