@Zefýr

@The Workshop Critic
you're welcome to make your own textures and have this addon as a requirement. because i do not own the models, i can't really give permission to distribute the models, same for some of the textures, although i did create a few new ones.
Critic 22 Feb, 2023 @ 9:43pm 
Ah sorry, delayed response but I meant texture files not models. My bad. Would I still have to contact the original authors to gain access? (Along with their permission to do so of course) Was wondering if re texturing was a thing.

(I just only want to add a flag patch on the front side of some of the vests is all)

@The Workshop Critic
not really. you would have to ask the original modelers.
Critic 5 Feb, 2023 @ 2:49pm 
Is it possible to get these models somehow?
chazbotic  [author] 23 Jan, 2023 @ 1:16pm 
@Pushistik
well, Cunico hasn't really been seen since 2018, and while jarr0d is still around i'm not sure the best method to see him other than his steam workshop page since armaholic shut down.
Pushistik 23 Jan, 2023 @ 1:11pm 
@chazbotic Thx for answer. And where I can contact them? Steam, Artstation, ARMA modding discord?
chazbotic  [author] 23 Jan, 2023 @ 12:53pm 
@Pushistik
the models contained here are the work of specific authors credited, like Cunico, or Jarrod, et c. you will need to ask them specifically for options to purchase the models.
Pushistik 23 Jan, 2023 @ 10:34am 
@chazbotic Hi, Where I can find/buy the same vest models for my projects? I tried to search in cgtrader but didnt find exactly same models.
chazbotic  [author] 19 Dec, 2022 @ 2:15pm 
@Sc0t
no worries man, take care and if you need some PC help send me a message or something and maybe i have spare parts or can help guide you through fixes.
Sc0t 19 Dec, 2022 @ 12:54pm 
Guys, my PC dead and I really don't have time to fix it and restore all files. Someday, sorry :(

unfortunately he did not, i haven't heard from him since that post so I assume he is quite busy or changed his mind. if i had the models i could regularize the texture mapping and change a few other things.
[JTFV] Selvo 18 Dec, 2022 @ 5:38am 
Oh and and a last quick question, i have read the comments, did scot send you the 3d-models? just out of couriousity
[JTFV] Selvo 18 Dec, 2022 @ 5:31am 
Thanks for the quick anwsers, i will propose this addon as complete to be added to our group modset. Sadly i cant accomplish what i was hoping for. Hopefully i can blah blah them into submission when we do our next modset-selection vote :D
chazbotic  [author] 18 Dec, 2022 @ 4:36am 
@[JTFV] Selvo
yes for some of them. i do not have the original p3d files to redefine them since i sort of inherited this mod and merged two defunct mods into this one with a few texture alternates. you can look at the configs for some of the vests to get the names that are possible to retexture.
[JTFV] Selvo 18 Dec, 2022 @ 3:56am 
@chazbotic: Are the Textures of the vests directly defined in the p3d. ?
[JTFV] Selvo 15 Dec, 2022 @ 3:32am 
@chazbotic Thanks man :)
chazbotic  [author] 14 Dec, 2022 @ 10:28pm 
@[JTFV] Selvo
i'm okay with that with credit, however be aware that if this addon is updated, yours may become out of date.
[JTFV] Selvo 14 Dec, 2022 @ 5:52pm 
Would it be okay for you if i took one of the vests, reskin it and reupload it to the internal mod pack of my community? Sadly im the only AK-User in my PMC so i dont want to bother everyone with a complete new mod
chazbotic  [author] 11 Nov, 2022 @ 7:08pm 
@Professional dumbass
the vests inherit from vanilla gear, and all vests have appropriate values for protection. the only vests without protection are the basic warbelt, which is a set of suspenders. this is true in both ACE Arsenal and BIS Virtual Arsenal.

