Body Armor Overhaul to ace3 NIJ Standard (Vanilla)

Description
---Provides realistic protection against human injury in the ace3 environment and various protective equipment.---
This MOD redefines the ability values of armor based on NIJ standards and aims to express damage more realistically.

Protection performance based on various types of ammunition

NIJ IIIA is a lightweight soft armor that provides effective protection primarily from handgun bullets, explosive fragments, and blast waves.

The NIJ III effectively blocks ammunition up to 7.62X51 NATO Ball.

The NIJ IV actually protects against the .30-06 M2 armor-piercing round, but since this ammunition does not exist in-game, it will instead provide some protection against the 7.62X54R 7N14 round from the RHSMOD.

All armor also provides NIJ III or NIJ IV protection for the character's chest only, and either no protection or NIJ IIIA protection for the abdomen (depending on whether the armor model extends to the abdomen).

Does this mod also affect the DLC and cDLCs such as WS, RF and EF?

@Reticuli
No, I don't know.

You heard of any mods that will allow the caliber value for ammo to influence existing Arma 3 body armor penetration like it does on vehicles and obstacles?

@Sam
This does not give any durability value to the bulletproof plate, so how many shots it can withstand depends on the damage settings of the ace. Also, 7.62mm can currently be stopped with NIJ III. (I forgot to modify the damage value of 5.56mm, so I will stop doing this as well...) Currently, it is not compatible with RHS, and the work is slow because it needs to be compared with the eastern GOST standard. It will be. I'm sorry

@Sir Cumsicion
It's probably not compatible with that mod. This is because even though they inherited the class name from Vanilla, they copied and pasted specs such as bulletproof performance! (Well, it's simply bad that this mod can't overwrite their mod, so Vanilla > My mod > Their mod.)
Sir Cumsicion 14 Dec, 2023 @ 10:40pm 
would this work with Aegis, Atlas, etc. since those mainly use retextured vanilla assets?

@Ben
Sorry, it's not supported yet, but we plan to release a compatibility patch for each mod eventually.
However, it is compatible with some popular mods, so please take a look at my other works as well.
