You might wanna check out Tier One soldiers addon, it has all sorts of spec ops for the bulfor that look like the civie takis.

Doubt many would care about such small details as long as everything else is correct. Don't forget that they could also include A2 buildings and the custom made Afghan statics. Would be awesome to paradrop as Fallshirmjaegers into Crete and fight the Britons and vice versa :D

Wouldn't the invasion of Italy, Crete be a better way to go with A3 and keep the western front to A2? Could even cram a bit of North Africa imo. It's a fresh setting and you already have all the required content to create Mediterranean maps and most of the models would only need reskining to fit the conflict. Either way, looking forward to this.

Looks awesome, would be cool if they could get thermal vision :D

A simple UCP camo retexture. DOWNLOAD DOWNLOAD PSD - Feel free to use this whole addon and psd files to replace the camo and re-release with new camos ;) Thanks Scarecrow398 for his USMC template. And Davids for the nice pictures. Included the diffuse file and the tileable ucp template ( Note it's darker because I had to make it so, to look right under the nrm overlay in the diffuse ) The units are under Blue (Us Army) and include a few soldiers. Feel free to modify any way you want and re-release, just give credit for the ground work if you're expanding on the ucp troops. Extract the rar into arma 3 dir and add -mod=@SLDR_UCP; to your target line to work. All keys included, should work online.

The Ka 60 should be easy.

Thanks for the Armaholic link! I could give it a go, I have a few camos I'd like to have them in and release as one big pack. The problem is getting nice textures.

Thanks!

I've set texture quality on ultra for these pics and I had a slideshow :D No, you can add it yourself though. For some reason textures won't show up on the helmet and gear so I'm releasing it the way it is. DOWNLOAD Extract the rar into arma 3 dir and add -mod=@SLDR_UCP; to your target line to work.

My bad, forgot to mention one thing. Make the normal map parts black and white and make them as overlay or any other filter that makes them look good and doesn't drasticly change the color also play around with opacity if you need to. I'll release my UCP soldiers in a few, will include the psd so you can check it out. You also might need to play around with the brightness of the camo because the nrm overlay can make it darker or lighter, depending on the camo shade.

Not sure if stupid... It's pretty clear that he's implying that the custom weapons in arma are ripped straight from BF3...

Texview should open paa files. Open up texview then browse to the textures directory. P3d files can be opened with Oxygen 2 or if you want to modify texture paths then through notepad++, but keep in mind that your texture path must have the same ammount of symbols as the original or it won't work. Config.bin can be opened with unRap.

Thanks. It's almost crystal clear ingame since the camo template was massive. Looks blurry due to my crappy settings and picture quality.

Sweet, although would be better if they had the new digital camo or surpat. Could also include the Ka60 heli.

I'm using photoshop but this might help. 1. Extract the required pbo with Eliteness ( I've heard it's the only one that can extract a3 pbos atm ) 2. Open the textures with TexView and save them as png. 3. Make your own addon ( I suggest downloading the recently released woodland marpat camo soldier ) It's very easy to reverse engineer the whole thing and figure out how it all works. And the author allows that. 4. Load up the texture in gimp/shop. If you're applying camo, then make it tileable first, then cover the entire texture with it and delete parts of your camo that cover parts you don't want to retexture. Load the nohq (normal map) texture and do the same as with your camo and place it as an overlay, I find vivid light at 70-80% the best, because it gives a lot of detail to the texture. After that only shading and minor details like dirt are left. That's the way I do it with photoshop and it ends up great.

Thanks for the links in ArmA2Base.de and armaholic.com @Bars91 I have some ideas for Latvian and Estonian troops sometime in the future ;) But nothing major, just a couple of regular woodland/ desert squads. Making one army is enough work already :D @ Lt_Phoenix I'm aware of that error, it's very random and rarely ever appears, just restart the game and should be all fine. I'l try to fix it.
