vilas 477 Posted March 19, 2007 now i am on vacations, when i ll be back i will put on FTP good quality and real Lathani SS i made new textures, but i haven't put it on FTP Jblack - i am not replacing BIS units, when addon replaces BIS values it always make problems - see like people reported that they had errors with my addons (few sites down on this topic) they had this problems becuse somebody made addon which replaces some BIS values, so i don't do things that make problems caprera - in basic pack there are textures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sickboy 13 Posted March 19, 2007 Most of Vilas Mods/Addons are also integrated into 6thSenseMod. All in a clean structure, documented class names, ammo/weapon boxes, etc. etc. (And you can come over and play with all included in Multiplayer on our server! ) You will not only get Vilas stuff but also many others (When Vilas Updates, I usually include his updates ASAP). ATM the only things not available in 6thSenseMod are: Polish & NAM units and the cars. For the rest, if Im not mistaken, everything is in BTW Vilas, keep it up, nice improvements already!

begorra2 0 Posted March 20, 2007 Thank you Vilas for Sa Vz.58 and Uk-59 of Nogova units. (i didn't expact these to come so quickly) Please, if you update, 1. change the sound of Vz. 58 2. remove tracers Vz. 58 3. include Nogova (maybe even CSLA?) units with red berets Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jackal326 1181 Posted March 20, 2007 Thank you Vilas for Sa Vz.58 and Uk-59 of Nogova units.(i didn't expact these to come so quickly) Please, if you update, 1. change the sound of Vz. 58 2. remove tracers Vz. 58 3. include Nogova (maybe even CSLA?) units with red berets Importation of units is currently not possible with the current tools. Vilas could however modify the textures of the SLA Spec. Ops unit (as it wears a Beret). That is of course, if he chooses to do so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vilas 477 Posted March 20, 2007 when i will be back from my vacation i will put good SS to WW2 there was a lot of errors in CWC (many units have USP and M136 weapons ) yesterday i made good Nogova army addon but i am out fast net connection for week or two also i changed ACU units (in real life they have green vest , not in bright woodland-looking camo as BIS made) tracer is matter of BIS definition of ammo, not mine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topas 1 Posted March 21, 2007 Hey Vilas I have played around with .paa files of your LWP soldiers, changed the eagles on the helmets and berets to the ones used in the 70's, applied textures of polish backpacks (Kostka) and other little changes. Everything just for learning how to retexture. After making a .pbo of it again everything worked well and looked nice (well, with only minor texture displacements). All I had to do was to change one .paa file only My question is; when I try to change the .paa files other than soldiers, for example; I wanted to make a Milicja skin for your Nysa Van, or add polish communist posters to the walls of buildings - the game crashes  Why does this method work with soldiers only??

Shadow NX 1 Posted March 22, 2007 Maybe some wrong texture ration or something? However if you just worked on the base that already was there its weird. What do you use to repack? I reskinned nearly all original SLA vehicles with russian cammo and i didnt had any probs at all after repacking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topas 1 Posted March 22, 2007 I have used Cpbo to extract and repack the .paa of Vilas' LWP and it worked. Trying to change color of the van from orange to blue by modifying hue/saturation settings, replacing the original Vilas file and packing it again to .pbo did crash the game every time. Anyway.. Thanks for an encourageing answer Shadow NX, I will repeatedly try Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadow NX 1 Posted March 22, 2007 No clue what could cause this... strange BUt great looking units you got there, sweet reskins. Is the helmet netting already in vilas versions? If not could you maybe send me the layer you used to add it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topas 1 Posted March 22, 2007 The modern bacpack that comes with ArmA is definately a bad model to apply a skin like I did. Original polish backpacks of that time were a perfect square in shape. Thanks Shadow, but as my first reskin attepmt it is just a poor approximation to what they should really look like. I am sure when the tools are there Vilas will make decent LWP models, as he already did some for Flashpoint. The net is present in original Vilas unit (1985 Polish), I simply changed the eagles (Vilas has used crowned eagles - post 1989) and added a bit of folded net to the front (soldiers could unfold it in order to cover their faces with it).

topas 1 Posted March 22, 2007 Are your convertions of a 'selctive' nature or do you plan to port all of your vehicles to ArmA? As the Honker is already there, it would certainly be nice to supply the Polish Troops with DZIK and give the police some wheels too (especially Polonez Caro) Â PS; Hope you don't mind playing with your textures..

CanadianTerror 0 Posted March 22, 2007 Quote[/b] ]working BRADLEY M2A2 !!!from OFP but model was changed a little, new wheels, new cannon That thing is old and horrible looking. IMO, its not worth porting the lesser quality vehicles as they will stand out too much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

topas 1 Posted March 23, 2007 Quote[/b] ]IMO, its not worth porting the lesser quality vehicles as they will stand out too much. The models are good, only the outdated texturing stands out. Â Below my first attempts with tweaking the original (poor) textures of a Nysa Van made by Vilas and my custom made skin (solid color only for now, will serve as base for future retextures) Column of Militia Nysas (unfortunatelly a rather too common sight in the 80's Poland) Â and a civilian variant Vilas, I will PM you later, there is a texture issue I'd like to ask you about.
