ajsarge 10 Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) Very cool! Are you going to be releasing them as another blufor side? (like the F-16 mod) Or just as a new "[ranger]Rifleman" kind of deal in with the marines? Blueteamguy: All the XM8s are that way. I'd use them more during multiplayer if they didn't block so much of my view. Plus, I remember seeing a picture of some rangers with HK SCAR-H's showing off during a NASCAR race. (I can't remember which model it is. At least it's not the Crysis SCAR. But codemasters did get the idea right with giving the SF units SCARs) PS: Nixo-Change the straps for the holster and belt to an olive drab or "coyote" tan. The Camo'd gear doesn't look as good with the black material compared to OD. You might even add a basic lo-res texture to it so that it's not a solid color.

Nixo 10 Posted October 18, 2009 DELTA ONE ZERO Excellent work with the Rangers. Though just wondering do you have any plans to add knee pads to any of the units in the future? -Yes, soldiers with kneepads will be added before the beta release. BLUETEAMGUY Sup?I noticed that you have a guy with an M8 Compact, any chance you'll be doing the actual carbine as well? I think the compact is... Small and the way BIS has it gripped doesn't look right to me. - The M8 will most likely be removed. But if I use the M8 the carbine will more likely be equipped by these units. AJSARGE Very cool! Are you going to be releasing them as another blufor side? (like the F-16 mod) Or just as a new "[ranger]Rifleman" kind of deal in with the marines? They are under BLUEFOR/75th Ranger Regiment/2nd Rangers. And holster colour will be changed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nixo 10 Posted October 21, 2009 That would be coooll. Nixo91, you can ask the permission of .jhonny (creator of awesome US SF), he designed some awesome backpacks too Yes, that has crossed my mind. But then again I am pretty determined to do everything myself. I asked him to convert his units to arma 2 and i asked ardvarkdb to do the same thing (multicam sf) but Jhonny tought his units were not ArmA II quality, wich I do not think is the case cuz they look fantastic. But it is his units, his decission. I will probably ask for some models of Jhonny, and if I have time and will I could ask him if he would be so kind to send me his unbinarized models so I could convert them over to ArmA II. P.S. I am taking a short break from doing my units. I have got a lot of things to think about right now. But I promise a release! I am not leaving this project at all. See the release in a couple of weeks, Before Xmas atleast :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nixo 10 Posted October 25, 2009 (edited) BETA VERSION AVAILABLE Download Link Radipshare:http://rapidshare.com/files/297490349/NIX75thRangers.7z Armaholic mirror: - 2nd Rangers Multicam Required addons - M4 Front Handgrip Weapons (included) - M16a4 Front Handgrip Weapons (included) NOTE units are at beta stage! You will probably find many problems with the units, but it will be fixed later. These units require christian.1987s Handgrip weapons m4a1&m16a4. The weapons are included in the download file! The units are found under 75th ranger regiment/2nd rangers. There is alot of units wich has got no special purpose therefore I have not yet given them the correct names, you will find soldiers with names as Ranger X and sf3/sf4 etc. Remember this is just a beta, it was released so you can tell me what I need to improve.

yanquis 10 Posted October 25, 2009 is there a reason you can never get proper 'groups' in mods? it would be nice if you could have the option to deploy a squad of OMON, BW, rangers etc, instead of having to deploy individual units every time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
