Unsung 3.0 - W.I.P THREAD
Hi all ,
Well its a new year and time to move forward. The unsung team have had a rest from our 2.6 release for A2 and we are looking to move into the next installment of the Arma series. We have done extensive testing and work on the 2.6 release to the point where we are happy we have a solid base to work from as we progress.
However, We need your help.
We are currently seeking Config writers, Modellers, Texture artists. Especially those whom have experience in porting A2 content to A3 taking advantage of PhysX and other engine enhancements.
So if you want to be a member of a strong team and a mod that's been around for over 10 years, then please send me a PM
For those new to the Arma series who don't know who we are have a look here:

Model replacement - ideas for donations

mosin nagant / pu scope $75
https://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/mosin-rifle-sniper-scope-3d-model/776064
we get a discount on luchadors models, so the following prices are indicated at approx discounted rate.
RPG-7 (approx $40)

type 100 $40

kar-98 with scope ($60)
https://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/3d-model-kar98k-rifle/730996
there are a bunch of new vehicles in the works, but the guys making them are very slow.
If you find a vehicle that you would like to donate, it must be textured, uv-mapped and under 30k polys. this is a major problem for many models available on the internet - they are often over 200k polys/faces and arma would not handle it.
