croguy 19 Posted December 13, 2015 CGYU - Croguy's Uniforms - Ever felt like Arma needed more accurate uniforms of obscure countries, made with more effort and quality? Then my uniforms pack is just for you! THE MOD The whole idea behind this pack is to provide the Arma community with some more unique, high-quality character textures suited for not only the current point in time of the Armaverse, but the world as a whole! More notably, that of the Cold War. There's been a lot of factions, nations, and uniforms made throughout that period -- and I'm looking to bring as many of them as I can to the table. The periods I'm aiming at are just about anything: From World War 2, to 2035, I'm sure there's plenty of patterns, designs, and uniforms that should definitely be in the game. THE UNITS The primary drive behind the mod's foundation is creation of cold war-era faction-specific uniforms and equipment sets. Of course, that's further down the line, and what I got now is enough that I think it should be shared with the general public! They're mostly just reskins of the CSAT Officer with a bit of a twist added in to make them more appropriate, but I'm striving towards increasing the quality as much as possible for an entry modder of my type. Here is the current list of uniforms finished: BLUFOR Croatia - Croatian M81 Woodland MORE TO COME! INDFOR COMING SOON! OPFOR Albania - Albanian TTsMKK Bulgaria - Bulgarian Splinter Czechoslovakia - Rain-Scale Pattern East Germany - Rain Pattern Hungary - Hungarian Woodland Poland - Worm Pattern Romania - Romanian MKK North Vietnam - Olive Drab Yugoslavia - Oak Pattern MORE TO COME! WISHING YOU HAD A UNIFORM? Feel free to suggest uniforms! I'm always looking for suggestions and ideas. And, if you have proper materials, patterns, photos et al, I'd be extremely thankful if you provided some! It makes the reskins easier to make. As for other modders interested in collaborating, raw model material would always be nice! I'm looking for a greater array of models to use, and getting raw materials makes things much easier in the long run. DOWNLOAD Mega.co link CREDITS AND GRATITUDE FOR Bohemia Interactive for the model and base textures. Camopedia for some historical data and base camo texture patterns. Saul's Uniform Templates for the PSD resources. Facepunch Camouflage Thread for base camo texture patterns. FPArma, Broma, and Friends for personal advice on designing the uniforms! Stay tuned for more content! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Broseph_Stalin90 72 Posted December 14, 2015 Ahhh, East Germany, how long I have waited for them :D Thanks! I'm excited to see what else is added, or gear/equipment additions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
croguy 19 Posted December 14, 2015 Ahhh, East Germany, how long I have waited for them :D Thanks! I'm excited to see what else is added, or gear/equipment additions. And that's a good thing to be excited about! I already have some fairly long term plans in regards to creating equipment and how it pans out. It will depend on whenever I'll use BI or third party content, of course, but thankfully I have already established some things in regards to that. Stay tuned! More things will come soon. The primary focus will remain on reskins for the time being, though. BLUFOR and INDFOR-centric groups need some love. Integration of outfits into editor units is going to come around after that, too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nummi 12 Posted December 14, 2015 This pack would be 10+ if it included a few of the most used east-european cold war-era helmets and vests. That would be a lot more work, of course. Maybe contact some other modders who've done models for stuff before?Looking great nevertheless, thanks for all the input and work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Older eastern tier gear should be fairly simple to put in once I get around to it! But in its current state, combining the mod with CUP or any other pack which offers proper, A3 compatible Eastern gear is a decent half-solution to the problem. I do intend to get original modeling content in there eventually, though; There's only so much you can do with some of the immediately accessible assets. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our community doesn't use CUP as we see it's still in a state of heavy W.I.P, and RHS doesn't add any of the older vests or helmets as of yet. I'll wait for updates to this mod eagerly!

I'll wait for updates to this mod eagerly! If you're interested in other equipment additions, I know Killochs MNP has the old Arma 2 Soviet steel helmet, among others, which generally seems to fit most Eastern bloc nations. In terms of vests, then Tryk Multi-play uniforms have some older chestrigs that look very nice with these uniforms. Much smaller packs than CUP for adding to a load order I'd imagine. @croguy, I'm assuming it's more than certain it's in the future of your pack, but have you considered the simple grey/OD West German uniforms (Or French, I think they had similar uniforms back then) for BLUFOR? :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marder_86 0 Posted June 29, 2016 How do I find the uniforms in this mod? After installing it I searched all the factions but there's no new units. I put @CGYU folder into Steam/Steamapps/common/Arma3 and it's activated and visible in Expansions. Never had such problem with other mods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miketim 20 Posted June 29, 2016 Maybe you could make RHS mod a requirement and then also re-texture some of their stuff, they imo offer the most consistent high quality stuff as far as uniforms and weapons go, and GREF has alot of stuff like Khaki Russian vests that are perfect for soviet soldiers ( and for instance something like east german i presume), but their Russian vests are only really compatible (without ugly clipping) with their own Russian uniforms.

probad 44 Posted June 30, 2016 i hope the opposite, there needs to be alternatives to rhs for those of us who don't like their models. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
