i have finally found something to do with these models! (submodels holding me back on new axis pack damnit :mad: )

Ok, i made a reskin of these way back when... and i wanted to make a V2 of them for 1.0.

i also figured it would be great to have 82nd scince 101st tends to get all the spot-light.

im sure only a handfull of you remember mine, you probobly remember the upgrade devin did of mine, with all the equipment and what not.

but thats beside the point :p

i am going to use some of the new default stuff, like the new heads, and helmets. wich i will edit to look more paratroopish (I.E. ill make the faces dirty, with the smudges on the cheeks and what not) i was also thinking of just totally re-skinning the uniform, scince it could just use one anyway. and the arm patches have been remeshed for higher detail (thx dev)

heres a pic of what ive got so far:
( arm patches have NOT been skinned yet, nor any other part i said i was gonna skin. the uniform is my original 82nd skin)

Wow. I dont remember your old 82nd skin. Looks great.

shameless bump

Looks good man :) I'm just glad to see other divisions then the 101.

progress (got the patch complete, just need to recolor the arm to green)

Very nice, high poly faces :D Exactly what I wanted with the new para skins.

Ok I'd be honored if you did this man, make them the 508th PIR heres the symbol for them

(I think this is the re enacting group I'm gonna join thats why I desire it so much)

Also you should sharpen up the uniform a little, that last pic makes it look a little blurry, like near the bottom pocket

Excellent Work Man!

that's waaaaaaaaay better than the default para's. :)

maybe recolor their uniforms a bit, like what captn higgins did with his 3rd ID para reskins..don't u think? GJ MAN!

that awesome project that was being worked on by Devin and me, has been stopped dead in its tracks.

you can thank submodeling for that one.

and also, i will finish these, but i cant release this until they fix the compiler... it just wont compile them for some reason.. :(

heres an update

how do you like this corporal rossi? :) i really like it my self :D

(reskinned the helmet, ill ad scratches and wear soon, but for now, the logo)

and heres another pic

http://www.dodstudios.net/uploads/uploads/new82nds6.jpg

Those look simply amazing. I can't wait for a release.

Looks great, the detail looks a little too big (on the helmet, i mean the decal i think) but it could be the pic, and if need be I could always just fix it up on my own if its a personal thing. Great work man!

I'm gonna have to take those models from you and use them on my 82nd set. Love the new heads!

i cant wait :)

hehheh... yeah

how far have you gotten with your 82nd skins? mabey this could be a joint effort?

your skins/ my model hack-jobbing, skin editing

Great Work as Usual Con. I feel a tear coming on. We will always remember the [82nd] of 3.1.

I will frequently check for updates.

Russ, my 82nd skins are pretty much done. Don't think there's anything left to do on them.

sexy looking models

looking great, keep it up!

OMG i love those like fat kids love cake!

I dont think it been stopped dead in its tracks. Maybe I can find a way.

bump

woha cons. i loved your german packs and im gonna fell in love with thode ****ing good paras espacially teh textur are great

gj and release em soon:D

conscript, i love THEM!!!

update:

i like these boots, and i hope you do to (http://www.dodstudios.net/uploads/uploads/boototssttst.jpg)

and heres the other helmet decal ill be including, along with the foot-wing thingie. also added some hanging chin straps. (http://www.dodstudios.net/uploads/uploads/helmeteehelmeteh.jpg)

ive only got a few more things to do here, ill be done soon. i also hear the new compiler is coming out today, or so. so the wait wont be that long.

also gotta do some testing, to see if there is anyhting wrong before i release.

looks great. i've never been a fan of buckle boots, i prefer the corcorans, but the chinstraps are a nice touch.

Dude, you should be working at Valve...for DOD, of course, not that other mod.

netted helmet

this damn thing was so unbelivably hard to make. still got a few more things to do with it... =\ (http://www.dodstudios.net/uploads/uploads/netnetnet.jpg)

Your not online, so can you do me a favor and not delte your psd for that netter helmet. If/when I use it, I would like to see it without the logo, or maybe with a different logo.

Its a pain is the ass to ahve to cut that sort of stuff out.

I'm still waiting for a 17th Airborne player model. Go to a local surplus store, the majority of the airborne equipment would be from the 17th.

great job m8 as usuall

I CAN'T WAIT! HURRY UP! lol

omg i cant wait eather. but the compiler is broken!!! :(

thats good and bad at the same time

bad= cuz you wont get them any sooner

good= i can put more work into them, and make them look better

patience is a virtue, and so is making a compiler that works.

Can I help test then? I'm too jumpy for them.

Great job man, will definitey use when released!

Ouch I bumped into something :cool:

Not a fan of helmet netting, but it still looks great.

I think I'm really drunk since Im bumping into everything

hello again, the new compiler is out and im just about ready to release.

but i have one question to ask of the community. im thinking imma ditch the green uniform and go with the dark chocolate brown BOBish color. could be nice. do u all want that, or should i just do a green recolor & release?

ill have some more pics soon too

Do both, lol.

if it wouldn't be hard, I'd like to see both. :)

Russ, you can use my 82nd skins and do your own bob style brown ones. Would cut down on the work for you. :D

Bring back the Corcoran jump boots!

im having some trouble compiling these things.i dont know what the hell is going on, and ive tried everythign. and yes this is the new compiler. and WTF do those two dots mean?!?!?

what the hell is going on here (http://www.dodstudios.net/uploads/uploads/wtfomgstudiosux.jpg)

What are they cut out!?

ok fine they stay, i just thought you guys would have liked some higer polygon ones. :)

but i cannot compile them unless someoen helps me with this little dillema :confused:

That's a pretty standard placeholder for a long string of directories.
It would kinda be like from New Folder\ whatever is between here and \us\para... etc

Like if the directory structure was:

c:\new folder\a\b\c\d\e\f\g\h\i\Hats\body.smd

It would put:

c:\new folder\a\..\Hats\body.smd

To conserve space.

To fix your problem though, chances are your .qc is pointing to the wrong file, or a file that's not there.

Check where your .smd is, check where it says it is in the .qc, and make them match up if need be.

also, I thought to recompile a model there couldnt be any spaces in the names of the folders ie... My Documents....I keep all my models and such in a folder I named C:/DecompiledModels

Problem is fixed (thx dev) and a new pic....

Pic (http://www.dodstudios.net/uploads/uploads/82ndsfullyplayable.jpg)

wearing dark brown color i did

they are not COMPLETELY finished. i have some minor things to work out. like some of the face textures, and some model things i gotta work out before i release. (multiple releases)

i also did a few thigns like make better scrim, and add some nice equipment.

Can u also make 101 with dark green uniform? that'd be great.

*tips hat*
No problemo.

Hey that helmet looks a little wierd man, just a little mis shapen, other than that very very nice.

That really looks great Russ, I can't wait to see that guy in-game.

Everything looks great! The only thing I'd like to see changed is the netting on the helmet, its looks too big. Any chance on making it smaller?

OMG these look great
from that pic they look even better than my mohaa ones:eek:
good job;)

misshapen? u think about this helmet on my pic? oh that's just HLMV thing, helmet is standard one just recolored.BTW it's Mercatorn's BoB.
