Falaise Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 (edited) The kepi of the game is a foreign legion kepi !! The most common for the game is that of tirailleur whether he is Algerian RTA or Moroccan RTM with the blue sky "bandeau" I did neither the crescent nor the star Sherifian to be versatile !!! The helmets of the North African troops were partly color mustard. the factory helmet had a khaki color at the beginning of the war however the liberation army repainted its helmets in dark green and a part of the manufacturing had an aluminum crest and the paints peeled finally I put leather jugulars on the tanker helmet Edited December 2, 2019 by Falaise 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerKommissar Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 The jugular straps look great! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Well done on the tanker helmet add ons ("jugulars??")! The kepi also looks great. Maybe weather it a bit? Looks like it just came from the factory and someone definitely wants this guy to get killed by a sniper.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erwin Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Now if you can get a Gauloise dangling from his lip, it would be perfect. https://medium.com/@IRahmanJones/french-smoking-cigarette-law-gainsbourg-bardot-cool-f385dbf32597 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erwin Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Can one have only the most senior officers have the colorful kepi (while the Lts have the sand cover)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not possible, there's only one kepi texture, so you can't make it vary between different officer ranks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Can't you call the sand one for example .... kepi-officer-jr And the sky blue one .. kepi-officer-sr I know some of the uniform mods work in that way, although in this case it might be more difficult. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, the French aren't set up that way this time around. Not sure why. Things are really different with this release. For example, some of the French skins (faces) like the toque-wearing winter ones are tied in with the US toque wearers as they are named as if they are the US ones, but have a [france] tag added at the end. I assume the officers are somehow tied in as well through the mdr/mds files???? Anyway, doesn't seem doable, Ollie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all depends on how BF made them in the game files. And in this case there's only one: smod_french_hat-kepi I don't know if it's tied to it, but US uniforms do not have this level of detail as well. It also seems technically impossible to make officers and such have caucasian skins, or enlisted to speak arabic due to how the game is built. It would have been interesting if BF had worked on these details more, but at this rate I'd rather wait for CMx3 so they can get all of this stuff in order and make us modders benefit.

Warts 'n' all Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Thanks to both of you for explaining. I'm a bit of a noddle head when it comes to things like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falaise Posted December 4, 2019 Author Share Posted December 4, 2019 whatever happens, the kepi is no longer worn in combat since 1915 and the appearance of the first French helmet In Italy, apart from the ceremonies where the colors of the tradition must be visible, the kepi with kepi covers is the rule and is worn only at the back of the front line. In italy the french does not wear a distinctive insignia in combat although there is a specific badge for the CEF (French Expeditionary Corps) there:US helmet worn with the imperial flag from 1804 to 1812 that can also be seen on vehicles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falaise Posted December 6, 2019 Author Share Posted December 6, 2019 In Italy the CEF depends on the delivery of American equipment under the law loan lease To avoid the premature wear of woolen uniforms, the HBT suit and other denim outfits are widely used both in winter over woolen garments and in summer. HBT suit faded at different levels shirt and pants denim mix of different clothes rather typical 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
