thomas piss off you havent had anything to do with this addon so be quiet he sent me the wrong set end of i dont care it was a mistake we all make mistakes in life nobodys perfect so stfu and try to write more constructive things in future instad of accusing me of shit which i havent said and or done. serial killer is my partner in this addon so again stfu

helping_hand lets follow the forum rules and remain polite and courteous.

[Blackbuck 9]

i can sum up these last few posts in one word pathetic. hoz what ThomasRyan has posted here is a continuation from an msn conversation he had with SRK now i cant help but think whats said on msn stays on msn right? so why has he the right to come into my thread and star accusing me of stuff frankly i havent done for instance he says i sent SRK the wrong files, how the hell does he know what the wrong and right ones are? what that post ment was dont download the pack because you wont gain anything! thomas ryan being th immature person he is takes it upon himself to tell me i've been acusing SRK of messing! up hmm thats fair now isnt it hoz my point is if you dont know what your trying to post either dont post the comment / text or ask / say it via PM.

now i hope that thats cleared everything up about all this stupid behaviour about acusing people of thing now can we please get back to the topics of the mercenary pack?

[Deathstruck 375]

Hmm,dont bother to download it?

But whats wrong with that file huh??

[Blackbuck 9]

s.lee the files we were going to upload had the new vests and custom faces and modified glasses etc the oe however that did get uploaded was the original one which hadn't been deleted off SRKs comp stay tuned though we'll relase the one we ment to quite soon

the guys keep getting better and better

i hope the ex SAS will be getting the correct beret color (SAS has sand brown barets)

keep up the work

[Jackal326 1181]

Sharpen up that weapon crate, will improve the lighting on it.

[Blackbuck 9]

hehe berets are a pain i have something like 6 or 7 colours now lol and jackal i will have a look and see wat i can do about the crate

[Blackbuck 9]

its been a while since i showed u an update of what weve done, well SRK has vastly updated the soldier models fixing bugs adding custom content etc, i've been working on more custom content for the "Module" and here is what i've been doing since 19:15 UK "Local time"

there is an RPG22, RPO and numerous other eastern descent weapons to be made in the coming weeks the only problem is with the RPGs is they need textures so a texture artist would be very very welcomed to join UCS if they can, please PM me or serial killer for details

regards H_H

Great addon guys! I just dowloaded it on the weekend and was very impressed. Couple of suggestions if you don't mind though. The guy with AK-47 is kind of a week point. These guys are mercs, so they usually try to carry the best equipment available (they have the money for it). If you want to give him a Russian weapon, perhaps you should give him VSS or at least AK-74U with a silencer and a red dot. With AK-47 he looks like poor bastard next to the guys with newer weapons.

About the RPG's. Why inventing a bicycle if there are great RPG's exist in the RHS and ORCS packs. It might save you lots of time. I think that RHS team will let you use their creations, those guys are very cool and easy to work with. Ask them.

[Blackbuck 9]

hehe i worked for ORCS lol adding jam to the new weapons lol so i can try either i hope with regards to yuri me will se what i can do for him maybe a 100 series AK

*edit*

scrath built RPG rounds are the easiest thing in o2 to make just make an 8 section cylinder

the RPG wasnt to hard either its madefrom 3 pieces the Barrel, Hand guard and the exhaust (back) and still only has around 300 - 500 polys the rounds are around 100 - 300 polys at most i think so its all going well

go me!

Expect a new release quite soon including some surprises

*edit*

ok i'd like some feedback please what do you think to me making the PG7-VR able to do this???

Mercs will have their own transport soon  

Say hello to the ATAV (all terain attack vehicle)

I made it from the BIS jeep believe it or not, its weapon options will or should be an m249, m2HB and a startstreak or trigat anti tank missile system enjoy & regards H_H

also serial killer might be starting work on a real "buggie" the desert iris a jordanian 4x4 strike vehicle of which SOCOM just bought some

Those models look awesome! Forget what I said earlier, DO YOUR OWN PACK!

You know what everyone had failed to do when they made the RPG with TB warhead (thermobaric)? There are no BURNING effect afterwards. The TB round burns like a napalm. The best damn thing to clear the bunkers or buildings. Russians used them very effectively in Chechnya against snipers hiding in the buildings. If you can do that with your RPG, that would be so cool.

[Blackbuck 9]

Ahem...

tomi is the config whiz and he has a lot of tricks planned from what i can tell

so if we can get the thermobaric effect then yea we'll include it i guess.

just so everyone knows this is Module 1 from UCS, there may be others to follow depending on the success of this one once released

hi

i just want to know how have you maked the faces without scripting...   i'm searching for a solution to kill the "bis head texture on llauma head" bug.

[BlackScorpion 0]

It's really just defining the head texture with the "setface" command. The texture, defined by the <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">this setface "facename" line, should be in a .pbo file, along with a config defining it's classname.

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">class CfgPatches

{

class Faces

{

units[] = {};

weapons[] = {};

requiredVersion = 1.00;

};

};

class CfgFaces

{

class facename

{

name="facename";

texture="\pboname\facename.fileextension";

east=1;

west=1;

guer=1;

civilian=1;

};

};

That's a basic config.cpp file, you should be able to spot what you ought to change.

Hope this helps.

[Blackbuck 9]

well that may be the case, but we use a llauma head model with one face only my idea was to stop the named guys faces keep changing so we did it

[CRIONYK 0]

i dont see in the config.cpp any cfgFaces or any eventhandlers... so the question was : have they defined the texture in p3d ? and how have they stopped the BIS face texture who appear randomly on llauma's heads ? (mine have BIS eyes on head top   )
