Nice job. A couple of suggestions:

- You need to put a low-poly version of the vest on your units lower LODs, or at least paint the texture green where the vest should be. At the moment, the vests are totally disappearing at a distance, which looks mighty odd.



- Try "Sapper" or "Engineer" rather than "Sapeer".
- Currently, your units are floating about 5cm off the ground. I would take another look at where the boots join the pants leg, perhaps try to neaten it up a bit (probably a small amount of UV mapping involved) and make the boots touch down.



Question for you:

- How many sections in O2 does each model have?

Keep up the good work and thanks for releasing!

- How many sections in O2 does each model have?

From 6 to 13.

I'm gonna fire all my testers in shit. Thank you a lot.

Nice work TRFS.
These are way better than my guys.

[Clarkey1]

Nice job! Just played around with these guys for about an hour, looking pretty snazzy. Keep up the good work.

[SuicideCommando]

Nice looking units for sure.

I won't steal dcvm's thunder too much, but there's a newer version of these out at Armaholic.

@dcvm - nice job with the legs and distance LODs. I've found another minor bug for you to squish.



Looks like everyone has got obsolete VOG pouch shadows on the legs. Better knock these off.

While we're there, would it be possible to give the VOG pouches to the grenadier and team leader (i.e. everyone carrying a GP by default)? Would add a little more variety to the 'strelki.

Well done once again.

[dcvm]

There are already grenade pouches (used for both hand grenades and grenade launchers ammo) on each unit with 6Sh92 vest. They are worn on the pistol belt. About the shadow bug - i missed it because it is not seen on high and very high shadow settings. Sorry for that.

I've got a really weird issue with the replacement packs for ACE. The models of the medics, machinegunners and the AT Specialists (RPG-7) aren't replaced. All the other units are being replaced just fine.
