Description
In the vanilla version of Arma 3 Contact DLC, the camouflage for the LDF and Spetsnaz factions look too futuristic and unrelated to the camouflages of today.. The LDF's pattern is particularly extreme with triangles of the same shapes meshed together. For such a small nation, a pattern such as this I feel is not fitting nor looks particularly appealing. As for Spetsnaz, the Taiga camo is too close in style to other digital camos such as EMR and has a color palette that is atrocious both in Russia and in Livonia. Therefore, I have decided to create a mod which rectifies this potential problem.

Arma 3 Contact Redux aims to do this by retaining the thematic direction that Bohemia Interactive intended for (Futuristic weapons and equipment) while introducing a far more realistic camouflage and color palette for weapons, equipment, clothing and vehicles. My choice for this mod was to use the Wz. 93 Pantera camouflage for the LDF and a Woodland camouflage for their vehicles. For Spetsnaz I chose to use Ataka for their Gorka suits along with EMR for the older weathered variant. I chose this as I believe that a new adoption in camouflage would have to be different in nature to the previous to justify its introduction, along the lines of the adoption of EMR to supersede Flora. This mod works as a replacer.

Please feel free to to give feedback and suggestions, along with using the assets in whatever way you see fit. It's what makes modding great after all!

@[ACPL] Jon We gonna go back to the WZ. 68 and the wz. 67 helmets with glued on amazon rails and NVG slots, cause that's cheaper, and the army likes the cheaper :v

Pretty cool, thanks!


Seba, wanna bet what camo our great nation will be using in 2035? :D

@PanSeba Livonia isn't Poland though, it's a small nation adjacent to Poland. Adoption processes for camouflage often take a long time. Lampart has been tested since 2015 yet has had no actual update in terms of being adopted or not. It's a long process for Poland, so for a smaller less prosperous nation like Livonia, I can see them sticking to their equipment for longer periods of time and then updating when enough advancement has been made. Poland doesn't seem much closer to deciding if it wants Lampart or not either, it is totally plausible they stick with their current camo pattern up until that date.

it's 2035 and Poland still uses wz. 93, checks out.

I know work is already done, but I think for the 2035 setting, a Polish experimental camo "Lampart" would be more fitting

I find these a lot more realistic and my immersion when playing Contact has improved as a result! Thank you very much!
