They look great but pleeeeeeeeeeeeease say you are hex'ing the models and not using the texture swap utility? Last OMON troops I downloaded had no LOD textures (return of the killer textureless-white-men) which practically rendered them useless (

btw are you going to release a few missions? even just a few simple missions would be great and would create a more rounded feel to the mod.

EDIT: Whoooops, just checked your site, didn't realise you were an editing veteran Thought this was an up-coming mod. Downloading a few now.

There's nothing wrong with the texture-swap utility. You just gotta make sure to get the file-path correct and not rename the addon later.

'The Nothing' - OMON are a paramilitary forced operated by the Russian Ministry of the Interior, focused on internal security..like the US FBI having its own army I guess.

I do use the texture swap utility and swap all the textures including lods and excluding the face(xicht), glasses (civilista_bryle) and blck_sum ones, even if I didn't do any changes to them (which is getting quite rare nowadays as I've practically retextured everything).

But if any snow whites show up, please do inform me!

A quote from http://club.guns.ru/eng/specops.html

</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">...OMON (Police Special Assignment Group) and SOBR (Special Troops of Rapid Deployment).

Officially, he two units were organized in 1993 following the typical trend in MVD of establishing special forces that would be able to provide protection for Governments in the times of unrest.

In fact, their history dates back to 1986, when a special platoon was formed as a part of the Police Mobile battalion. Later in 1991 the platoon was transferred into a Company of Special Force. Its initial mission was to ensure public order during the various rallies, riots and demonstrations, to operate as rescue teams in the times of force-majeure, natural and technogenic disasters when quick and effective aid was required to maintain security for citizens.

The Izhevsk OMON numbers 150 men. The spectrum of the OMON operations is broad enough, varying from everyday routine patrolling urban territories to personal protection of the Government VIPs. Generally speaking, OMON is MVD's main muscle. OMON may work both independently or in close cooperation with other troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Federal Security Service forces (FSB) and Army, depending upon the type and the scale of a specific mission. For example, back in 1993 the Izhevsk OMON was commissioned and operated in Moscow, helping the Federal MVD Forces prevent a coup d'etat. In 1995 the Izhevsk MVD troops were sent to St. Petersburg as an auxiliary force of maintaining public order. In the period from 1994 to 1996, twelve times OMON of Izhevsk was operating together with the Federal (Moscow) troops in Chechnya. Along with surgical and patrolling operations, the Izhevsk OMON was deployed as a peace keeping force.

They work great, didn't notice any snow whites when I made a few KLA vs Serb missions last night

The naval infantry look like they should be great too.
