Hi all, I've been watching the war in Syria, and during this time I learned to understand in detail in the various forces in this conflict. My favorite map Sbeneh, but I was always very embarrassed camouflage MEC faction(sorry), in the early stages, he was the standard, then it became dark Woodland, but was still very far from the Syrian Arab army camouflage. rPoXoTAiJIo teach me how work with textures and now I want to show you result. (sorry for my english)

It was: ImageImage

It become(WIP): ImageImage

Made you a new thread for this :)
That does look more like the Syrian army indeed, but MEC is just place holder for real SAA. I can assure you that they will have proper uniforms :)
I am not sure what current MEC woodland is based on or if it is fictional. Someone else might know

I think insanity took syrian camo pattern and just gave it a dark green color :p It's not supposed to look like SAA or anything similar neither :p Just a random camo. Like the MEC. Nice job though.

Thank you, very nice to hear that. Work directly over textured took no more than half an hour. when I realized algorithm of actions. I did not draw it, I took the finished texture of the fraction FSA body armor and pants from some two kits with that camouflage. I will improve these skills and do some original texture/models in the future.

Should I here to finish something ? (except fingers)

I actually made some updated mec textures back around august 15. Theyre on my drive somewhere. The ones in game are rather old.

The new ones I did are not based on the SAA, rather, I used reference photos of the Iranian army (as well as some arab armies that use the pattern).
Well done though.
Keep an eye out for the UVs direction in relation to your camouflage pattern. Sometimes it will tilt the pattern vertically.

Not really. We never wanted MEC Woodland to look like SAA. MEC is a unique faction and should look unique.

we/I like you work though. Im sure the Community factions (polish,ukrain,...) are maybe in need of some Help with textures.

Not all stuff exists for SAA yet ;) SAA is a WIP faction that will be added in a future release. Mostly waiting on some maps to be finished and work on some animations. Which we can't do until we finish some more urgent content like WW2 and falklands.

I didn't expect :-( . Maybe I can help you with this faction something? In particular I planned to make the map on fight for Tabka Airbase in 2014. I had to tell about it, suddenly you just do this map :-) Image

Maps are ALWAYS welcome :) Specially 4k maps with combined warfare :D But that's a bit much perhaps for a first map ;) Make sure to make a map topic in the mapping forum so we can guide you wherever you need.
