Why do the Marine Alphas now have Lanyards? I have an image if you need to see it from a unit board. Its just weird on Marines.

yess will marine uniforms for the dress blues and female uniforms be made? we can use the boat cap, berets and nco stripe on the pants for more accuracy

Will the ASU/AGSUs be added? Including the Boat Cap, and berets, and NCO stripes on the pants for more accuracy?

Hello, I saw you are going to eventually have individual mods for each branch's uniforms, is there an ETA of when this is going to happen?
If possible could my unit put the USMC files in our aux mod until you guys release the individual branches, we need to keep our modlist down.
SebastianDeSaintArabella Nov 20, 2024 @ 8:52am 
Brother, could you bring the classic blue Marine uniform? Maybe a female version of the uniforms as well.

I added you back and messaged you

Hi Walker,

Let us know how you get on with your results; there are a few (many, many) variants of skins and I would ask you only port the stuff A3 content is based on for now. Add me on Steam if you wish.
Ole' Sherm Nov 3, 2024 @ 1:37pm 
So after reading a little bit, so long as the original content is published under APL license, and permissions is given. There shouldn't be any problems. I will keep my eyes open and continue reading into the licensing info but this is what I've collected from reading so far.
Special Operations Group  [author] Nov 3, 2024 @ 1:01pm 
The challenge is if you are permitted to by BIS, i suspect you would be but do check. A mod like CUP needed A3 license to do this; so definitely let me know if you get that sorted because that would be amazing. I fully endorse your efforts to try this (as long as its permitted)
Ole' Sherm Nov 3, 2024 @ 12:10pm 
I think I could do it. Though I would probably have to do a repacking of the textures which wouldn't be a problem for me personally. All I would need is access to the models then selves as well as the base color textures and normal textures. I'm not sure how Arma 3 is set up in terms of how it reads. But I'd be willing to give it a shot. So long as the .fbx files already have the UV there shouldn't really be any problem.

For the models them selves I would have to reshape them to fit the reforger body and armature. Everything else would be easy work.
Special Operations Group  [author] Nov 3, 2024 @ 10:09am 
Precisely, if you can get these models to Reforger, you would have to conference with us but if the quality is satisfactory we could agree to do a reforger release which contains our diffuse/normal work. The UVs should be preserved; though I don't know if BIS will ever release the same models from A3 to A4.
Ole' Sherm Nov 3, 2024 @ 8:07am 
I'd like to say I'm following you.

So you're wanting to be able to use the textures you've already created without having to repack them the way the enfusion engine need to read them correctly?

If I'm wrong than I may need a further explanation of your comment.
Special Operations Group  [author] Nov 2, 2024 @ 4:23am 
Hi Walker,

There will come a time when Reforger is on our chopping block; you will be our first port of call (pun intended)!

Thanks for the offer of help! What would be ideal is if you can get BIS to consider letting you release dress uniforms onto Reforger, vis a vis CUP for A3 but similar quality upgrade for A3 > Reforger. That would catch our eye in discussion more wholy as we'd be able to bring the diffuse maps we have already to the table and support your objectives to develop a more whole dress uniform project on that platform.

Does that make sense? :)
Ole' Sherm Nov 1, 2024 @ 7:48pm 
Would y'all be open to me porting over Navy and marine corps uniforms to Arma reforger?
yara Oct 13, 2024 @ 12:03pm 
Didn't see that part apologies.
Special Operations Group  [author] Oct 13, 2024 @ 11:56am 
Read the comment below it @Yara :)
yara Oct 13, 2024 @ 9:06am 
Hey had a question do you guys have a smaller version for each branch because I love the models but I don't want to install the entire mod because its 10GB so if possible could you make a smaller version for each branch?
Special Operations Group  [author] Oct 9, 2024 @ 9:51am 
Hi @Berzerker the mod will be updated further, yes. Keep up playing with the good stuff we roll out, we will break this mod apart in due time for specific branch folks who want dress uniforms for their own specific USDOD branch aims. Thanks for playing!
BERZERKER Oct 8, 2024 @ 4:54pm 
Awesome mod, I served 26 years Army, I noticed that some uniforms are missing when I now load the my missions. is the mod being updated?
Special Operations Group  [author] Sep 7, 2024 @ 3:36am 
@Sfoda3323

There is a plan for this, we're actually in intense development to create some very interesting expanded elements that will allow MilSim teams to invest more meaningfully in their experience. We will get to the new uniforms and then release a more modular component based release.

