Kydoimos 916 Posted February 23, 2015 (edited) Hi all, Started this thread for the sharing / request of insignia designs. For those who don't already know, this great function can be called as follows. Not entirely sure this is the right place for such posts (I reasoned it was related to mission editing) - but, if a moderator feels it ought to be moved - my apologies in advance! Anyhow, to start with, I've put together a badge for the UK special forces - the CTRG. You can download it here, along with the config data for your description.ext. I hope you guys enjoy! I also have badges for a CSAT group (similar to the BIS' Griffin motif), the FIA, and the Altis Police Department. If anyone would like them, just give me a shout and I'll add them!

epicgoldenwarrior 11 Posted February 23, 2015 Nice job, I too am on the verge of making some custom ones w/ country flags. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IndeedPete 1038 Posted February 24, 2015 Good stuff and good idea! Throwing in 38 insignia-sized country flags. All EU countries plus extra flags for Iceland, England, Scotland, Wales, Norway, Serbia, Bosnia And Herzegovina, FYROM, Albania and Montenegro. A bit too shiny though, they need an overhaul to actually look good. (Which I might do in a few days / weeks.) But it's a base to start from: Download Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kydoimos 916 Posted February 24, 2015 I could always have a go with a few nationality patches if you like, chaps? Just let us know - got a bit of time free today and tomorrow! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Private Evans 498 Posted February 24, 2015 Love the CTRG patch...nice thing I am currently working on some units for the 2035 setting anyway ...UK Royal Navy CTRG Commandos being one of them :) Russian Specnaz ( fictive 2035) the other http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198055404693/screenshots/?appid=107410 cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kydoimos 916 Posted February 24, 2015 @EpicGoldenWarrior - something like this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IndeedPete 1038 Posted February 24, 2015 Ah, that's a cool interpretation of the Albanian eagle(?)! I've reduced the opacity, gave it a more textile look and added some dirt, looks a bit better now, still room for improvement though: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wow, some countries have some really cool flags! @PrivateEvans Russian Spesnaz, 2035? I was thinking CSAT member state, great bear... or, if you prefer, in blue: Any good? Ah, I'm sure someone can do something with them! ---------- Post added at 17:38 ---------- Previous post was at 16:54 ---------- And here's the texture if you'd like it for an ORBAT marker or something: Edited February 24, 2015 by Kydoimos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
epicgoldenwarrior 11 Posted February 24, 2015 The Albanian flags look amazing guys! So much better than mine lol. Will use when I get home, do you have the picture I can download? P.S. If someone can find a perfect camo for like woodland so I can reskin units, that would be awesome. All the textures I find turn out like shet mostly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

epicgoldenwarrior 11 Posted February 24, 2015 Awesome, better way to skin than this setObjectTexture [0,"camo.jpg"] ? Like, maybe a template for body parts works better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Private Evans 498 Posted February 25, 2015 @Kydoimos ...using a bear is such a cool idea...will give it a try when I am back home from work cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

L3TUC3 32 Posted February 25, 2015 Awesome, better way to skin than this setObjectTexture [0,"camo.jpg"] ? Like, maybe a template for body parts works better. That's the only way to do it if you intend it to be mission based. Otherwise you have to make a config, and that requires it to be an addon to load properly. The benefit is you can make your own preconfigured units this way and you don't have to script the skin in the mission anymore as you'd just place them in the editor.

Kydoimos 916 Posted March 13, 2015 @Zukov - hi there! Yes, I realised I hadn't included the PAA format afterwards! Doh! There's the PAA converter in A3 tools if you need it - else, I can send you the PAAs of whatever you need. The PNG format might still work though - not sure. All the best, Kyd @Foxhound - thanks matey! Great stuff! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All the best, Kyd don't worry, i know how to work, in the author section i have to put Kydoimos ? p.s. the paa format is the only way for the transparency Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kydoimos 916 Posted March 13, 2015 @Zukov - hiya matey, just got in from work and updated the file - if you re-download now from the Dropbox link you'll find the complete set of PAA files :D If you need any help - or even, if you'd like a whole new insignia design, give me a shout. I could work on it as and when I have some time! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
