Thanks for clarifying. That's what I thought as well. As fingolfin has said even though personal re-textures are abit of a grey area, the act of de-pbo'ing the addons are a breach of the end user's license agreement no matter how well-intentioned the personal re-textures are. I've seen some of my old work used in parts of personal addons and while this isn't something I'm losing sleep over, I would've appreciated a quick message as a matter of courtesy. On another note, I'm curious to know what your thoughts are on personal addons that contain assets ported from games other than ArmA? I've seen some screenshots where certain items are very much heavily modified models/textures from other games and seeing as this has never been bought up before, I've always assumed that this was tolerated.

Generally speaking, what's the ruling on re-textures and edits for personal use? (e.g., would getting permission from the original addon maker still apply?)

our thoughts and prayers are with you binks. get well soon <3

Hi kz106, we're all very busy with IRL stuff at the moment (mainly examinations and deadlines for Assifuah and I), but there'll be more updates once we crank it up during the summer. :)

:bounce3: wooow this is looking really promising!!! about time we got some tier 1 afghan door kickers!

What??? :confused: sorry our WIP pics are scattered throughout the thread :p perhaps we should look into compiling it all onto the first post!

So??? Sorry it's meant to be Maritime, we're still optimising the scale and adding a helmet cover mesh, it's a bit big at the moment. For Rangers we're debating whether or not to include the normal Ballistic version in the release since it's not that relevant at all ... hopefully the maritime will look more distinct once it's textured and scaled down :)

You'll have to wait and see ... I don't think we're going to go for that particular Wilcox mount, I've already got one that is more commonly used prepared. Someone mentioned above asking why are we using just ANVIS, obviously we're going to use a mix depending on what the goggles system's in use. Another point I want to bring up is that you won't see the US navy style version of the helmet on our initial release so the velcro arrangements, camo pattern wouldn't be the same as the pics you've posted.

Beautiful RG-31! Nice work guys :)

Haha funny you should mention that ... I've always said that Fluttershy has become our de-facto PR Representative :D Also bear in mind that we won't release image updates until we are fully satisfied with the end results, considering that we're all obsessed with detail accuracy (to an unhealthy degree) the updates won't be in quick successions.

Oh man I've been pushing for that in SOC since day one, you're not alone :)

so innocent .... ;)

We're using 3ds Max with TexTools (both free) to UV. Here's a really good tutorial video courtesy of Astast :) y_1ql8yH2Ow

Yeah what Meat said. There's no reason to be condescending and rude when correcting people, this really isn't the Arma community spirit guys. edit - Anyway I'll use this post to give a small update on current tasks (besides UVing the other models). Early WIP of MK.17s with a preview of different optics we plan on releasing with the addon pack :) Like I said it's very early WIP so it'll be subject to a lot of changes in the future.

Ah one of my favourite parts in the UK :) I'll be sure to recreate my DofE expedition route :P Thanks for the release and I look forward to more updates! ^^

Italian journalist who was kidnapped by rebels calls Syria hell and says rebels (FSA linked - Faroug Brigade) are power hungry Islamists Interesting extracts from the article Pierre Piccinin da Prata, the Belgian teacher that was travelling with Quirico, claims that he overhead a Skype conversation between 3 Rebels (one of which was the Syrian Liberation Army's General) that implies the Rebels were responsible for the Chemical attacks on the Damascus Suburbs. fkc2ZtPvc8o BBC - Syria hostage Domenico Quirico 'treated like animal' US News - Freed Hostages Reveal Information on Chemical Attacks Reuters - Italian journalist freed after being kidnapped in Syria edit - Relatively new piece of news here, I'm sure more media outlet will put their view on this soon...

I'm afraid not :| It was a helmet cover model I slapped on top of a retouched Airframe helmet (old model), really just to test out something I thought about in the middle of the night. The textures are projected image just place-holders on this concept :P @PN11A, makes sense now. Thanks for the heads up :)

Yes and No. No because as you said we're focusing on Rangers but Yes since we're very likely to expand onto Navy units in the future :) Its some sort of fancy retention system to stop accessories from falling off I think, looks pretty cool

Chemical missile similar to the remains found by the UN fired by plain-clothed operators Again hard to tell which side fired it so I will remain neutral in regards to this issue. 3rg9NGdtfOo

Blow to Cameron's authority as MPs rule out British assault on Syria eEV6ySlsAmk Makes me feel all warm inside to see the Members of the Parliament acting on behalf of the citizen's interest for once :) Towards the end you can really see the look of defeat and embarrassment on Dave's face. edit - Whether you support intervention in Syria or not, I think we should all appreciate real Democracy at work here.

Absolutely beautiful work Desert Hawk! I'll be keeping a close eye on this one :)

I doubt the Islamist filled Syrian Rebels will be any better than the Assad regime, Mattar. It's only a matter of picking the lesser of 2 evils.

You're right, god forbid me posting relevant videos and being as objective as possible so people can make an informed judgement. :rolleyes: I will leave the chemical talk here, because since the UN report is coming out soon it'll be pointless to continue speculating whether this chemical or that or sarin etc.. was used

What if I told you there's a way to debate without being rude? From where I come from you don't learn "science", its split up into different streams. I'm sorry if I didn't study Chemistry, there's no need to be condescending. Anyway I don't know why you're bringing Sarin up, I explicitly state that I am not jumping to any conclusion since the UN report on which Chemical used isn't even out. I'm not gonna act like I'm an expert on Chemistry, I'm simply relaying quotes I have taken from pages describing Potassium Permanganate for the sake of convenient should anyone wonder what the bottle at the beginning is.

Thought this video is quite interesting. This was hosted on LiveLeak 1 year ago showing what appears to be rebel groups (not 100% conclusive) testing chemical on Rabbits. The beginning shows bottles of Potassium Permanganate which could potentially damage the nervous system. I'm not saying this was what was used since UN has not released results from inspection yet. Safety Sheet on Potassium Permanganate Disclaimer - I'm not jumping to any conclusion/blaming a specific side of the conflict. Just thought this is quite relevant to the recent gas attack. Warning!
