Playing around with textures and the new test model Vilas made.

Dont think they will show up like this in the final thing but something similar will surely be in.

And heres a idea for the sniper, some parts are only photoshopped but the final should look kinda like that

as old WW2 pack - vilas_mod, one of vilas_config_somethig

ane WW2 pack should work

maybe other addon colides ? 1.08 of ARMA ?

Please check your PMs, Vilas.

Please send me a pm too. My weapons don't fire and I made a mod folder too. Also I see at the tip of my weapons are white blocks??? One more thing I also get a eror message that states can't load villas textures...Thank you

Nevermind I downloaded Villas vilas_mod.rar and placed the mod files in the mod folder. Problem solved duh.... Thank you I look forward to more WW2 stuff. I have most of the Ofp WW2 stuff installed in my ofp directory and they are great. Now it seems WW2 stuff for Arma is going to br awesome!!!

Hi,

Where can I download Vilas T-72 pack ?. Thanks

[Sevan 0]

add more a little more magazine pouches and equipment storage pockets.You guys seem to be able to do that without major problems. The BIS Opfor models are too bare looking. I like the boots.

Hi,

Where can I download Vilas T-72 pack ?. Thanks

Check the first post for all the links for his addon packs, in case you didn't see them. As far as which one has a T-72, I'm not sure. Try #2, 5, or 12, I'd imagine it's gotta in one of those. Sorry I can't be more specific. Hopefully someone else can assist more than I.

Edit: Here's the T-72's, I believe. There could be more in another pack as well but I can't say for sure.

T72 NSVT, T72 ERA is in VIBI (now beta on FTP.CZ because we work on normals and new textures to civil vehicles)

old version on ARMAHOLIC FTP

new "beta" contains normalmapped many vehicles, but is still w.i.p. (of course better looking than old vesions few months earlier) but still not new color textures, and not every vehicles get normals

Sevan - you don't read what i said before, WW2 is now "quick fix" only, not NEW version of addons, new version will contain new textures, new models, shadows, normamapping to weapons

now it is only quickly fixed pack to replace SLA reskins

new WW2 will be made after 1985

it will be the same quality as 1985 than , with new models of soldiers , high detailed texture with "real" details

[Soldat-Hans 0]

yep, its a quickfix only! And it is really good!!

[CanadianTerror 0]

The addon quality gets better and better.

Good work Vilas.

Hi,

I have a quick question. Some books state that the T-72M1 is a T-72B but others say it is an uparmoured A with an additional 10-20mm armour ? What is it infact ?

[Jezz 0]

Russian----Export-------west nick name

T-72-------T-72M

T-72A------T-72M1------Dolly Parton

T-72B------T-72C/S-----Super Dolly Parton

The B brought improved FCS enabling the firing of the SVIR ATGM along with impoved armour and new turret

[Supernova 0]

Thank you it is now much clearer. Seems S(cyrillic C) has a nice nickname "Shilden". Also appears the T-72 is the original "ural" with a few metal boxes on each side instead of the skirt.

[vilas 477]

my T72 is only "different" in machinegun on turret DShK>NSVT, nothing more (except ERA version)

but for 1985 we still work on new VIBI too , also there will be added new BMP-1 (changed and better than previous), there will be more east 70'ties vehicles as: PT76, ASU85, GAZ 69, KRAZ 255, OT 62 - this will be vehicles made orginaly for POlish LWP MOD, but now upgraded, new textures, normals, fixed models etc.

[Shadow NX 1]

I had the chance to test some of the vehicles and i must say its absolutely stunning how these vehicles look in ArmA with the new normals and bump maps.

The gigantic KRAZ truck or the ASU-85

Only things to make them better is make smdi files more BIS like ( only parts have a rough looking glow instead of a whole part of the vehicle ) and add them as Russian ones too in a more green tone.

[topas 1]

there will be more east 70'ties vehicles as: PT76, ASU85, GAZ 69, KRAZ 255, OT 62

think some of them can be shown at the current stage. Textures are being refined, detail is being added and a proper combat/field look implemented

OT-62 Topas transporters and Amphibious Tank PT-76 (WIP). Additionally you can see the Polish version of OT-64 with 2AP turret

KRAZ is not yet ready to show

Vehicles originaly made by Polish mod LWP-MOD for Operation Flashpoint

Looks very good!

one question though: will there be 'unmarked' versions as well?

anyway, I hope to see them in lots of missions, because I found it to be quite a shame that so many high class addons for ofp were never used in missions

[vilas 477]

these vehicles made orginally by LWP MOD were desiged as Polish Army

we make new textures, normalmapping, model fixing, but probably they will stay Polish marked

my SKOT, BMP1, 2S1 Gvozdik has no markings and will stay like this

but Topas AP, SKOT AP < typically Polish construction turrets

PT76, ASU 85 - Sovietm, but honestly - useless

PT76 is light floating (swiming) tang, it has armor like BMP

it has cannon a little stronger than BMP-1, i don't know why PT76 was called "tank", it has very weak armour , it is swiming/desant light canon for me

ASU - 85 mm cannon is weak,

so all this vehicles are worse in combat than single T72, or AT-3, AT-5 even rocket armed BMP

OT62 is not armed like MT LB, so probably no use of them in missions other than Poles support to goverment of North Sahrani in 1985

but this kind of technic would be better for 1970 missions

Maybe u can add a zil pack. There was a great zil pack in the ofp. Maybe u cann get the promision from the original author for bringing ofp zil pack in too arma. Just the idea. And just too say great work. I hope it will bee finised soon.

Keep up the good work.

[Supernova 0]

Oh wow I am really excited now TOPAS and ASU-85

[topas 1]

Hi all

Just to keep you informed on what's being done at the moment; or to be more precise; what's in the plans and will certainly be worked on  (real life issues keeping busy atm). Had time today only to make a really quick fix on the textures and shoot the pics below.

The whole thing is a real WIP, so it does not represent the quality I'd like to achieve in the final version (some of the pics; for example gaz69 or asu85 show only the converted models in OFP quality*; and you have to admit they fit even without texture upgrade) Stay tuned for updates; they'll be some.. some day  

*of course with semi-normals applied by Vilas

[lennard 447]

Wow that looks great! I love the quality stuff you an Vilas are making now. Keep it up.

Lennard.

[topas 1]

glad you people like it this keeps our engines ruuning  

We are thinking of bringing this baby over as well.

6x6 predecessor of the Polish truck STAR 266 already known to the community, but used paralel with it due to it's superb offroad characteristics.

Star 660

Seeing those vehicles in ArmA makes me happy!

Nothing beat's the cold war equipment.

I can't thank you enough for your wonderful work!

[Supernova 0]

What I would love to see is the RM-70 and the VZ.77 Dana 152mm

[vilas 477]

new model of BMP-1 will get new textures soon

ARMA tools sometimes do not work as good as old Oxygen on "sharp edges" and "2 face mesh"

sothings that were looking good in OFP had to be remodeled in some parts too

of course screens are w.i.p. and in some elements will be updated

as WW2 updat will come after project 85:
