Even our strix is wearing a monocle now...

Here we go:
OFP had glasses, ArmA didn't. And now ArmA2 provides us finally again with the abillity to put some nice glass-thingies ontop of our noses.

So some people among AT had the idea of adding some precious new glasses to ArmA2. Since adding only glasses wouldn't be enough for us, we thought of some nice, additional stuff, like monocles, chinese beards and paper bags. Overall we've added 13 new "glasses".

Here a full list of new stuff we've added:
Sunglasses (Black)
Sunglasses (Orange)
Sunglasses (Pink)
Sunglasses (Light Blue)
Sunglasses (Dark Blue)
LHD Glasses (original done by BIS; just unlocked)
Monocle
Gag glasses
Contact lenses
Nose ring
Chinese stereotype beard
Beard
False beard
Paper bag

Yes, that stuff can be yours. Go grab it!

Main intention of this nutcase addon is to show you how to make PROPER glasses, beards, hats and other stuff that is placed in a face. This particular addon of Armed Tactics is, as usual, not really serious meant, but this one ought to help you creating own glasses. Therefore this Addon is not binarized.

Wow, great idea. That looks really cool.
And yet another cool feature that BIS has introduced to make this game even better. :D

[MehMan]

love the paper bag!

[Binkowski]

Yes! I love the paper bag! Great work, simple & creative.

[ParaGraphic L]

Okay I believe this is going to be done a lot in the next months by (starting) modders!
Great idea! :D

How does this work online? Does everyone need this addon, if you don't have it will
the glasses and such just don't show or does it give an error?

[Scruffy]

I would guess it's the same as with facepacks:
Everyone that uses the addon will see them, whoever does not (but why would anyone not use this :D) will just not see them without any errors.

[DaveP]

Neat, hockey mask/bank robber rubber mask time?

[That guy]

I guess it is possible for your avatar to ware a balaclava with out having to go through that crappy face texture thing :D

I would personally go with the paper bag, or the marx glasses (always wanted a pair of those with ballistic lenses :p) but it would be odd to have them clipping through the head gear

awesome addon

[DaveP]

Gasmasks would be pretty tacti-cool

[TeRp]

lol the paper bag is hilarious. love it!

[Cougar]

This stuff is mint! :D Very cool :P

Seems like a good way to add a scuba mask, especially if that can be removed by script later in the mission.

Yep. Only "problem" is that glases is removed when using nvg.

[Shadow NX]

Very nice idea, i like this addon.

Any chance of a Bandit like mask in a possible update?

Quick question for you guys. I understand ARMA2 has glasses to choose from now - does it also have some faces with camo? Thinking stock faces instead of using face.jpg. Would be nice online where servers dont allow face.jpg.

Cool little addon btw! Will be used 19th -> :)

[Scruffy]

@<hidden>: When BIS will release the new tools and unbinarized models it will be easy to add the one from the NAPA guys.
Currently no updates are planned, but maybe Mondkalb will get bored and does some more models. But now everyone who can model a bit should be able to make his own glasses. A thread similar to the faces one for Arma 1 and a community pack that collects everything would be great I think.

@<hidden>: As far as I could see in the config every face (thats 117 if I remember correctly) has 6 camo entries. They just don't show in the list, but try Face01_camo1 to Face01_camo6

[Alex72]

Oh. Well i dont have ARMA2 yet. Just thaught BIS this time added some nice camo faces to choose from since they know its very popular. Nice of them to add camo faces for the AI as ive seen on screens, but for MP it would be very nice since some (many) servers ban extra files as sounds and face.jpg.

But the files you saw - can they be activated somehow? Maybe BIS can make them visible in the list? This would be fun for many especially good for PvP'ers that want to hide good from eachother. :)

Alex

[NeoArmageddon]

They can be activated, but its much easier to unpack the .pbo and but a good camoface in your playerfolder.

[waffen]

hey AT guys, just had to sign on and post

THANK YOU, awesome stuff

[Eggnogg13]

Could you maybe add a blacaclava in the next upadate?

I frikken' love those.

[Alex72]

They can be activated, but its much easier to unpack the .pbo and but a good camoface in your playerfolder.

Yep understand that. However my posts here hopefully hints to BIS to activate some camo faces as it is a bit better for players that dont hang around forums and dont know about face.jpg etc. I think new players etc would think its a "cool thing" to have camo faces, and lastly they would be acceptable on all servers - face.jpg is not. ;)

Dont know the reason glasses were added but not camo faces.

Alex

[Ben]

So. Are you taking suggestions for another pack?

You can change the entry in your PlayerName.ArmA2Profile by hand. First choose your face in the game, then open the file and change

class Identity
{
face="Face103";

to face="Face103_CamoX" where X can be 1-6.
A small addon to make them available in the preview would help I guess, I might get that done over the weekend. After that you can start without the addon, it's just to make it easier.


Edit: Scratch one! Just use this library made by ArMaTeC (http://www.armatechsquad.com/ArmA2Class/Faces/) to choose your face.


Edit 2: Just to make this clear: You will not see the face in your user settings ingame and if you change anything in there (glasses, voice, etc.) it will revert to a default face so you need to change the .arma2profile file again!
But you will have the camo applied ingame, just test it in the editor.

Actually I don't think so. This addon was a simple "Proof of concept". Sorry.

[NeoArmageddon]

NOOOO! We need an AT Glasses Pack 2!

With new Hats and crazy glasses! :yay:
And than Armed tactics will rule the world! Muhahaha!

[Odjob]

The paperbag really adds to the realism.. :D

[CameronMcDonald]

I suppose this could probably be extended to gasmasks or other interesting faceware-ery.

[wipman]

Hi, gas masks or some hockey mask "jason style" will be pimp, aside of more modern glasses
instead those "damn cop" glasses, oackley, evanei.. that kind. Let's C ya

[GoOB]

Give us some Wayfarers for that irreplaceable 'nam vibe :cool:

[Feint]

Did anyone ever make any OFP glasses or similar facial addons that can be converted over to Arma2? These are good as a proof of concept, but I'm looking for something like the Oakley's that the Shaw character from Arma1 is wearing.

[redrumNL]

hehehe looks funny,
But come on maybe something serius to? Like glasses with bouncing eyeballs on it?
