Description
Whoah, MEC is here to kick some ass.
What's in the mod?
-Classic BF2 faction, somewhere tweaked for my own favor: Regular troops, Guard reserve units, Specops(Blackops too) and Airborne troops. NOTE - If you would play with CWR3-BAF, then airborne units will have Mk3 Para steel helmets instead of 6b47. That's soft dependency feature, choose what you like.
-MEC SF units.
-Lots of CUP vehicles retextured to resemble MEC ones.
-There are few uniforms there, some are not used right now, but feel free to use them in arsenal or equip your own units. Hope, I'll update and get some guys to wear it too.
-Guys do have randomized headgear and lot's of authentical facewear, including... well yeah beards.

Recommended mods:
Best to use with TOH Characters, so their faces are not really similar.

Planned:
-Uavs
-Add 2035 vehicles with new textures - partly done.
-Fully copy CSAT infantry tree.
-National Guard units??? Desert units??? - Guard Corps added. Desert SF units added.
-Potentially do a lightweight version with a2 assets without S&S, but should I? - Dependency swapped to CWR3.

Install and use at your own risk, I am not responsible for any problem you can encounter. Distriputed under APL-SA, so now monetization, no reuploads, all rights belong to their rightfull owners.

Credits:
BIS - for awesome opportunities.
Brian Hate Games - S&S and New Wave mod.
Justin - allowed standalone usage of his M53 superb helmets.
CUP Team - dependancy which is just necessary for mod like this.
CWR3 Team - for making possible to retexture S&S gear and uniform.
Rusty - his camo templates are just the best.

If this is still being followed or updated I also would like a INDEP version as well!

Hello, I love these units but I found 2 errors, one is in ik_mec_ss_retex and is trying to reference a "-" for a model in some of the guard units

and it looks like the M53 p3d's are trying trying to reference a path mentioning "sns_dutch\data\m53_co.paa".

You might be able to fix the M53 issue by just putting a copy of the texture in that folder. I'm not sure about the model. Any chance of a fix for these?

Could I trouble you for an Indep version of this faction? Since some of the old Battlefield scenarios if I recall used to pit Chinese and MEC troops against each other.

Even if they didn't, I'd really like to be able to have these guys as a 3rd side in an upcoming ArmA campaign I'm trying to do. The mod Sons of Babylon already offers MEC in Indep flavor, but they don't have as much variety because SoB doesn't use CUP.

Straight to my favorites.

@Fudge cake thanks for the feedback, it's probably rucksack, I will get it fixed

Nice mod slight issue I have found however. Loading a mission with any of the MEC Vehicles without S&S causing a bad vehicle error. I assume there is something funky in the classnames!

I know this mod is somewhat old, but I'd like you to know that the contact DLC is trying to steal your uniforms and say that they're from that mod. specifically the fatigues, both normal and desert.

it would be very cool adding SOKO HN-45M Gama 2 or any of its variants. i've been searching for that Helicopter, Surprisingly never found it.

RHS Version?

the MEC flag insignia patch appears small on some uniforms, could this be fixed?
