they look good but they look too similar to the FIA, maybe they can be an addon to the FIA as they would add more depth. Its a shame that the game doesn't offer more options for variation.

Yes that will be a FIA like faction for the Opfor side, the diffrencies will mainly be the rifles (katiba), the voices and the faces.

PS : There is already a mod adding FIA faction in every side but they are axactly the same in all three.

hey man, awesome looking units so far, will you making these addons compatible with Zeus?

and can you also make the russians usable for the independants aswell?

Thx. Units should be compatible with Zeus but didn't test it. If you want to use Russians as part of independent side you can switch their side. In mission editor you can do that simply giving them an independent team leader with 0% probability presence (if you want to play the russians, if you wan't to play against them just apply the same method for your playable units).

[General Kong 148]

Tried it, but they didnt show in Zeus

[sparfell_19 188]

I don't think I can do smothing about it (but I will look deeper onto it). I found this thread, it looks that you have to add a zeus module that allow the use of mods.

Edit : More Info

Edit 2 : Ok I found something that I have to do : LINK. I will correct it in the next update (sorry, I very rarely play with zeus, that's why I didn't take care about it).

Yes thx, that's what I linked in my previous post.;)

edit : Well.... edited 1 minute before your post, my bad :D

[General Kong 148]

right sorry :P

thanks man :)

One last Thing, do you take requests?

If so, can you make a couple of AAF units, a couple of "Special Force's" Varients, and "Reserve" Varients that use weapons with no attachments, and dont have NVG

One last Thing, do you take requests?

Yes, with pleasure.

I already thought about AAF special forces but didn't worked on it, I will. ;)

For the reserve variant : I'm not gonna do that.

Reason 1 : (quoting myself)

A lot of things changed in my mind about the addon. I decided to cancel the day&night versions of the units cause I think it's not very usefull and it overloads editor's lists. Same thing for NATO units with tavors but I keep them in a corner, maybe I'll add them later.

Reason 2 :

You can have the same effect simply adding the following lines (edit them according to your desires) to your mission "init.sqf"

{
  if ((side _x) == Resistance) then
  { _x unassignItem "NVGoggles_INDEP";    _x removeItem "NVGoggles_INDEP";
    _x addPrimaryWeaponItem "acc_flashlight"; _x enableGunLights "forceOn";
    removeGoggles _x;
  };

/////

} forEach allUnits;

removeAllPrimaryWeaponItems _x;

PS : I uploaded the 1.1 version that should fix zeus compatibility (see first post), please tell me if it works for you (it is for me), don't forget to allow the use of every addons in the zeus module options.

Edit : About the AAF special forces : if you want, you can post me some screens about what you're thinking about (or explain it to me with words).

here are some screens of what the Special Forces of the AAF in my mind would be

[General Kong 148]

I was wondering if you can add a new PBO that Edits Current units, that removes the NVG from the "Soldier" and "Rifleman(Light)" of each faction?

It could be an idea, I will try. But why especialy from this two units and not for exemple from Rifleman AT, Medic, Grenadier, AR ?

Edited August 12, 2014 by Sparfell_19

[General Kong 148]

I guess only if you can, but only the AAF do I see them not have that many NVGs, so thats the reason I think they wouldnt have they're entire army have them

Good job on these findings Sparfell.

I'm just wondering, as these are vanilla parts already included in ARMA3; if I install these mods for the purpose of mission creation. Do the players of my missions need this mod, or this is only for the mission creator?

[sparfell_19 188]

The mod create new classes (that do not exist in vanilla game), so yes the other players need the mod too.

PS : Updated Known issues

- Compatibility AGM 0.93 : Engineers and explosive specialists doesn't have clacker and defuse kit in their loadout.
