[New Faction Proposal] New Zealand Defence Force

[HangMan_]

wow most random post ever

also hangman the link take me to Google spreadsheets and not to ur NZ one

ahh thats odd. I'll go through and check that out now. Also to whoever it was who made the comment about the weapons, all the weapons listed on the design plan are used by the NZDF

Edit:Design Plan - This should work i think

[Tonnie]

much better mate... tho you might wanna add abit of detail to the design plan

i will do. At the moment that is really brief. Still a lot of detail being sorted internally. What sort of stuff should i add?

Enjoy

....ummm....

[ChiefRyza]

Lol Gunner! Maybe with the ADF helmet in future it might look a lot more complete. And where did you get the C7 from lol?

[Hauteclocque]

Check in your objects_client.zip, you will find it.

162eRI;1144236']I know nothing about the NZDF but after looking at pictures, except for the helmet, it looks fine!!! The gear looks similar, add the Australian helmet and glasses and you get the same thing that on those pictures?!

But perhaps we can get a better result with an other player model (US or even the new Australian)

Good luck and nice work

The brit one is just too see what it looked like. I am going to try the US models aswell. Personally i think the british stuff suits the kiwis best.

Edit: when we make our own kit geoms i don't plan on having helmets... They just don't fit in with being a kiwi haha. We will be using the Brit player model though. Squaddie09 is making new player models for the Brits so the NZDF (in true NZ hand-me-down fashion) will use the old models if we are allowed. We will however make new kit geoms.

Here is a little Reskin i did for the US Heavy Soldier. Yet to do a kit reskin for the soldier though.

Note: Pictures were taken in Object Colour Mode

looks great. however, I have a thought... most of the places you guys have listed as the NZ army have gone to were not actually the army but the SAS... Why don't you make a NZSAS faction instead? Looks like you've already put work into it but it's just a thought.

I assure you a lot of research has gone into the current deployments of NZDF troops. The places listed, while the NZSAS may have been there, are the locations of NZDF Regular forces deployment. We have several ex and current NZDF soldiers advising on this.

As for creating an NZSAS faction, it is not possible at the moment. PR does not want to have a special forces faction or mod because it does not fit in with the mod. Special Forces allow people to lone wolf and that isn't what PR is about. As much as i would love to see the NZSAS in PR it's not gonna happen.


We may reflect the NZSAS in our sniper kit texture.

k, thanks for the feedback. I was thinking about full squad kind of special forces thing but I guess it wouldn't work well with PR...

Ingame Soldier Skin:



Still working on making kit same colour as vest...

[Gunner_downer]

Can't really see much detail. Any chance of getting a pic closer to him so we can see all his Kiwiness?

In time It's just a little teaser until the skin is perfected. It'll be done over the next few days

[frenzy]

I'd be happy to help out with some modeling

[BlackHawkOp]

Love the Idea!!!! LOVE IT!!!
Hehe. And most of the people saying its too much like the ADF, well, you have your own faction for your country. We're just trying to do the same thing. No, our defence force isn't huge, at all, but.. We're awesome!
