abs 2 Posted June 19, 2008 Thanks for the tip. Overall, it's not that large an area. The mod is most likely going to consist of a few smaller regions relevant to the missions in the mod, rather than a whole large-scale island. Abs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AASE 0 Posted June 20, 2008 some of the vegetation has been replaced and the whole Island has been changed a little bit since the pics were taken. As ABS said we are hoping to have some Afgan houses and objects for the feel of the map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AASE 0 Posted August 5, 2008 Hey guys im back agein today with a new Island that i have been working on. the map is of the Southern part of Kandahar province including Kandahar city and many of the different districts. the map is 25KM by 25KM = 625KM Square.

abs 2 Posted August 7, 2008 From the ONS Forums: Quote[/b] ]Hey all,I figured i would start a new thread for the troops since Abs is no longer working on the textures for them. First off i would like to say thank you to everyone for welcoming me to the ons team, especially to Abs and AASE for helping me get all set up and ready to work. Now with that out of the way i would like to present to you all my first offical update. The following are pictures of the Captive model. I used Abs CADPAT AR texture for the camo although i changed the colors slightly to look less yellowish and more faded and used. This texture for the most part is done, i still have to add a few more wrinkles in the vest, shadows, stitches and other "fine tuning". [Abs: Click on picture for larger version] I have been hard at work the last few days on this texture and i am very pleased with the results and i hope you all are too. Stay tuned for more updates Ace of Spades is now working on the infantry model. In the meantime, I thought that I would show what I'm up to: This is the work in progress of the inside of our RG-31. I do need some photos, if anyone has them, of the driver's cabin...other than that, the RG-31 is almost ready to be UV mapped. Some feedback on Ace's, AASE's, or my project would be appreciated.

abs 2 Posted August 8, 2008 Thanks for the feedback, folks. I've also got that picture, Bricks. *sighs* I think I'll have to make up about half the cabin. I hope no one kills me for it. Abs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abs 2 Posted August 28, 2008 The latest from the ONS forums: Quote[/b] ]Hey all,Finally i have another update to the troops, this time its the infantry model. Now that i have textured the tac vest and gear etc. texturing the rest of the models should be much faster. Anyways here are some pics of the troops in 3ds max. Just thought I'd share what Ace has been up to As for me, I'm in the middle of trying to get the first model of the infantry shown into the game. I've just gone and finished creating the selections for them...now I've got to put in the weights ...does anyone know how the copy weights function works in o2? I've gotten the copy part down, but how do I get that information into another model? Abs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadow NX 1 Posted August 28, 2008 Looking excellent, really nice model and tetures. Bit more dirt and some wrinkles/folds here and there and even better but i guess that still isnt final so i better shut up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CameronMcDonald 146 Posted August 28, 2008 Lovely stuff Abs. My only advice would be to check that the CADPAT sizes on the pouches and vest (and arms and legs, while we're there) match up - it's probably the most annoying part of texturing with digital camoflague.

Panda-PL- 0 Posted August 28, 2008 These canadian soldiers look damn hot so far. Just those thick straps on the side of vest look awkward. http://img169.imageshack.us/my.php?image=captiver1zu8.jpg I know they are supposed to be a bit loose at the ends, but I'd either make them flat or modelled them, since this ios too big detail to only use texture.

manzilla 1 Posted August 28, 2008 I really can't add anything to the previous few posts. It's great to see such excellent pics after all the troubles you guys have had getting this Mod running. Hang in there gents. Your work looks great thus far. Looking forward to these for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
343rdBadger 0 Posted September 1, 2008 Whats the status of this mod?...Puttin on my patriot hat so I built a Leopard A26M today for CF ,interested? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kerry 0 Posted September 1, 2008 My god, the infantry look amazing. And about the Island, I doubt he'll let you, but you should ask Opteryx if you could use some of his custom buildings! He's got some awesome stuff in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scubaman3D 0 Posted September 2, 2008 abs, I think I can help you out. I have a bunch of buildings I had been working on that could probably be applied to your project. I think I have about 12 or so. Also, I haven't forgotten about that LAV-25 / Coyote...its on the list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abs 2 Posted September 3, 2008 Thanks for the comments guys...for the most part, it's the words of encouragement that keeps a small mod team going on. Now, to answer a few posts: I think I can help you out. I have a bunch of buildings I had been working on that could probably be applied to your project. I think I have about 12 or so.Also, I haven't forgotten about that LAV-25 / Coyote...its on the list. No rush on the LAV-25, scubaman3D. Believe me when I say that we've got a fair bit of work to do ourselves. Any donations that you think will help will be greatly appreciated. You know where to find me. Whats the status of this mod?...Puttin on my patriot hat so I built a Leopard A26M today for CF ,interested? I'd definitely like to see what you have come up with. As I said above, donations are always welcome. As for the status of the mod, we are working hard to get a demo release out the door. This will be the only release before the full mod is delivered. The demo will include: 1. A small island with an Afghan village 2. About 75% of the troops that we plan on creating (plus weapons) 3. The RG-31 Nyala 4. Some opfor units (to be determined) 5. Two or three single and multiplayer-coop demo missions At the present time, the most valuable help that someone can provide me is assistance in oxygen. I'm having difficulty getting the weighting right on the model, and I could use the feedback of someone who has experience. Cheers. Abs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

abs 2 Posted September 4, 2008 Still there. The list is only 97% accurate. You can basically say that the ones in blue are the weapons that Ace created in two days. He definitely puts me to shame, and he just learned modeling this week. Abs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
