Nixo 10 Posted July 16, 2010 (edited) Well my multicam frenzy continues. I showed these units a couple of weeks ago and said I would release them soon since I have lost the interest in them. But now when I think about it, it would be very crappy of me to just release unfinished work. So I have decided to carry this to the very end. Please post your suggestions here what you want to see. I will keep the Crye Multicam theme. So no suggestions about some Halo super fantasy armor & camo :) The units will be deviden into two cathegories Normal & Light. Normal soldiers wear Crye precision flyye armor... Don't know the real name but it's the one in the movie transformers 1 and ghost recon 1 game. The Light will wear CIRAS plate carrier. RELEASE! Hey hey. Here is my multicam units spiced with a little bit of crye gear and made with Johannes Sf guys as base. I have tried to sign the files and make a key. I have no idea what I have done but I really hope it works. Have fun. Screenshots by Enad Download Link: http://www.multiupload.com/Y6EO88LGXV P.S. You most likely need to have Combined Operations in order to play with these.

Nixo 10 Posted July 19, 2010 Close to release. Need someone to take some release screens. And 3-8 Beta testers. P.M. me if you are interested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scfan42 0 Posted July 20, 2010 Well, since you're asking for suggestions... I'd be happy to see proper* aircrew equipment done in Multicam. AFIAK they know they haven't shifted the aircrew stuff over to Multicam yet, but I suppose they should eventually. Some reference pictures: http://www.google.com/images?q=air+warrior+system If you're actually interested, I could try and come up with some better reference pictures. * To the best of my knowledge, the Army did away with the "green bag" one-color one-piece flight suits for aircrew in October last year, so having them in ArmA isn't exactly proper. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have mostly focused on Infantrymen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nixo 10 Posted July 20, 2010 Now the models for 1.0 are all done. Some texture issues still remain to be fixed. And here is the pilot helmet with a 10 second texturing and about 30mins of modeling :) I suck I know. But it is a start. It will probably not be included in 1.0 Beta tomorrow. Sign up by P.Ming me.

Nixo 10 Posted July 22, 2010 The Army Pilots and aircrew are still wearing Tan nomex suits here in Basra, and only the PJ's are wearing Multicam ;) The addon is not about realism :) So it's not supposed to be an addon which represents the US Army as it is now, going to be. Nor does it represent the Future warrior system or whatever it was called. It is just an addon, and the units wear multicam and that neat looking crye body armor (as close to the real thing I can get it) IF someone has some pictures or finds or knows about any pictures of the currently by pilots used vest. OR the one that is shown in the Air Warrior pictures. Let me know here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pre-Vet 10 Posted July 22, 2010 The Army Pilots and aircrew are still wearing Tan nomex suits here in Basra, and only the PJ's are wearing Multicam ;) still in basra? thought you guys left. would be nice to see some more airforce personell in the game, TACP, PJ's and so on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scfan42 0 Posted July 23, 2010 The Army Pilots and aircrew are still wearing Tan nomex suits here in Basra, and only the PJ's are wearing Multicam ;) Yay for being told inconsistent things. Alwell. And now for a bit of detailed talkings. There are two vests, the body armor, and over that is the "survival" vest, which is the one loaded with MOLLE straps. The front, lower, camo'd parts of the vest are a bit thick, since they have survival equipment shoved inside them. There's a harness around the legs so the crewman can be hoisted. A few other notes... the mouth/face mask isn't really needed, it's there to protect the gunner's face from the wind when he sticks his head out at 150 knots, and pilots don't wear them. And the uniform is slightly different from regular ACUs, mainly that the pockets have zippers, there are second pockets by the ankles, and the funny long pouch on the inside left leg. Now, for pictures... the gear on the vest isn't very consistent, especially since some of them aren't in theater. But getting something kinda close should be good. Can't complain too much about free. :) Couple ones showing magazine pouches: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4080/4812145382_0f425a6d17_b.jpg http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4123/4798415617_c8104568e6_b.jpg One type of M9 holster: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4011/4292595505_bb242227d5_o.jpg The rest: http://usarmy.vo.llnwd.net/e1/-images/2010/03/29/68172/army.mil-68172-2010-03-29-090336.jpg http://usarmy.vo.llnwd.net/e1/-images/2010/02/16/64325/army.mil-64325-2010-02-16-090233.jpg http://usarmy.vo.llnwd.net/e1/-images/2009/02/24/30996/army.mil-30996-2009-02-24-100202.jpg http://usarmy.vo.llnwd.net/e1/-images/2010/02/07/63768/army.mil-63768-2010-02-07-090214.jpg http://usarmy.vo.llnwd.net/e1/-images/2010/01/15/61558/army.mil-61558-2010-01-15-040152.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ryguy 10 Posted July 24, 2010 @SCFan I think what he was trying to model it after was the jet pilot oxygen mask which is used in High-g's and in case of cockpit depressurization? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scfan42 0 Posted July 25, 2010 Helicopter crews don't need oxygen unless they're operating above 10,000 ft for an extended period, and Army helicopters aren't pressurized. The mask shown in the pictures I referenced is basically a piece of plastic that attaches to the sides of the helmet. Also, managed to find a flickr stream with a bunch of reference images: http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=Air%20Warrior&w=40633065%40N07 The stream has a bunch of other stuff in there as well, included a few images of armor crew.

ryguy 10 Posted July 28, 2010 Ah, got it... I thought you were meaning to model the oxygen mask for jet pilots (obviously blackhawk pilots don't need oxygen) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
