j w 0 Posted August 19, 2006 w00t, looks awsome Will you do infantry, or just vehicles? Looks awsome (as I said), too bad I can't really help, but hope some one will! Regards JW Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sfc.itzhak 0 Posted August 19, 2006 tx... but no infantry cause there are a lot of very good marines out... for the campign i will use someone ealse if they let me... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j w 0 Posted August 19, 2006 Sure. You'll make a campaign, using some of your addons + some other addons. Anyone is allowed to do so Good luck with these addons, they looks great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackScorpion 0 Posted August 19, 2006 They look nice... will be interesting to see them ingame since the pics make them look awesome and a tad... well... "not optimized" (photoreal). Hate to say this, but you'd better link or resize and re-upload the images before Placebo slaps ya. There's a size limit you know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sfc.itzhak 0 Posted August 19, 2006 => black scorpy i hate to dissapoint ya but what you see is the real size of the addon.... and i used some real photos as the tex....:pistols: itzhak... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackScorpion 0 Posted August 19, 2006 Oh, even better, mini fighters. Seriously, with size limit I mean that the übergood, always nice mods have in their wide wisdom granted an image size of 100 kB (102400 bytes iirc). Any bigger pics should be either resized, cut into pieces (as Parvus usually does in CP thread) or just be linked. As I said, I'll be interested to see them in my OFP. Since I'vebeen surprised both in a good and a bad way before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simba 0 Posted August 19, 2006 you should really change th textures on the ch46 and the boat ,looks really odd , using real life text is a hard job since you need hires photos and different modelling technique , but  they remain the best textures they are only hard to use. the hand made texture on the f18 and harrier look 10 times better  actually , why don't you do all the textures like this ? there are also some lightening probs it seems.

gatordev 219 Posted August 19, 2006 Looks like a lot of potential there. I'd love to see a USMC -46 in OFP. It's sadly missing a U.S. Phrog. A few corrections/nits: If your intent is to make a Marine F-18, then the squadron on the side should be "VMFA-xxx" and not "VFA-xxx." I don't even know if 113 exists or which service it belongs to. Also, your ship is actually an Arleigh Burke Class and not a Ticonderoga. Looks nice, regardless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hornet85 0 Posted August 19, 2006 they do exist onboard CVN-76 VFA-113 the Stingers http://www.lemoore.navy.mil/vfa-113/ Quote[/b] ]USN, assumed command of VFA-113 in a ceremony held Dec 13th.  The “Stingers†continued their outstanding safety record throughout 2001, which is unparalleled in Naval Aviation.  VFA-113 continues to have the most mishap free flight hours, surpassing 26 years since their last class “A†mishap on 12 May 1974.

franze 196 Posted August 20, 2006 Retexture of the Tarawa looks excellent - Harrier is good too. Needless to say, looks like you're going to be pretty busy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-SWAT- 1 Posted August 20, 2006 Very nice pictures... I see an IFOR patch on the harrier. Are there plans to make different patches, which can be add via settexture? Or is it static? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackScorpion 0 Posted August 20, 2006 scorpy:i tested all the addons exept the ship and they are all real size like other aircraft... Well, thanks, I guess... yay, I do know that they're real size, I was referring to the pics on the 1st time and 2nd time ("mini fighters"), well... the smiley tells it all. Just said I'm eager to see these on my screen, to both play with them and see how they look, since it might always differ a bit due to settings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nephilim 0 Posted August 20, 2006 uhm y dotn you guys try to make some units/vehicles that will be present in some years? eg f-35 f18E av8bs are pretty outdated... or add an osprey LCAC... theres another USMC mod doing exactly the same stuff... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j w 0 Posted August 20, 2006 theres another USMC mod doing exactly the same stuff... I though that the OFP community would support eachother not say, well an addon as been made so there's no need for another one. Just cause you have a good reputation amongst modmaking/makers and the community you don't get the right to walk into the thread and beat this guy down. Seriously I don't see why the 'best' addonmakers out there allways say: We don't need that (either since it has been done, or someone is making it with better quality, and also the maker is behind a big name). It sucks, just say, hey, did you know that there is already a USMC mod, try maybe to join them, instead of having 10x2 ppl working on the same addons, why can't there be 20ppl working for the same team, on more addons? Or something like that, but you don't have to be such an arse to newbs in addonmaking Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sfc.itzhak 0 Posted August 20, 2006 hi... i wanted to se how the harrier will look with better tex.. i import it from another game... take a look top side front tom_48_97: will contact.. and it for aircraft weapon config. calm dude its ok she can say her opinion.. but the other usmc mod wont realse its addons until arma so i want it for now not to live in the future.. nephilim: hi.. the f-18 you see in the start of the topic is fa-18e. and will see how this will go on.. i wanted to focus on more "now" planes and helis cause it will take time untill the fa35 will come to the marines.. tx itzhak Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nephilim 0 Posted August 20, 2006 @J W please dont get me wrong here. its nice to see that someone else has taken the initiative to make a usmc mod. but as a matter of fact theres been 4 attempts for a mod that has failed due waht ever reason lack of interrest, personel whatever. wouldnt it be much wiser to help the existing team to finish the things that are still WIP? or start on things that arent done and are usmc themed? Quote[/b] ]Seriously I don't see why the 'best' addonmakers out there allways say:We don't need that (either since it has been done, or someone is making it with better quality, and also the maker is behind a big name). i know what you want to say. but have you though about that some people may have more experience? Dont get me wrong here there are alot of skilled people around but the way the work can and always will be improvable and this goes for everyone. anyone who claims i cant learn more i know all is wrong and never will be at his peak of skills. also if im an a**hole in your eyes im fine with that no problem. i havent got anything against newbies.. hey even i started... everyone needs a bit of guidance at first. i also made mistakes when ive started out modeling and i wasnt good at first. but people told me what they didnt like or how it could be done better. sometimes theyve been harsh sometimes theyve been nice. its a matter of your character if you say "wtf does he want from me" or how you deal with it. im giving advice to anyone how asks me or if i see something could be improved. and people who know me know that. ive learnd quite a few lessons in the 3 years im moddeling now and specially in the past months. so y are you refusing to benefit from the things ive learned instead of making the same mistakes over and over again? anyway it is absolutally ok if some one does another m4 or av8b or whatever model to learn modelling. but making another mod on the same topic is rediculous. specially redoing the same content over and over again. it doesnt bring the whole thing forward. what if this team fails? again the community has no finished usmc mod, instead you have clusters that are either unfinished or really crude. so why is joining up another team that bad? maybe this team has models that are better than of the other team and vice versa. they could benefit from each other and hopefully the finish up that frikken usmc mod.... (that im waiting for some time now aswell).... so if you still have anyobjections jw please pm me or talk to me on msn or skype i dont want to hijack this thread anyway back ontopic... the stuff looks good so far. look for some walkaround sites they often have awesome material. try aircraftresourccenter.com (aircrafts) primeportal.com (AIR/LAND) @SFC.ITZHAK hmm you say that the f18 is a rhino but the intake shape of a rhino isnt round check franze´s rhino its coming along nicely if you look at the harriers canopy from the front youll notice that it kinda looks flat at the top and of a boxy shape. try making it more round keep it up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
