MattyIce01 57 Posted February 16, 2023 Tools of The Trade(TOTT)About: Tools of The Trade(TOTT) is an ambitious Arma 3 project to bring a wide variety of Tier 1 SMU weapons and attachments to the Arma 3 platform. We have future plans to expand past SMUs but one thing at a time. We will be using real-world references and connections to ensure the highest level of accuracy and authenticity seen in a video game modification to date(to the best of our ability). The release date is still being determined as we figure out the scope of the project, feel free to get updates faster and follow along with the project as it comes together in our discord here: https://discord.gg/fqdzJ9fkgW Below are a few of the weapons planned for initial release: 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rautamiekka 15 Posted February 17, 2023 I might be interested to have new guns 😄 Hopefully this project does get somewhere 😉 The important question, though: what about ACE3 compatibility ? Specifically the Medical, but at the same time the ACE Arsenal cuz pretty sure the ACE Arsenal values influence Medical, not to mention things such as wind effect and overheating, just to mention a couple.

MattyIce01 57 Posted February 19, 2023 In House CAG Handstop WIP I've seen this done in many forms and styles and I plan on doing many of them, but for the first release, I wanted to get at least one done and decided to go with this iteration. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chops 111 Posted February 21, 2023 Very impressive renders! What modelling program are you using? I've mucked around a bit in Blender. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mostly work in Maya for modeling, I'm hoping to cross into fusion a bit with this project. Do know that these assets are from many different artists as well. In order to speed the project along we had many models donated by artists and many purchased. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rautamiekka 15 Posted March 27, 2023 ^ I guess those separately modelled switches are just to make the whole system look real, no differing functions or anything ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One is a single white light switch and the other is a dual switch. It'll just be cosmetically different in the mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MattyIce01 57 Posted June 1, 2023 Reptilia ROF-90 Micro This project was originally started so that I can push myself to learn a new workflow and this Reptilia mount is the first mesh I've created in that workflow. I'm very happy with the first result of this new workflow. Hopefully, the results will only improve from here. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MattyIce01 57 Posted July 20, 2023 The project is still underway, optics have just been very time-consuming with the time we have outside of life. Here's a picture from the latest test build... 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
