Thanks to Smookie for lending some animations. Add's units & weapons depicting Commando's (2CDO) and Engineers (SOER) serving in Afghanistan within the Special Operations Task Group (SOTG). As the gear queers among you will notice they have become somewhat of a merge of gear used from a few years ago to current day bits and pieces. In the interest of not wasting quite abit of work from people it has been left that way. Units also have different 2CDO Coy patches, this was more or less done to give recognition to more than one of the Company's and not just one of them. Hopefully it all works ok, and you enjoy them :) We didn't do SASR, nor do we have plans to for ArmA2.

Special Thanks (Sabre): ---------- ArdvarkDB - I would like to personally thank Ardvarkdb for taking on the modelling side of this project, as people would have seen I had been working on retextures of various models in the past to somewhat represent Australian Special Forces, however I was never quite happy with the models and other parts. I think what he achieved was more than I expected and seeing his skills improve over the course of the project has been great fun, thanks mate.

Sweet stuff mate. As someone who rarely get's to play ArmA these days taking screenshots while testing textures is most of my fun. Really look forward to this. :)

This isn't the right thread for these videos.

It's stuff made by SafetyCatch, not sure if he is still about there is bound to be someone who was also in 'TaskForce 86' that knows.

Cool to see how this has come along after seeing the early days. Best of luck with it in the future, it looks the goods.

Promising stuff fellas :)

The usual way, edit your soldiers in the editor or make your own config.

Should be back in the next version, abit of miscommunication led to that one coming out.

Sorry but no, they (CG and M72a6) are from AAW, I know our work when I see it. Where you got them from is irrelevant really, although it'd be nice if you could pass onto them to stop using/giving them out that would be good too. Can you please remove them now. Thank you. Don't even know what your trying to say with the Call of Duty part.

Carl Gustav and M72 are AAW's, no mention of us anywhere, nor am I sure If you had permission to use it for A3. I believe you did have permission for A2. Some other interesting inclusions in the files, the Tan Molle belt texture is from Ardy and I's SOTG A2 addon, not sure what that's doing in there. Might pay to go back over thing's and find out what you guys actually 'made' it seems.

The M249 variants in-game are not final. They are however a better placeholder in there 'un-finished state' than the OA version we where using was in our opinion. Once some of the other latest pieces we require are modeled (for the 249 and 240L) the variants will be finalized. No timeline on it though as usual though, when it's done..

Yep. We are.

Yes full ACU to accompany the current ACS/ACP they are wearing now. We will not be making bloody dress uniforms haha.

Episode 1 of the new RHS podcast is live! Go inside the development of the RHS Escalation mod. Developers working on both the USAF and Russian Forces talk about the content you can find that is new to the .38 release. Also, we discuss some upcoming features and assets.

Looks great BIS. Good stuff, looking forward to using this :)

SPC with pouches are coming, as well as the ISPC (sometimes aka MPC). Don't plan on doing any MTV's at this stage.

It's the FAPC's from SOTG as well. No idea, still not all that likely at this stage.

Can't speak for Misty's replies, however I can give my own. These where added in as an extra just cause we had the pieces from Ardy, the extra attention to detail perhaps wasn't applied because there is no focus on SF or SF related equip yet, was more of an addition of opportunity. Most of that kind of stuff in the mod currently is because we thought it would be good to throw it in as a 'placeholder' as 'most of the pieces' where laying around etc. as some people might get enjoyment out of it. The issue was noted and is known. I can't say when it will be addressed, whether someone has the time and wants to do it tomorrow or it doesn't change until/if ever SF equipment does become the focus. If it's breaking immersion, maybe we can take it out until it's up to standard, whenever that is.

That's still a MICH, but the LWH and pouches have taken steps closer lately.

Please excuse the placeholder animations, the release pins not moving with the feed tray cover and incorrect ejection as well. Early in game version. It's all planned...

Congrats on the release

Nice work on the Tavor, nice and used :)
