You mean US Regular Infantry? Sorry, man, just a bit confused.  

EDIT: Stupid me, discard this reply.   Still, Laser, some of us would love to see new US Regulars, if you were feeling bored. You're the bomb, man.

Thanks again, men. That's the attitude that makes it all worth what it's worth, if you know what i mean sounds a bit hectic but damn, what the hell

Quote[/b] ]A new set of Marines has just been out for a week and people start to make requests for new ones. C'mon.

You think this is abnormal or what? You can even compare marines on those screens with SC's. The difference is great, and I, think CB's mod marines look more better than SC's, even if to take into consideration their age, nearly 1 year old.

The main problem of SC's marines - its their old base They do not look impressive and its pity =(

What do you mean with "old base"? Base model? Then you are wrong SafetyCatch's Marines use HYK's model as base model so they are pretty up to date. But my point is that when SafetyCatch announced he was making Marines and showed pictures everybody was like: "Wow SafetyCatch those are amazing" and "SafetyCatch have my baby". And now they are a week old and people start to make requests for new ones. Bit pathetic don't you think?

Sorry for going offtopic.

totally agree with Ironsight on this...as a matter of fact an update for SC Marines JUST came out this week...

I agree, and its a waste of time too. I mean how many USMC addons are out there? We've already got several high quality ones, you should be asking for lesser made addons as opposed to the same old stuff, its like the infamous M4 problem, theres plenty of talent, but not enough of a balance of addon types, especially with Russian and other nations units.

Laser, I love your chopper pilot pack but I was wondering why arent there any Air Force chopper pilots? There are at least two good AF chopper addons (BAS Pavehawks and SEF Pavelows) that need some good pilots. I think all it really would need is a reskin of the SOAR pilots, but Im no expert on AF pilot's gear. Maybe I will try doing this myself for my own personal use.

Speaking of Air Force, have you considered doing a fixed wing pilot pack?

Sorry can i ask for a little request with a riflemen pack. I was wondering if you could do armoured crewmen and personal carrier crewmen

[CameronMcDonald 146]

Use Combats! The only glitch with theirs is that there are no shadows.

Use Combats! The only glitch with theirs is that there are no shadows.  

The problem with Combat! crewmen are that they are Personal Carrier crewmen, they are usually found in mechanised formations where they specialize in supporting infantry by providing force multiplication, firesupport, tactical mobility and armoured protection. This allows the infantry to engage the enemy and defeat them hence alot of these personal carrier crewmen are usually wear BDUs because they are more akin to the riflemen then to a conventional crewmen.

Armoured crewmen are different they are designed to fight along other armoured vehicles to engage and defeat heavy enemy formations, fortifactions and positions they are also used as a primary thrusting formation to breakthrough enemy lines and outflank the enemy allowing the infantry to mop up. These guys usually wear OD overalls or Des Overalls and depending on availability may/maynot wear Body armour.

[CameronMcDonald 146]

I stand corrected!  d'oh!   In  that case, some US tankies would be welcome... but I still reckon US Regulars first!

There are too many Russian units + US Marines, TOO MANY! TOO MA-<gets punched out by annoyed people and Laser>.

[cozza 24]

Tankies are an ok idea but when the chance to see a tankie. Unless your in a tank or his relaxing.

US air Force PJ are a great idea, Something orignial.

It must be hard thing to be so talented addon maker as LASER... I hope he will not get into BAS situation on OFP scene. Best regards for you LASER.

[OFPCAT 0]

It seems "Laser " has become a well known brand name of quality soldier addons. And he also very productive with amazing efficiency. A real addon talent.

[Wa_Va_Voom 0]

I stand corrected!  I'd best get to know this stuff, seeing as I'm a 2nd Lt. in the ADF... d'oh!   In  that case, some US tankies would be welcome... but I still reckon US Regulars first!

There are too many Russian units + US Marines, TOO MANY! TOO MA-<gets punched out by annoyed people and Laser>.

Sir, which unit are you attached to.

I'm a Lance Jack in 4th Brigade probably applying for my commision soon. I'll PM about how to get a commision.

@Batdog - Your right about nopt seeing crewmen its just that Laser said he may make US regular infantry formations hence since he is making that pack it may have been viable to make troops of the Armour Corp.

[CameronMcDonald 146]

Where are you posted?

[Wa_Va_Voom 0]

I'm a chocko so my posting is at Watsonia (Brigade HQ) I'm in an independent company in the brigade, but when i finish uni i'm probably go SSO (ironically medical corp like you) but I wouldn' mind starting GSO training attached to one of the university regiments so you get a bit more respect and you move up the promotion chain a bit more faster.

[CameronMcDonald 146]

 Sounds like you've got it all worked out, eh! What possy in Medical are you thinking of looking at?

[Laser 0]

OK... meanwhile, here's a peek at what AR-15 family would look like after the weaps pack update. This is M4 shorty customized with Vitor buttstock.

What sorta weapons do these guys carry? BTW, those are some kickass looking M4s, cant wait to try 'em out When are they gona be released?

Magazine textures look a bit blurry in comparison to the rest of the weapon but overall it's looking good.

[marine26thmeu 0]

Awesome looking carbine, is this new weapons pack going to use the new ammo magazines that the M4 w/Eotechs (that came with the pilot pack) as well as your original magazines, or are you going to consolidate them into one type? Thanks

[Daniel 0]

Apart from the magazine, it looks really sweet. Good work.

[Laser 0]

Funny thing... on the screenshot mag looks crappy, but ingame it looks OK, even at close range. It's the same mag texture I used for M4s from my pilots' pack. Must be something wrong with the camera angle

Forward RIS courtesy of INQ, Vitor stock and Eotech were made from scratch and receiver was modelled anew too but mapped with Valve textures from CS:CZ game.

Looks very nice and polished! 1024 textures?

No, 512x512. Used DxDll for taking a screenshot.

Top notch soldier models, with great features. Love the Marine marpat helmets and all the flightsuit textures. Just looks like real cloth.

Is the Eotech optic a placeholder? Looks very rough, but maybe that's something with my video settings.

I have to say I prefer your previous M4/M16s, as the textures seemed more "tangible" (not sure how to put this into words, but less like a photograph and more like a real object is my intent) and interracted more realistically with the in-game lighting (although these 3D models here are even better). Not such a huge fan of the artificial highlights in the textures, but I'm weird I suppose.
