action man 0 Posted September 7, 2006 Since, never in my life, have I seen so fat soldier, Were is the pic posted of the "fat" soldier? I can't see any fat soldiers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted September 7, 2006 I just confirm what Ebud said: the 'remake' of the US soldiers is mainly caused by the complaints about the fact that almost all of actual 'Infantry Models' look 'thin', [+ a couple of other inaccuracies...]. well... maybe the previous screeshots weren't good enough to show how the models do really look in-game too, Here are more shots (in-action): Quote[/b] ]Quick Fire question, will handguns still have tracers? Handguns don't have any tracers. Quote[/b] ]Or documentation with some instructions "how to" for noobies? Envisaged. Quote[/b] ]removing the 'uneeded' scripts and eyecandy from franze's apache is very easy - about a 10minute job. Obviously you'd have to ask the appropiate permission to rip stuff out. This can be easily done indeed, but the point is that 'Franze apache' wouldn't be 'Franze apache' without all of its MFDs and without the rest of scripted instruments, though. Moreover, the weapons system is scripted too, and that cause a certain lag in-game, especially during huge battles. Regards Thunderbird84 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cpt. FrostBite 0 Posted September 7, 2006 keep the old models please. If you don't I guess I won't use the update. The model and textures of the current US Soldier are way better than what you plan to replace it with. The DMA models are nice, but the baggy trousers and fat belly of the model are not suited for US soldiers. The kevlar-vest looks very wierd on this model and everything just looks out of proportion.

ebud 18 Posted September 7, 2006 I can see what he means actually, and I don't know what his frmae of reference comes from, but BDUs are baggy as hell and make you look about 2x as fat. The waist may be small but they are cut very big and loose. I've seen a lot of pics of European soldiers from my memory I remember most of them being much slimmer and the uniforms tailored much less baggy, but thats from memory.

archsceptic 21 Posted September 7, 2006 Actually, baggy and chunky does seem to be the look these days. You probably know about this site anyway Thunderbird, but just in case you dont: https://peosoldier.army.mil/multimedia.asp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pancho 0 Posted September 7, 2006 I guess removing some scripts might help the game a lot. For example I started a campaign in peacemaker. The lag was unbelievable in almost all the missions. No such problem when playing in vanilla though. But playing vanilla isn´t fun anymore. It has to be FFUR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thunderbird 0 Posted September 8, 2006 US woodland soldiers (Hopefully the final version). [*]Removed the heavy body armor. [*]Added 'mud' and 'dust' on pants. [*]Edited the camo pattern. etc... Rifleman (Magazines pouches, grenades pouches, 2 x canteens). Grenadier (..., + M203 pouches). Medic (..., + Medical backpack). Several changes have been carried out and as already said, more variants would be available soon (with/without camelback, with/without kneepads... ), anyways, I hope everyone would be satisfied with the new changes this time, if not, just wait'n see'em in game. :-) Regards TB84 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mp_phonix 0 Posted September 8, 2006 Personally I prefer the one from the previouse update, but that is just me I don't know what the others said. The chest part looks pretty fucked up because it has no gear on it. where are the combat vests with the gear ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ti0n3r Posted September 8, 2006 Looks pretty damn nice, apart from the fat legs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sniperwolf572 758 Posted September 8, 2006 Since, never in my life, have I seen so fat soldier, except the ones in the offices. Also, wrists looked OK on the guerrilas, but as US troops, they look like they played alot of OFP. Also, vests kind of look like they're made of paper. I'm guessing you probably think the Code Blue units look too fat as well? Not really, CodeBlue actually look really good. Cloth is hard to replicate in OFP, so I guess that's the problem, maybe with ArmA and normal mapping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stgn 39 Posted September 8, 2006 Hmm I don't realy see the improvement on the woodland soldiers the model is okay but what did you do to the pattern. Its way too dark and way way too big atleast on the legs. and the OD green on the interceptor or what it is is too light This is about how the pattern should be looking: http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/2130/wwodsizeur3.jpg sory for the bad picture.

DarkTerritory3 0 Posted September 8, 2006 imo the soldiers were ok in ffur2006 and 2.0 If i was a mod maker i would try to add and or fix others things. New effects. Thats where ofp lack the most. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rainbow 0 Posted September 8, 2006 So, I prefer the old version too. Better textures and general expieriences Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CAHEK 0 Posted September 8, 2006 New soldier model look a bit...weird to me sorry. Why mess with perfection? BTW, speaking about "the best of the best"- in my humble opinion DLEM's ACU are the best looking US soldier models ever. Have you ever thought about adding em to FFUR?

action man 0 Posted September 8, 2006 T-bird,please don't go with this model! From a distance it would look like a soldier with an exposed rib cage,or some type of new fangle tiger/zebra cammo! Edit= just read post above,if you did please don't use new face model's .They don't work after resuming a saved game!! EDIT 2= Dohh sorry for another edit but with hind sight why bother changing the old model? As the saying goes "if it ain't broke,don't try and fix it" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ubersmack 0 Posted September 8, 2006 Quote[/b] ]Looks pretty damn nice, apart from the fat legs what is with you people and fat body parts... looks pretty normal to me. when I was in the field I would always have my cargo pockets crammed with crap from maps to MRE pieces. Quote[/b] ]T-bird,please don't go with this model! From a distance it would look like a soldier with an exposed rib cage,or some type of new fangle tiger/zebra cammo! A very good point. The textures in the game right now look MUCH MUCH better. The straps on the vest look like they are very worn out (light green color) and the rest of the model looks like he just walked out of the PX with new camo. Not a good combo..

echo1 0 Posted September 8, 2006 is ffur 2006 2.0 compatible with the CSLA 2 update 1 of is it not compatible It isnt compatible unless you were to modify CSLA's config (which would require a load of work) I prefered the model with the body armour, maybe its just because that vest underneath it looks wierd, I agree with Action Man on the "Rib cage" look.
