Maximus Posted April 18, 2001 Share Posted April 18, 2001 Gents, I have just whipped up a new set of Brit uniforms for the DFDR TC mod. I based this set off of Magua's '44 Tommies, so I hope Magua will be OK with this as I did give him credit in my readme. Basically all I did was to increase the brightness and contrast of the dark brown uniform ONLY by masking out the straps and equipment. Sorry I don't have a pic to show right now, but hopefully Clubfoot or MikeT will get it up pretty soon. Oh, did I mention that I already fired it on over to them? So look for it soon on their website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfamily33 Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 Maximus: Can you turn the sleeves up and give them some of Bermuda shorts? Maybe give their skin a real nice tan too. Am I obnoxious yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunnee Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 those uniforms are tight. . .was wondering if somebody could direct me to the desert fox mod site. . been dreaming of desert action ever since i got the game last summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfamily33 Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 Maximus: Fyi, you are also using my outdated, unhistorical (see that routed grip) Lee Enfield. A better version is available at Manx's place. Of course you'll have to tear that mod apart and find it as it's packaged for the ModManager and we all know what you think of the MM.

Thomm Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 This is a very nice mod!!!! Congratulations!! The trousers are especially nice!!! Regards, Thomm P.S.: What will we do without Photopoint (i.e. when they will start to charge in May)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Dorosh Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 That's funny; I sent them my British uniforms months ago. I like the colours of yours but - Why the helmet netting? There should be buttons on the front of the KD jackets, also. Are these supposed to be denim KD jackets or Aertex bush shirts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if you're referring to the uniforms at the DFDR site now, well umm, I thought they were way too bland. Just like English cooking, if you know what I mean.

I do like the colour of the web gear on your models. The beards just don't look right since most nations banned beards from combat soldiers (except British pioneers, German mountain troops, etc.) because, officially, it interfered with the fit of anti-gas equipment and the seal of the gas mask.

Like you cared!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Again you are confusing two mods with one. The face mods are something entirely different. Those have been on CMHQ since early last Fall. Go tell the author of that mod that his beards are banned. Anyway, if your uniforms are labeled as New British Uniforms with the zip file BritUniforms.zip then they are there. If not, then they haven't posted them yet. However, I have finally found a way to tan out the textures. I have done a desert Universal Carrier and the Duece and a Half.

Michael Dorosh Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 Yeah, yeah, don't roll your eyes at me missy! I realize you didn't do the faces, I'm just saying I hate 'em. Like you care about that, either! Thanks for the tip, I did download the uniforms and they are indeed mine. They must have forgotten the credit. Incidentally, I think I need a sig like Eurowarrior. I wonder what the largest graphic I could possibly use would be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubfoot Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 Micheal, Sorry for the mix-up. I've contacted our webmaster and you'll be credited for your uniforms asap. Maximus, Most new content additions are on hold until after SuperTed's Sidewalk Sale is complete. Then the alternate Brit uniforms will appear. And, not trying to be confrontational, but please refrain from posting news items about the future content of the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Dorosh Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 No problem, Clubfoot, I realize how busy y'all are. Glad to see you will be featuring some things at the sidewalk sale - I have some big news for said event myself. Should be a lot of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
