J. Adams 145 Posted November 21, 2016 What is this? This is the aim of creating another total conversion mod. Whilst we have seen the two biggest superpowers appear in RHS's USAF and AFRF mods, we are aiming to create a total conversion mod for the British Armed Forces. We have the ambition to replicate as much of the British equipment as possible whilst maintaining high quality. When? As you can expect, with a project as large as this, it will take a while so expect no fast progress. We do have a bunch of models ready to go, but they need texture work. So to answer the question, not for a good while, at least 10 months of hard work are ahead of us. How to get involved? We are always looking for skilled people to get involved with us. We would definitely appreciate 3D artists and coders as they will be critical to the mod. If you wish to get involved, PM J. Adams on the forums or add his steam. Over the coming weeks and months, this thread will be used to update everyone and to post media of the mod. If you wish to stay well informed about the mod and the people behind it, join this steam group.

R0adki11 3949 Posted November 22, 2016 Interesting idea, why not pool your resources with other British Mods such as 3CB? (https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/174740-3cb-baf-units/). I see no reason to create another British forces mod. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J. Adams 145 Posted November 22, 2016 Unfortunately, I get the impression that would be a no go due to my previous discussions with people who have asked about collaborations with them in the past 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless you intend to try and do everything the current British Forces use? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J. Adams 145 Posted November 22, 2016 Yea so whilst the 3CB team have covered the current assets used primarily by the Royal Marines, we intend on covering as much as possible, including areas that 3CB haven't quite covered or don't intend to cover 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J. Adams 145 Posted November 22, 2016 Possibly, if we can find a good modeller maybe we will include vessels. If we get a modeller though :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EO 11277 Posted November 22, 2016 I wish you guys the "best of British" with this project.....and if your taking requests, a red heckled Tam o' Shanter would be just dandy. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EO 11277 Posted November 22, 2016 Plz tel me wtf that is hahah The hackle (or heckle as it's pronounced here in Scotland) is a clipped feather plume that is attached to military headdress. The red heckled Tam o' Shanter is traditionally worn by The Black Watch. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J. Adams 145 Posted November 22, 2016 Ah yea yea now I get you. Hopefully we will get those done for all the regiments who need em like like fusiliers and royal Irish 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PuFu 4600 Posted November 23, 2016 Possibly, if we can find a good modeller maybe we will include vessels. If we get a modeller though :) do you guys have anything done so far worth showing, even if WIP... because this definitely looks ambitious, maybe a bit too much so (not that it is a problem though) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J. Adams 145 Posted November 23, 2016 Yea, we have plenty of models that cover the current era of equipment including Mk7 helmets, Mk4 Osprey plate carriers and so on. I can send some pictures to you on request as we aren't quite ready to show them off publicly yet :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can send some pictures to you on request as we aren't quite ready to show them off publicly yet :) no it's alright, don't worry about it, i was genuinely curious if you guys are starting to build a team or you already started work on some stuff. Usually you gather a lot more interest if you actually show some stuff that is done or at least WIP rather than just make a list of plans. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J. Adams 145 Posted November 23, 2016 Yea we just don't wish to show off a pile of assets that aren't quite ready for display. We should have some in game pictures soon though :) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
R0adki11 3949 Posted November 23, 2016 Well you don't have to show us in game pictures, you can show us renders of the models before they go into Arma3 ;) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J.

willithappen 194 Posted November 24, 2016 Mad respect for showing that you've got some work, we might be a bit of a sceptical bunch, but we've seen a few "We are recreating (insert countries army)" before. Best of luck lads! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J. Adams 145 Posted November 24, 2016 http://m.imgur.com/Je0cXbn?r Another image of our uniform. Currently we have two uniform models, both modelled off an MTP Ubacs shirt. We have one normal shirt and modelled after a short sleeve order version. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
