WHAT IS PROJECT TUATARA?

Project Tuatara will be an NZDF addon aiming to replicate modern weapons, equipment, vehicles and uniforms of the New Zealand Army, Navy and Air Force.

 

The plan is to first introduce high-quality Multi-Terrain Camouflage Uniform textures based on RHS:USAF or Vanilla Arma then begin with vehicles.

 

Below are some of the items in service with the NZDF today much of which I'd like to bring to the mod;

CAN I HELP?

Yes, as it is early stages it'll be great to build a team to make this happen. Send me a message on the forums or join the discord below.

 

HOW LONG BEFORE THE FIRST RELEASE?

As I've only just started, be prepared for a little wait yet, I already have a C130H readily available but the rest is still in the planning process.

Nice to see something different. I would definitely prefer a mod based on RHS instead of Vanilla, incorporating RHS Systems and Add-on Standards. Anyway, those are just my 2 cents. :) Good luck with your Project

Little update from the Team:

 

Currently we're still fine tuning the NZMCU, and working on a realistic uniform. 

Progress is coming along steadily.

 

With the C130's already done (Big thanks to Sabre) and the A109 in the last stages of development (Thanks to PetraCephas) we're doing well on the vehicle front. We will be equipping our infantry and SF within the next few weeks where we should be able to release a small media presentation showcasing what we have so far, and our roadmap for the year. 

 

Stay tuned, good things are on the way ;)

A simple teaser of the units WIP (Special thanks to Adacas)

Vests will be changed to Tan in the future. Don't stress about that.

We're still working hard, though at this stage we won't be putting a date on the release. All I can say is it'll come sooner rather than later. ;)

5 hours ago, First Sea Lord Kiwi said:

will there be a haka module

That may be seen as cultural misappropriation and may be seen by some people as offensive, which is often in the media in NZ when people overseas use the Maori culture for their own benefits.
