Aeneas2020 10 Posted February 25, 2010 (edited) Thanks for the info. the reason i asked about the meindls is because i have a pair i bought for climbing the himalayas 10 years ago. I still love em and still have em great boots. Just never seen people in an army using them before. As far as what i am intending to do. Here are my plans: 1) I've been helping out DDAM and Modern Irish Defence Force mods and will continue to do so. The IDF infantry textures are done but i need some help with the model (as usual i'm getting binkowski to help me out whenever he can). I will also continue to help binkowski out with his projects whenever i can. 2) I really need to get into this stuff for the 31st Normandy mod i promised to help them out with. 3) The Dutch guys: I love working on this project and i want to turn it into a full blown mod like Bundeswehr etc but obviously i'll need a team. I have formed a pretty good group of guys around me but progress will be slow (see point 4). For now I will be working on updates such as the vests and getting out marines etc. For which i need refs (so please get me some dutch marines, or cloggies/cloggers as we called em). Anyway I also still intend to eventually do brand new models for the KCT but i am also aware that there maybe be 2 or 3 other members of the arma2 community working on KCT models, one of which certainly wants nothing to do with the mod. This is unfortunate but it will mean of course there will be more variety once we release. 4) Personally I am also transferring to a new division within my company which involves moving home and setting up again. That means my time over the next two months will be limited but I will try to get done whatever i can. I appreciate all your support and hopefully using the refs u provided plus some more I can get back to work! p.s. i still have raven dk working on diemacos and some other cool stuff! So i will release those as soon as they are ready. p.p.s. I have several pms in for helos and vehicles asking to either use the existing dutch reskins or create my own ones. Either way the next release will include the dutch apaches, a ch-47, hopefully the f-16 and I maybe a land vehicle.

GolfLimaRomeo 10 Posted February 25, 2010 Thanks for the info. the reason i asked about the meindls is because i have a pair i bought for climbing the himalayas 10 years ago. I still love em and still have em great boots. Just never seen people in an army using them before. They are indeed great boots! The ones provided by the Dutch military are called Meindl Army Pro's. 3) The Dutch guys: I love working on this project and i want to turn it into a full blown mod like Bundeswehr etc but obviously i'll need a team. I have formed a pretty good group of guys around me but progress will be slow (see point 4).

This is unfortunate but it will mean of course there will be more variety once we release. That is good news! I would love to help you with 3D models etc, but unfortunatly I don't have any knowledge of that:( I could help you with references though!:D Greetz! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flv*venom* 83 Posted March 16, 2010 Hi there! looking forward to the new dutchmen. Although everytime I came to the Netherlands something bad happened to my car. :) but that's another story... however, I have a question which should probably be directed towards RavenDK because it's aimed at the Diemacos he's doing for your infantry: All Diemacos done so far for Arma and Arma II have the standard M16 Type metal magazine. However on most pictures of the dutch they appear to use a plastic mag, which imho looks much sexier. so the question would be: will they use the usual or the sexy mags?

On international ops moste diemaco users tend to use the metal mags from what i heard, they are easyer to get out of the magpouches, but i am considering to make the plastic mags for a couple of the rifles :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I never have problems grabbing them out my pouches :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AfterDune 10 Posted March 24, 2010 My, this does look good! Will download when I can for sure :D. So, have you guys established a team now or..? Keep up the good work, looks promising! And now, we need voices ;). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aeneas2020 10 Posted March 24, 2010 Well i mean really it's just me, binkowski helped a lot with the models and raven did the webbing on the helmets (and hopefully we can use his diemacos when he releases them). But other than that there is no team. I will continue to work on them....compiling more of a mini mod when i have the time. Thanks for the comments though.

AfterDune 10 Posted March 24, 2010 Either way, it's coming along nicely. I sure hope you can use the Diemaco's (C7A1, I assume?), it would be really good to have those. Everything that makes the faction more unique is good (in most cases :p). I'll keep an eye on this thread, am very interested :). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aeneas2020 10 Posted March 31, 2010 Gentlemen I am recruiting. I need someone who knows how to get .obj models into game and also how to work on vehicles for arma2. I have had a great many donations towards the dutch mod and I am now looking to get back to work on it after my mini break while moving house. SO IF YOU ARE INTERESTED AND HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH 3D MAX, O2, SCRIPTING or anything to do with vehicles in arma2 let me know. I also need refs for: GTK Boxer, Fennek, M107, M110, Technical B (Jeep).... I have faith that the dutch community will provide :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
