Replacement Pack -3rd ID DCU

[ColonelSandersLite 0]

This pack lets you replace the BIS BLUFOR Infantry with Clavicula_nox4817´s 3rd

Infantry Division DCU. See below for complete details.

Full Size

Compatibility:

The unit replacement pack itself has only been tested on V1.05 german and

V1.07 beta german. It should work on any later version.

The unit replacement pack is compatible with FDF sounds and thepredators

modern warfare mod (sound only). For compatibility with other replacement

packs, you'll just have to try it and see. This only modifies the models

of the west infantry units, so anything that doesn't modify those should

work with it.

There are multiple install options for package included:

BLUFOR Infantry - 3rd Infantry Division DCU

BLUFOR SpecOps - 3rd Infantry Division DCU

You can use either just the regular infantry, just the spec ops, or both

together.

Multiplayer:

Should work fine as it's purely client side, although it may give a cheat

notice if the server doesn't have it as well.

Home Page:

http://colonelsanderslite.armaholic.net/addons....ex.html

Hosting:

You can host this anywhere you want, but if you let me know via PM on the

BIS forums, I'll add a link in the download thread and let you know if I

patch it. I'd also prefer if you included a link back to this thread, as

this is where I'll be posting updates, answering questions etc.

Notes:

This pack deliberatly does not modify anything about the units except for

the models. It will not affect game balance in any way. It is strictly

visual.

When using this pack, you can still place Clavicula_nox4817´s 3rd ID DCU

as normal, and they will have any and all properties associated with them.

If you're using this pack and build a mission, the mission will not

require Clavicula_nox4817´s 3rd ID DCU or this pack to be installed by the

end user unless you place the addon units as stated directly above.

This pack *requires* you download Clavicula_nox4817´s 3rd ID DCU.

The thread for Clavicula_nox4817´s 3rd ID DCU can be found at:

http://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin....t=57612

I can only support my pack itself, not Clavicula_nox4817´s units. Please

do not bug Clavicula_nox4817 for help with this pack.

Installation:

1: Browse to your arma directory (wherever arma.exe is located).

2: Put 3rdid_deserts.pbo from Clavicula_nox4817´s 3rd ID DCU in:

c:\yourArmaDirectory\addons\

3: Put the folder "@CSL_ZSD_3rd_ID_DCU_Replacements" in your arma

directory. Be sure to keep folder structures intact. Rename this folder if

you desire.

4: Inside the "@CSL_ZSD_3rd_ID_DCU_Replacements" folder is an addons

folder, and inside this is a folder called "disabled". Move the mod(s)

you want to use out of the disabled folder into the addon folder

containing it.

You can use either just the regular infantry, just the spec ops, or both

together.

If you ever wish to disable a mod without disabling all of them, move it

back into the disabled folder.

5: Create a new shortcut to arma, or modify your existing shortcut.

6: In the target box add:

-mod=@CSL_ZSD_3rd_ID_DCU_Replacements

If you already have a mod, running using the mod switch, seperate your mod

options with a semi colon. Do no use multiple -mod commands. For

example:

-mod=@ModWarSound;@CSL_ZSD_3rd_ID_DCU_Replacements

Your target line should look something like this, depending on the options

you have enabled:

C:\games\arma\arma.exe -nosplash -mod=@ModWarSound;@CSL_ZSD_3rd_ID_DCU_Replacements

If you renamed the folder in step 3 to something else, replace

@CSL_ZSD_3rd_ID_DCU_Replacements with whatever you renamed it to.

7: (Optional) Put the contents of the test mission folder in your arma

user missions directory.

I've waited for this for so long!!

[ColonelSandersLite 0]

Seems that at least one person is ecstatic . I wonder what his reaction was when he discovered firefox ?

It was no trouble really.

[cj 1]

I actually use Opera

Atleast I can actually show appreciation!

[Teliko 0]

Nice work CSL, been looking forward to this

[oldbear 390]

As it seems a good thing, I have posted a new on Armed Assault.info site and hosted the pack on our server.

[kroky 1]

Very good. Will try it out today.

So now I hope you will have time to make a replacement pack for Skaven's RACS ver2 whîch are really fantastic!

[zootia 0]

Yay! cant wait until the guy that made the DCU skin updates the SF models with the protec helmets

[Elite SEAL 0]

Awesome work ColonelSandersLite, Thank you very much!

[Teliko 0]

hey CSL, found a little bug. The automatic rifleman is still in acu, with both the infantry and SF dcu activated. Still, awesome work

[ColonelSandersLite 0]

Whoops, guess I missed one...

I'll fix it soon then

[ColonelSandersLite 0]

Teliko - What game version are you running?

It's strange because I show them being overidden just fine running the last beta (I haven't gotten around to actually installing 1.08 yet). I wonder if they changed the name of the automatic rifleman in the 1.08 config?

[Teliko 0]

1.08 German DVD. All units are DCU except the automatic rifleman, maybe something changed in them since 1.07 beta

[ColonelSandersLite 0]

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. I'll fix it up when I get around to installing the 1.08 patch. Unfourtunatly, I'll have to keep the older version around too for the US 1.06ers. Unless they released the US patch. Last I heard it was delayed.

[Teliko 0]

The international version does work for them but it is quite a bit larger

[Kenbow 0]

The US 1.08 patch was released days ago. I am using it right now. Everyone in Arma should be on 1.08 now.

[ColonelSandersLite 0]

The international version does work for them but it is quite a bit larger

OK, that's *really* wierd then. Maybe you just discovered a bug in one of the 1.08 patches that isn't in the others?

Wich specific patch did this happen in? Can you drop me a link?

The US 1.08 patch was released days ago. I am using it right now. Everyone in Arma should be on 1.08 now.

Good to know. I bought the german version bak when it was first released, so I don't actively follow the US patch stuff.

[Teliko 0]

Ehh, can't remember where I got it. Have you updated to 1.08 and given it a try to see if it's a bug with the pack?

[ColonelSandersLite 0]

No, not just yet. I've got about 5 other projects in the kitchen right now. Chief among them is this:

I just haven't gotten around to the 1.08 update, but will very soon.

@CSL

Since Skaven finished now his 3rd version of the RACS, it repeat my plea to you for a replacement config to replace the standard RACS units, as you are kinda of replacement pack specialist.

Would be great if you could and would do it!
