If the UH1Y is modeled it would need a lot more than just a reskin to look like the Griffon.

Regarding your earlier question. The Canadian faction forums (like the Israeli and German ones) were taken 'behind the scenes' as of their integration into the mod.
Sorry for the mix up, I was sure that the UH1N was the Venom. Anyways, The CH-146 looks much more like the UH1Y than the UH1N (4 blade rotor and also that extension on the top). If there is a CH-146 or UH1Y model in the works I would like to skin that for the CF/USMC. If not, I will use the one I took screenshots of as a place holder for my map.

For the CF forums, that's to bad, I really would like to see the old post ... could you just move them to a other section and lock them?

Cheers,

Nix

Perhaps the German Huey is closer to the CF griffon?

As it has been said, no need to work on a Griffon reskin, there is one in the work already. (and someone has already been assignated to the texture, so Nixon, you'll have to do something else. :-P )

I'll try to find some hours to work on the kits.

Ah, and about the new model, there are slide doors on it. ;) (and even gun mounts so that we can put FNMAGs on it when the weapon is done)

We have actual griffon, no need to search for walkarounds :p

It's closer to the Vietnam era Huey since it's the single turbine version. The Griffon is definitely closer to the UH1Y (Venom) which is not in PR yet, thats why I took the UH1N (Dual turbine like the UH1Y) but still differs for some parts like the rotor (which I changed) and the top part of the engine.

Btw if you guys need to have something skinned for the next version of PR contact me :)

Nix

I think that the current USMC helicopter can be a good temporary solution to the Griffon. The German Huey just wouldn't do though.

Thanks to [R-DEV]Hauteclocque we now have the new kitgeos. Still a WIP, but I am looking forward to releasing the new skins for the next patch of PR :D

The second is my first map called ?Operation Homefront?. The PLA is invading Canada on the west coast (in BC) to get to the tar sands in Alberta. But first they need to get a hold of a port and an airfield. The PLA container invasion fleet is just off the coast and the Canadian Forces need to push back the attack. Since this my first map I am editing one of my favorite vanilla maps: Operation Harvest. I am including some new elements to make it my ?dream map?, still in very early stages, will post a proper thread when I get more work done.

Now the screenshots:

Well that?s all for me now,

Sweet of you to do all this, it looks sweet. However im kinda stumped on where that is on the west coast as the only flat area on our coast is the lower mainland (Vancouver), and sorry to say but Van doesnt look at all like that, but have fun making it.

Never mind that I scraped it and I am working on a Taliban map now.

Praises for the new kits should be given to [R-DEV]Hauteclocque, he's the one working on them and I skin them. This is a real team effort! :D

thats how we roll baby :cool:

re that homeland map though, have you kept the files? can always be converted into a fictional location or something

No I did not, was an edit of a vanilla map anyways.

Nice work guys on the textures :)

I also think it was a good move to scrap that homeland map, the concept didn't look that good to me tbh and your new map concept looks much better :)

I have absolutely no idea why that happens. The move seems detrimental to productivity.

Ever thought about doing Victoria? theres a navy harbour there, and a lot of cool features, old war bunkers incase the japenese attacked, definately something to look into.

Because the mod and its core team members are all integrated into the mod/team, it is then officially part of the mod and the team works on the core stuff, thou like anything, we always allow people to work on stuff in the community modding forums like here which is where we get most of our team members from :)

Its no different for British, PLA etc stuff being made for the mod.

i think if your going to be making a canadian map, then you should make it way up north, when i get back from vacation i intend to start learning how to make maps, so i could probably give you some help in the future. also canada just started a project for stealth snowmobiles which would be cool to see in a future release :P
