Really dig this mod! Any plans for further updates?

@Papa Knawx-_- you can't.

I cannot figure this out for the life of me, can someone create a youtube video explaining how to use this mod on server that do not allow it?

@dwolffy44 all the files are in the mod .pbo, nothing is encrypted

Is there any way to get this for dayz? Or would you be willing to send the files so I can port it to dayz???

Oh, and the server I play on doesn't allow this mod on the server so is there a way to add the tattoo to my character?

Hello, so I would like to use one of the tattoo paa's in your mod for my character but where in the profile config do I place the info? I have the face already from the vanilla skins that I want but would just like the tattoo for the character.

Photoshop. I just take the .paa for the characters, convert them to .png, edit them in photoshop to add tattoos and then convert back to .paa. then they get config'd the way I posted below.

im interested in making my own character mod but i do not know how to edit the bodies for tattoos, any recomendations on where i can go to figure this out?

Worm youre a legend!! thank you!

If you wrote the config to be like

class JSOG01 :WhiteHead_06
{
author = "JSOG";
displayname = JSOG Dude 01";
texture = "JSOGtattoo\data\JSOGFace01_co.paa";
identityTypes[] = {};
textureHL = "Walker\data\bentattoo_co.paa";
materialHL = "\A3\Characters_F\Heads\Data\hl_White_hairy_muscular.rvmat";
textureHL2 = "Walker\data\bentattoo_co.paa";
materialHL2 = "\A3\Characters_F\Heads\Data\hl_White_hairy_muscular.rvmat";
};

it would create an identity named JSOG Dude 01, that would use the face texture you put in the data folder of your JSOGTattoo mod, but would use the tattoo arms/legs etc of the Ben tattoo in my pack.

Yeah easy.
each config is like this

class Walker01:WhiteHead_06
{
author = "Walker";
displayname = "Walker";
texture = "Walker\data\walker_co.paa";
identityTypes[] = {};
textureHL = "Walker\data\walkertattoo_co.paa";
materialHL = "\A3\Characters_F\Heads\Data\hl_White_hairy_muscular.rvmat";
textureHL2 = "Walker\data\walkertattoo_co.paa";
materialHL2 = "\A3\Characters_F\Heads\Data\hl_White_hairy_muscular.rvmat";
};

texture defines the face, texture HL/HL2 defines the body.

Thank you Worm, is it possible to use different faces for each one? I.e can I have Arm tattoos on another face?

You take the Vanilla skin textures and edit them in photoshop. You can find examples in the pbo, as well as the config info needed.

Hey mate, sent you a request just curious how you make these and how to make them work, think would be a cool edition to our unit but wanna make some custom stuff for us

They're identities. Go to your profile and select an identity, or open up Ace Arsenal and apply

how to put a tattoo?

How to put them on the characters ?

Amazing, thankyou

@TheShiniXGAMI oh yeah go for it. I'm not even part of the unit I originally made this for lol. This is just open for anyone to use as they need.

Is it possible i could get your permission to add this to my dedi\unit modpack? I run a 1990s era army infantry unit and tattoos plus DCU would be HOT, but i see you made it for a unit so i thought id ask first instead of being THAT guy

Much appreciated :)

Oh for sure man, one of my favorite mods so far. Good work. Thank you.

Ahhhh okay. Yeah plenty of places all over, plus some I made myself from scratch :)

I was just wanting to see if there was any particular place you got your tats from, but you've answered that question. My intention was to use some of those tattoos as reference for making some artwork.

I think easier question would be "What are you hoping to accomplish" and I could try to be of more help. like were you trying to figure out what tattoos were what identity? or did you want help making your own tattoos.

These tattoos have been collected from all over, some of them made from scratch by me, some of them taken from various sits selling temporary tattoo sleeves, some of them made by taking various pieces of linework art and modifying them into tattoos.

Or rather, is there any particular place you got these tattoos from that I can reference?

@Ephedrinical I'm not sure what you mean

@SKEENBREEN yeah sorry I've just been swamped the past few months but my schedule should be clearing up over the next few months so I'll knock it out and make sure it gets signed properly.

Love the mod, was gonna ask if you have a list of all of the tattoos in png/jpg format, be greatly appreciated.

I am also looking for a signed version that will work for my dedicated server.

You'll find the .bikey here;

Arma 3 Tools > DSSignFile > WormOps.bikey

Hi there, it's me again from a long while ago. I was one of the original people asking about the addition of a server key.

I've noticed you got around to giving it a go! But just to let you know that the .bisign is like the files 'receipt' to say that it is signed and included in the .bikey. As of now we still can't use this on servers due to a missing key component the .bikey file.

In order to let people run it on servers they need all the bisigns for each pbo which you have already done BUT also need a separate folder called 'keys' which will be with 'addons' and 'meta.cpp'. Then place the .bikey that was produced after all the .bisigns were created inside the keys folder.

- PS. Do not confuse this for the .biprivatekey. This is not for sharing.

Hope that helps!

ok

Ace Arsenal will let you change your identity, or just change them from your profile.

Like do we Use the arsenal to add the tattoos
or is it something else?

Install it. Select an identity with a tattoo.

Yo how do i use the mod?

okay yeah absolutely

Thanks for the quick reply. Sorry if I wasn't clear, I'm actually looking to see if you're willing to share the PSD files for some tattoos. All I'd like to do is take some of the ones on the muscular hair and put them on muscular bald skin. Friended you if you want to get into specifics beyond this point. Otherwise it's NBD and thanks for your time!

probably a whole lot easier than getting a PDF from me

@Hytholoday you can extract the skin textures directly from the Arma 3 charactersPBO

Any chance you're willing to pass a raw pdf file or two? Wanting to add a tattoo to a specific arm skin. Thanks.

A couple of people had been asking for a key to be added, finally got around to it.

Nice work, cool FPC tattoos

@Sir much appreciated

@taker yeah go for it

hey i like the work ! keep it up <3

Hello, I would like to use this mod on our server and offer it for download in our sync repo / launcher.
