Not exactly sure what you're problem is.. Care to explain more..

 

 

I did notice you're using "model=" for the uniforms, try using "uniformmodel=" 

 

something like this

class Custom_Camo_SS: Uniform_Base
    {
        scope = 2;
        displayName = "3 Medical Regiment (Rolled Sleeves)";
        picture = "-";
        hiddenSelections[] = {"camo"};
        hiddenSelectionsTextures[] = {"\A3\Characters_F_New\BLUFOR\Data\b_soldier_new.paa"};
        class ItemInfo : UniformItem 
        {
            uniformModel = "\A3\characters_f_beta\INDEP\ia_soldier_01.p3d"
            uniformClass = "Custom_Uniform_SS";
            containerClass = "Supply50";
            mass = 50;  
        };
    };

Sorry to hijack the topic, can you please elaborate on this bit more? Also I have a similar issue on my uniforms it seems like the original marking appears well, like they are par of the model not just texture. Can that be somehow addressed?

 

To be honest i think you guys have different problems. His texture just doesnt fit the Height maps.. 

 

You say yours is loading the original texture for parts of the uniform? Can you give me the uniform classname you're using and I'll have a look.

The model in the uniform's config has to be a so called suitpack model. The actual uniform model is defined in a soldier's config's model property, and a soldier and a uniform are linked via uniformClass property. I explained it in more detail in the Characters and Gear Config Guide.

Sadly, due to some form of (yet to be addressed) engine limitation wounds do not seem to work on uniforms that utilise hiddenselections.  :(

Really then how dose some mods do have it ? is there another way ? 

[Locklear 214]

There's a subclass Wounds for it, with a property mat[]. This property is an array of triplets of materials (.rvmat). Example (do not mind the tex[] property, just use it as in the example):

class Wounds
{
	tex[] = {};
	mat[] = {
		"A3\Characters_F\BLUFOR\Data\clothing1.rvmat",
		"A3\Characters_F\BLUFOR\Data\clothing1_injury.rvmat",
		"A3\Characters_F\BLUFOR\Data\clothing1_injury.rvmat"
};

It basically tells the game to replace the first rvmat of the triplet with the second when the character is damaged (damage >= 0.5), and with the third when he's dead (damage = 1). You want to have such triplet for every rvmat of the model (and, of course, to have those materials).

 

The usage of hiddenSelections[] does not prevent this from working, but there are some issues when hiddenSelectionsMaterials[] is used.

Yeah I meant to type 'hiddenSelectionsMaterials' causes issues, not just 'hiddenSelections' having mis-read your initial post :/

So i did everything right but the uniforms wont show up in arsenal,they show up in the editor   

[ronen rond 15]

FIXED IT,now i still can't get the class Wounds to work any tips ?

[Locklear 214]

The Wounds class is a subclass of a soldier's class, so please try to define it there and we'll see. :)
