There was a 101st airborne pack released just before b2.0 (I think it was 2.0, I know it was just before a major beta release) by Frightm@re. It was one of the best custom sets around, but it's success was short lived because with the new beta came new animations, and Frightm@re departed before ever updating them.

I'd like to get ahold of these models, if only for nostolgias sake, so if anybody still has these models in their libraries, or knows where or from whom I could get them, I would be deeply indebted to them.

uh were these based on the band of brothers uniforms and they were a dark brownish with shades of lighter brown? cause if thats the one, then i wubbed it

bump

i think i remember these
unfortunatly i dont have them:o

No, these were I think the second paratrooper set ever made, even before there were actual paratroopers in the game. They had details like dogtags, grenades, and cigarettes. I know they were completely original textures, and they might have even been original models.

Here's a picture of the pack I'm looking for, somebody must have these guys on an old cd full of 1.3 custom models or sitting on their hard drive.

now those i dont remeber ;o

Never seen em' before but those are incredible :)

those are really nice. hmm..

I have them somewhere, They were my favorite set. Trying to find them.

Couldn't find them, Someone has gotta have them

i don't have them on my backup CDs either.

i put in a search for frightmare on google :P and found a HL mod with a dude named frightmare making some of the models for that mod. maybe just maybe its the same frightmare
but theres only one way to find out:D one of you fellers can try and contact him and see if he still has teh models:cool:
oh heres the google results

http://216.239.57.104/search?q=cache:1l4axURDkQIJ:www.easyjo.com/~hazard/models.htm+frightmare+model&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

I saw that mod page too, I also found an old spanish dod fansite with that pic I showed, and a non-working link to the download. Anything on the web about Frigntm@re is at least a year old, and I've yet to find any contact information.

Here's the site where I found info about the set, if any spanish speakers could glean some info maybe it will help. You have to go about two thirds of the way down to find the right post, or you could just search the page for last airborne: http://dod.metropoliglobal.com/

Perhaps somebody that worked with him or knew him could ask him if he still has the models?

Who's the man? EH?

All I ask is that if you update them for 1.0, Let me know so I can get them.

Thanks a lot for the help, GeineD. I'll definately be working on getting these guys into the game, even if the increasing quality of custom models has dulled their splendor a bit.

On a completely unrelated note, what's the deal with your sig? Are you somehow connected to the plight of the American Natives?

One request I might add -- keep the cigarette in one of the Airborne model's mouths. It looks awesome.

I am almost full blooded native, And the fact that the government has yet to remove jackson from the 20$ bill is idiotic, So I put that there because a lot of people don't know to much about him and that hopefully sparks there intrest into researching it.


No problem, I'm glad your updating them.

Really what Band are you from...

I am a Mohawk from the Iroquois 5 nations...

Im not all up on Native American history, please PM me and tell what Jackson did...

Click Me (http://www.iwchildren.org/murderer.htm)

i never knew about that -GeineD-:eek:

on a lighter note i was bored so i decided to make dogtags inspired by these models:cool:

*edit* the dogtags on these models were something like 900 polys :eek: now thats just way too many polys for such a small detail. *edit*

I learned about Andrew Jackson in my history class recently (before summer broke)....he seemed like a mad, belligerent war lover, and was known for his vicious acts against the Native Americans and (not completely sure about this) the Mexicans in The Mexican war...

You know, never quite understood why he exactly was on the 20 dollar bill, he wasn't a good president, he was just a norm one with the battle records around his belly , just like most of the presidents in the past:)
*Edit- Yeah, also before the Trail of Tears that made the Native Americans flee and immigrate to the other areas of the country, there were blankets purposefully rigged with germs and bacterias... resulting in diseased deaths and many sick Native Americans....that's some sick sh*t, now i think imma burn every goddamn 20 dollar bills i see!!:D

i was so inspired after seeing the results of my dogtag lol :D that i made this high poly :rolleyes: plate by request for TrouT

LMAO
nice work, too bad it has no work in dod though :(


btw
geined, do you have that Band Of Brothers Set for 1.3b that i described in the 2nd post? if you have it, pls post a link to it. :D

omg i havent seen those models in years. i remember when the last airborne set was in porduction, but i lost track of it, and never found out if it was released or not. on top of that the DOD underground forums went stale and, like nobody posted there anymore... so several works i liked, i never got. some of vegeta the butchers work and frightmares.

and on a side note, hope i can help with the project trig. :)

yeah im bored:p

You're missing the oval piece that snaps onto one of the metal beads so that it stays together. The connector piece.

This thing:

yeah i could make that...
but this is probably never going to be used for anything in dod :P i guess its just something to do to help me get better at modelling:cool:

Weren't the rubber silencers post WWII?

Sorry to bump this old thread but I would like these too. If any one has these please contact me. My AIM is JuD4s6. The link here doesn't work.

And please could you send them to ken.payne@sympatico.ca . I would love to take a look at them. The link for the originals is not working or the pic. And if someones bored or really wants to do me a favour, could you please convert the stock 1,3 tommy and put the version 1 hands and arms on it. Thanks a bunch.
