Western NBC Gear for DayZ
V1.2 release 21/03/2024 (original release 10/05/2023)

[Announcement]
- Just wanted everyone to know that ALL the content in this mod has been integrated, tweaked and released in a much larger mod pack I have made recently, the TLH Item Pack. This means this mod will not get any further updates, as all updates will be made in the other mod.
THIS MOD WILL STAY UP ON THE WORKSHOP FOREVER for any server owners who just want these items and don't want to bloat their server.

[Changelog]
- V1.2 (21/03/2024)
* Development halted. Content tweaked and re-released alongside other content in the TLH Item Pack.

- V1.1 (19/05/2023)
* Compressed .png files into a .rar file to decrease file size (felt too bloated TBH);
* Cleaned up some code for MOPP Boots and the M10M Gas Mask, no longer needing to have the actual models in the downloaded folder.

[Contents]
- NBC Protective Items:
* MOPP Suit Set in M81 Woodland (inspired by the Desert Storm-era US MOPP suit) reskin for the NBC gear: MOPP Hood (M81), MOPP Overjacket (M81), MOPP Overpants (M81), MOPP Gloves (Black & White variants), MOPP Overshoes (M81 & Black variants);

* Ballistic Helmet recolour in US DBDU (aka Chocolate Chip): MOPP MICH 2000 Helmet (US DBDU);

[Notes]
- The White NBC design was based off of existing PPE coveralls made by companies such as 3M (in case you're wondering);
- The M81 gloves are just the standard, vanilla DayZ, "yellow" NBC gloves since its texture is basically perfect;
- The "Epic" Ballistic Helmet variant/skin has been in the game files for quite some time (years, perhaps). You can find it alongside all other headgear textures in the designated folder in the DayZ Tools P: drive. I claim absolutely NO CREDIT over that specific piece of content/image/IP;
- The "Models" folder includes exclusivly 100% original, vanilla, models taken from the DayZ Tools P: folder, I had to include them so the MOPP Boots (for example) actually worked (as I used the NBC Boots as a base and, through the config file, made the game load the Jungle Boots model, thus having the properties of one item and the appearance of another. I tried to give said MOPP Boots attachment slots but having attachment slots by itself will make an item not give you gas protection even if the rest of the parameters are 100% correct and valid.
- Certain items can't be retextured via config file as the actual colour is baked into the actual model (the .p3d file). To fix that, one would have to unpack/debinarize the model, edit it in an appropriate software program and then pack/binarize it). AFAIK, that is strictly prohibited by Bohemia Interactive's EULA. If one has proof of the opposite (and can give me some guidance on how to do it) I could in the future update this mod with a Grey variant of the Millitary Belt and the Knife Sheath.
- I personally own Beshtiya's Neck Gaiter. That is how I managed to take get pictures of it and edit them in GIMP in order to make said item texture;
- The font used in the ALICE Rucksack is called "D Sert Bold". AI (ChatGPT specificly) was ONLY used to actually find a proper answer and NOTHING else.

[Licensing]
- You can freely add this to your server without asking for permission, just make sure to credit me;
- Repacking IS NOT ALLOWED. If you wish to do it or combine it with something else YOU MUST TALK TO ME BEFOREHAND! I am very open to collaborations, I am making usage conditional because some server owners have a reputation of stealing credit from other people (there's no need to deny someone credit for their hard work).
- I claim absolutely no credit over the original models, textures, images used as a base/reference in order to make this mod. They belong to their specific creator(s). Support them as I have done and continue to do!

[Software Used]
- GIMP;
- WhatFontIs + ChatGPT: Finding the font to use on the letters in the ALICE Rucksack.
