HotShot 0 Posted June 20, 2004 Looking good as per usual. I pitty the fools who payed Å30 for ADF addon pack for VBS1 How about Oakley goggles too? See alot of goggles with oakley on in Iraq pics. Is their any chance we could get working smoke grenades too? I think FDF has them, but i never see any other units that do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skeg_man 0 Posted June 21, 2004 Â Â Im so glad that people are liking the units we're putting together!! All goggles and sunnies are by Oakley, the goggle straps have the "O" on them and the glasses have the "Oakley" name in the middle, which is hard to pick up on but its there. The smoke grenade thing, i'm workin on it but with us being only a 2 man team its hard and a HUGE work load, Sabre's gotta work on the textures, and I (Skeg Man) work on everything else! But in saying that, where getting there. I've also updated the original ADF Soldiers, and Para's, so they mite be on there way out soon too!! I'll tell ya all now, theres a boarding party on the drawing board and also the 2RAR squad (Guys that are in Iraq using the F88) too. But anyways, must be leaving, gotta get back to it. Adios Dudes, keep the posts comming Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stgn 39 Posted June 21, 2004 wow looking great, maybe you should use INQ's M4's Earls are too cartoonie, just a thought. Altho the model of the CS look more(If we look at the main body of the M4) like a real one than Earls his still looks more like the M4 than the CS M4(made after a airsoft model or so it apears).

RMATICH 0 Posted June 24, 2004 I think these Aussie Units look the coolest! Please try to have at least one unit with a Steyr. It would'nt seem Australian to me without one. Also I urge those addon makers listed before to lend their support [ie models] to this important new addon. Let us work together in a spirit of cooperation that can mutualy assure the long standing survival and further growth of this great tactical simulator know to the free world as Operation Flashpoint!

M-N-0N 0 Posted June 25, 2004 very nice ... question tho A) does camo patterns get bigger and smaller on basgs and that? i thought they all stayed in the same proportion?? B) i see alot of ppl making camo and so forth for soldiers .. but not many "if at all any!?!?!" add detail to clothing material ... like the effect of clothes bending / folding ... and there is very little shadowing ... i mean look at ppl wearing cargo pants ... they arnt tight straight fitting are they??? and if you can pull it off make the clothes look worn a bit .. dirty so forth "they look brand new"... if you add that to the textures i am sure you could make the models look more interesting/ indepth ... and i am sure others would follow.. i e-mailed BAS guys one time about this before they released ... but i dunno if the e-mail got to them .. .but in the end the models had a bit of what i explained just then when released...

ardvarkdb 104 Posted June 27, 2004 maybe it's the angles of the photos, but if that's the new desert camo I'm gonna have to say I like the older version better, it's a lot clearer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
