Jonny´s Marines

[MehMan 0]

Don't worry, it's not for me, it's for the mods. They like to replace sigs with the fluffy bunny and I thought I'd give you the heads up before they do with a WL+1.

jonny,  

  Also, SPECOPS units Are also allowed to use personal, custom gear. they can use different ammo pouches, ie. Buttstock pouches, pistol ammo pouches on opposite leg... they're own sights, things of that nature they only have to blend in with the surrounding environment, such as tan for desert... those kinda things... so it would be cool if you made the recon marines individuals... like they have their own personalities....

Are these use able in public Evo servers?

Well, I just put together a replacement pack for these. If I get the approval, I can release it. I tested it a tad in multiplayer, seems to work. I only tested a few units, though. Nothing really big, so if I release it and get some feedback, I'll update it. I just put it together in about 20 minutes, so I don't guarantee anything.

Of course, I need his approval, I believe.

Hi, the best CH46E that i've seen in a video game, is the one of

the COD4 Modern Warfare, if some good man or woman could steal

that model and those textures and convert it to ArmA... damn; that

plus this Marines... will be the best addons that we could have.

I haven't heard of any UH1-N or UH1-Y in the works, same for the

CH53's, the well done EddiD Retextures are not signed, i haven't

heard of any LAV-25III in the works and the AAV7's that i know

that are on the works... well, i think that we'll be importing the

one from the ArmA2 before that they be released. And i do care

to touch army material with my Marines; i say it for the M998's,

that many people complain about the realism of the addons etc,

and for have it all upgraded to the ArmA quality standards... we

will need good models and better textures for ensure that nothing

stand out too much at the side of other same related addons.

Anyway... i hope to have some day propper USMC vehicles so

we could enjoy a small USMC Mod having as main element the

units that John have made so well. Let's C ya

[Dark SudoNix 1]

you know what, i really dont use anything but jonnys marines and wip insurgents... thats it... you know what aggravates me just a little?... that the sakkah al jihaf island is only for queens gambit... have you seen how good it looks?!? holy f*ckin sh*t!!! I wanna f*ck it... alright enough with the language... anyways, dude, it looks so good... and if you check the wip forums there is a guy making a ch46 and if you go to combatprison.net youll see that aguy is making a uh1y...

I was down at Little Creek not too long ago and i saw some recon marines boarding a Ch47 (I DONT KNOW WHAT ITS ALLED) but it was black and had the mid air refueling pylon on the nose and the swept back blade tips for silent flight... also looked a lil wider... so, my point is that, force recon marines, and marines at that, dont just cruise around in "MARINE VEHICLES" cause not all marine equipment is suitable for the mission at hand... I can vouche for that personally...

[wipman 1]

Hi, i've that island 1.0 and indeed is very good, the best urban island

that i've seen until now; but im not that focused into the desert

or irak themed islands and as im not a missions maker... sadly i just

can mount pointless firefights. But the Queen's Gambit buildings add

a better atmosphere to not only desert themed islands, also to green

islands, savana style or tropical islands; they're more OFP style

(wasted, used, advandoned) than the default ArmA objects. I'll

recomend you to check out a island called: Gardinas. Is by it's terrain

rugosity, the best island that i've seen; half dry but with big woods

areas where the John's woodland Marpat BDU's fit perfectly, in

there you can notice how the AI's behave different than in the

common plain islands. Let's C ya

perhaps does it soon still another USMC give mod? which we already have;

-jonny`s marines (the best of the world)

-m1a1

-super cobra`s

-amtrack (spanish mod)

-handweapons (which is still missing: m40a3)

-island-> south-sahrani by lester (very beautifully), sakakah al jawf

-hmmwv`s

-av-8b (t would be beautiful, if the av-8b had that MARINES signature still)

it is missing still;

lav25; ch53e; ch46e

sorry for my bad English.

@wipman

sh70 sea hawk??? is nevertheless spanish navy?

I can vouche for that personally...

