Canadian faction?

hiddengearz · 02-06-2012, 03:41 PM

Well i was just wondering if anyone thought of a Canadian fraction it would be interesting to have it PR, i have no idea how to do the weapon editing and stuff in arma so ya what do you guys think?

Great idea, I love the canadians! But I think you have to bring something to the table for such a suggestion to go through. Kit plan, potential devs, ideas for maps, something. Similar threads have been closed because OP merely suggested the addition of a faction. Also iirc you have to post a certain amount of times before you're allowed to post a suggestion.

Doesn't have to be in the 'Suggestions' area. 'Community factions / Community modding' will do just fine.

I suggest you start by making a detailed and well organized design plan for the faction, what kind of assets need to be made etc.
Then you should either start working on some 3D Modeling / 2D Texturing tutorials and read up on ArmA II modding.

After you have a basic idea of how to do all this, you should start gathering up a capable team to develop the faction. It's not done overnight, it could take months or even years of semi-active work with an 'indie' team, so if you really want this, you have to be dedicated for it.

I think its doable, the devs need only bring in the "operation north star" addon from the arma community, its on the BIS forums.

Yes, well, if memory serves the devs once stated that they will never use addons or factions made by others than the pr community.

The ONS was terrible. It needed work but it supported nothing. 7th Cav made its own CAD mod for it.
EDIT: I mean it wasn't excellent but it was the first CAD one

And I'd be glad to work on a Cad faction for PR:Arma2.

Any one else want to contribute.

Yeah I'm looking into finding out about it. I got a CryEng 3 project but It can be put on hold for this.

And would you like to lead the Cad in PR:Arma 2 then or?
