schnapsdrosel 0 Posted January 21, 2009 Man, I really wish you could use the body armor that are on Jonny's SF units, or something similiar. Your units look great, but I really think that you need to ditch the default BIS IBA's, despite you making them look better with extra pouches, and using something more modern. Well then, all you need to do is get me an unbinarized .p3d from Johnny’s west model and his permission to use it. Send it to me and I will start updating my models immediately  Only wishful thinking, brother.  I'm pretty sure that if you could change the armor, you would have done it a while ago. I asked Johnny for the permission a while ago, in the time of waiting I could have made the vest myself, but I thought, that it would be stupid to create something for ArmA that is already there... That's the reason why the vest’s still look as they do now. But maybe if there would be more people bugging Johnny to give me the west model, it might increase the chances that it will happen some day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Binkowski 26 Posted January 21, 2009 Personally, I'd go with Blackhawk or Eagle combat vests. They're well made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Elite SEAL 0 Posted January 27, 2009 Excellent work on the vest, very impressive. Will you be creating some new pouches to go along with the vest as well? Like admin/map pouch, pistol magazine pouches, utility pouches etc. Or just stick to the BIS default pouches and vary them up a bit dependent on the load out of a particular class?

JanMasterson 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Thank you Schnapsdrosel for this very nice Civilians pack, it's a great addition to immersion during our missions. Here is a little something that may help fellow mission makers, a simple pdf document showing a picture with the classname and displayname of all civilians belonging to the civ side.

However, you need to add the airborne tab over the 101st patch on the green baseball cap. Also, any possible way you could make that cap tan? I think it would look better with that color.
