The Kitbag backpack has a Camo selection in its shadow LOD, resulting in shadow artifacts when hiddenSelectionsMaterials is used. Can this be fixed please?

I thought there was a Dark Grey Camo colour skin for the F-38C Peregrine??

 

Did it get removed or did I imagine that?  lol 

 

It's still there.

Respawn bags can't be moved around - you will always spawn at the first place you deployed it.

Hey y'all - new update out! Check out the thread for images and links:

AK-74U aka 5.45 magazine has missing camo selections in its 2 LOD(?).

 

Also, can we get a camo selection for the signs texture on the Xi'an (and Blackfish if it doesn't have them)?

[General Discussion (dev branch)]

ZSU-39 Tigris has a inverted handle on the turret hatch.

 

The UH-80 Ghost Hawk's co-pilot stick is inverted in the 1st LOD.

 

Kamysh and Tigris have driver / gunner / commander hatches which aren't part of the camo selection in distant LODs.

This was answered over on the Arma 3 Aegis discord but for those wondering, Bohemia recently added a new hiddenSelection to the Zamak which Aegis uses to fix the white wheels on pre-Apex Zamak trucks.

 

Simply add:

hiddenSelections[] =
{
    camo1,
    camo2,
    camo3
};

Or alternatively another texture path (ex: "\A3\Soft_F_Beta\Truck_02\Data\Truck_02_chassis_CO.paa") to "hiddenSelectionsTextures" to fix this.

Can "O_NVGoggles_blk_F.p3d" and "O_NVGoggles_blk_off_F.p3d" in "A3\Weapons_F_Exp\Binocular\" please be moved to platform? None of the other CSAT NVGs require Apex and this one isn't even available without mods.

 

Cheers,

Avery.

Use the Steam Workshop. 🙂

The Beret (Black) - headgear_beret01 - model has a camo selection in its shadow volume. Please fix. Thanks!

The ghillie_hide selection is also broken for it, and it doesn't hide under ghillie suits.

 

 

And again, can we please add hiddenSelections to all NVGs and Binocs for modders?

Hi AEGIS...
In the Russian faction, I love the designs.
I wanted to suggest a version of the regular troop in Urban would be easy to make and very interesting.

 

Good luck with the project, there is a very clean and high quality Mod.

 

Thank you!

 

Something similar was considered in the past and might be attempted in the future. 😉

only first state is retexturable - try moving nvg down for instance.

 

 

	class NVGogglessdasdfsa: NVGoggles
	{
		hiddenSelections[] = {camo};
		hiddenSelectionsTextures[] = {"TEXTURE HERE"};
		class ItemInfo: ItemInfo
		{
			hiddenSelections[] = {camo};

Whats with the modular helmet of the AAF, the AAF tanker helmet, the boonie, ...

Except all the static objects like the ural, brdm2 and other wrecks, the not finished building, ...

Their To 199:

 

Oh yeah, the AAF Crew Helmet is also from Arma 2, but none of the other helmets are.

 

Also that first picture of the To-199 is from an Arma 3 mod.

Some models got better textures and normalmaps and so on but yes they unfortunately reused much of Armed Assault content, but in the previus Armas we had so much and today we got a renamed Kamaz for feeled every ind faction and did you noticed the headgear, most from A2 ...

 

And by 'most from A2' you mean the Cap and Shemag? Literally everything else is new.

Mora and Gorgon don't count. The Arma 2 Pandur is from a mod I believe, and has literally nothing in common with the Gorgon model down to the polygons. The Arma 3 Mora is a completely upgraded version of the Arma 2 Warrior with tons of new detail is completely re-UVed with new textures. Also, you forgot the Hellcat. 😛

 

The Merlin and Pawnee are from Take on Helicopters but I wouldn't count them because they're not from Arma 2 and still pretty different from that game considering... y'know, they're armed.

 

tl;dr @Wonder_Bra doesn't know what he's talking about.

Hey. Can we please get hiddenSelections for binoculars and NVGs? It 100% works - no reason to use duplicates of models for retextures.

 

NVG simulation - its retexturable:

 

Binoculars simulation - its retexturable here too:

PLEASE I AM ACTUALLY BEGGING YOU GUYS TO ADD HIDDEN SELECTIONS I JUST WANT MY GREEN LASER DESIGNATOR PLEASE.

 

Look at how neat it looks, I just need one for infantry now. 😞

Arma 3 hasnt much to do with A1 & A2.

Not much content, many place holder (Mi-48, static weapons, drones, ...).

The worst performance in the whole history of Arma and so on, worst modding community ever in the Arma history, its pretty diffrent, so if you want a bad gaming experience you just need A3, do not worry.

 

Imagine making an account just to shit on a game.

Applying custom materials to the Ifrit via hiddenSelectionsMaterials or setObjectMaterial breaks the Ifrit's shadows. This issue seems to fix when you have two of the same models spawned, within range of each other for both objects' shadows to render.

 

Also I think hiddenSelectionsMaterials breaks the glass hiding from damage too.

 

PLEASE fix this.

The eyes for the Persian heads (\A3\Characters_F\Heads\M_Persian_01.p3d) still cannot be retextured - I'm guessing someone forgot to include them in the 'personality' selection.

A question. Do you plan to add a tank for British Forces faction? Either a Slammer (in Armaverse it's considered to be NATO standard in 2030's) including it's specialized variants like Scorcher and Sandstorm. Or Kuma perhaps?

Altough IMHO BAF in Armaverse 2030's could use same MBT's as US. So Slammer, Scorcher, Sandstorm and even Panther, Bobcat and Cheetah. And supplement these with either Marshal or Gorgon.

 

Also will you expand USMC faction with vehicles?

BTW Keep up a great job at expanding vanilla factions, it makes game certainly more interesting. 🙂

 

Thanks!

 

No plans for either of these things I'm afraid.
