Great mod!

Awesome.

 

But I think there's a configuration issue between this mod and IF:LITE -> recent updated ver. on STEAM.

 

I can't see properly some units if I have loaded the two mods at the same time. Some units like HD versions dont show into the editor units tree (3DEN).

 

There's a way to fix this?

There should be no issue since all my units,class, groups have the _mas tag to avoid any compatibility issues

This is the problem with the IF:LITE right now:

I leave a message in the IF:LITE right now.

 

I make test using only this mod and works fine. I suppose is a issue related only with IF:LITE.

Just made an account for this post. I've just done a mission with this mod and it is brilliant, and exactly what I've been waiting for to come to ArmA 3. I've also shared it with all of my friends in ww2 units for ArmA 2, and they are very grateful that you put the time and effort into making this mod. 

 

Here's hoping for more content, I'll definitely be watching this space

Judging by the front sights and stock that Mosin Nagant is probably Finnish M/27 or M/28, not Russian one. It looks good however, and I wouldn't want to see it removed. The differences compared to Russian Mosin Nagant's are improved firing mechanism, better barrel, better sights (with adjustable fron sight) and a bit sturdier and beefier stock.

 

 

Some Russian Mosin Nagant variants:

Finnish M/27, M/28 and M/39:

Nice work, but why not asign the same factions as Iron Front? BLUFOR-Germans | OPFOR-Russians | IND- US, so there would be no issues in changing uniforms.