MH-47? 160th SOAR I think operates few. And seeing that they ferry around anyone who needs to get somewhere fast & low, or whatever the mission requires... very likely.

[Heatseeker 0]

The woodland marpats are my favorite units.

Have you thought about pilots for the AH-1Z's?

Anyways.. many thanks Jonny, you did a great job on this pack .

[hypno toad 0]

You should check in with the Operation Northstar guys, and do their texturing for the troop models they made.

Hi, there isn't any released coop that uses the John's USMC released,

at least not in any public server where i'd been; EVO or any other

coop. Maybe when he end with the Force Recon units some scripter

could do us all the big favour of make a USMC Evolution that uses

the John's units, but sadly again... it'll only be USMC units, as we

ain't got any USMC vehicle, no SH-70's Sea Hawk, no CH46E Sea

Knight, not UH1-N or UH1-X, no LAV-25III Piranha, no USMC M998.

All the USMC vehicles that we've are the AH1-Z & AV8's B.

Let's C ya

Actually it'd be pretty simple to change to USMC units. De-pbo mission, edit in editor , change all respective units to USMC units.

[wipman 1]

Hi, it wouldn't be so easy to transform the common Blue Evo II into

a USMC Evo or Green Evo if you want, not only for the leak of USMC

related vehicles or the leak of permision to do it; the Evo have 3.000.000

of scripts that should be revised and we haven't (yet) Force Recon

units to take the place of the default special forces. But with other

kind of less scripted missions... yes, will be easy. Let's C ya

Just ask your self if you would get bothered by a question that you know can not be answered precisely and then eventually in a satisfactory manner, if you will.

I wouldn't get bothered but I sure do realize that others possibly feel differently. Still if I was going to ask about the release date in every single WIP on this forum the least I could do is read the topic beforehand. I'm as anxious to try anything in game as the next man but anyone can figure out that the more time one takes to answer the same questions, the less time to get something done.

Hey, who knows.... Maybe he is happy to take that time though. I'm just having a little fun with you.

[stun 5]

I've noticed that all the marines (version 1.5) when viewed from behind at a distance of approximately 19 metres or greater have a small black square/shadow appear where the lower part of their vest should be. I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue or is it just my setup? I thought perhaps it might be a LOD issue which is present on the marines when it switches at this distance?

[wipman 1]

Hi, yes, that's a LODs thing, i also noticed it too; when the units

are a bit far they switch to a LOD with less poligons/objects/detail

so when the back pack dissapears then you see the texture that it

was covering; would happen the same in the BIS engineers with

that big mine that they've on they're 3 days patrol pack.

So i guess that's a matter of what you want; performance... or

shape?. Let's C ya

[CameronMcDonald 146]

THe 2.00 LOD doesn't have a kidney pad. When you look at this LOD, the _AS map's shadow, which is usually under aforementioned pad, is visible.

Much of a muchness, as far as errors go. I'd rather that Jonny fixed the accidentally merged point in the mouth.

Blame me for being annoying, but any news?

[wipman 1]

Hi, i think that for this (possible) final update (the Force Recon)

may be a good idea and a pimp thing to change the units map

icons for the same icon that the OFP USMC Addon Pack 1.0 units

by Earl & Suchey's had; so in combinated operations we'll know

faster which units are which. This will not only help in the faster

ingame (map) recognition, it will also help alot to the mission makers

that may want to do some mission using this units plus the default

BIS army units or the Cameron's army units. At least i'll like it... .

Let's C ya

[Kaldas 0]

Hi, maybe some news ? . I find cool Recon Soldiers in VBS2 but with ACU unifrom not Marpat Desert.

[bugkill 7]

Nice vbs2 pics, but what is with the black boots in the third pic? The tan desert boot is the authorized boot for the ACU's, not the black ones. I hope they fix that.

Any minds of doing marines with green camo vests or maybe navy seals? ;p

Btw. your marines god dam* pwnz, but the shadow bug under backpack is really annoying, especially noticable in 'Beaten Dog'
