Doc. Caliban Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 This is all very odd ... I downloaded it from this actual post, and from the DL site, and both opened fine. I wonder if it's a .zip version issue. I zipped them as plain .zip files though. -Doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnTC02 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 That is strange, Just tried the download in the first post but it's still giving me an error, using 7-Zip here but I never have any problems with zip files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc. Caliban Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Here it is again, freshly zipped with WinZip. (I swear I'm going to register that someday ... I think I've been 'trying it out' for about 18 years now.) -Doc GPNVG-18.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricard78 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Thanks guys. I have not touched Recon in years now, I am enjoying the new breath of like. Rockfall is pretty good with these goggles abeit a little difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeealex Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) Don't think so dude.Seriously in the dark that guy would look like some crazy cyborg ninja.It could be done by someone who does uniforms and attachemnt modding. And if someone did, we'd have to put the two mods together! That would be awesome.-DocOh, I think that you misunderstood me - I meant the uniform, not the soldier with the NVG (but he is also a good idea). Do you know how this type of uniform is called?There's no Mod that makes the operative look like that exactly (the Crye G3 shirt, The factory pilot gloves+the ARC helmet for instance) but there are plenty of multicam uniform mods. i doubt it would be too hard to skin the G3 shirtas for the mod, i like the widened viewing angle, it makes life a little easier.

Psychomorph Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) Psychomorph, "I only wonder, should the outer circles not be complete in view and not cut off?" You are exactly correct. The problem is that, to make the circles all fit on the screen, they would have to be much smaller and your vertical field of view would be very. very narrow. So since the game does not directly support wide screens (it just stretches the image) we end up with the outer edge of the circles going out of your FOV, but we retain a reasonable vertical FOV. I'm glad that you like the mod though! The movie didn't portray the actual view through the devices, but it was the first time I'd seen them, so I found the manufacturer's info and created this based, actually, on the image that you posted … just had to run it off the edges a bit to keep it usable. -Doc You're right. I use widescreen without problems (only I guess FOV is reduced) and it did not occur to me that you adjusted it to fit with the default 4:3 aspect ratio.

Doc. Caliban Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 I used to play in widescreen, but noticed that, since I don't use an app to increas the FOV, it just stretches the image out which means I have to glance further to the sides to see the same thing. I play in the highest 4:3 now and don't lose anything "off the edges" since it was never there. ( I don't let the monitor or GPU scale the image to the native res, because that would just stretch it again.) I think the in 16:9 or 16:10 (RIP) the outer circles would still be clipped off to some degree. -Doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
