Ruskiesrule 0 Posted January 15, 2003 They're not United States Colonial Marines, I think its UCMC anyway isn't it! United Corperate Marine Corps i think, it must be cuz in AvP1 the Corperation seem to have absolute power over the militery and can call off operation if they're to costly! Infact in the AvP1 story line the corperation tells the militery to stop trying to save you, but when the corperates leave the militery Pappa Bear thingy comes back and saves you!

der bastler 0 Posted January 15, 2003 Well it's not the action game, it's the action movie I'm refering to. I updated my page, you can download add-on and mission from there... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruskiesrule 0 Posted January 15, 2003 The Games Taken from the Film, exactly, why would they change it from USCM to UCMC just for the game? Anyways, nice addon, i finaly have resistance so i can use it now! Nice one! Gunna download it now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruskiesrule 0 Posted January 15, 2003 And the Corps have loads of British troops too. It mite be USMC, but i know it doesn't stand for what you think it does! And you havn't followed my advice about the Camo either! Can you remember what i said? And if you want sounds for the APCs guns just send me an e-mail, both guns actualy give the same sound. Hope you get to make some Xenomorphs, and maby a Yeut-Ja! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Koolkid101 0 Posted January 15, 2003 can someone post a link to UNITED STATES COLONIAL MARINES WEAPON PACK 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruskiesrule 0 Posted January 15, 2003 Ok, found it! Its UCMC, United Colonial Marine Corps. They're the militery branch set to go to all of the Human colonys all over space! go to http://www.avpnews.com/avp2/species/avp2marine.html for some good pictures of the UCMC Rural/Jungle Camo. You really should of made them in this instead, since Earth, and Everon/Malden/Kolgujev/Nogova are all pritty rural like! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianTerror 0 Posted January 15, 2003 I havent seen the movie for quite awhile but did the textures on the pule rifle look more like the gun in the AvP game or more like the one youve made for OFP? http://www.avpnews.com/avp2/species/pulserifle.jpg Also, theres some pretty sweet ideas for more troopers on that page. <--- I love that!

OxPecker 0 Posted January 17, 2003 Aliens was such a classic movie, it really disturbs me when people think the facts from the AVP game are more relevant than the movie. It is United States Colonial Marines Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

der bastler 0 Posted January 17, 2003 a little bit usenet... RTFM (SCNR ) Yes, right, I included light, you can switch it on by removing the comment marks (/* */) in the config. But... ...it does not look good! The player model has a different posture compared with the AI soldiers. Adjusting the light's direction was possible, but not for all in-game situations. I experimentated with a flashlight following the head's movements -even worse. In addition, sometimes the light doesn't follow the lamp i.e. the base point of the cone of light gets stuck for a few seconds. Conclusion: A functioning flashlight would have reduced the overall quality of the add-on. My solution: Remove the flashlight in the config but not in the model. Let's say light-in-the-night is optional. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruskiesrule 0 Posted January 17, 2003 Well, all we need now is a motion scanner script! And does the sholderlamp follow the head movement? You gunna make a smartgun? I know its not gunna fit the player model but it'll give somthing to go with the m60 and pk! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruskiesrule 0 Posted January 17, 2003 Yo, i've realized that they are called USCM, but i'm sure i've heard them being called UCMCs. And the games do follow to the book, cept for that AVP1 M41 RPG launcher thingy. I'll check out the aliens time-line, but the US in aliens can't mean the same as the current US, cuz theirs loads of English speaking marines, one of them that i have seen is a pilot. And the Aliens universe is the same as AvP and Predator, because if you check at the end of Predator 2, you will see, in the trophy cabnet for the predators, a Xenomorph drone skull (Thats a normal alien to most of yous!. You could already easily make a Yuet-Ja (Thats a Predator to most of yous), I mite not be able to make the plasma caster (Sholder cannon) very well, but you could make a spear gun and a plasma pistol!

Starr-QSF- 0 Posted January 18, 2003 Okay, just to clear this up... this is an excerpt from the Colonial Marines Techincal Manual... </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">The United States Colonial Marine Corps is America's interstellar force-in-readiness. This role, distinct from that of the US Army, stems from the country's position as a starfaring, colonising power, and its leading role within the structure of the United Americas.<span id='postcolor'> </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">The USCM is fully integrated into the joint command structure of the United Americas Allied Command (UAAC) and forms the major striking element of the UA forces. Within the UAAC, the COlonial Marine Corps is tasked with maintaining the collective security of all UA signatories and their recognized interstellar colonies within the frontiers of the Network. Operating in tandem with local forces, the USCM is often the first line of defense and the vanguard of any counterattack.<span id='postcolor'> I know for a fact that in AvP 1 it is the USCM, I don't know right off hand about AvP 2, but I doubt that it is anything different. Now, just some things I'd like to point out... mainly just little critiques, cause overall the mod is great! It just could some nice spit and polish! 1. The standard side arm of the USCM is NOT the VP70! It is the M4A3. It is a 9mm pistol made mainly of steel alloys and uses a 12 cartridge magazine. 2. The M42A doesn't sound like the M41A... I dunno why you made it that way, probably because there is no actual sound sample of it, but the M42A would sound different. It uses a different round, the 10mm x 28mm cartridge. This is the same ammo used by the M56 Smart Gun, so if anything, the M42A would sound more like a M56 then a pulse rifle. 3. I believe you forgot the camera on the right side of the helmet. :-D 4. The standard Marine also has a small grenade bandolier on his torso armor running for the right shoulder harness to the belt, and a combat knife in the same position on the left. They have one ammo box on their right side for ammunition, and I didn't notice if you modeled the groin armor.. Overall really good! I'm glad someone's bringing this stuff into OFP. I'm just nitpicking about stuff cause I really love the Alien universe and want to see it done right. If you really want to make this a huge mod, you could model some Beebops and Falangists for the USCM to fight against.. It'd be a lot easier then having to model and create aliens.
