Nice camo and models. One sug , Add more things to the "SAS" guys maybe a vest, they dont look very special.

now we need some Kolugev Resistences forces

[Blackbuck 9]

Good so far roadkill keep going at it

[somebloke 0]

Very nice work so far. It's wierd looking at my camo schemes in game.

But keep up the good work, and see what the public think.

[TwentyFourSeven 0]

Looking useful indeed. Gj

[rellikki 7]

Some bugs I found:-

- With the first try, I got an error about Fset1.p3d but it worked fine after that.

- Untextured hands.

- You can see trough the SAS and crew guy's goggles.

- No shadows.

- No wound textures.

- When trying to play with the machine gunner, you'll get an error "No entry .model"

- Medics can't heal.

- Game crashes when you play with the officer.

- With the pilots I get an error about rk_nli_pilot.p3d and it crashes the game.

- The sniper model has its head on Pilot view LOD, causing that you can see the nose, mouth and stuff from inside.

When you manage to fix those, it will be a very good addon

Facestex2

[m@ster 0]

yes

Game crashes when you play with the officer.

Personally i think the helmets and faces make them look too much like the EDF addons.

I think you should go back to the other version without the hyk helmets etc. Like in the recent screenshots.

I also got the same errors as Serial Killer.

[rellikki 7]

You could try making them a bit fatter, because they look too thin in my opinion. Also you could try making some helmet cover for them and some kind of vest for the SAS and some other units too, maybe... But those are just my own opinions

[somebloke 0]

I agree on the SAS needing some vest or something Special Forces like.

But i'm still not keen on that helmet. I still liked the older helmet from this screenshot

[CanadianTerror 0]

I dont think they need to be fatter...just add some more gear.

In the pbo, you have the tactical vests for example.

Its a good start though.

[somebloke 0]

Ah, just looked in the Config of the pbo, the reason the pilot doesn't work is because the p3d file is pilot, the config says pilotS.p3d.

[Snaky15-LV- 0]

Untextured gloves? and use old style helmets to see that they are poor lol

for the gloves.... use civilian style gloves or ehm.... russian?

and a pouch or more

[somebloke 0]

Suggestions for improvement.  These are just things I personally would do if they were mine, but i'm not saying You Have To do it.

First get rid of the SAS' helmet, and give them something like a Bob hat (it's basically a bobble hat with no bobble). Also give them a different weapon, say A 'Nam era M16.

The gloves, well i'm not sure on the gloves perhaps make them fingerless gloves? or texture them differently.

The pilot looks great, so keep him like that, or give him a headset.

As i can't see the officer i dunno bout him.

Tank Crew, i think need a side arm, like the normal crew.

Marksmen, now, give him an M14 or something, because the sniper has a scoped rifle.

Sniper is pretty much spot on.

Now the medic, i liked your version of this guy with the white on his helmet.

As i've said though, these are the changes I would make.  You don't have to.

[somebloke 0]

Right, hope you don't mind roadkill but i've fixed the pilot problem people are having.

So here is a fixed version of the beta. Fixed Pilot

Although i don't know whats up with the officer.

[rellikki 7]

Found another bug:-

You can fix that by redefining the osobnost selection, so it only has the face itself in it. And how to do this?

1. Delete the the original osobnost selection.

2. Push CTRL and double click on the face texture on the texture list in oxygen (eg. "facestex2\f01.pac").

3. Right click on the selections window, make a new selection and name it osobnost.

4. Save.

I hope it helped.

[zulu1 145]

I'm not one to complain much but this should have been a pre-beta release.

Missing model message.

No texture on fanny pack.

KBL_L1a1m203

and KMMFNMAG/JAM not mentioned anywhere.

A squad of 12 men, you only see 11, somebody is missing.

No shadows. When you hilite your men you don't get the idicators showing thier position on the screen.  

One last thing, the sniper with scope just has an FN/FAL.

[CanadianTerror 0]

Are you trying to link pics from your "C:" drive?

[kala 0]

Just tested, nice stuff, yes much bugs at the moment but you'l get over with them. SAS units dont need vests actually(as some one mentioned before) Only thing that SAS had like 2 pistol holsters, maybe remove one of them? Anyway good stuff, keep up the good work

EDIT:

[somebloke 0]

A squad of 12 men, you only see 11, somebody is missing.

That would probably be the pilot or officer.

[POPKA 0]

that island looks well vegetated Kala, what island is it?

[kala 0]

MAPFACT Nogova 2.

[somebloke 0]

What do you guys think of the camo, should i make it darker or lighter? Or should there be some bigger changes?

[rellikki 7]

What do you guys think of the camo, should i make it darker or lighter? Or should there be some bigger changes?

I think it's great

[somebloke 0]

Whoops, what i meant with the helmets was, they work but give them a camo colour, not just plain green.
