yo what if firewill f16 retextures

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?

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

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?

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.

I was thinking maybe you can add more liveries to his models like the SU-24, SU-27B, SU-30MKI etc.

I'm unlikely to attempt retexturing Pook's models, if that's what you're asking. ...But more likely I'm misinterpreting what you're asking - could you elaborate? ...Are there specific vehicles you're referring to?

Did you have any plans to add Pook's soviet air force or Kazakh Air Force liveries?

Thanks! The update that will add these new skins will be any day now.

Those harriers look great been hoping for those skins to pop up for a long time, great work as always!

Gotcha, glad to hear it's doable with Gimp as that's what I use, albeit there's a lot to the program I've yet to mess with at all, including paths lol.
Time to do some learning I suppose, thanks for the response!

Thanks! Hex camo on the Mig-29 took forever :)

It's an iterative process. I set up a coloured/numbered grid as a "background" (search google images for "UV map grid"), and then I start to paint the camo blotches (each camo colour has its own layer) where I think they should go, check them in-game and estimate from the grid how far I need to adjust the blotches to make them align from hull to wings. I do this work in GIMP and use its Paths tool to define the perimeters of blotches - it's easy to stretch them around by their handles as I iterate towards alignment. Once blotches are aligned the "background" colour of the camo replaces the UV map grid.

When possible I use original camos as a guide - if I can identify where a blotch perimeter crosses a wing-to-hull boundary I'll try to make use of that point.

Heyo, you do some awesome texture work, was just wondering how you keep the different textures lined up to work together; like on the MiG-29, how do you go about lining up the texture from the hull to the wings, if that makes sense?

Much appreciated

Sure, no worries, just giving ideas.

Gonzo-GT - I'll include those in my to-do list. Keep in mind that my focus tends to be on my cDLC retexture mods, where my to-do lists have exploded this year. So I can't promise a timeline for stuff over here.

Lastly, RHS tanks such as T-80 with no modern decals would be awesome.

Mi-24 for GM factions if possible would be good for people that don't own/want to use CSLA.

Soviet skin Mig-29 would be appreciated (white or camo).

Much appreciated

It's on my to-do list now, as "Add RHSUSAF's CH-53 to SOG MACV"

I got what you mean and have GM cDLC, but it will require all the players to have both DLCs, which significantly decreases mission online. CH-53 is in RHSUSAF. Thank you for your answer.

Do you have the GM cDLC? I've retextured their CH-53 and added it to SOG. Having done that, retexturing a CH-53 from elsewhere (does CUP have one? ...I'm not too familiar) will be a low priority for me until I run out of the interesting (to me) things I'm doing in my other mods.

Would be nice to see CH-53 Vietnam retexture

I hate that RHS is the only mod with a MiG-29 anywhere. These skins look good. :c

I do reskin vanilla vehicles in my D2X mod: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/comments/2660974509
I've added the Hunter for WS's Ion faction to my D2X to-do list. I can't promise an ETA, but I will say that it will be an easy thing to do, since I have texture templates and config files for it already.

"Looking into" the CUP Datsun is added to my DVR to-do list. To be clear, I'm not committing to retexture it, just to investigate the possibility. See my "Roadmap" entry on the discussions tab, and bear in mind that I've already added a lot of LSVs and technicals to Ion in my D2X mod, thus CUP's Datsun is a low priority for me, regardless of how it might score in relation to my roadmap criteria.

(Civvi) Cup_C_Datsun_4seat and I don't think you do reskins for vanilla vehicles but a black/ ion reskin for B_MRAP_01_F / the (Nato) Hunter car would be amazing, pretty please.

I’ll certainly keep it in mind. Are there specific vehicles you have in mind?

Any possibility of a black or Ion PMC reskin for vehicles? Thanks for the work you've done so far

Dunno yet. See my “Roadmap” explanation in the Discussions tab; LAV-25 might be a similar situation to HMMWV. I haven’t looked into it in detail yet though.

Any chance of getting a LAV-25A3 in here?

Thanks. Take it easy.

Eventually, yes.

Alright. What about RHS Mi-24D for GM?

I have it on my to do list for GM already, but CWR3 isn’t a mod I’m incorporating as a “companion” In the foreseeable future. The Tornado has really janky textures - Firewill even states that it’s a work in progress. Therefore I’m reluctant to sink my own effort into templates while there so much less dubious stuff on my to-do list.

Firewill Project Tornado for GM West Germany faction and CWR3 BAF?

cool cheers

I believe it's Armed Forces of the Midland Coalition. A fictional faction added by the CSLA devs.

Which country is the AFMC?

Sure, np. Thanks for listening.

Gonzo-GT - My to-do list now has a reminder to look into these. However, it will be a while before I get around to it.

BTW Denmark also used F16 in the Cold War and CWR3 has a F16, it'd be great to see it reskinned for GM Denmark faction.

Hi, dmorchard, I'd like to make a request. I made some time ago a few mods adding aircraft from Pook Soviet Airforce mod to CWR3 soviet army faction and GM warsaw pact factions. But I don't have any fighter plane to add to GM West Germany faction. CWR3 has a F4 phantom, as SOG PF does, but I don't have SOG PF and it weights a lot. I love cold war mods and stuff. Could make a CWR3 F4 phantom West Germany skin? Thanks in advance!

I did not know that! I'll have to take a look.

Do you have any plans to retexture aircraft from the CLV mod for CDLC factions? It comes with a few aircraft which would fit well, such as the F-5 Tiger, A-4 Skyhawk, and Mirage III
