By default, this includes both the rolled and unrolled sleeve configs. This results in a whopping 258 uniforms total in your uniform list, which might be too many for your purposes.
If you only want one version of the uniforms, just remove whichever version you don't want.

niko_usa_cfg.pbo - contains only the unrolled sleeves.
niko_usa_r_cfg.pbo - contains only the rolled up sleeves.

niko_usa.pbo - contains the texture & ui files, DON'T DELETE THIS ONE.

Huge thanks to FP-AIR and bistudio communities, who helped with playtesting the pack, etc. <3

NOTES:

This is the first addon I've publicly released, please let me know if there's any issues, or if you have any suggestions.

FUTURE PLANS:

Helmets, maybe more vest variations if you guys want?

Currently working on another uniform mega pack, this time it's all Russian/East Europe uniforms/gear. Flora, TTsKO, Partizan (Summer and Autumn!), SURPAT, Shadow Kamysh + OMON Kit, FSB Multicam + Kit, Digital Flora, you name it, it'll likely be included.

After that comes all the other countries, expect stuff along the lines of: Canadian CADPAT (TW/AR), Latvian LATPAT, British DPM, Swedish M90, AUSCAM, Police uniforms, solid colors, etc.

Both of these are mostly done, it's just a matter of properly cleaning up the configs, doing icons, rounding some corners, etc.

Once these packs are all done, rounded, bugs fixed and cleaned up, I'll also be submitting the packs to Steam. So don't go reuploading this to Steam or anything without permission. <3

Really interesting pack! Good job :)

Can't wait for the Russian/East Europe!

[cuel 25]

Great work with this!

[Bamse 223]

Really good job and good looking uniforms!

Would it be possible to add DCU pants with Desert Night shirt? If possible also the parka version of it :)

thanks a lot!!!!!!!

please make something for CSAT gear and helmets!

[red_spring 294]

Those uniforms look nice, good job! Helmets and vest variations (that you reported as future plans) would be really awesome, I can't wait to see the Opfor uniforms too! :)

[disco.modder 116]

[evromalarkey 150]

[kasrkin85th 1]

could you please provide a package without the US Flag in the plate carriers?

at least the tan and coyote brown one would be nice :-)

Thanks! I won't keep you waiting for too long. :)

Great work with this!

Thanks Cuel! Lemme know if you want a trimmed version or something for FPARMA.

Really good job and good looking uniforms!

Thanks! Yep, I'll be sure to include a DCU & Night Desert top combo in the next update for you. Unfortunately there's no Parka in game, and I'm not able to do any custom models atm.

thanks a lot!!!!!!!

You're very welcome! :)

I'll consider it for the future, but I'm actually not a huge fan of the CSAT equipment.

Thanks! I'll be updating the pack with some more vests and helmets in the near future. Any specific helmets/vests you boys want?

Sure! I'll upload a separate PBO for you. Do you just want Velcro w/ no patch?

Thanks everyone for the overwhelmingly positive feedback! Feel free to post more suggestions, I'll likely update the pack by the end of week with some requests. :)

Very impressive :) Looking forward to your Russian pack as well. Great job. Will the Partizan Leto/Osen be on Gorka E mountain suits, or Partizan/-M sniper suits?

Edit:

I just tried on all the uniforms in-game, not only in the virtual arsenal; and I've got to say "very impressive" is an understatement. This is hands down the best quality uniforms available for the game, thank you VERY much for this. If this really is your first public release addon, I am 100% sure we have only more excellence on its way.

PS:

As unrealistic as it is, is there any chance of a plate carrier rig featuring the Desert Night Camouflage pattern? I find it works excellent in the forests of both Chernarus and Stratis/Altis.. :)

Thanks for the release, Niko, the uniforms look excellent. Very nice selection and quality. The only uniform camo that I felt was a bit off, was the M81 Woodland...which seemed to have a little too much pink/red in it, making the camo turn out extremely dark looking. But then again, that is only my opinion and may have been done that way for a reason. Overall, great addon and will be awesome to see more countries uniforms in development. ;)

BTW, were you planning on doing the Air Force ABU uniforms as well?

D'aww, thanks man!

Yeah for sure, I'll throw in a night desert vest for you next update. :)

Yeah, I had a lot of trouble with my M81 swatch. I just picked up an M81 BDU though, so I should be able to get a better swatch from that. I'll fix er up for the next update.

I actually totally forgot about ABU's, I have a swatch for that already, so I'll be sure to add that in there as well. :)

[Dorak 11]

Rebane got it right, these uniforms are probably the best looking ones available for ArmA 3 yet. And i tried many.

Keep it up.

[red_spring 294]

Well, I have in mind some specific helmets/vests that would fit well with your uniform pack or at least look good, Do I post some images here or Do I send you a PM ?

[theevancat 277]

I'd like to see some more choco chip variants. Maybe the pants with a khaki jacket or something.

Other than that, will download when I get home!

[Bamse 223]

NikolaiSergeyev: regarding all above changes and additions. U DA MAN! <3<3

:D

[ghostnineone 10]

Post whatever ideas you've got here. :)

Will do! I realize now that choco chip/six color got a bit neglected.. My bad.

Not a bad idea actually, I've seen realtree shirts/pants on some very Tier 1/CIA looking guys, I might throw some in there.

Also, have some quick content to sate your Night Desert needs: (Pardon the JPEG compression.)

Okay, so I thought about something like those ones (some simple helmets):

http://www.hiairsoft.com/images/helmets/MICH-2001-Helmet-HAN1008.jpg

Some helmets would look nice with drawings or customizations :

Or with blood types and patches :

For the vests I was thinking something like that :

http://img04.taobaocdn.com/bao/uploaded/i4/T1POxTXbxaXXXwOVDa_120031.jpg

Aaand last but not least, some of the desert units would look cool with a kefiah like that :

http://i00.i.aliimg.com/wsphoto/v1/1579886796_1/110X110CM-Cotton-Army-Military-Tactical-Unisex-Arab-Shemagh-font-b-KeffIyeh-b-font-Shawl-Scarves-Scarf.jpg

Those helmets and vests are quite similar to those that are already in the game, but if you could add details (flags, patches, insignias, etc) your unit pack would become the best pack ever.

Sorry about all those links, but if I put the all the images it would have been a mess ;)

[PTV-Jobo 820]

Really, really nicely done mate. <thumbs up>

[Flecktyphus 1]

Red_Spring: I don't really feel like doing that should be Niko's job. There are plenty of custom helmets out there.. why not add patches to them yourself? Also, there are already Kefije in the game.. multiple colours. I personally think Niko should focus on what he wants to, and it seems like it's uniforms in multiple camouflage patterns right now.

Niko, the DNC vest looks great! :)
