The biggest advantage of this will be universally compatible ammo and attachments, proper attention to uniform quality, realism and accuracy and of course not being required to download separate weapon packs or. I don't know if I'm going to port over my HMMWVs and other vehicles simply because I don't want to fight with ArmA3 porting them over and I already have a long list of stuff to do but we'll see.īecause of the community's wish to use higher quality weapons I've decided to source donations to build my own weapon pack. I'm not going to include the 80s units, however the gear will still be available for 80s missions. My mod will require Community Upgrade Project since this is the only weapons pack I know of that has 90% of the weapons I need. Some things to look forward to with the straight port is a wide selection of uniforms and gear from the 80s and 90s. Depending on how that goes, I will either decide to end public development and move on to other stuff or continue with the new direction I'd like to take the US Military Mod.

With that being said, the first phase of this project will be a straight port with some additions, with a release probably sometime in early fall. That means I would have to redo about 90% of my characters. Unfortunately, it's just about totally incompatible with the rest of ArmA3 as there is a lot of clipping issues. All the 3d meshes for the equipment, vests and uniforms are separate, so for the most part, it's relatively easy to port them over for the new equipment system.

How I originally modeled my characters for ArmA2 has it's advantages and disadvantages. So far the porting process has been very interesting to say the least. If you're not familiar with my ArmA 2 release, the US Military Mod is a high quality and accurate representation of United States military personnel from the late 1980s to the mid 1990s. I'm very excited to inform the ArmA community that for past few months I have been porting over my US Military Mod to ArmA3.
