Soviet 1985 Afghan Infantry Pack

[-33ker 0]

Anyhoo... these units are a fantastic addition to OFP.  Hats off.  My only gripe is the cowboy hat.  Never seen Russian troops wearing that.... although it does look cool.

Nice units, can't wait to use them against the new Taliban pack.

This hat is called "Afghanka". No cowboy hat, just the Soviet boonie...

BTW, I've been waiting for this forever!

Psykke coud use the BIS infantry to make some soldiers with camoflage. But those rolls on their back should be removed!

I already made my own KZS camouflage textures, but decided not to add any models with them just yet.

I have seen them hats very often.

But a tank crew uniform like this one below would go very well with this pack.

I just call it a cowboy hat because in the addon the sides are folded upward in the manner of a typical American cowboy type hat.  You can fold boonie hats upward like that also but most soldiers don't as its difficult to get the hats to hold that shape.  I imagine it would be the same with the Russian boonie hats. But oh well... it still looks kinda cool with them wearing their boonie hats cowboy style.

If anyones planning on making missons with these units, consider reading this:

http://fmso.leavenworth.army.mil/fmsopubs/issues/waraf.htm

Its got a very good history of the conflict and also mentions the vehicles/equipment employed and Soviet tactics used.

Lol, I would like to know if the Nomad mod still going.

That's the kind of stuff we wanted to do.

so anybody have a link to that island other than ofp.info?

The afghanka hat on Psykkes soldiers seems too flared up at the rims... other than that units are great... I do wish some would have had no hats on as a lot did or that one cap...

Try using it without running WGL. That would be my guess!

And how do i change that??

Assuming you have a flashpoint shortcut - how else would you get into WGL... heres what you do....

right click on the normal flashpoint shortcut....

select properties...

where it says Target make sure you this line written:

"C:\Program Files\Codemasters\OperationFlashpoint\FLASHPOINTRESISTANCE.EXE"

click apply...

if that doesnt work I assume you put WGL addons into your regular addon folders.. for this you need to remove all your WGL addons from the regular addon folders, try that if the first one doesnt work....

if that doesnt work ... try looking for something else and as a last option do a reinstall of Flashpoint and make sure you seperate the addons into mod folders

Can a suitable mission with these units already be found somewhere?

I was originaly planning to release this addon with at least 2 or 3 missions, but the guy who was suppose to be doing them was not online for last couple of weeks. So as soon as he gets back online i am gonna make him do those missions....

[-33ker 0]

Yeah! Get this guy back on the track! We want some action!

Dunno! Some people claim that what they've got now is too dark anyway. The fabric would've lost its colour on the sun in under 2 weeks. You can try tho....

[Bobcatt666 0]

Yes have real unforms from that time period and its too dark..

Wasn't there an Afghan Everon in the making by someone? Any news about that?

thanks placebo...

I just tried these out after a two month hiatus of not playing Flashpoint. Way to go these are very good. The textures are really nice looks like fabric.

The only suggestions I have is on the panama hat. It should be more droopy like these...

I haven't seen any with the ends trained upwards. The only other suggestion is, maybe in the next version could the AK74 rifleman have a headache instead of a hat? Or maybe just add a AK74 with the helmet and have on with the hat?

I'm sure the Afghans appreciated having a nice big red star to aim for.
