Niko's Uniforms Mega Packs

Recommended Posts

Great stuff! There's been a serious shortage on good helmets.

Since there's also a shortage on winter maps to try out Niko's new uniforms on, try this out:

Looks very good using the Namalsk winter shaders and Thirsk's blizzard functions.

(It includes both summer and winter variants.)

Those helmets look good, is that strap on them from vanilla?

Also I like that helmet model because of that strap, most helmets people add with mods instead (Ie new models) dont have good straps.

Is it possible to make a simple looking helmet, for example a metallic all green with no strap. If you're going for some soviet soldiers there's not really any helmets to work with.

Maybe just give it a plain texture, giving the strap and microphone no texture and changing the specular map?

my friends and i use your pack all the time, excited to see all the new stuff you are working on. Any plans to do the indie vests in these patterns/plain colors(there are a few retexs out there of it, but they are all pretty blah) as well?? would love to see that! I'm a sucker for the iotv.

Sorry for being AWOL, haven't been around for long enough to get much work done on this.

I'll try and answer some questions here.

Hello, do you plan adding Kryptek camo in this mod?

Currently, no. Kryptek is pretty hard to find a swatch of, and I haven't the time to replicate the pattern accurately enough by hand. In the future, it's a definite possibility though.

Yep, its the vanilla greenback helmet.

A friend of mine is currently working on some soviet/Russian helmets, new models and textures and everything. Not sure if he'll let me include them in the Rus pack, but at the very least we'll finally have some awesome east-bloc helmets.

Yep, that issue has been fixed, the next version won't have that error.

Sure, I'll include some more plain color vests. I was thinking of doing the indie body armor, I'll see how it looks in M81 and stuff.

Sure did, used Alex Vestin's as a base. Glad you like them, those took me some time to make. :)

Also make Backpack and Fast type or Obscore style helmet?

I will include some fast/opscore helmets in the next update. Backpacks I'll release separately further down the road. :)

Not a problem. :)

Cuel is pushing me for a release, so providing that I get off work at a reasonable time today and I have no more problems, I'll try and get a release out the door tonight.

Just the US stuff, I'll be done with the US pack for now once this is released, so I'll get on the RUS pack right after. :)

great addon, some amazing textures my only problem is the fact that they all have black boots, i know that in the US Army we use tan boots with UCP or with the multicam uniform coyote/black boots when deployed and i know the marines use coyote boots and the airforce uses a weird foliage green boot. just a suggestion, oh and on the belts, the US Army uses tan with UCP and multicam, just a heads up. Great work though (i am just tweaky when it comes to uniform, its a pride thing)

Kryptek camo is weird, but nice work... I kind of like that Highlander one I guess.. (the pattern, your work looks fine) :)

Yeah I am getting a good feeling those kryptek ones would look good for like Austrialian PMC or something, that's a good mission idea now isn't it :)

Yeah this would work really nicely if we had an africa map, the highlander seems kind of like a Savannah multicam type thing.
