Conflict Zone Mindanao

[itim_tuko 0]

While we (CZM) still are working on our beta for OFP, I did start to prepare some of the models for ArmA.

So here is the Daugoog Guntruck which is in use by the Philippine Marines in the Mindanao area.

I looked up CZM mod (I'd never heard of it before) and saw

the things you have done for Op. Flashpoint. It looked

interesting and offers quite an unusual collection of

units. It'd be good to see all of that in ArmA (and the new

engine, of course, will let you man both of the Machine Guns

on that "guntruck").

Nice job... but this is still an ofp picture, right? When can yo present some for Armed Assault?

For now our primary work will be for OFP. When the tools for ArmA are released we will release the first pics shortly after we transferred the models to ArmA standard. Further info on the planned releases of the final mod can be found on our website which soon will be public.

Time for a little update on the things we are working on:

Here is our V300 wich will come in 2 variants. The APC and the FSV. Both vehicles are used by the Philippine Marines.

I still got some problems with the creating better textures for my M35 Truck, but as I was working on some different variants of it:

M109 Shop Van which will get different interiors:

M108:

Still working to OFP or are you completely doing this to ArmA. The models quality doesnt yet look the realistic one but without textures hard to tell.

[itim_tuko 0]

After internal discussions we dropped the work for OFP as we had to many plans for ArmA. Sorry for disapointing people who where waiting. But what if I may ask isnt realistic yet for the models mrj-fin?

The V300 was a 5 hour work so far and it isnt finished yet. But I do aim for a mix between a good model and good gameplay so I will make a lot with the texdtures too.

The reworking of the model of the M35 trucks is slowly coming to the end before I'll rework the textures.

as you can see the cabin and the front has been made new from scratch.

lol ?

What purpose in the game will the different variants of

your "shop van" serve? I presume that truck with the crane

jib on the back is a "repair vehicle" (where tanks and things

go to get ArmAgically "repaired" in-game).

[itim_tuko 0]

I planned to make the shop van with different interiors like

Ambulance

mobile HQ (with the option to rearm soldiers)

Communications truck

the last 2 will be used more for missions as targets.

If you have further suggestions just post them here

To fill the islands with some life I am working on several buildings and structures.

A city sign

Hut

a little market

village mosque

As there is a lot of work to do we are looking for texturers and modders who would like to help.

Great!!

the Philipine soldiers is like this??

[Col. Faulkner 0]

Any chance that a Scorpion (as in the pic at far left) will be

included in the CZM mod!?

[Commando84 0]

cool vehicles! Hope the ones above in the pics will be included

they don't look so big but i guess that they are small cause they can move around better in the jungle and stuff?

Off course, and also the M113 FSV

And some WIP pics of our soldiers

Full size

Further pics

A Scorpion would be excellent. Is that FSV an M113 with

a Scorpion 75mm gun turret? That'd be an interesting and

unusual (and useful) vehicle in the game.

Are you also doing the Filipino MSSR sniper rifle (again quite

unusual - a good 5.56mm sniper rifle)?

The "combat photos" of the marines in action look very good.

The ones in the second picture are National Police Special

Action Force, yes?

I think that you haven't got a very good response on here up

to now because most people probably know little about the

modern Filipino forces, or what they are doing, and perhaps

because your first pictures of your models appeared to be of

rather "Operation Flashpoint quality". It's clear now from this

that that first impression was misleading.

Thats the Philippine Version of an FSV where you have seen correct. They use Scoprion turrets. Australians used it too, but it was attached a bit different. Danish forces uses on similar version too or at least used one as I know.

Off course and also the M3 SpecOps

Thanks and thats PNP SAF forces. A mod about the Philippines wouldnt be correct without the PNP as they take a lot of the workload against terrorists and rebels.

To be honest Im still trying to learn how to mod, and Im not realy satisfied with all my models yet. So I hoe I can imrove them much more.

[Col. Faulkner 0]

Off course and also the M3 SpecOps

That SpecOps M3 looks amazing. Your mod has some very

interesting stuff in it.

Some progress update

MSSR (very early alpha - sorry for this)

The MSSR is a philippine made sniper rifle wich was made for use with the Landing Battalions of the Marines. The AFP didnt had experienced gunsmith's for the M24, but they had a lot of qualified personal for the M16 and it was cheaper to manufacture.

After wish from a fan an update of our V300 APC

and a close up of the turret

and off course also the V300 FSV

and the V150

which also will come as the Ambulance and Mortar carrier version

[Col. Faulkner 0]

What does the V300 mount in the turret? .50 caliber and

7.62mm machine guns?

[itim_tuko 0]

The V300 APC has a 7.62mm and a 40mm grenade launcher. The .50 Caliber and the 7.62mm is used on the V150.

Finally I had time to show my last progress of the M35 as the texturing work is a bit harder on the model then I thought of:

Well this is like my Marine Ready Force camo version looks like:

The pics are a bit older as you can see that the canvas are still green. I did make the canvas in Berlin Brigade Camo style too. Does anyone know how the real canvas looks like on the trucks.

[itim_tuko 0]

Has been a while now since I made an update of the topic.

Imt trying to get the trucks ingame now (damn configs) and make the first betatesting, before Ill send it to our testers.

For all others here are some progress pics:

M151 Jeep (rebellious fraction of the AFP)

Guntruck "DOGS OF WAR"

early pic of the back without textures

Guntruck "DAUGOOG"
