drone backpacks are not configured with faction variants

I can't see CSAT, AAF and LDF Parade cap

for 3CB Factions please

oka thanks mudstone, broadway - out

I don't know, not the scope of this mod. This just patches stuff to work with ACEAX.

how can i have more cosmetics when i play campaign east wind..

I finally have a CUP patch available ! Now that it's in a functioning state. Sorry for the wait.

I've considered it. Issue is that currently I've been lacking motivation and am attending college again on top of having additional responsibilities, so I haven't sat down to work on patches for a while. Each CDLC shouldn't be too much work, but still.

I should note that there IS a patch for Spearhead available.

i know its a huge undertaking to get these out but it would be great to chip away at some of the CDLC stuff i love them so much but the arsonal is just cluttered af

I might get to it once I finally finish my CUP patch. I was away in the woods for a week so I need to get back into the groove of things.

make Multi-play Uniforms ver. plszzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

this mod is one of the best mods

awesome, thank you

I've actually been slowly plugging away at a CUP patch for a few days now. I am currently working on weapons but it shall take me some time assuming I keep my motivation.

In the meantime, check out these patches covering CUP faction uniforms and CUP BDUs .

Would it be possible for you to make a version for CUP?

This works completely fine clientside.

Is this client side or server side?

Hiya, I've been going through trying to find a decent solution for the "Faction Lock" issue and I think I've found it, in the sample implementation thing on ACEAX's Github, it says that the factions value is entirely optional, so you should be able to fix it on your end by not including it? Hope this helps/I've got the right end of the stick here

This is how the line reads for clarity:
"faction[] = {"BLU_F", "BLU_T_F", "BLU_W_F"}; // shows this value only for selected factions, identified by their A3 code (optional)"

Not at the moment. I'm taking a break from ACEAX for now, especially since my personal life has been a bit hectic as of late. I am interested in doing it just cuz I'm a bit annoyed by the other offerings not covering everything or sorting things in a way I'm not personally pleased by.

ACEAX doesn't supports units or vehicles and I'm not sure how it would. That's beyond my ability to implement anyhow. I just make patches.

In the meantime, there are patches for CUP BDUs and faction uniforms . Sadly that's all. No weapons, headgear, facewear, etc.

any plan to make one for CUP? also for not just guns but also units, and vehicles?

Hi, just checked and confirmed VR suits are also side-locked, therefore your theory is highly likely correct...I'll see if I can send a feedback their way, thanks!

Hrm. I think that might actually be part of the base ACE Arsenal Extended mod. I don't know exactly the mod might restrict options based on what faction you are when you include factions as a value.

Just to be sure, did you also check stuff like VR suits, wetsuits, and pilot outfits? They should have CSAT variants as well as AAF/LDF variants. If all faction variants are available then that'd disprove my prior theory.

Thanks for taking a look. By with a NATO character in Eden editor and access ACE arsenal:
every other uniform was accessible, except for Ghillie and Full Ghillie, which I can only see "NATO" in the Faction selection; vice versa for a CSAT character unable to access NATO ghillie suits.

Further in East Wind campaign, Within Reach, I start out with CSAT fatigue and tried to access ghillie suit, but found that the Faction selection to be completely empty, and was able to only access the MTP and Tropic NATO versions of ghillie and full ghillie.

Tested with ACE and my own mod (to allow arsenal access anywhere), issue still occurs...Im not sure if it is caused by my own mods, but I don't think I have touched ghillie suit themselves...

Hrm, that's odd. I'm not sure how you're accessing standard CSAT uniforms while ghillies aren't available especially since they should be separate items. Could you elaborate on what uniforms you have access to and where this is occurring?

Hi, noticed that as BLUFOR I cannot select CSAT Ghillie Suit or Full Ghillie despite the fact that I can wear CSAT uniforms as BLUFOR alright...is that intended?

oh wow thats super useful, thanks mudstone!

