Kenbow 0 Posted May 19, 2007 McNools, Excellent Add-On you have here.... 1 Question: Can you make a "Replacement Pack" Addon that would replace the default vehicles with your desert pack? Something like the EBUD US SF soldier Replacement Pack and the Johnny's Marines Replacement pack. It doesn't permanently change any orginal files, but does re-skin the default vehicles for single player misisons and MP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't have time to explain it either. But creating a modfolder with the wheeled.pbo and tracked.pbo in it, unpacking them and replacing the textures with the desert ones and then repacking it should do what you want whenever you start the game with that mod-folder.

Vulture2k1 0 Posted May 20, 2007 Nice, will rock with the 1st Division Pack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcnools 62 Posted May 20, 2007 Pleeeeeeeeeeeease make a replacement Mod with this Units.. but are there really Desert Strykers? :X Nope, I don't think there is desert strykers, it says in the readme that they're fictional it just didn't feel right to do all vehicles except the strykers, and I figured they looked quite nice in desert camo.

Vulture2k1 0 Posted May 20, 2007 Maybe you can make some olive ones with much of desert dirt on it, like often seen on photos ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcnools 62 Posted May 20, 2007 Maybe you can make some olive ones with much of desert dirt on it, like often seen on photos ) Well, I could, but I don't have the time. if anyone else wants to do it using my textures as a basis, they could contact me.

jdhaines 0 Posted July 20, 2007 I'm not sure if anyone else have had this problem or if it is just me, but I have a problem with these vehicles. I used the replacement pack made by CSL and plugged it in and it worked great. The only problem is when I use them in multiplayer. Every vehicle that is reskinned with the McNools desert (Opfor and US) is about 5 feet off the ground to me. If I shoot them, or get in them they will fall back to the ground, and then rise back up again over and over. I'm guessing that this has nothing to do with the textures themselves, but someone on here might have an idea as to the problem. Thanks in advance.

Kenbow 0 Posted July 20, 2007 Nobody's got any constructive critism to give yet? Â Yes... The pack should be revised to include desert camo for UH-60, UH-60(FFAR), AH-1 Cobra, A-10, and Harrier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wilco 944 Posted July 21, 2007 Mcnools: Awesome pack man, the only thing I have to say is that the HUMVEE looks like its just a Saturation/Hue job. It's an awesome pack though and I know creating a brand new texture takes awhile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyinBullets 0 Posted July 21, 2007 I agree with Kenbow, it would be nice to see a desert skin of the UH-60 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krabsworth 0 Posted July 21, 2007 Idk a desert UH60 just would take that menacing look away from the helicopter, plus i dont think the u.s. does them, at least Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyinBullets 0 Posted July 21, 2007 No, I dont believe they have them either, think they just use Black in situations like that, but it would be interesting to see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdhaines 0 Posted July 23, 2007 No ideas on the floating Humvees, strykers, and dirt bikes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcnools 62 Posted July 23, 2007 The problem is in the replacement pack I belive, so you'll just have to ask the guy who created it I have nothing to do with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
