DG British Armed Forces

[deltagamer 612]

Hey everyone,

I've got a new update for you all. You may have noticed that the title has now changed to 'DG British Armed Forces' this is because i'll be focusing on all aspects of the British Army, Royal Navy and Royal Air Force. This mod was formerly called 'DG British Aircraft Mod [Port]' but since there is more than just aircraft in the mod now, it was appropriate to change the title. I've had very little time to test these so if there are many problems then let me know however from the testing I've done it seems fine.

Special thanks to everyone involved, without their help this wouldn't be what it is.

The Puma skin is just a place holder for now since I'm really struggling to get a decent one made. If you are able to help me create a better one PM me and we can talk more about it.

This mod is still a Work In Progress so all feedback is greatly appreciated.

Congrats on the release mate. Looks bloody cracking

[sabre_3para_gu 18]

Noticed the Ridgeback Gunner bug aswell - that said though wow a really nice pack and didn't notice any Jackal wobble on my own pc

Really nice to see all this content coming together - particularly like the netting on the helmets :) though I'd probably use with the MTP uniform pack to give the DZ flashes

[Ketchup0434 13]

It would be nice for the infantry to have Elcans or SUSATs, but nice work! Trialing it now

Great work, awesome attention to detail. Glad to see a Lynx with the landing gear and an actual gunpod.

Quick question though, how come the kio_l85a2.pbo that comes with this mod is around 65mb larger than the latest release of the mod by itself? The one in your pack is 175mb and the latest release from kio is only 109mb.

[deltagamer 612]

@jordanbache97 I don't seem to be getting that problem. I'm assuming the problem would be caused by other mods, right?

@Anthariel, @kecharles28, @Foxhound Thanks for the mirrors everyone.

@christian2526 I know why the optics aren't working however I will need to figure out how to fix it. Its due to a change I made that allows both the hatches at the rear to be used and allow turning out/in with keyboard keys. Its not fully working right now so I just need to wait until the Turning out ffv update comes out for vanilla branch.

@Jonathan0434 Yeah I'm a bit unsure what I want to do with attachments so I've left them blank for now.

@baron556 Its because the pbo is unbinarized. You can just delete it and use Kiorys l85 mod externally. Just remember that its a required mod.

Thanks everyone for all the support!

[christian2526 68]

Could you please binarize it`? It kinda takes longer to choose it in the arsenal and brings lags.

[deltagamer 612]

Yeah i'll include Kiorys binarized version in the future. I recommend you delete the unbinarized one and just add his binarized one for now.

[corporal_lib[br] 396]

Great compile of BAF vehicles and units, Deltagamer, but I´ve noticed two issues:

a-) the F/A-35 has no HMD nor HUD (if we play with AGM or VTN, we have no interface of locking on =( ) and it conflicts with Chortles F/A-35 (well, kinda expected as they´re ports from same source files lol)

b-)the Super Puma has the broken HMD symbology, it is preferable to take it off or use the hellcat HMD

except for those small issues, a great release, nonetheless! Congrats!

cheers!

[deltagamer 612]

@Corporal_Lib[bR]

Kimi has sent me the HMD config for the F35 so that should be fixed in the next update, also the compatibility issue will be a problem that I might not be able to fix. I'll try to get in contact with Chortles to see if we can possibly help each other out however last time I checked I couldn't pm him as his inbox was full. Finally the puma having a HMD was my mistake, i'll have it removed for the next update.

[Flynn1PARA 10]

This looks simply amazing!

[baron556 10]

deltagamer: yeah I ended up just using kio's original release, because it was causing lag issues when spawning in units. Much less of a delay spike with the binarized one.

[heroikred 11]

I have to say, this has to be the best BAF mod out right now. just one problem i have is the camo on the uniforms are different from the helmets and the vests.

[cjph 0]

Just downloaded and took a quick spin in Sangin in a jackal - epic so far, just epic.

[jinougaf 11]

Just tested,all stuffs can find in MCC and zeus,no more issue so far.Very azaming you can add all this in such short time!:)

[bagpiperguy 74]

There is only one problem with the update. No flags on the uniforms! Lol I just like flags to tell that there British :D

[deltagamer 612]

Here's some more images of whats to come in the next update.

The Puma will get AGM fastroping and slingloading capabilities and there will be a new vehicle introduced, the Coyote Tactical Support Vehicle. Also bug fixes will come and there will be some new aircraft textures by TCBRUNCH. Below is an image of the new Puma skin.

Anyone who is interested in working with me to help make one large British pack can feel free to message me anytime as any help/contribution would be greatly appreciated.
