VeloX Units

Recommended Posts

VeloX Special Forces (RapidShare Mirror)

Here is a Rapidshare host. This literally took me 20 times uploading, my internet is really having its troubles this evening.

Stewy, I really haven't noticed that, some have the goggles, the Demo/AT4 models and then the others have Goggles. I could always subdue the lense and make it not so obvious.

Thanks mate - I didn't know if the goggle tex was part of the model or not...

If you could not make them orange - that would be cool!

Thanks mate - can't wait to try them out!

Alright, from what I'm understanding, we are wanting some Navy Seals Units, and I'm really Really Digging the Latvian Units. So I'm going to add Desert U.S. Navy Seals/Olive Drab Navy Seals and the Latvian Camo.

Thanks for the interest guys!

Just started working on them this morning. This is what I got, I'm tweaking the OD colors, and I've just about got the MOLLE vest how I want it.

I put up a screenshot of them.

Hello,

I don't know if you know this or not but, the SEALS have a black vest and a black/a little dirt protec helmet. Heres some pictures -

Click on the USA flag to see the Seals, then click on the arrow pointing right to view other classes.

And some more screens -

Those pictures are very old.  Last I checked the Navy SEALS (nor any special forces) were not using the Pro-tec helmets very much anymore.  Most of them are using various integrated communications/ballstics helmets made by various companies.  They all look similar but essentially are a bit like MICH helmets with the sides cut out for comunications headsets.

You can see some of the helmets here:

Others like this guy, are just wearing what looks like a regular MICH helmet .

I suppose it really just depends on the mission regarding what equipment they use.  Nevertheless, with all the new ballistics helmets designed for specialized communciations equipment (and with good shock abosorbing properties), there is not really a need anymore for the plastic pro-tec helmets that offer no ballistics protection at all.  Back during the early 90's when the pro-tec helmets were used a lot, there were no helmets that had the sides cut out to make way for large communication headsets.  The then current PASGT kevlar helmets also did not have the shock absorbing properties required for high speed CQB assaults in buildings.  Today the MICH type helmets meet most of those requirements and offer at least some ballistics protection.  

Still with that said, I am not an expert, so its always possible some SEAL units may still be using the Pro-tecs for certain missions as they are way lighter and more comfortable then kevlar helmets, especially the type with holes on the top of the helmet that allow for better ventilation.  Unfortunately they also allow for ventilation of the brain if a bullet or shrapnel hits it.

Oh...I did just find this pic on wiki:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Navy_SEALS_training.jpg

They are wearing them for a ship boarding training mission which makes sense as they have to move fast and their are many things on a ship to smack your head on.  

At any rate, its a moot issue as you can't very easily edit infantry addons without the upcoming 02 mod tools for ArmA.

So unitl then, we're stuck with mainly just retextures of infantry.

Hey guys.

I see that you are all growing ancy in anticipation, and I'm taking all your suggestions to heart. However I am unable to change any model helmets, create new ones due to BIS inability to continue on with a promise that I should not continue to go on about.

Anyway.

As what I have no, I am making an Olive Drab Version, and a Desert Version. The Olive Drab version has your OD pants, Geart, and an OD MOLLE Vest, taken from the picture where they were fast roping off onto a carrier, they were also wearing the Pro-Tech Helmets. So therefore this is what I'm going to go with, as I really do not have much of a choice. I'm still working out some kinks, I have to re-texturing all 20 some models, because somewhere in the process I lost wound textures on most units (FTW!wink_o.gif and thats just bullocks if I were to release it with some basic stuff not functioning.

So be patient my padima's, quality first, quanity second.

Yup, I sent him a PM like the fool I am. He let me know it was just a screenshot update, the next version is WIP.

My fault benxcore! I jumped the gun on that one. I'm a bit slow tonight and that didn't even occur to me. It's great to know you are still working on these. The last version is one of my all time favorites.

Nice shots! But it looks like someone will make CS of ArmA, and I don't feel I'll like it smile_o.gif

Very good addon. But it's seems to be something wrong: they're laggy and they don't have blood texture.

I can't wait for desert SF!

Aha, and I've figured out why. Unoptomized face textures, half the lot of them are over 750 kb for a face.

Hmph, and wounds? Bollocks, I hate that. I'll whip up a fix and put it out with the Seals.
