Streinger

I had a simmilar idea for my mod...you beat me there, mate!

You mean like this one? It will be released in my upcoming mod, find out more about it here .

Now that sounds like the begining of a joke..LMAO So they can tell their left side form the right one! But the real reason..er...well we are a small country and can't afford a strap that goes all around a helmet... However, there's something we can afford; sunglasses! As you can see on the last photo I posted, some soldiers wear (issued) shades. So thanks to Sgt. Croc who kindly donated his Oaklyes model, I made a new head attachment, that will be randomly destributed amongst the regulars. Ladies, I gave you the new head attachment;

Apart from helmets, Croatian MPs in Ghanny also wear uniquely designed boonie hats...so here's the boonie hat character model; based on this;

Does anybody know are DS attachments in 3DSM format available for d/l anywhere? I tried to find them, but came across GRand DS characters and IT attachments/characters only...I seem to remember that Piggyson mentioned them in his attachemnt exporting tute...I think there was a link too..

And here he is;

Nah..that's just Croatian helmet canvas design for you, mate...it has the elastic band on left side only! Here's a bit of a larger pic that shows it; @Zeko....I won't even ask!

I know this thread has been kinda slow lately, but this mod isn't dead yet! After much work, here's the final version of a new character, Croatian MP: Expect some in-game screenies soon, then a new character

Exactly! And I can provide you with some hi-res photos of the pistol if you need them...of my own pistol;)

LMAO..allow me to let you in on a little secret, Snow...it is the same gun! HS2000 is Croatian pistol that is sold in US under the name Springfield XD. The factory here in Croatia produces "blank" versions, and then, depending on the market it's intended for, the markings are engraved acordingly. You can find more about the gun here

here's one of my best pistols...it's in a mod I'm currently working on. this one is already released in a mini-mod..also, it seems like the Alien mod will be finished and released too

that reminds me....how did I find all those hi-res M577 pics from all the angles? Ah, yes...I did the same thing!

@Snow, I found that same dropship model, however, I couldn't figure out how to crunch it down to something GR compatible...if you manage to import the bird into GR, (and I have no doubt that you will) just make sure you get the author's permission.. As for maps, there are several ways we can handle it...we can convert some day maps into night to enlarge our selection...SOAF maps might be nice too. With AvP movie out, I guess it's not too far fetched now to stage the mod on Earth. Maybe in the near future, definately near the original "Alien(s)" time frame..so we can justify the weps and the

Great news!! As I said, most of the weapons are already done, only smart gun remains to be finished. Incinerator and VP-70 pistol probably deserve a better texture, I don't mind re-doing them. (gun files, however, are quite OK, IMHO) M577 APC is done and working, interior, turret and everything... Character wise, the mod needs a nice alien model, and a few variations of colonial marines. Map wise, we'd have to decide are we going to stage the mod on existing maps or try to find a mapper to make us some new ones. Scripting wise, I'll start bugging AUS_Viper to work his magic one last t

That's dead on, Snow...in fact, the movie prop team made only one "pulse rifle" that was fully operational, meaning that both SPAS part and Tommy gun part were operational. All other rifles had a non-working prop mounted under the barrel. The M41 clip had to be shortened somewhat, so the mag capacity was something like 20-25rd. Still, somehow they made it completely beleveable in the movie! LOL Interesting story goes on, as that only fully operational pulse rifle was painted black and used once more in the ending scenes of Alien3 (remember the Weiland-Yutani merc knee-capping the convict

Find me a mapper, a scripter and a character modeller, and the mod might be finished yet...

Here's the new, working link

Here's a small preview of what' s in there...

Two loudest sounds in a world: a bang when it's supposed to go click and a click when it's supposed to go bang....

I'm ashamed to say, but this one applies to me...DEAD ON!!

Wow..thanks for such fast and detailed replies, my friends..this community has once more proved to be everything a commaradery stands for! I can now finish the character I was working on for some time now and move on with my mod....

I need a little help, guys...can anyone identify the type of the combat vest (chest rig) on No 9 ghost (the one to the far right)? And furter more..can anyone point me to the link where I could find more pics of that same rig..preferably the back side? Thanks...

After some time, I finally have some news about the mod; first of all, I went trough entire thread and re-posted all the renders, now uploaded to a different host site, so there should be no more bandwith exceeding problems. Secondly, thanks to Giwex, we are now nagotiating with not one, but two mappers. I don't want to make big statements or mention any names yet, but if all goes well, this mod should feature at least two brand new maps. Keep your eyes on this thread for further news....

Hm..if we are going in alphabetic order, then why not mention ADF mod by AUS_Viper (skin and equipment), Desert expansion for the same mod, and off course Operation Stabilise, a full conversion mod (missing only new maps),by Aus_Viper, Streinger and Giwex, featuring Australian SASR, but also Brazilian operative, British Ghurka and so on.. Canadian Operatives mod (oldie but goodie) by BjB (skin and equipment) and CO2 by the same author, full conversion..Canadian operatives also available in Sabre Teams mod, again by BjB. Then there's Croatian Army mod, by Streinger, Black Sabbath and Stea

You probabaly read it in Op. Stabilise mod thread...I made Remington 870 shotgun with a holster point rotated so when standing, the weapon appears to be slung on operative's back. It's also positioned that way when operative is in prone position, but unfortunately. due to hard-coded weapon types, in crouch position, the weapon moves away from the operatives body. There's nothing we can do about it, I'm afraid.