Also thank you all for your kind words and support; it has helped us tremendously.
Sfoda3323 Sep 6, 2024 @ 1:44pm 
any update to splitting the mod into sections? as a marine unit i'd love to save my members 8 gigs worth of uniforms they dont need.
[Col.] Richard Crowe Aug 30, 2024 @ 7:07am 
Any chance for cavalry uniforms with stetson?
SuperLunatic Aug 5, 2024 @ 9:56pm 
This is an excellent mod great job.
AliReza Jun 6, 2024 @ 12:40am 
It would be nice if Blue Dress Uniform Tshirt for usmc be added to this great mod
CptXile Apr 14, 2024 @ 4:07pm 
Would be neat if you could place unit patches on them
Special Operations Group  [author] Apr 6, 2024 @ 4:11am 
There are updates coming, but some of our members are going through a bit of a personal crisis so it's stalled. There will be some things being done to facilitate mod separations and expansions. I would strongly recommend looking at @Hugh Mungus's ACEX Arsenal Expansion project; very well done and something we may adopt and integrate officially due to the quality of their efforts.
Comrade__Jesus Apr 4, 2024 @ 1:00pm 
Hey, I've been following the good work you guys have been doing for a while, and have seen a few people ask if you were going to separate this mod into chunks for better storage allocation, any update on a potential ETA, or further development on this project?
Special Operations Group  [author] Mar 23, 2024 @ 2:10am 
@Hugh let's definitely get that going, that would be amazing! Sending friend request!
Hugh Mungus Mar 21, 2024 @ 11:21pm 
@Special Operations Group, I'm unsure if someone has already reported it, but the CW5 rank shows the CW4 rank for the Army dress uniforms.

On a separate note -- I made an ACE arsenal extension for this mod for my unit, so if you would like the PBO to incorporate it in a future update, just let me know and I can send you the file!
Special Operations Group  [author] Mar 16, 2024 @ 11:11am 
still in development, our deepest apologies; one of our devs is going through some life stuff and we're in support at the min.
NCISPhd805 Mar 16, 2024 @ 10:34am 
any word on the update?
Saltwater Cowboy Feb 6, 2024 @ 4:01pm 
I mean I guess you can use them for historical purposes since the last Active Duty WO retired in 1980
Saltwater Cowboy Feb 6, 2024 @ 3:57pm 
FYI we don't have warrant officers in the USAF.
Special Operations Group  [author] Dec 16, 2023 @ 3:41am 
E-1s are plausibly coming, and the UV map is to blame for the wonky stars. It's a BIS issue, but we could attempt to request the model open sourced from BIS to edit it and correct the discrepency. We too feel the pain of wonky general stars.
true_shermanator Dec 15, 2023 @ 8:54am 
Hey, the O10 2nd Star from the neck is a little wonky when compared to the others, which is the only grip I have with it and even that isn't much, I love this mod so much, also is there any plans to add E1s to the list as they are just slick sleeves
Hannibal Nov 9, 2023 @ 8:29am 
Awesome man! I believe there are even Marine officer dress uniforms. White on top I think and either blue or black on bottom with a red stripe.
Special Operations Group  [author] Nov 9, 2023 @ 8:26am 
@664 | Jamie R. Yes, we're working on service bravo and charlies, both in Khaki, White, Blues depending on which branch. We're currently working out the feedback and patching for an update in relevantly soonish timescale. Thanks!
Andre Davis Nov 8, 2023 @ 9:07pm 
Will we be getting the rest of the Army uniforms along with marines and navy? The uniforms that is beige and has the epaulets for the Navy
Special Operations Group  [author] Oct 12, 2023 @ 8:16pm 
potentially, yes.
Hannibal Oct 12, 2023 @ 10:12am 
Marine dress blues eventually?
NCISPhd805 Oct 9, 2023 @ 9:37pm 
Thanks :)
Special Operations Group  [author] Oct 9, 2023 @ 12:55pm 
@NCISPhd805 we got approval to use them, but we're just developing the last of our work (and we're currently underway in building bugfixes / feedback) but yes they are now in :)
NCISPhd805 Oct 9, 2023 @ 9:54am 
any word on the Garrison Cap update yet?
Special Operations Group  [author] Oct 8, 2023 @ 7:08pm 
@KTN64 there will likely be several derivative releases later on, but the work continues first. Thanks!
KTN64 Oct 6, 2023 @ 6:33am 
Would it be possible to separate the mod into 4 mods each grouping the uniforms of a branch.
This mod is very well made but it is very heavy, and I would like to use only the Marines outfits for my missions.
Sorry if there are mistakes, I am French:)
Athena Sep 27, 2023 @ 9:45pm 
@SpecialOperationsGroup honestly that would be amazing, tbh theres already some really good female heads out there. personally ive always used Task Force Timberwolf Female Characters; cuz i can have the same face throughout whatever im wearing ez as.

dont gotta reinvent the wheel, im sure yall could make those work.
Special Operations Group  [author] Sep 27, 2023 @ 11:07am 
@Athena we've seriously considered looking at these possibilities as the game is so male-centric it provides *very* little in the ways of actual, high-quality female specific content. Let's get past the initial requirements and hopefully with a bit of magic we can work in a female subset of matching heads/necks + female dress uniforms. It shouldn't be impossible!
Athena Sep 27, 2023 @ 10:36am 
love the mod, just wish there was female variations :/
Special Operations Group  [author] Sep 21, 2023 @ 11:18pm 
@Nakamura unsure, steam is odd sometimes. The mod is certainly not small enough to fit in 1.8GB.
