Russian Naval Infantry (Desert)

[Stagler 39]

Modernised Russian Naval Infantry (MORPEH) v.2

Requires ARMA 2 Combined Arms

This is v.2 of my Naval Infantry. They are completely new models from the old version, a seperate addon you might say. They also come in woodland and desert flavour now. Firstly id like to appologise as the classnames have all changed. Id also like to appologise because the Pilot, Commander, and BRDM2 have been removed from this new version. This new version has the new PASGT style Russian helmet and newer armoured vests. The Naval Infantry arent as well supplied as the motor rifle or VDV troops so they still retain some older equipment. That is why I chose to use the older vests and no digital flora camoflage pattern.

I designed these to go alongside RHS BTR70. All vehicles in this new version share the same desert camo as the RHS BTR70.

v.2

• Russian infantry with naval troop insignia addon with OA features like backpacks and TI.
  
• Russian Mi8, Ural, and UAZ desert reskins.
  
• New KSOR camouflage pattern.
  
• Requires Operation Arrowhead.
  
• Works with ACE 2 (They will be incorporated into ACE soon).
  
• Works with any weapon replacement packs including Suddens AK74M pack.
  

Classnames:

SG_NI_Soldier

SG_NI_Soldier2

SG_NI_Soldier_GL

SG_NI_Soldier_AT

SG_NI_Soldier_AR

SG_NI_Soldier_MG

looks real good, great work.

[Devil Dogs SF 13]

I love any addon for Russian Federation. Good job.

[vasmkd 12]

Super addon. It gets the thumbs up from me:bounce3:

[Brainbug 10]

Doesn't work for me, I'm getting an error "cannot open object russiandesertinf/dsoldier.p3d". Tried running without any other addons except the beta patch, no success though. Anyone who can confirm or deny this issue?

Apart from that, the textures look rather low-res, but that might be just due to the screenshot settings. I would have provided some better ones, but if it doesn't work... :(

[Stagler 39]

Brainbug ill look into it buddy.

[thepiespy 2]

I get the same thing, units are invisible when placed in editor, and outright crash the game when set as player.

I have the same problem :rolleyes:

[Devil Dogs SF 13]

Yep, I crash when ever I try to load a level with these units on it :(.

Same with me. :confused:

[deadpool2894 14]

i also ctd when i load units on maps

[Stagler 39]

this is a proper fuck up then isnt it. Ill have a check it might be an error with the way binarised the files.

[DiFool 0]

Shouldn't be a big deal.

I'd like to make a few suggestions:

1. I'd like to see a config using Vilas' weapons.

2. Would be nice if the units might use the modern Russian shoulder patches. If u pm me your mail adress I'm gonna send some scans.

3. The helmets are old model, too.

Nice work. Keep on with it!

Ill do a vilas config sure let me just fix these first. Im still trying to find out what is the problem.

[Chrisgs 10]

Good OPFOR work, thanks. Will try em out, see if i get a ctd also.

[Brainbug 10]

Also judging from the screenshot (which might give a wrong impression, I admit), the KSOR pattern seems a bit too dark, if you compare it with photos like this:

There is a quite high contrast in the pattern (which makes sense), the lighter areas are really light sand colored and the brown is a medium-to-dark brown. In your screenshot it looks all brownish with only slight differences between the different color tones, and overall a bit too dark. But again, it might just due to a low texture resolution in the game settings when the screenshot was taken, and single screenshots are often not representative due to the changing lighting in game, so take my judgement with a grain of salt.

It's probably a problem due to the binarising. I had a similar issue that was fixed when I turned off the binarise option on binPbo.

Update released first page.

v1.1

@Brainbug: Im trying to find a newer better sample to base the texture off. The sample i possess already is the same one used by the project reality mod. (I am not affilliated with these in any way by the way.)

[Devil Dogs SF 13]

You could ask SARMAT about their camo texture, theirs wasn't that bad on their ВДВ (VDV) desert troops.

[Stagler 39]

good idea devil dogs.

OK, this one works, and it looks indeed cool, way better than I had feared from the screenshot, the resolution is not too low at all. Although I still think the contrast could be a bit higher if you want to make it closer to the real thing, these models have a good camo effect e.g. on Duala. Here are a few impressions (you can use those pics freely if you want):

I wonder if you could do the helmet cover in the lighter digi pattern too. And also it would fit to have some soldiers with a visible undershirt in the characteristic white-blue stripes of the marine troops.
