DVR, DMOrchard's Vehicle Retexture mod

Description
What this mod does...
...It retextures and/or reconfigures vehicles from popular community mods (the "sources"), adding them to various existing factions from the base game, DLCs, cDLCs and other mods (the "destinations").

You might be wondering...
  • ...do I need to subscribe and load all those "source" mods? Each one is optional. DVR has no "hard dependencies". It only adds modded content based on the combination of "sources" and "destinations" you launch Arma with. Collectively I've been calling these "soft dependencies". See the lists below, deeper explanations in the Discussions tab, and refer to the change notes.
  • ...how does it do this? It uses the same config mechanism, the #if __has_include() statement, as my prior crossover mods (see links below).

Content at initial release and recent updates...
  • Added [Firewill's AV8B Harrier] to [A3] AAF, [CSLA] AFMC & [DCX] 'The West' (RAF woodland version), with garage-accessible textures
  • Added basic CH47 Chinook to [CSLA] AFMC & US85 from [RHS], [CUP] or [UnsungRedux]; source hierarchy is [RHS] > [CUP] > [UnsungRedux]
  • Added [CUP] MH47E Chinook to [CSLA] US85
  • Added [UnsungRedux] CH47 Chinook medevac to [CSLA] AFMC & US85
  • Added [UnsungRedux] ACH47A "Guns-a-Go-Go" to [CSLA] US85 despite being anachronistic
  • Added MIG29 from [RHS] to [A3] CSAT, [APEX] CSAT-Pacific, [WS] SFIA, [CSLA] CSLA*, [GM] E.Germany* & Poland* factions (*inspired by Thunderstreak's LEN - Cold War Aircraft mod)
  • Added RHS-based jet pilots to factions as needed
    ...as of Jun 24, 2024...
  • Added CH47 from [RHS], [CUP] or [UnsungRedux] to [WS] UNA and various NATO factions ("sand", "arid" & "olive" skins)
  • Added SU25 from [RHS], [CUP] and [Firewill's SU25SM3] to [WS] SFIA, [CSLA] CSLA, [A3] CSAT and [APEX] CSAT-Pacific
  • Added SU25 from [RHS], [CUP] and [Firewill] to the UAF Vehicles Pack & DMOrchard's Soviet Armed Forces mods
  • Added MIG29 from [RHS] to the UAF Vehicles Pack & DMOrchard's Soviet Armed Forces mods
  • Added AV8B from [Firewill] to DMOrchard's Cold War Nato mod & generic 'The West' faction (as a stand-in for UK's RAF FGR.3 & RNFAA FRS.1)
  • Added OV10 from [UnsungRedux] to AAF and [GM] West Germany.

Upcoming content...
  • To be determined

Current list of "soft dependency" source mods...

List of "soft dependency" destinations...
...As this mod develops, I'll run out of space listing them here. Please refer to the change notes, or see the "soft dependencies" lists for my crossover mods if you want to gauge the direction I'm headed.

My current mods, in active development...

Open to requests and feedback... within reason...
  • Got a suggestion? Fire away! If I like it, I'll slot it into my to-do list.
  • Is my mod throwing an error? If you provide the details, I'll try to fix it. Please use the "Errors" discussion.

fowler.joshuadouglas - I haven't dug-in to any ground vehicles from CUP yet, but I've made a note to look at medical decals when I do get to it. No ETA to report though.

Potts2023 - I've added it to my to-do list, but I've got no ETA for you.

Can you do the CUP SU-34 for AAF?
fowler.joshuadouglas 15 Feb @ 5:08am 
Is there any chance you could add an RHS style medical skin for CUP's US medical vehicles so that there's the red cross for them instead of the diamond
dmorchard  [author] 24 Dec, 2024 @ 7:51am 
Those are on my to-do list, but I have less time for modding than I'd like - to the point that I can't even provide an ETA for these vehicles.

Out of curiosty will you be adding RHS vehicles like the BMP-2s or BMDs to your soviet factions and other CDLC factions?
dmorchard  [author] 31 Jul, 2024 @ 1:00pm 
I won't rule those out, but I also can't make any promises. My to-do list across various mods is already impossibly large :)

What are the odds of adding PRACS and JSDF mod vehicles to this? They have some pretty high profile vehicles that aren't really represented in other mods. The JSDF mod just added a Sea King and PRACS released the retention templates for their aircraft, including the P-3 Orion.

Pook’s assets diverge enough from the Arma3 standard that my current retexturing workflow falls flat. Unsung, CUP, RHS, and Firewill all have some assets that are like this to one degree or another. I prefer to focus where I can be most effective. This is not to say “never”, but definitely not in the near future.