I don't recall there being any mods that do that. I've tested doing so before with the right-hand side and it didn't work. I do agree that it would be very helpful though.

It might be worth opening a issue regarding it on the ACEAX GitHub [github.com]

If you do want help with looking for ACE medical items and tools though, I suggest Improved Ace Arsenal Category . It adds new and customizable tabs for medical items (self-explanatory), survival items (food and drink), and for tools (entrenching tools, toolkits, defusing kits, etc.).

ah, alright thanks for the explanation!
you dont happen to know if theres any ACEAX mod that groups stuff on the right side too?
for example having "Blood bag" listed once and then fold out to show reveal the options "250, 500, 1000"?

maybe that isnt supported in aceax as the stuff on the right side functions different from left in that you take multiples of those to put inside the other stuff?

just feels like a nightmare when you pick a 5.56 weapon and try to pick the rounds you want from a list of 2 billion magazines. would be neato if there was a mod to categorize that side and have collapsing categories. like "AP bullets" "Tracer bullets" "Ball bullets" etc. Or one for "ACE Medical" that you could open/close to reveal the rest.

but thats probably not within scope of aceax.

I have very intentionally not grouped together particular weapons.

For example, I have not grouped together the KH2002/Katiba variants because none of them differ through camouflage or other superficial ways. Instead they differ in being carbine, underslung grenade launcher, and standard rifle variants.

I don't group them together because I don't want to obscure significant mechanical variations for people skimming over the list they have available. This same principle applies to other families of gun with mechanical variations like the MX series and QBZ-95-1/CAR-95 series

You do remind me though that I should probably group together the different optic variants of the ADR-97/P90 to maintain consistency with my other patch.

Doesnt seem to group katiba together properly, and a few other things. overall its very nice though

This doesn't support Aegis. While it does still consolidate items when used with Aegis, it will only do so with the ones by Bohemia Interactive. I can support Aegis at a later date though.

works with aegis?

Alright, I fixed the signature files. That's another thing I gotta remember to update in the future. Thanks for the reminder!

When I start the current game, the error message 'Test Failed' appears in this Mod and RHS version, and enter the dedicated server, the key file is incorrect and cannot access it. I think you didn't update the bisign files, can you fix it?

And both of my current mods should be signed now. I actually already did all the set-up in order to sign my mods and just neglected to put the keys in them. Thanks for telling me about all this!

this video is how to add a key file. Anyway, thank you for your quick answer.

I'll look into it. Apologies for the inconvenience. I'm a novice when it comes to modding so I hadn't considered it.

There is no key file for this Mod and RHS version that you uploaded, so it is impossible to add it on a dedicated server. Can you add these mods' key file?

@Dutch
And now my patch for RHS is out! It doesn't cover all the weapons (nor binos) yet but I plan on doing that soon.
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2944314446

If you need help, I can gladly provide it.

No worries you're already a god send with all that you've released! If one isn't done by someone soon i may have to learn myself

Frankly I'm unlikely to do it anytime soon, especially with my currently existing backlog and since I don't use VSM AIO. My current priorities are admittedly selfish and are thus focused on modpacks /CDLC the groups I play with use.

However, I could help teach people how to create their own patches manually. I lurk on the official ARMA server and am reachable through there. Name is the same.

Awesome! Once you finish RHS and 3CB factions if you're still up for more please could you do VSM AIO?

best mod for arma 3 vanilla

Outstanding!

Not currently, but I do plan on supporting it in some time in the future. Current priority is finishing my RHS patch and then starting work on 3CB Factions for my own unit.

Are you also working on a compat for western Sahara?

My man, thank you for the great work! I tried to do these things myself but just couldn't get the tool to work more than once. Thanks again.

I'm actually already working on an RHS patch. You can see my progress on my linked GitHub page. I hope to have it ready in a few days. Just need to cover headgear and weapons at this point.

Godsend.
Any chance you're able to make it happen for the RHS mods? Now that'd be awesome on top of this.
