Good work G_H these are looking pretty good now, have been playing around in the editor giving vil's SA80's and L42 sniper to about 150 guys (plus SAW gunners) also with your landies, chucked in an arty script, bunch o baddies (bout 200), and mapfacts Apache (with brit markings of course )

ABSOLUTELY MENTAL    

great fun really was, one o the best moments for me in ArmA so far, ended up with a very tense firefight in the centre of Obregon (in which i took one between the eyes from a sniper   ) but team switched to watch the rest of the battle on TroopMon, and back to the original point i thought the Brits looked real cool and are looking better with the new screenies, so thanks for keeping me entertained (and i don't suppose you gotta a nice Challenger tank under there      oh for the modding tools lol)

Ta much

Ok here goes my modest opinion

The woodland version is very nice, nothing negative to point out, I really like them and to me it's one of the best addon (in terms of textures) made for Arma so far.

The Desert version has two problems, first they are too bright and second you should give them a more dusty look, it seems like they just bought the clothes they are wearing.

One thing that I think you forgot was to make the CfgVehicles for them to make it easier to select them on the Map Editor.

Nevertheless it's a really great work despite the small problems I mentioned (according to my opinion) Congratulations and Thank You G_H_Play_AKA_BOSS

If you'd rather retexture the vests and use different normal maps so that they are not interceptors, I could help you out if you like. It would add some more size to the pbo, but from the looks of these units it might be worth the extra trouble They look great so far.

Yea i think that would be tottally awsome buddy if wot you mean is make more british looking vest for then as the u.s. ones dont quite cut it but still look good,& im all up for that.

You have probably downloaded the ones from the link above so have a go at it,but will the config ect... that we have, have to be changed, & also the damned is also making the kevlar helmets & i am going to re texture them.

Plus am a big fan of the work you have done all ready i have your stuff in my @Addons folder lol.

& thanks for your positive comments, as we have worked night & some time all day as well cheers bud your help is needed.

[Messiah 2]

Sorry if I wasn't clear. I meant that if you want to make the body armor accurate to what british troops actually wear, then I could help you with new normal maps and getting them working. I wasn't thinking that I'd make the actual vest textures. I suppose I could give it a go with proper reference pics.

lol i see no problems my mistake, but on another note i could all ways do some research & find some really good pis if you like.

I would also have a go at making them but cant find o2 to download any where ,but it would be nice to finish them with brit webbing & pouches.

[Messiah 2]

new O2 isnt available to download, old O2 can be found on the breate site:

http://www.flashpoint1985.com/breathe/index.html

as for references ebud/boss I've got hundreds of photos if needs be. Untill the proper tools are released, we aren't going to make much use for them.

you can also search google and the MoD site for osprey/kestrel body armour for the desert guys, and ECBA for the woodland.

Cute.

One thing (just a suggestion) : I've noticed (by experience) that repeating the same patern on the uniform too often (like on the sleaves of the 1st screenshot for example) doesn't produce a realistic effect. Patterns are not repeated that often on real uniforms. Somehow you'll have to "disrupt/break" this repeated pattern.

[Blackbuck 9]

Try finding a bigger swatch than the ones we have then.

[plasman 0]

Or just try to do some kind of "patchwork" with the one you already have, mixing small bits of patterns with others taken from a different part/area of the swatch.

[G_H_Play_AKA_BOSS 0]

Yea guys thanks & yes your totally right im changing that now

And yes they do look a bit pants untill the changes are made.

Only took me five hours to do what is done all ready, they was just a rough version & are unfinished but cheers guys all help is needed.