what do you mean "there is no armor on the vests"?
Privateer Blues 11 Nov, 2022 @ 5:09pm 
Why is there no armor on the vests
chazbotic  [author] 23 Sep, 2022 @ 6:44pm 
@RxL3gEnD
i understand, it was a stylistic choice to have mixed mags for more visual interest. at the time the models were made it was more common to see on Wagner and other international AK-using PMC to have older mags and some newer mags as they recently entered the market and it was sometimes random what you would get when supplied.
RxL3gEnD 23 Sep, 2022 @ 10:32am 
The magazine models on the 5.45 vests should be all orange or black bakelite mags, and the mags on the 7.62 vests should be all the steel 30rd AKM mags or AK-103 mags. That's what would get this mod to 5 stars, because the mag styles you guys picked for the vests don't make a a whole lot of sense, and also no normal operator would have all different types and colors of mags like that. Changing the magazines to the correct/better models would make this mod S tier
AvAZorD 22 Jun, 2022 @ 11:07am 
Alright thank you, and also i just meant it in simple terms, from experience
chazbotic  [author] 21 Jun, 2022 @ 2:35pm 
@AvAZorD
that's not quite how it works re: the ACE damage handler, but these vests are based on vanilla NATO vests for their protection values and shouldn't have any issues with that situation.
AvAZorD 21 Jun, 2022 @ 4:44am 
No, i mean are they compatible with ace ballistics. sometimes modded gear can make a unit hard to kill as the vest/helmet absorb the bullets like sponges.
chazbotic  [author] 21 Jun, 2022 @ 3:32am 
@AvAZorD
if you mean if they're categorized for ACE Arsenal, then yes, they will display and sort properly.
AvAZorD 21 Jun, 2022 @ 3:26am 
Are these ace compatible ?
chazbotic  [author] 11 Jun, 2022 @ 10:55am 
@Sc0t
coolio!
Sc0t 11 Jun, 2022 @ 12:55am 
Hey, I'll give you models later. On a business trip now
chazbotic  [author] 19 May, 2022 @ 4:56pm 
@Verllero
i cannot alter the model because i do not have the unbinarized model files, so unfortunately i cannot make those changes.
Verllero 19 May, 2022 @ 4:44pm 
I`m talking about in the armor vests.:steamthumbsup:
Verllero 19 May, 2022 @ 4:37pm 
Yes, add in the tactical belt in both sides the model of the VOG (GL ammo) in the right and the left side. As you can see there are clips / magazines in the tactical belt, replace those objects with VOG GL ammo in both sides, but, just in the tactical belt (waist).
chazbotic  [author] 19 May, 2022 @ 4:16pm 
@Verllero
i'm not sure if i understand - do you mean an HSGI Warbelt for grenadiers? or the tactec vest belt option? for grenadiers to place more VOG grenades on the belt?
Verllero 19 May, 2022 @ 3:50pm 
Hi @chazbotic. Can you please add an "granadier" version with VOG ammo in both sides of the tactical belt?. Regards!:lunar2019coolpig:

Legend Sir! Thanks :steamthumbsup:
chazbotic  [author] 18 May, 2022 @ 5:54am 
@-VT-
i compared the older and newer versions and found the mistake in the texturing for the warbelt. although this doesn't fix the worldModel problem, it should appear properly now when worn.
-VT- 18 May, 2022 @ 12:26am 
Sorry to be a punish, but they are not even listed in the editor

Ok, I understand what you mean about the world models. Any chance you still have version 1.76 ?
-VT- 17 May, 2022 @ 11:50pm 
-VT- 16 May, 2022 @ 10:20pm 
Ok, thanks for the response. Keep up the great work!
chazbotic  [author] 14 May, 2022 @ 10:20pm 
@-VT-
that'll happen to the world model, but the character model, when worn, is normal. the issue is warbelts were not intended to have a world model at all and so have some mapping problems i cannot fix without the original p3d file.
-VT- 14 May, 2022 @ 7:57pm 
Anyone else have texture issues with the warbelts? Texture for the PKM box's is all a light sand colour and the pouches and magazines for the AK ones appear to be pointing to the wrong textures
