interesting idea, i kind of agree the colt 45 should be the main NATO handgun, etc

Pretty cool idea that's similar to that guy that changes all your vanilla load outs to NATO gear that I used to like, but this unfortunately breaks ACE injury detection and seems to have some dependencies.

Have you considered giving the regular CSAT infantry the officers uniform? I think it has less armor, and if the future would be anything like the present, they probably wouldn't mass issue high tech projectile resistant uniforms to every conscript.

A new update is out! The big change for this version is that the P07 in now rechambered in 5.7mm and renamed to "P57". All sides now have their own distinct Pistol/SMG calibers. (5.7 For NATO, 9mm for CSAT and .45 for AAF). For the future I shall consider separating the sides into different pbos.

I consider Livonia to be more of a "Fourth Baltic state" than an extension of Poland. The Promet version featured in the mod is made for export and it is not a stretch to think the high tech non aligned AAF would be interested in it. The LDF on the other hand would not be interested in a compicated weapon system that uses a different caliber than their NATO Allies.

Doesn't make sense to swap the promet from LDF as it is a Polish rifle that exists IRL and Livonia is heavily inspired by poland. Would be nice to see a simpler version of this mod to be honest, with just SPARS replaced on NATO and MX for CTRG.

Could you make a loadout mod that only changes the AAF and FIA automatic rifleman to use the LIM-85? And have the ammo crates and vehicle cargos changed to match.

Well my reasoning was that since NATO in this mod still uses 5.56 as main caliber, the LDF should logically use it as well. The AAF on the other hand are an independent faction with closer ties to CSAT, so it makes more sense for them to use a 6.5 caliber gun

Why?
- AAF Now use the new Promet series of assault rifles, swapped with the LDF who now use the old Mk20
- LDF Autoriflemen now use LIM-85, it is the same caliber and manufacturer as their Mk20s

Why should AAF use a new 6.5 caliber gun?

hi,contact is coming,how about replace katiba to ak?I hear the Iran army use katibas and aks weapon for real in wikipekia.
Do you remeber you said that?Now you can change katibas and zafirs to ak12 and rpk12,and change Iran languages to new Russian languages,and the clothes,wow,russian style!I mean,change Iran army's Loadouts to Russian,that's interesting!

No,Iran army use MG3 for machine gun，If you want to use RPKs, then change language to Russian.And don't wait ,The Development version have rpk_12 to use for now.

I was on the fence about it but I think you've convinced me :) It will have to wait until the Contact expansion release though, which will include RPKs

Can you change katiba to ak?Some Iran army use those for real.

hmm, I'm not sure, possibly not. Give it a shot and let me know!

thanks helped a lot, one last question though
if my friend has this mod and he wants to join my LAN server does he need to delete the .pbo as well or no?

You can delete the zsn_gear.pbo in your Arma 3\!Workshop\@ZluskeN Modified Loadouts\addons folder. It contains all the gear changes

how do just change weapon but not the gear? do i need some kind of program?

really like this mod :) taking me a while to adjust to seeing crew helmets so frequently now, but i'll get used to it

This is a terrufic mod, I was wondering if you could do a seperate version of the mod where its single factions as I'd like to use another faction mod for CSAT

That's an interesting idea. While I do have to admit CSAT looks pretty badass with AK-12's it comes back to the original vision thing again. CSAT is supposed to be Iranians and the KH2002 is indeed from Iran. Also there is unfortunately no 7.62x39 AR in the game that they could use.

Very good mod, thanks pleace give CSAT AKs

;)

There is now :) Just remove zsn_gear.pbo from the addons folder

is there a way that i can just change the weapon but nnot the gear?

Nothing big, it alters the default loadout of the new AAF story character (Tan Mk20 and 4-Five handgun)

What's the new update do?

Oh, I see. I misses the point with the Negevs and M14, my bad.
Good f*ckin mod tho!

Well, I don't want to stray too far from Bohemia's original vision.
The FIA were obiously meant to have gotten their guns from Israeli stockpiles,
hence why I gave them Negevs and M14s. It also makes them more unique as a faction.
If you want a resistance faction with AKs, well Syndikat is what you are looking for :)

Very good mod, thanks, exactly what I was looking for :D
But it would be much much better, if FIA had AKs: AKM, AKS-47U and maybe AK-12
And as pistols, the Makarov c:

Good luck! Mods like this make Arma worth while!

Haha, good idea :) I shall do so and we'll see what happens.

I bet you'll get more hits when you mention REPLACEMENT somewhere.

I just experimented a little with your idea and I didn't really like the look of soldiers with black assult rifles. The Gendarmerie already use them. I did come up with a new solution though. Default NATO infantry now use the "khaki" SPARs (They are actually painted in the same color but khaki versions have more black details) and SF use the fully painted "sand" versions. Glad you like it! :)

I really like what you did with this! Could you maybe make the default NATO infantry use black SPARs and the SF to use the camo varients? I love playing the Campaign with this mod on!

Really like this mod, the loadout changes are pretty great
