Thats looking good!

What changes have been made to get the soldiermodel look like this?

For the basic model, not too many. I've modelled the big velcro straps on the shoulders, and made a minor change to the back of the vest, since it's different than the ones the Americans use.

It's only got a colour map and a normal map applied to it though...so that might be why it looks different than other soldiers out there.

As you know, we like to bring you news as it happens. With that in mind, please excuse the funky colours on the model. It's in the process of being textured right now. I just wanted to show you that it is in-game and driveable for now. It's still got a fair bit of work that needs to be done on it, but the only Canadian vehicle that will be in the demo is in game! This is a great stride towards getting it complete, and I hope you're getting excited about our progress!

[Thanks to AASE who made the breakthrough on how to get it in-game when I spent so many weeks trying to get it to work! This crap can get really frustrating after a while!]

Sorry but the RG-31 is not a "Canadian Vehicle" Its origin is South Africa, and the Canadians are just one of the countries who operate this vehicle. As a Heavy Mech, 21Bravo this vehicle is part of our Route Clearance package in country. Kinda tripped a nerve for me reading that, sorry.

I don't think he was referring to it in that sense.

Anyway, nice work! What camo scheme is that?  tounge2.gif

I didn't get this impression either. To me it just seems like he's referring to the fact that this will be the only vehicle in the Canadian pack demo, hence Canadian Vehicle. Now if he would've said "vehicle of Canadian origin" that would be a whole different story.

You could say this about many Pack/Mod in the game. PRACS vehicles, the SLA vehicle reskins and so on.

Anyway, I look forward to this Canadian used vehicle of non-Canadian origins that will appear in the Canadian Mod whom purchased it from another country that manufactures it.  wink_o.gifsmile_o.gif

@Snafu: It's the disco camo scheme. We're hoping that any Taliban that see it will remember the spirit of disco, and relax a bit. smile_o.gif

Actually, the reason they're that colour is because of a plugin for UV mapping. It shows each face a different colour so that the texturer can know what he's texturing. Clearly, it's just a placeholder. wink_o.gif

@Manzilla: Thanks for clarifying my point, mate. smile_o.gif You would make a very good lawyer.

Don't be sorry. As has been already pointed out, I did not mean it in the sense that you took it. I'm sure by now that you've understood the real meaning behind my words, which makes me happy.

Right now I'm trying to get the RWS (turret) to work, but I keep getting these config errors. If there is a config guru who is willing to answer some questions on MSN while I learn how to config (ie: copy paste configs in a Frankensteinian manner), I would love your help.

Do you think if you cant get this mod out in the next month or two, can you release the Mamba(I think) as a standalone?

Ive been waiting for it for sometime.

We're not doing the Mamba anymore. I've passed it off to another addon maker to finish.

We are still working on the RG-31 however. smile_o.gif
