Desert 5t truck pack.

Recommended Posts

I would love to use those and have been looking for a long time for someone to release a desert truck pack. Right now I'm just still using the old MAF 5-ton.

I'm looking forward to their release!

Any chance of a woodland version of the pack using Marfy's equally excellent woodland textures? smile_o.gif

Hey Lee, you definitly should get permission for them textures and truks. It is in fact, something needed in OFP for a long time.

I wouldn't boder with armed versions, it will make the pack much bigger and be soon absolete by the BAS ones. Besides, now you got Hummers to look after them.

But if you make a nice, practical, and small pack, that will never be absolete and people will be able to download a small pack to play a cuple of missions with more ease than a big pack.

But back on topic, I have permission from marfy to use his amazing desert textures. (Very big thank you for that!)

Now I try to contact Jonno and/or Abuu.

Really great news Lee, asking permission for the AJS trucks is only being polite.

I have patience wink_o.gifbiggrin_o.gif

Is there a chance that this pack or BAS's down the road will have tanker trucks and wreckers?

No news, sorry.

I am waiting for a mail to get permission, using the jungle truck pack.

We have to wait a little bit.

I dont think there is a point in making a new topic just for this, but I retextured the hummer using Marfy's desert hummer as a template. If it is OK with him I could release it when I make it match his Nato 5t trucks colorwise.

Maybe waiting is silly Lee wink_o.gif

Those are still BiS trucks and the only thing left are the small config and the fact they made it a seperate truckpack.

Just mentioning them in the readme should be enough, you sended a request for something thats BiS and not very well known among the players.

As far as I can see it ...this addon is BIS and textures M&M, I think you got permission from both smile_o.gif  

well you figure it out wink_o.gif

GREAT WORK WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THESE. Now to a better point any chance of getting some FMTV Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/m1083.htm

which has been in the army's service since 1996 and are widely used everywheres now because they are more reliable than the current 5t truck. Would be really nice to see some of these :-)

They look alot like that BW mod truck pack that was released a while back. Actually they look like it shame the textures arent changed and used for us camo. be nice to have some modern trucks and support vehicles Theres alot of FMTV's and MTV's wish we had some for ofp they truly are the modern army trucks and are going ot have like 80,000 in inventories before its over with. http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/ <-- all of them listed there anyone wanna take up and make em i could help with the textures if needed :-)

I decided I kinda wanted a woodland 5t pack so i made it in about 10 min ofcourse some editing is needed for the repair trucks tool box but other than that it looks quite good :-D If anyone wants this let me know i am gonna ask jonno or abuu for permission to use it next time i see him on my msn.

Heres a pic. I would like to edit the texture with permission from marfy and take out the star and add a custom numbering system to it like on the rhs tanks etc or something or another.

I agree, the FMTV's are awesome trucks.   Just make sure to include the 3rd "bitch seat" in the middle of the cab of the truck.   It's kinda like the 3rd seat in Adammo's C130v2 addon where the seat is positioned above and to the rear of the driver and shotgun passenger seats.  

But they are very nice trucks that can be configured in tons of different ways for all kinds of missions.  Essentially they are the humvees of the military truck world.  Comfortable, reliable, versatile, and tough...   oh and they can mount a gun on their roof turret ring on the cab.  smile_o.gif

Personally I'd love to see a "ninja'ed" FMTV troop carrier like some US Army units used during the Iraq invasion where they had a M240, M2, or MK-19 mounted on them and were lined with sandbags and rucksacks on their sides and the troops in the caro area were sitting with weapons pointed outwards.    

Too bad troops can't fire from trucks in OFP though.  sad_o.gif

Here's a pic kinda showing what I'm talking about (although minus the sandbags and stuff on the sides). Note: the gunner is standing on the "bitch seat".
