U.s. army special forces

[bugkill 7]

silent pro,

    "no easy day" was my concept (check the readme that comes with the mod) that the dtd pro mod team made a reality, and a great one i might add. i've been trying to get an addon like this for flashpoint for months since i got back from iraq. i encourage anyone who plays ghost recon to get it, but i want it for flashpoint also.

Nevermind. OFP.info posted some screenies.

I haven't had the chance to try these out yet, but I'm looking forward to it. I'm glad that we've finally got some decent SF units to muck around with

I also really look forward to seeing some Woodland versions of these units, since it's usually woodland missions I play.

maybe it would be a good idea to add names to the special forces instead of "specialforces11" or whatever. Maybe you should make it like "Special Forces (Middle East Garb)" or "Special Forces(Turban)"

[bugkill 7]

redliner47,

in the final version they will be giving more accurate names.

And grouped in the editor?

That would make them simpler to place in the mission editor

that's not a probelm for the final version, too.

Ok all will be done in final pack

But pack1 will be only desert after that I make some woodland pack too  

I have some problems with units:

-Special Forces6

-Special Forces8

When they are sitting in vehicles you see in first person view their mouth, beard and cap how can I fix this

[Baphomet 0]

How many units are in the pack altogether? I'm sitting here blinking and bewildered trying to figure out how you compressed 30 some megabytes of pbo into 4.25.

Why specifically does it need so many other addons?

The text file implies that you'd more or less gotten permission to use models/textures? Does that mean you're simply allowed to reference to them in a cpp?

I have a hard time wrapping my mind around the concept that a soldier pack would be so huge.

[Peanut 0]

It needs the ICP-weapons just for the handguns, I changed this for myself so it uses the BAS M1911

but nontheless I really really like this pack, when you sort the bugs out it won't leave my addons folder for a long time.

[Baphomet 0]

Personally. I'd be more inclined to use this addon if it was self-contained?

I really don't like the idea of necessarily having other unrelated addons installed to use it.

If you have permission to use textures? Can you not "use them"? Instead of referencing them?

It looks interesting though.

Same here. I normally don't addons that require other large addon packs by other mod teams to work except when it comes to maps that need stuff like the mapfacts addons.

that sounds good. could you do that, extraction?

@miles teg: yes, mapfact is goood

[ebud 18]

I agree as well. If you have permissions, then you really should just make them self contained. people will put up with a larger initial download, but cry like hell if they have to download anything else. I know I sure did when I saw I had to have 2 ranger packs installed.

[raedor 8]

erm... and if you get the permission: take care that those weapons get other/new names in the config!

[ExtracTioN 0]

For the Orcs weapon pack I agree but what is wrong with BAS weapon pack

If I get BAS weapon pack included with other class names in dl file the pack will be so big I leave in next update ORCS weapon pack out only BAS weapon pack must be installed and I am sure 99% of people have BAS addons installed

So what ya all think

yes, that's a good compromise.

and most of the people who are gonna d/l your pack have bas...

at last the missions of those sf will require bas.

[miles teg 1]

I agree... I wouldn't mind using the BAS Weapons pack as most of the addons in it would actually be used. What really irks me is having to use an huge external addon pack just for like one or two models or a couple of weapons.

Outside SFDS.pbo all other addons are needed only for weapons no textures

but ok next update will use only BAS weapon pack

When I created this thread, I had no idea it would get this big. This is great to see the interest. Anyway, here is a resource pic for you. I sure hope it helps. Let me know if you need more or if you want to originals, which are bigger and higher quality.

Thanks,

So how is it coming. Also I wanted to ask you, I saw a special on this on the history channel about the special forces green berets and mostly all of them had beards, anyhow, do you have the guy with the cap on his head in this pack? Also how long does it take to get this baby self contained and uploaded again?
