ROFL  biggrin_o.gif You're breaking the forum rules; you're flaming yourself. I'm reporting you!  tounge_o.gif

Well if you cant laugh at yourself... biggrin_o.gif

Back on topic , it was done as a measure to counter some clipping i think , i am sure someone more closely linked to the infantry project can enlarge on that .

Oh man that packs looks really heavy. He's going to have to get spinal surgery after that mission.

The normal load for such a large backpack is 40kg in the Dutch Marine Corps. Quite heavy, but the right backpack (bergenhaus) it's not that hard.

Note that this is not a 'combat-load'. As soon as the first shot is fired you dump this pack on the very spot you are standing and proceed without it (only to go back and pick it up after the fight).

correct... the patrol packs and day sacks in the current dpm are more representative of what a soldier would carry in the field... those stupidly sized bergans carry pretty much everything they guy needs for an extended patrol/setting up somewhere... like frostbite said, they arent worn during combat

Nice work chaps, looking forward to the new additions and updates.

By the way, any plans to release at some point some RM's in Artic Snow suits?

is it possible to script this so when the AI come under fire they drop their bergens then go prone and start hammering away?

btw top quality looking units, keep up the great work!!

one word i keep hearing is keep it simple..... to many scripts will complicate the addon plus im sure numerous actions in the action menu isnt apreciated

to be fair... that is something you could script into the mission itself... just a case of setting the correct hidden selection to 0.

To drop the backpack it needs to be something like in FDF; a seperate part of the model. Plus if you 'force' the AI to drop the backpack when the fighting start, this can be VERY irritating when they do so right in the face of the enemy; this will result in a few nasty holes in the AI stomach.

Best is to leave these on and consider them recon troops and to use them in cut-scenes and stuff like that.

Last time I worked/drove one was a few years ago but its not hard to recall the scale. Another plus is we have ex servicemen giving us firm advice RE scale detail and general workings.

What you see is as accurate as we can make it. smile_o.gif

plus Orson has used accurate Blueprints, from a warrior manual he bought.... And on top of that he has used accurate dimensions from MOD website, FAS.org and Janes website

cheers for the kind words mate. The L1A1 is pretty much my first attempt at texturing stuff, and i'm glad you like em - still a bit of work to be done to it, but also to a few other weapons being included in the pack.
