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.

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.
