Replacement Pack -Ebud's US SF, Thank you Ebud ;)
« on: 15 May 2007, 12:19:04 »
This pack lets you replace the BIS US SFs with Ebud's retextures.  See below for complete details.

Compatibility:
     The unit replacement pack itself has only been tested on V1.05 german.  It
     should work on any later version.

     The unit replacement pack is compatible with FDF sounds and thepredators
     modern warfare mod (sound only).  For compatibility with other replacement
     packs, you'll just have to try it and see.  This only modifies the models
     and wound textures of the US Special Forces infantry units (not special
     forces), so anything that doesn't modify those should work with it.  There
     are multiple varients of this package included.  Woodland, CQB (green
     suits with black vests and helmets), and desert.  You can only use one at
     any one time.

Multiplayer:
    Should work fine as it's purely client side, although it may give a cheat
    notice if the server doesn't have it as well.

Hosting:
     You can host this anywhere you want, but if you let me know via PM on the
     BIS forums, I'll add a link in the download thread and let you know if I
     patch it.  I'd also prefer if you included a link back to this thread, as
     this is where I'll be posting updates, answering questions etc.

Notes:
     This pack deliberatly does not modify anything about the units except for
     the models and wound textures.  It will not affect game balance in any
     way.  It is strictly visual.

     When using this pack, you can still place Ebud's SF's as normal, and they
     will have any and all properties associated with them.

     If you're using this pack and build a mission, the mission will not
     require Ebud's SF's or this pack to be installed by the end user unless
     you place the addon units as stated directly above.

     This pack *requires* you download Ebud's "EBU SOCOM v1.4 (Generic United
     States SF)".

     The thread for Ebud's SF's can be found at:
     http://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin....t=60424

     I can only support my pack itself, not Ebud's units.  Please do not bug
     Ebud for help with this pack.


Installation:
     1: Browse to your arma directory (wherever arma.exe is located).

     2: Unzip the contents of the replacement packs folder to your arma
     directory. Be sure to keep folder structures intact.

     3: Put ebu_soco1.pbo from Ebud's SF's in:
          c:\yourArmaDirectory\addons\

     4: Create a new shortcut to arma, or modify your existing shortcut.

     5: In the target box, add *EITHER*:
          A: -mod=@CSL_EBU_US_SF_CQB_REPLACEMENTS
          B: -mod=@CSL_EBU_US_SF_DESERT_REPLACEMENTS
          C: -mod=@CSL_EBU_US_SF_WOODLAND_REPLACEMENTS

          Only add one of these to your shortcut at any particular time.

     If you already have a mod, running using the mod switch, seperate your mod
     options with a semi colon.  Do no use multiple -mod commands.  For
     example:
     -mod=@ModWarSound;@CSL_EBU_US_SF_WOODLAND_REPLACEMENTS

     Your target line should look something like this, depending on the options
     you have enabled:
     C:\games\arma\arma.exe -nosplash -mod=@ModWarSound;@CSL_EBU_US_SF_WOODLAND_REPLACEMENTS

     6: (Optional) Put the contents of the test mission folder in your arma
     user missions directory.


Version History:
V1.0:
     Release

License:
     If you wish to use Ebud's SF's in any way, you must conform to *his* requirements.

     Strictly for what I have done:
     Unlimited rights (including editing and rereleasing) so long as it's non-
     commercial and adheres to the BIS terms of use.  Any derivative work

     user has.
