create file CfgClothing.hpp in Rootfolder of the Mission.

put in:

class CfgClothing {

class U_Rangemaster {

texture = "\textures\cop\cop_uniform.paa";

No.

 

But you can put:

 

this setObjectTextureGlobal [0, "\textures\cop\cop_uniform.paa"];

 

in the init of your cop unit(s).....

No.

 

But you can put:

 

this setObjectTextureGlobal [0, "\textures\cop\cop_uniform.paa"];

 

in the init of your cop unit(s).....

and if i put it into the mod.cpp of a serverside mod with:

class CfgClothing {

class U_Rangemaster {

texture = "Altis_Life.Altis\textures\cop\cop_uniform.paa";

displayName = "Police Uniform";

};

};

I want to find a new way to texture this stuff

Then the players need to have the mod to get the texture.....

But the texture is in the mission they download when joining Server

Might want to just use setObjectTextureGlobal to apply the mission based texture to specific uniforms?

Yes. I agree that it should work. But unless they change something in the engine, it doesn't.....

So just to be clear, I'm guessing you want to have a police uniform that doesn't require users downloading a mod?

So you're including the uniform colour map in the mission file and now you want to know how to apply the texture to a unit/player?

 

In which case the easiest way is probably what Kylana/Dredd said, either putting something along the lines of 

this setObjectTextureGlobal [0, "\textures\cop\cop_uniform.paa"];

In the init of each unit you want to use the texture. Or having a script to replace the texture based on the uniform class name.

 

Also as above, when you're doing the directory you don't need to list the file name such as 

texture = "Altis_Life.Altis\textures\cop\cop_uniform.paa";

"Altis_Life.Altis" can be deleted
