    Now that sounds like the begining of a joke..LMAO

    Why do the Croatians only have a helmet strap on one side?

    So they can tell their left side form the right one! :rofl:

    But the real reason..er...well we are a small country and can't afford a strap that goes all around a helmet... :D

    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;

    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.. :unsure:

    There's something funky going on on the helmet though, looks like he's got a strap around the helmet on one side but not the other.

    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;

    Talk about an identical clone to the Springfield XD 4" Service model!

    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

    I'll be sneaky and do some high res ortho renders of the model to use for my own modeling reference.

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

    @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 characters. I suggest we continue any further plot discussions via PM or E-mail, so not to give away all the sweet treats ahead of time ;)

    well, I was just about to say "F'it...I'm in! Sleep is for the weak!"  I'll knuckle down and try to create some Colonial Marines in the few moments of spare time that I get my hands on. Now all we need is a scripter and mapmaker to get this show properly on the road again.

    and on a side note....the wife is going to kill me for this...LOL

    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 time...;)

    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 operating the hoist?)

    Anyway, if you feel up to it, I'd be happy to continue with the mod. I already have a prety good beta of "alien" character, I'd be happy to send you the max.file for further tuning up. And remember the M577 APC?

    It's also done and working in the game...so all we need is a few colonial marine characters and at least one map.

    Who knows..maybe we could talk AUS_Viper to script a mission or two for the mod...I know for a fact that this is the one GR mod he'd personaly liked to finish.

    Think about it and let me know!

    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 Stealth Mods Team, skin and equipment mod plus 3 new missions...

    just a question

    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.
