thedog88 4 Posted July 29, 2014 so here is the current standing of the ODST the overall has the leg and arm armor attached to it while the helmet, vest, and backpack are seperate items. many thanks to everybody that helped out thus far and im looking forward to finishing this. we will make different variants of course (commo, medic, soldier, team leader) and offer different variations of the vests too. the uniform will be black once we retexture that and the armor will come in various color schemes and possibly camo schemes. this way you can color code your squads for easy recognition. the helmet will also come in different variants with various accessories attached. consider this model your base, no extras, nothing special needed, model. also, this was a proof of concept on how i personally wanted the armor to be executed and, thus far, it worked out flawlessly. there are a few minor clipping issues that i will try to address at some point but other than that, all good :) enough talk, enjoy front http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/583532302653759496/EC744D01E558B020210F06A5B854C751C8369015/ back http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/583532302653762690/457FD29E13DBFF2F455A1C5BD2D49725E8026706/ action shots http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/583532302653764324/51B2DCE5B7918604F6A338FEDB7EF312FD8B7652/ http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/583532302653766853/BC65C36DC77EA98CBE655A25750FD1DC971AE8EE/ gentlemen, one step closer. edit: i must mention, the hands are slightly off because i might have moved them on accident, will fix, no worries ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
13islucky 10 Posted July 29, 2014 Noice. There's one thing that comes to mind though... It does look quite bulky, especially since the ODST look really sleek and almost cat-like. Honestly I think that the overalls under the armour (under-over alls?) add too much bulk. Perhaps one of the VR suits (if the community's allowed to use them) would work better as a bodysuit under the armour. Anyways, great job. One step closer, indeed.

thedog88 4 Posted July 29, 2014 i see your point and if they wouldve had the mlod available for use i probably would have used that to begin with. if it is available i might give it a shot as it shouldnt be too hard to convert over. i know it looks as if he had a few cheesecakes too many but its actually a fairly close look to some of the references i used. ill see, maybe i can slim him down a bit ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thedog88 4 Posted July 29, 2014 yeah this was one of the references i was using, so yeah, im still slightly torn, but i think its fairly accurate. in game it also feels pretty decent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thedog88 4 Posted July 29, 2014 working out some new things, and going to try to attach all the armor to the vest. see how that works out. in the mean time, here are some backpacks i have in game so far. standard pack, medical with biofoam attached to the bottom and of course como ;) http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/583532302664573124/55763FD2D705DA235A17CEA75A9EF070CAD6056C/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thedog88 4 Posted July 29, 2014 yeah i figured shoulders would work out, but what about the thigh, shin, foot and forearm armor?o.0 im curious if that would work, if not this method should be fine but its worth a try Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

connorwarman 60 Posted July 30, 2014 This looks fantastic gentleman. I've been a Halo fan for many years and am well aware of the expanded universe, I actually own the Halo Encyclopedia!(Along with all the other books of course). I'm glad you have decided to focus on the Insurrectionist movement. As I feel it is completely overlooked in the Halo games themselves. If there is anything, I mean anything I can to to help please let me know. Steam Name: Connorwarman Skype: TheConnorwarman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xidarkreaper 12 Posted July 30, 2014 Hey Guys, After writing this for the second time I am announcing a Campaign to be made beside this mod. I myself really wanted to create this here is some of the specifics this is not the finished product you may see way more. 30-40 Mission Campaign The Characters will have Background a of there own so you feel immersed and feel like your actually fighting insurrectionist. Big battles because ArmA and Halo. Real Voice Actors. Custom Terrain so you won't be seeing Altis again if we do get this Terrain Built. (Hopefully) I do also want to say I thought of this right before I went to bed last night so some of this will be changed I do not have any interests in downgrading only going bigger and better. Kingrey Signing off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I get your concerns on this we have a very big timeline to cover I'm saying this campaign may be coming out a few weeks after the full mod which we are aiming for at least releasing the mod within 4-5 months is how long it looks like it will take us to get where we want to be mod wise. I have done Missions before for my old Unit and long Campaigns before also. Not as long as this but I have been making missions for a long time. If I really need to I will release the campaign in sections like Bohemia did for Vanilla Arma 3. (But shouldn't take me 3 months to get out the next section of the Campaign) If that helps settle you a little. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These, while nicely done, look a bit small to me. That battle rifle was no small rifle, especially if you look at it when being held by the Chief while also keeping in mind that he's 7 feet tall and then some. It could just be me though. I would look at the scale of a FAMAS from one of the packs available for ARMA 3 as the BR seems to have taken a lot of it's styling points from that rifle.
