Not sure if its just me, but the woodland MARPAT looks like AOR2. Maybe tone contrast or tone down a bit? Not really sure.

it ain't force recon without the cwu 27p:

Are nomex suits actually what they use on ops? I thought they just used standard MARPAT uniforms with extra "guchi" helmets, vests and weapon mods?

Unless you mean something like this:

They generally use whatever high speed gear that suites them lol, but j've even seen regular grunts using nomex flight suits occasionally. Definitely saw recon guys wearing nomex before so I would suggest maybe having direct action versions using it along with plate carriers and "guchi" helmets and having long range patrol guys just using MARPAT and chest rigs or something.

Yeah Ive seen pics of regular Marines using Nomex, apparently its better than their standard MARPAT uniforms and more comfortable? Its rather interesting and I certainly like to find out more.

Cant say from first hand experience. but I was always told by my seniors that the flight suits were way more comfortable in places like Iraq because they breathed better than our regular digi's and they would usually wear less clothing underneath the flight suits. where as with MARPAT we're still expected to wear things like belts, rank insignia, skivvies, and boot bands regardless of whether or not we're humping around ridiculous amounts of gear. Not to mention that until the last five or six years our MARPAT uniforms were not very flame retardant. so early Iraq and A-stan marines would probably opt for Nomex for that reason as well. Not as necessary today because now Marines get issued fire resistant cammies that also have additional pockets and reinforced belt loops on the trousers and blouses that are actually designed to be worn with body armor, along with cold weather gear if necessary, prior to deployments.

By the way AngelWingGamingJacob if you need pics of our Flame resistant cammies I can try to take some for you, wont be pretty though as they've been packed into a bag for a few years and Im not exactly a photographer by any means.

I will take your ideas into consideration but IMO as lead texture artist of this mod i will most likely stick with the NATO Fatigues, mainly due to honor the Sabre USMC units who were IMO the best USMC mod in early A3. I will confirm some things and hint at others.

Also i have not started the FR units as of yet, so i may listen to some of you for the FR guys

And on the part of the MARPAT woodland, The template i used made it darker and also MARPAT is darker than AOR 1 so this looks about right, but i may keep it that way, may not.

and if you want reasons why i most likely will stick to NATO fatigues

-Simple to retexture

-Fits time

-Look good

-All other USMC mods other than 1 use it

M9 has been made an textured, thinking of custom sound

SMAW has been made and slightly enhanced

AH-1Z is possible

MATV is confirmed

LVSR is confirmed

UH-1Y is possible

RHIB is possible

M1A2 Will happen once we get a vehicle expert to assist in setting up

Also a few hints at later projects i might work on with Nunez (atin)

Lone Survivor team

possible A3 era Pacific theater (USMC vs China and North Korea) with a possible fictional betrayal from the russians (Blufor Russians...for once) and maybe a custom map if i can find out how to make them.

and a little addon, The story of why the Russians are good in this one is because of Irans sudden outburst against Europe and Chinas attack on the Philippines went against a fictional pact that russia was the biggest contributor in.

Also the A3 Pacific Theater i talked about will be a different mod if i decide about it, and will not feature a Campaign, but instead will include a video file Telling the story from a fictional character, grandson of Skyes from A2 Named Bryce "Blazer" Skyes (Voice actor might be me might not)

and i planned ahead some characters in case of it

USMC

SGT. Bryce Skyes

Im going to record and later upload a video of me and atin doing a Black Hawk Down-esque mission where 4 MARSOC units and 2 NATO pilots survived a ghosthawk shot down

I will be taking control of the crashed units. while Atin is a quick reaction force sent in to save the crew in the town of Zargabad, which he may post up on his channel. so if he does both perspectives will be linked in this thread

The original reason was that during the early few years of iraq when HMMWV's were getting hit by IED's, sometimes they would burst into flames with the up armored doors trapping marines inside the vehicle, even if you did get out the original marine cams had a high nylon content so they would often melt to your skin in the fire...

So they started ordering nomex flight suits through supply stores (which had nomex/kevlar flight suits on hand for pilots) which are highly fire retardant.

Eventually after a few years a new combat uniform called FROG was produced which is moisture wicking, antimicrobial and fire resistant properties which is now issued to all combat troops (The way to tell the difference between FROG and Utility uniforms is the thigh pockets on the pants and shirt is in the under armour style with shoulder pockets, similar to the NATO A3 uniform.)

Im going to re-add the moisture pads so the units are wearing the FROG-style, because i removed them after looking at my schools ROTC uniforms, but yea i did research.

Also i am going to completely redo the Desert MARPAT texture because i think that pattern i have is not actually MARPAT.

little hard to tell seeing youre texture quality is on low in the first screenshots but either way, i've got 3 different templates for Marpat from 3 different sources and they're all different shades... the only way to be sure is to find a pattern with the EGA printed on it but even then differences in lighting will change the colours anyway...

Not to mention the confusion AOR causes...
