panzersaurkrautwerfer Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 They're great actually, just no beards. Mustaches to the corner of the mouth? Great*! But more than that is as far as I can tell not done outside of SOF dudes. I have to throw that caveat in simply because for all I know FOB Roberts in Afghanistan ran out of razors for several weeks. I do know I was clean shaven every day in Iraq, and I've policed up my mustache hairs using the exhaust from my tank to keep the water in my shave cup from freezing** It's your mod man, and what you've put out is great stuff. Just letting you know beards aren't quite right. (Also Sergeant Majors, both Gunnery and Command types all come from the same place as far as I can tell) *Ancient tanker tradition: Annoying infantry Command Sergeant Majors by growing our mustaches to the literal exact definition of regulation. **I was just standing behind the tank. The smarter way to do this is get one of the 7.62 NATO ammo cans, remove the lid (the hinge is open, so opening the lid and putting it to one side removes the whole assembly), stick the lid into the grill behind the exhaust while the tank is spooling up in the morning so it makes a shelf. Then fill the can with water, and place on the ammo can lid. After a few minutes the water will be comfortably warm thanks to the heat from the gas turbine, being transmitted through the metal sides of the ammo can. You may now shave in comfort at -4 degrees. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieme(ITA) Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the suggestions Panzer, as Always. The guy has been booted out. It's quite hard to find good pictures, and it's creepy too. Another variation: Edited February 22, 2015 by Kieme(ITA) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraft Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Do you plan on fiddling with the camo aswell? It looks a lot worse than the vanilla Ukr&Rus gear imho. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieme(ITA) Posted February 23, 2015 Author Share Posted February 23, 2015 We'll see, I'm not really into making new camos, it takes a lot of work and the result is not guaranteed. I'll try the usual weathering on existing camos, that's for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jammersix Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I made sure my dudes were okay with it when I renamed my tank just because at the end of the day, they're the one doing most of the work on it. Out of mild curiosity, speaking as a former AJE5, what did you do, sir, ask them? And assuming a yes, what do you think they did? Do you think they answered you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miller41 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Awesome is the only word to describe these, I have downloaded them all and the change is dramatic to say the least.

Kieme(ITA) Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) Thanks for your kind words people. I have taken a look at the US uniforms. I am one of those who don't particularly like the look of the new camouflage (which might be better in person), but there's nothing to do about it, like it or not is a great fit in game, very similar to the real one. We could mod the old '80s woodland one in, but it wouldn't be much of a sense wouldn't it? It looks bad sometimes due to the stretching effects that textures show on the soldier models when they have certain postures or do some movements. So I will try to apply some mud and dirt on the lower parts for now, just to make the uniforms a bit more used and dirty.

Kieme(ITA) Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 Kieme CMBS reworked USA uniforms This mod slightly changes US soldier uniforms, mainly by adding some weathering. I decided to go with not excessive weathering because the look of it would be quite horrible compared to the base colors and the camouflage, just a little to avoid the original "fresh new" effect. Changelog: -light desaturation to the base colors of uniforms, helmets, backpacks, camelbacks, large pouches, boots. -enhanced details -3 layers of dust, dirt, mud applied to the clothing.

Peter Panzer Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Kieme: Many thanks for your tireless work and generosity - your buildings are particularly magnificent. Regarding the RUS AFV's, I am thrilled to see a collaboration between yourself and BTR! It is also great to see someone leveraging the normal maps to greater effect as they apply to vehicles - well done. Will you be doing a weathering mini-mod of the “Common Gear” applied to vehicles? Presently, we have weathered vehicles with clean gear applied. This small mod could also extend to the crew served weapons mounted to vehicles: .50 HMG, TOW launcher, PKT etc.. Thanks again for all of your contributions - I have really been enjoying them! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieme(ITA) Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) Thanks Peter, I'll look into the common gear. The US gear was covered with the abrams (it's in that mod) because it was the first of the US family. I'll see what's what with the rest that slipped. As regarding the tank HMGs, some were tied with the single vehicles, some were not. Not sure what was going on there, but I also saw some troubles as few mods were not showing up properly... yeah I missed a file with HMGs for the US. I'll try to set it up Tomorrow, thanks for the reminder. As regarding the PKT, like the one on the mtlbu, I belive it must be modded toghether with infantry weapons. Another reason to make a "2nd hand weapons" mod. Edited February 24, 2015 by Kieme(ITA) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
