Yeah, maybe NATO Tier 1 operators just pool their resources in light of the emerging threat by CSAT.  I can always add a "Property of CTRG"-mark on the Ghosthawk. :D In any case, I haven't even finished the armour yet, so it will take some time.

You know there's the BW Mod out there which basically adds German modern-day conventional forces?^^ In any case, the Leopard is on my list, probably even the next in line. It's just a really tedious task to align the camo on the fractured textures.

The Merlin would be the most logical, I guess. It's just the NH-90 with round edges and a few yeasr older. Not ideal but sufficient for vanilla content.

A retextured Merlin would be good as it can sort of be a replacement for the CH-53G Germany already operates. Realistically they'll probably replace them with the CH-53K King Stallion or CH-47F, but you never know.

Ground Vehicle Update

 

Version

v1.30

 

Hey,

 

I'm just dropping by to deliver v1.30 - I'd refer to it as the Ground Vehicle Update. It adds four different ground vehicles in various variants in three-colour NATO vehicle camo to the package. I've already posted images of the Fennek and Pandur II, so to wrap it up, let's have a look at the Leopard 2 MBT Revolution:

Sure, as long as you don't ask how it got into the jungle. :D Turns out almost none of the jungle trees are breakable, not even the small thin ones. (Are you fucking serious, BI? Duh, off to the Tanoa thread...)

AW101 Merlin, first iteration. It still needs some work around the rough edges, this three texture setup is true horror for anyone trying to apply an actual camo pattern.

Awesome work man :wub:

 

Hopefully you will do some more rextextures of vehicles/choppers to look like german army stuff... :)

What do you think about rextexturing the M4 Artillery Tank and Wy 55 ? Maybe also an HEMTT?

 

Or the civilian truck as a retexture would be also interessting...

Small advice, use an extra camo layer for things like pockets, molle straps etc. Looks way better than just one whole camo layer for everything.

Also where did you get the base texture for the CTRG Stealth Uniform?

Thanks, I do that already to a certain degree. The camo for the BLUFOR uniform for example is put together in three layers in various rotations (~38 layers for the whole texture). While I know it's not realistic, I actually prefer the pockets and straps blending in with the other camo. I feel it makes even more sense from a camouflage point of view even if in the real world, the need for cost saving probably forces producers to patch together their clothes. I don't know, I might do some tests.

 

I didn't. It's the same texture as the basic BLUFOR uniform, just with different normal and specular maps.

Good thing BI is lazy, thanks for the info.
