Hey guys, thank you for coming to see my post. Firstly, we are a group of players from China who love this game. The PLA faction is too outdated, so we have started to update the faction. But now we are facing a serious shortage of manpower and lack of particularly proficient modeling experience. May require careful guidance from all of you, thank you very much

Today, our painter is modifying the details of the team's clothing, including armbands, necklines, zippers, and camouflage particles.Make him more realistic. Of course, this is only the first polishing. There is still a lot of work to be done

In addition, if you are a Chinese player with modeling experience, please contact me directly to help us. Thank you very much

Is that the new Xinkong - ?? - starry sky uniform?
Yeah, bulletproof vest should be part of soldier model. 3d model already has geometries that imply a vest on top, you just need to draw it.
Wo hen xi huan bing chilling!

What models are you thinking of? I've got a pretty big backlog right now but I'm down to hear you guys out.
We need the QJY-88 for sure, maybe QBZ-95-1 or QBZ-191 (though I feel like the 191 is too new for PR)
Some red dots for the PLA would be cool, considering how the 95 iron sights leave a lot to be desired

If it is this camo pattern, it might be a bit too modern for PR. We are currently trying to more represent the 201X era and according to wikipedia this one got introduced in 2019?

Looks like it needs a color adjustment? Looks a bit Green

when it needs to be a bit more yellow
Somewhat like this:
Also, once its done it needs some shading. It looks too clean right now, it needs more shadows and maybe even dirt or fades to make the cloth look more alive as if it is being worn.
Aside from that, it looks really good. Great work!

Yes, he appeared at a military parade in 2019. But before that, this kind of disguise was very clich é d, almost unchanged from the game's disguise. Perhaps you could try this disguise? If not allowed, I can make changes. Thank you.

Yes, brother. This is the starry sky, but not the latest version. Thank you very much for your help. I'm going to draw a Bulletproof vest now

Due to our shortage of manpower, we hope to complete the character first. However, the team lacks modeling experience, and KIT accessories may require many models.

I have seen that there are two kinds of bulletproof vests for Model figure. Can I design only one?

I think, we have the heavy and light body armor on all our factions. This only changes the textures/models, but has no impact on gameplay. It adds some variety to the models so not every soldier looks the same. I would say should keep this variety.

By the way, buddy, can this camouflage be used in PR? Because you mentioned earlier that PR may be too modern, but this is an old version of 2019 Starry Sky. In order to prevent the painter from working in vain, I still want to ask clearly. If not allowed, I will change the camouflage.

Hey guys, we have some updates and we have listened to your feedback. Changed clothing color and added stains. But because I have been pushing forward alone in the past two days. It's quite slow. This is the modified test equipment.
Oh, by the way, I've always had a problem. How to export from 3DMAX to a skinnedmesh file. Because the modeling personnel are not here these days. I have been blocked here all along.
The kit equipment has not been re dyed or modified yet. This is just a test

From googling a bit the Type 07 uniforms would suit PR better.
They have been in service since 2007 according to Wikipedia and just now get replaced with the new uniforms. If you guys are up for it, I would suggest doing these instead of the more modern ones.
