JSDF Overhauled

I quite like the JSDF. They have unique gear and vehicles and you don't usually come across them in Arma so I took this as an opportunity to learn more about Arma modding.

This mod is a personal project of mine which takes the two biggest JSDF mods and tries to make a playable faction out of them by tweaking and improving the quality of life and balance, while also adding more content.

Please remember this mod is a work in progress.


JSDF: Overhauled changes several things on the SDF mods listed as dependencies. A fully detailed changelog will be linked below, but these are the highlights:

-Added ACE compatibility to some items and vehicles.
-Changed Type 64 and 89 Rifles' reload animations.
-Fixed the carry capacity of some backpacks.
-Added TFAR compatibility to radio backpacks. (ACRE is not planned, but may be added in the future).
-Renamed some items to have clearer names and descriptions.
-Restored hidden vehicle components, available through the virtual garage.
-Added new vehicle and uniform textures.
-Added several vanilla retextured items.
-Rebalanced vehicle weapons. Some vehicles now use similar vanilla weaponry.
-Added a new faction, mirroring the vanilla unit structure.
-Added flags and banners.

(Note that some of them might not be specific to this mod, and I wont be able to fix them!)

LAV: Smoke dispensers only work on recon variant. This is due to how the eventhandlers for the license plates work. FIXED
LAV: Characters in rear seats clip slightly out of the car. (Can't fix, model issue)
LAV (M249): Gunner can clip out of the car if he turned in while aiming the turret up. (Cant fix. Model issue)
LAV (M249): Driver can only switch seats using ACE interaction menu. (Regular LAV does not have this issue, I don't
know how to fix it currently)

Type 89 IFV: Smoke dispensers don't work. (Can't fix. Original mod is configured incorrectly. Mod author notified) FIXED

Type 87 RCV: Smoke dispensers don't work. (Can't fix. Original mod is configured incorrectly. Mod author notified) FIXED

UH-1J/UH1J (MG): Vehicle will be damaged and explode if gunner fires 50.cal aiming directly down while landed
(Can't fix, Original mods are configured incorrectly) FIXED

Most helicopters are unusable with AI: Vehicle will keep climbing indefinetly. (Cant fix. Original mods are configured incorrectly)

Most aircraft's cockpits are very low resolution. Still, vehicles have functional countermeassures, weapons and sensors. They might not look pretty, but they are functional.

Planes don't have ejector seats (Not something I can fix)

F-2 GPS and Radar panels are bugged.

MH-53: Flares don't fire with a lot of force (Can't fix, original mod did not have flares so I don't think the helicopter was supposed to have them) FIXED

Type 10 Tank: Commander viewport and 50.cal are not propperly syncronized. Compass bearing aligns with turret
and not with viewport. (Can't fix, mod is configured incorrectly. Mod author notified)

SPAAG: Radar won't spin when on, must activate manualy via action menu. (I'm working on it)

Flashlight on Type 64 Rifle floats. Model issue, can't fix.

Type 01 L-MAT AT Launcher allows the use of Titan AA missiles. (Intentional)

110mm LAM (Panzerfaust 3) allows the use of vanilla RPG 32 missiles.

Type 20 Rifles don't have suppressor or bipod slots. This is intentional. The original rifle is not set up propperly for them.
